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!

I do it

  Since he could talk he has had a certain Independence about him. "I do it". I loved it when his little voice would say those words. Even though he sometimes had no clue what he was doing. Or he wanted to lend a helping hand with me, I have always admired that he was a hands on learner .     Now that he is 4 he really doesn't need much help getting dressed. I still stay present just in case he needs my help. "I do it all by myself" are the words he says now. It makes me a little sad that he doesn't need me for everything now.     "I'm hungry" are words I hear alot from him. So I tell him find something to eat and I will help you make it. I let him put the snack ideas together. He can open the fridge. He can open the pantry. So he can grab whatever his little heart desires.     Here he is with minimal help from me making a peanut butter sandwich. "Watch me mom" are the words I hear when he does something a...

Where did September GO?!

My son was looking at the calendar the other day. Trying to count how many days to Halloween, he turns around and looks at me and says...."Where the heck did September GO?!" I laughed and said you are too young to worry about where the time is going! But yea I have no idea where it went. It seems like my post here lately is dwelling on where all the time went. Its definitely going by fast! And it doesn't help when every other post on Facebook is counting down to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! Geez people can we just get thru the first 6 weeks of school?! Speaking of school i have a a rant about the system. Or the lack there of anyway: I remember being disciplined in school. If I broke a rule I was sent to the office where my mom was already waiting for me. (Didn't help that she worked at my elementary school) but still. So not only did the principal lecture me about how talking in class and being disruptive was disrespectful, I had to get an ear full from...
