I’ve been bad about writing here, spending too much time doing nothing on facebook… avoiding cleaning, and getting sucked into new books… But my sanity is slipping again, so I need to start writing before my husband trades me in for wife number four…

Anyone with two walking toddlers knows that a queit house usually means trouble! As I turned the corner there he [...] I hate to admit it, especially since I was oh so not happy about being stationed here, but I can honestly say that I like Texas. Fort Hood is huge!

It was Sunday. I was vacuuming. [...] Henry could not wait the 5 minute drive back home, he wanted an oreo so bad! And he made such a mess!
Best and Worst Cities for Families - Forbes
Where does your city rank?? “When I shop, the world gets better, and the world is better, but then it’s not, and I need to do it again.”
“They told me I was a valued customer, now they send me hate mail!” Confessions of a Shopaholic, so me lol I have no doubt that summertime is officially here. Every year it seems that our house has the same infestation occur during these hot months of summer, signaling the season is upon us. An out-of-control outbreak that hits far and wide, so be prepared! Be on the look out! The breed that has taken over our house is approximately 12-inches long. I have seen them in a wide variety of colors, red, blue, yellow, pink, green, orange, purple…The colors are actually kind of pretty, almost shimmering. It is what happens next that is so scary! (Please be warned; what I am about to describe is graphic.) There are these even bigger creatures that come along. I believe that they are attracted to the multi-colors. They rip off the tops-with their razor sharp teeth-spitting the ends out onto the ground. Then they proceed to suck the very life out of the once colorful bodies-leaving behind a shell. If you look closely you can see a trace of the color that once was. The big creatures then disappear, leaving behind a trail of empty remains to infest our home and yard! Everywhere I turn I see these vacant remnants; a constant reminder of what has occurred. GHASTLY! Be warned, Mamas! This could occur in your household, at any time. Sadly, maybe it already has…HUGS. If you have children and Popsicles then the chances are highly likely that this infestation has already arrived at your home! May the force be with us all… Your bathing suits blow, and we as women know it. And now, we want you to do something about it. Don’t blow this off as ‘Oh she must need to loose wieght’ or ‘maybe she’s older then our target audience’ or the crappy line of ‘Oh she just has bad body image/ self esteem’. I can assure you, that that is not the case. The problem, my dear friends is your crappy, badly designed swim apparel. I cannot stress to you how little the percentage of women there are that actually look like models. So, we are here to ask you (the purveyor of our swimwear needs) to make something a little more flattering for the rest of us. And I promise you if you make it, we will buy it. Because (brace yourself, you might fall over for this one) we WANT to look GOOD. Fortunately for you we have already done a little test sampling for REAL live breathing women who would LOVE to buy your swimwear, and what they would like to see in a bathing-suit, for them. The results were eerily similar all around which I think should be a huge wake up call, to you. 1)… Henry just noticed that Jessie is in her swimsuit. He’s now stripping! Yup my boy is running through the house, pulling off his diaper, his shirt and now jumping up and down in complete madness. Oh no, he’s spotted her, holding the sunscreen. He runs, and tries to hide under the table with [...]
Its summer, hotter than hell and all of my children are of course home. You’d think that this would be a happy time. No school, no homework, just summer time fun. Well if you are that delusional to think that is what summer entails you are in for a shock. Summer in south Alabama is HOT. My kids still have school work to do. Yes I am the evil stepmother who makes the older kids do workbooks and read all the time! What fun for me? Is an hour a day to much? Maybe it’s not enough. Maybe I should home school them all them summer and do real work! I have my chocolate escape waiting for me, but do I dare turn to it before noon? I think I must wait. It will go very well with my evening glass of Pino Nior…. As they run through the house chasing the Bitty, my oldest plows right into the wall, and of course the rest follow. I guess they all forgot why there is no running in the house. Yet I refuse to move, I will not investigate this. I will not yell at them for injuring themselves, I will do nothing but sit here and count to 10 before I lose what little sanity I have left. I will sit quietly with Eleanor and enjoy my youngest, my good quiet happy and still innocent child… Actually, those numbers are being too optimistic. I know, deep down, that the risks are much greater; my chances of survival are probably less than 5 %. Who am I kidding?-the likelihood of me walking away unscathed is almost non-existent. Those are the cold, hard facts. And, yet, I must go on. I must throw myself into a path of danger; knowing the probable outcome is not good. Realizing that my health and well being are at stake…I will go forth with my fate. You see, I am hungry-and thirsty. While I could just turn to my beloved-chocolate-and eat without the need of any cooking or eating, drinking paraphernalia, I was hoping for a little healthier option to start my morning. If I am able to walk away, a breath still escaping my lips, I will indeed lovingly hold my sweet very soon… I am about to open my kitchen cupboards. The cupboards that have been half-hazardly stacked, precariously teetering on the edge of destruction by young hands. Ironically, these same children have been tested “gifted” by the school system; and, yet, they can not seem to figure out that the small bowls and cups go inside the big bowls and cups, not vice versa. And if something is square then it is best to pair that item with something that is square, not circular. My husband swears he did these same activities with them as babies with their shape sorters and cup stackers! They passed with flying colors way back when… I realize that it would just be easier to put the dishes away myself, but I am trying to train my children to be responsible; a positive addition to society. So, Cupboard Organization 101 continues…Sigh. My husband (with a straight face) suggested that I simply trace the shape of each item in its proper placement to help them in this endeavor. I will let you imagine what my response to this helpful suggestion was. May the force be with me… TIMBER!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a public service announcement to mothers everywhere. Now that the weather is warming up, chances are highly likely that you will be opening your windows to bring about a bit of solace from the heat. Be alert; your window screen is the only barrier between YOU and the OUTSIDE world… Be warned mothers! While you may be totally justified at raising your voice to an extreme level; a decibel that in fact is absolutely needed to penetrate the “walls” you are trying to communicate with, you should be aware that what might be acceptable previously in the privacy behind a closed window, may possibly sound like a psychotic episode now to someone passing by your house. I would like to offer some alternatives to save you some unneeded embarrassment and having to explain yourself to Mr. Police Officer who might unexpectedly stop by to check on the noise level coming from your household. You really don’t want to be featured on a Law and Order episode, do you? When you feel like you need to use your “mother voice” first count to ten…then find something (a shoe or a book works nicely) to lovingly throw at the person you are trying to communicate with. Continue throwing items if needed (remember you are not trying to injure this person, only make them listen to your profound words!) until you have his or her undivided attention. Using the “mother glare” is a great addition after the “toss”. If those fail, leaving you with no other choice than using your voice to make your presence known, I recommend finding the most sound proof room in the house before commencing forward with your “educational lecture”; a closet, the attic or basement are possibilities if there are no open windows in those areas. I also find going into the bathroom, closing the door and turning on the shower is an excellent way to muffle the “parenting moment” that is needed. If all else fails, count to ten again and quickly close up all your windows… Pass this along to any other Mommy who may not be aware of this “glitch” that occurs during this warm weather season. (To the tune: “Do you hear what I hear?”) Said Mr. Lamb to his neighbor Mrs. Green Do you hear what I hear? Way across the street Mrs. Green Do you hear what I hear? A mom, a mom Shouting at her kids And her voice echoes through the window screen And her voice echoes through the window screen… Enough is enough. I am so tired of people bad mouthing our armed forces. I live on a military base and I still hear all this garbage. Our troops are in Iraq, whether you like it or not, whether you agree with them or not, they are there. Bad mouthing them does not help anyone or anything. They fight for our country’s freedoms; they fight to give you people your 1st amendment rights to say the garbage you say about them. Your duty as an American is to support our troops, regardless of your believes or political views. If you don’t agree with them being there vote accordingly, but do not hold it against our troops, my husband, my friends, my family, brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers. They are doing their job. They are putting there lives on the line for our county, they are missing the births of there daughters, and sons, they are missing the holidays with there loved ones, and you ignorant people are blaming them for this war. They had a mission to do and they left to do it. While most came home and went back, some never made it back, they gave there live for their country, and you have the audacity to criticize them. Our soldiers are in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, and Korea to protect us, to protect them, and you sit on the sidelines doing NOTHING to help, you just complain, criticize and fight amongst yourselves solving nothing. Just keep your mouths shut! Keep your stupid ignorant opinions to yourself, because we, the wives of soldiers, the mothers of soldiers, fathers, sisters, brothers, family and friends of our HERO’S don’t want to hear anymore of your crap!
