For those who don’t know too much about my personal life, you will probably be lost in this post. But if you still enjoy it, than good I guess. But anyone with half a brain will pretty much get what I’m saying and what this is about. my intentions here are not to bad mouth anyone, but if I start venting, I am not going to name name’s because I am not here for slandering. I could if I really wanted to and yes, I could get really mean, but I am not like that. The person that this is towards to probably doesn’t even know about this site and probably has never been on here. But if this person happens to run across here, good for you.

I know that you think you are doing so much better than I am, but you are so far from the truth. I find it sad that you feel you have the need to make me look like the one who is failing when it is YOU that chose to go the other route. You have no idea how hard I have been working to heal myself from all the damage that you have done. I really don’t care even if you did have an idea. You can continue to live in that sick little world of yours and think that everything you “supposedly” know is right. I don’t care. You know why? Because I am making something out of myself. I have a job that I am doing incredibly well at and if you knew how much I was making, boy, blood would be boiling and I would secretly enjoy that. I was able to get out of enough debt to get a new car. BY MYSELF! I am a good mother dammit and I don’t really give a rats ass if you think I am or not. Your past does not erase everything that has happened. I know people make mistakes. I hope one of these days you will be big enough to pull your head out of your ass and realize that people can overcome from their mistakes, grow up and move on. i wish that you would grow up and stop blaming me for YOUR mistakes.  Yes, there is a lot of bitterness. but I don’t let that rule my life. I have a lot to live for and 3 lives that depend on me. We are best friends and living our life to the fullest. I am able to provide for them in ways that you never can or will. I hope that one of these days you will grow up, be responsible and be part of their lives. They deserve to have the best of both worlds. I am happy for you that you found someone. REALLY. I hope you have learned from your mistakes and treat her better than you treated me. I hope that she brings out the best in you because everyone deserves happiness. Be good to her. Despite what you think, I work my butt off for these kids to give them the necessesities of life. And more. Because they deserve it. I love them more than you would ever know or even comprehend. I don’t care if you believe me or not. Your opinion of me does not matter. This post is to merely get my thoughts out. I mean, that is the whole point of blogging. Good luck to you.
And Leave me alone.

I was on Urban Outfitters and ran into this. I love finding the most unusual things to make me laugh. It helps that I have an incredibly dry sense of humor so it’s so easy to make me laugh. So if you are one of those people who love to tell jokes and not a lot of people laugh at them, good chances are that I will. I am one of those people in the movie theatre that laughs at moments that others don’t. Or maybe I’m just that cool and I actually get it. :-) Anyway, I think this is a must have for work. I love having things on my desk that make me smile. Like Tim, I love having a little buddy on my desk. I am one of those girls who has action figures. Soon I will take pictures of my little buddies to spread the joy. So back on track, I saw this little gadget and figured this is something that would make my desk so much better for working. Don’t ask me how, but I just know that it would help…….

If I do end up getting one of these, I’ll be sure to take pictures so I can show the coolness of it. I sure do love the little things………..

I really find it funny yet irritating when women use the bathroom and after feel that it’s sufficient enough to just run their hands under the water. Like the water has super magical powers that you don’t need soap. I’m not a germaphobe (I have 3 kids, you really can’t be. Well, there are some things that I do get totally grossed out at, but I suck it up anyway.)  even so, some women can be more messy then men and I feel that if you are going to pee or whatever, use some soap. I mean especially in the work area. I don’t know if you feel that you are above everyone else and your body puts out it’s own chemical to clean your hands, but humor the rest of us and wash your hands. WITH SOAP mind you. Let us see them bubbles so we can have that sense of security that yes, your hands are officially clean. Then I don’t have to worry about coming over to fix your computer and wonder if I am going to get leftover bathroomness all over me.

I love this picture.

Ya, you know who you are  baby….. :-)

So this is totally random and has absolutely nothing to do with the picture above, but this is what I am famous for. I love to people watch. I could sit at a store and just watch people. I hate being in crowds, but if I am at a distance, it’s ok. I love seeing all the randomness that goes on. I also love when people think that no one notices what they are doing. Like the nose pickers. Come on man. No one really wants to see you digging for your gold. And once you get your gold, you analyze your findings.  One of my favorites is watching people eat while they read. They are so focused on their book, they don’t realize when they are trying to find their straw, their straw is playing tricks on them. You see their mouth searching for the straw, but they just can’t seem to find it.  Instead of adverting their eyes from their book to actually see the straw, they are convinced that their tongue will find it for them. Little do they know the straw is moving around in circles playing tricks on them. The funny thing is, they do this for about 5 minutes before they realize they aren’t going anywhere with this. Finally, they move their eyes away from the book and go for the straw. Thank goodness. I almost went up to shove the straw in his mouth for him.

So yesterday I was on my way to Barnes and Noble to get some Far Side books. I love those…..Anywho, as I started to drive, all of the sudden it hit me. The itch. But it wasn’t just anywhere. It was on the bottom of my foot. And anyone who gets those, knows how much they suck because every time it happens, it’s like the itch is saying “Hey! I’m here! And I’m not going to let you think of anything else until you take care of me buddy!” And I was wearing my Chuck Taylors so it’s not like it’s easy to take my shoes off. You know what? The itch was right. I couldn’t think of anything else but that itch. But since I was driving, I did have to pay attention to the road. I swear this never happens until I am in a situation where I can’t immediately take care of it. So I try to rub my foot with my other foot in hopes that it would ease some of the itch. Nope. Made it worse. So I’m rushing as fast as I can to Barnes and Noble so I can take care of this stupid  thing and right as I pull up to park………………….. Yep….It was gone.
I’ll be damned.

I love those inspiration posters that they have around the office that is supposed to help with morale or whatever. I found these de-motivational posters at ThinkGeek and thought that it would be awesome to have in our office. Working in the IT department, I know that we would really be the only ones that would truly appreciate it…….

They aren’t that expensive either. I love this site because when you order fun stuff, you get ‘geek points’ and can earn free stuff. in fact, that is where I got Tim. I am obsessed with this site. Even if you aren’t a geek, they still have some things on there that’s pretty clever. Great gift ideas!

There are a lot of things about Dooce that I really like, but two of the major things are that she likes bacon and rice krispie treats. I am seriously obsessed with those and I love that there is someone out there who likes them just as much. I have so many krispie treat wrappers in my garbage can at work that every time when someone comes over, they peak in my trash can and see all the wrappers that I have. I think I should either move my trash can, or embrace the fact that I love krispie treats and tape them on my wall.
Just thinking about bacon now is making my mouth water….I think it’s time for some IHOP at lunch………
Mmmm…..IHOP……

You get an itch….when you reach to scratch, it’s not the right spot. So, you keep searching for this itch because you notice that it is getting worse and worse…..FINALLY! You found your itch……Nope just kidding. It’s still there.

Oh and what’s really weird, is any woman who has experienced a C-section (including myself), you know how much of a pain it is for recovery. But one of the things I hate about the recovery, is you lose almost all feeling in your tummy. Your nerves have been cut. No feeling. But somehow, there happens to be this little nerve that decided to withstand the cutting that comes with surgery and it stays in tact. This is the nerve that causes an itch in the place that you are numb. And no matter how hard you scratch, it’s not going away because this stupid itch is INTERNAL. How weird is it that you can’t feel anything when you touch your stomach, but this impossible to deal with nerve, can make you itch?

I love seeing those smiles of yours as I walk in the door after a long day at work…..

I love the feeling of your little arms wrapped tightly around my neck……..

I love hearing the excitement in your voices as soon as our eyes meet……

I love knowing that no matter how rough my day is, I can depend on you to make it all better just by being near me………

I love our times together……

I love how you can easily bring a tear of joy out of me with the cute little things you say…….

I love that you love me too…..

I love you Ty, Micah, and Rylie!
