In which I ramble and rant a little

If I had a never-ending cup of purified ice water on hand all day, that is all I would drink, but honestly I don’t have one and no matter how many times I go downstairs I always forget to get some ice water, ugh, so im sitting here trying to conserve my bottle of powerade and not doing a good job of it. I tried some coke zero today, I must not have waited long enough to try it because it tasted HORRIBLE. Either that or I really am getting over soda. Lately a lot of things have been annoying me, mostly the non existant friends I have and the somewhat elusive father I sometimes see (grumble) I am so annoyed with people right now, and I have no clue why because usually im really relaxed and just accepting of everything no matter how bad it is… Not anymore bucko!

I stay in my house so much that whenever I go outside its like going to another planet, alien and way to bright. I really need to find some sand to stick my head in because it’s really the only way im going to survive right now.

My daughter is going through some weird kinda stage right now, she is 13 months old and all of a sudden she screams and cries whenever her brother gets attention, I have no idea if this is normal sibling rivalry but if it is, wow they start young.

In other news, the word “no” should be banished from the human language…. at least in the case of anyone under the age of 18.

For some reason I do not want to see the new Alice in Wonderland movie, I do not like the Disney cartoon so that may have something to do with it because I find it creepy. Other movies I dont like because they are “creepy” include:

• Willy Wonka (both movies)

• The Wizard of Oz

• Snow White

So ya, there are a lot more but im tired and can’t think of them right now.

This weekend will be challenging since me and the kids will be visiting family but the weekend after should be better, since I will not… repeat, NOT be home! YEY… anyways my moment of revelry is over and now im done. Time to get some sleep.

V-Day!

Today was: Good, Bad… and Ugly.

Let’s start off by turning on my /rant switch. *flick* ah, there we go, now down to business. I woke up this morning to a hungry baby and a loud toddler which is usual and expected, even on Valentines day, so I do not really mind because even though I was tired I love waking up to my rug rats. In the middle of changing a diaper the door bell rang and lo’ and behold there was a deliver for me! my dear husband had Edible arrangements deliver me a bouquet of chocolate dipped fruit (Thank you to my step mom Judy who introduced him to this great company!) and wow it looked good enough to eat, so I did!

Anyways the day started off great… but then my brother in-law told me he would be gone all day *sad face* so that is pretty much when everything went downhill.  To make a long story short my day consisted of staying home taking care of my mother in-law who is so headstrong that she ate what she was not supposed to and ended up getting sick all over everything in her room *huff* so I had to do a lot of laundry and clean up a lot of other stuff *sigh* so no romantic gazing into my husbands eyes… no alone time… no excursion out of the house… nothing, except my lovely bouquet of chocolate covered fruit and the adoration of the hubby. I guess my day was not all bad after all *wink*

The moral of the story I think is even though things do not turn out as planned, you gotta look on the bright side and realise that the good parts can eclipse the bad, especially when chocolate is involved.
