Hello 2016

WHAAAA??!

its 2016 already and tomorrow is March. wtf?

sometimes i am pretty badass. well 99.9% of the time i am. then there is that 1% that knocks the wind out of me every few years. every 4 years to be exact i get sick. and i don't mean a sniffle here and there, i mean i get siiiiick!
fortunately i got sick both times in february while the hubby was home. bronchitis knocked me down for about 4 days then 2 weeks later pneumonia knocked me out for another 4-5 days. Goodness right?
yea, goodness. i am glad he was home both times so i could get some much needed rest and stay bubbled up away from the kids so they didn't catch it. nothing worse than mom being sick! am i right, moms?
cause lets face it....we are ALL busy. We all work hard, we all raise kids, we all have dinner to get on the table and errands to run, and laundry to do, church, and friends to stay in touch with, and work, and homework to lend a hand with, pets to feed, a husband to love, kids to raise, bills to pay.
we are ALL busy!
hell i am so busy i logged on to blog in october 2015 with the intentions to do this at least 3 times a month and tomorrow is march. march 2016! did i mention that already?! see i am so busy i dont even have time to capitilize my words and probably use correct punctuation. yea its bothering me too, but what can i say? I AM BUSY! just like you are!
today i have time to sit and catch up on the blogs. yes blogS. i have 3 to keep up with. i am working from home today since the car is in the body shop. (even badass moms get into fender benders)

lets kick off march and hope it flies by as quick as the first part of the year has. i am ready for summer and lazy days by the pool. i am ready for summer camps, concerts in the park, hanging out with friends at the creek and leaving the busy school year behind for a few months. just for a few months as we all do like routine around here.



happy monday!

WE GOT MARRIED!!

My dear-to-my-heart little sister got married. September 4, 2012. To the man she met 6 years ago to the date. Love stories like that make me smile. And all though she was hesitant 6 years ago when i twisted her arm enough and forced her to set up a MySpace, in no time she met her husband. So I like to secretly think I had a hand in all this. After all the whole MySpace thing was my idea ;) Tim and Jennifer,          I am proud of the two of you. You are both very dear to my heart and always will be. Jennifer, you already know that you are the best little sister this girl could ask for. Tim, I have liked you from day one. And over the years I have grown to love you. You are the best person in the world for my sister. (after all she was able to avoid alot of crazies online after y'all met) HA HA!! I wish you guys many many many years of happiness! You guys are amazing together. And the best aunt and uncle to Jaxon. Love always!! Jessica

All is well...and everyone is home...

Jynx came home today. He has a cast over his pins. They ended up finding more wounds that needed stitches so he has 3 different sets of stitches on his leg and his paw is still really swollen. He is on 3 different pain meds as well. And we are still baffled as to what happened. Josh went to let him and the other dog out and came in for maybe 20 minutes...went back outside and Jynx was hurt. We have searched the backyard and garage but can not figure out what has happened. So who knows. Jynx isn't saying either! It was bad enough to have caused some small places to stitch and 6 pins worth. Its really sad. His little throat is dry from where they had the tube in his throat so he cant really whimper. And the other bad thing is, is we were going to take him to get groomed and now we have to wait 8 weeks! O well. I'm really glad that he is ok and it wasn't AS bad as it could have been and hes home now. Thank goodness for puppy insurance!!!!

When I was your age....

It's funny because I ran across this article about the gadgets kids have these days and the things they will not know existed....or even how they worked. A month or so ago I say to Josh..."Kids these days will never know what watching a TV with antennas will be like or how to rewind a cassette tape." Part of my childhood we had a TV we turned on with a set of pliers and would have to adjust the antennas depending on what channel we were watching out of the 5 we had. Caller ID didn't exist. Walkmans were huge!! You researched homework in an encyclopedia. You recorded shows on a VHS. There was actually a time before "reality TV". You never had the want or need to know what your friends were doing every minute of their day. You actually had to remember someones phone number. Neat Handwriting. Swimming pools with diving boards. Waiting for the #1 hit in the movies to make it to TV. Hershey bars in silver wrappers. Having to manually unlock car doors. Playing ou...
