Wordless Wednesday~Moment of Silence Please...

Well its Monday again!

UGH! Monday is here! What can I UGH! about? Well lets see... Im exhausted because I am not getting enough sleep at night between a healing husband, sick kids and other odd reasons. Our thermostat is broken and I cant get one til the weekend. Thank God for Georgia autumn weather. Sugar ants have come to drink of the magical water in my sink and my kids are bouncing off the walls like those little bouncy balls you get from the gumball machines. Dang Candy! Do you think the kids would believe that the Great Pumpkin came by and took all their candy away? But all in all I'm doing pretty well. I could sleep for a year if you'd let me. But for some odd reason I am actually enjoying working my behind off taking care of the family. I love being needed and adorned with hugs and kisses and "your my favorite mommy ever." compliments. Who wouldn't. I love being a mom and wife. That is what God called me to be and I enjoy it immensely!

Speaking of mommies, I would like to take a moment to offer up some huge congrats to a fellow blogger MckMomma She gave birth last week to a very healthy little boy, Stellan. What a cutie. You need to read her story about him. What a miracle she has and what a story and testimony she has to tell. I have been praying and following her for a few months now. And I was so glad to see the outcome that God has allowed in their lives. God is awesome and I stand in awe of him in times like these! GOD you rock! MckMomma, Hugs to you and Prince Charming! I love you and your family and you are in my heart and prayers daily! YAY! Stellan! Good job showing the world that science isn't exact and the only truth. Big Mac, McNugget and Small Fry, protect and love your brother everyday. Lots of toe tickles and forehead kisses too! HUGS TO YOU ALL!

Also a quick reminder, if you haven't voted tomorrow is the big day! I voted 2 weeks ago because I knew I would be busy taking care of Charles and the kids. I am nervous about the outcome. I am not getting into political discussion but I really hope my candidate wins. If not I am scared Charles will uproot us and move to Canada. UGH! So go vote tomorrow! If you need more inspiration to go, there are lots of places giving away free food to those who vote so go vote and then go eat! What a deal!

Quick note..

I am sorry I havent blogged much but my Hubby had surgery on Monday and I have been staying busy caring for him and my 2 younger children are sick as well. So I am not able to find the time to blog. So if it is quiet here lately please be patient and pray for my sanity. It is slowly diminishing. Soon You will see me acting like Rose in the "After Candy" shot! *SIGH*

Forks, Goldfish and Candy OH MY!!!

Forks! I want forks! The same invisible kid that steals my socks has now started stealing my forks! How can you lose forks? I cant find my forks! Have I mentioned I need forks?

When I told the girls to feed the dog this is not what I meant:

yes thats goldfish in his bowl. I guess I should specify next time.

And Candy of course! Last night was Halloween. And my neighborhood turns into the Halloween Woodstock! Candy lasts 5 minutes. And the kids racked up! We went trick or treating in our city's mainstreet. All the businesses get involved and hand out candy. So they got to trick or treat twice yesterday. My feet still hurt! My SIL and her crew along with my BFF Tracy came with her 2 great kids! So we became a very powerful part of the Halloween Woodstock in our neighborhood. Here are some pics:

And this one is AFTER the candy!

OMG!!!!!

GAS IS SO CHEAP....compared to what it was 2 weeks ago. We went through a gas shortage several weeks back and gas was over $4 a gallon. Which for a full tank for our van equals over $60! That's a lot of money for one fill up. Well yesterday my hubby came home and showed this to me...

Wouldn't you about faint!!!! I almost did except I was in the middle of making dinner and if I fainted no one would eat so I stopped myself. So I say to gas "keep going down baby!"

Also my sweet Faith has informed me " Mom I want to be 3 again."

"Um? Don't you want to be 4 anymore?"

"Yes"

That's where she lost me. Is she saying yes she wants to be 4 or yes she doesn't want to be 4 anymore. She always answers questions weirdly. So I am not sure. But now I have to build a time machine to appease my 4 year old who wants to be 3. So off I go, now wheres that screwdriver.....

Wordless Wednesday

When I try to blog and Allen is near I find it very hard to accomplish the task. And here is why!

So I decided to let him have is own Keyboard so I could be free to blog. Lets see if this pleases him?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED....for now :)

UGH! Monday~Whats wrong with me?

I have been so tired lately! I am begging for a nap by 2:00 pm every afternoon. And when Rose reads to me I am trying not to snore. Nothing against her reading, its just that Im so blasted sleepy all the time! My house is a wreck because I have no energy to clean it. If I start to clean I have to stop and rest because I feel worn out. I also use to have a memory like an elephant. But that is long gone since Allen has come into our lives. I have forgotten to pay bills, make phone calls and other things that are to embarrassing to mention. Alot of this started when I was pregnant with my lil guy. It has yet to go away but to actually get worse. Plus I gained 6 lbs in month after maintain my weight for months. So I went to the Dr. Office yesterday and they are testing my thyroid. They ruled out infection and Anemia. So now its onto other options. They gave me a shot in my tush(what fascination does this office have with sticking people in the behinds with needles?!)of B12. It seems to be helping as little today. I got up and made eggs for my hubby for breakfast instead of his usual PB&J Sandwich. I made him coffee. After getting Rose of to school and Allen fed, Charles off to work I cleaned off the kitchen desk and even bathed Houdini..err.. Bandit. Now he is laying on the couch sleeping and shivering from his bath. I told him if he would stop coming in covered in mud he wouldnt have to go through this but does he listen? NOPE! I dont feel pity for him anymore. So I have accomplished alot so far today. I am a little sleepy but a bit more awake then I use to be. The Dr. said to go back to taking my prenatals again so back on them I am. I should know in a week about my thyroid. Also I am allergic to marriage. Well my wedding rings atleast. For years I have had to take them off periodically because my skin gets red, itchy, cracked. Even bleeding sometimes. And I just keep trying to wear them but I am allergic to the metal in the rings. So what do I do? I dont want to spend a bunch of money on a platinum ring if it will react the same way. Oh well I guess I will have to just tattoo my hubby's name on my finger instead. LOL!! J/K you think I would let someone near my boney finger with a needle and permenant ink? Im crazy but not THAT crazy. I will have to keep you updated on what happens. It will either be my thyroid, extreme laziness or another baby! J/K My tubes are tied. No more babies. Unless God decides otherwise.

Oh and on a side note...I found out that 520 is not a police code here in georgia but there is a code 5 and 20 so together it would be 5-a bomb threat vs. 20- a vicious animal. I am sure theres a joke in there somewhere. Post one! I want to know what kind of jokes you could make about this one!

Happy UGH! Monday!
