All Mighty Mouth

This is what my daughter turning seven has brought me. Her mouth and the attitude that comes out of it has been driving me insane! I realize she's just trying to test me and all situations around her, but some this has got to stop!

On her birthday she was opening her presents and not being very excited. She seemed almost bored. She opened up her Sponge Bob movie and just kind of looked at it. I asked her if she was having fun and if she liked her presents. She responded first with a huge SIGH! And I was thinking, "You ungrateful spoiled little child!" But at the end of her sigh and after a pause she said, "You are the most awesome Mom ever!!!" Which then of course led me to crying on the spot! I have the most awesome KID EVER!!!

My weekends without Gabby seem like nothing short of complete debauchery. I need to find something else that will occupy my time and make me happy. Staying out all night, drinking, being around people I don't really want to be around other than to have them somehow boost my ego and be nice to me just isn't cutting it anymore. I got home at 6 this morning, had to call into work (which is fine because we still don't have that much work), and then I slept pretty much until 3pm. Now I'm still exhausted and can't wait to lay my head down on my pink pillows!

Gee....Gabby reminds me of SOMEONE...but who is.....it.....
Hmmm . . . I wonder . . .
Don't get me wrong . . . having a daughter is the most awesome thing! They just go through these phases and drive you insane . . .

My B-day is the 26th of June. Hail all Cancers! Good luck with that one. They are the most sensitive and moody ones of the zodiac!

Lizzy, it could be worse. You could have a boy, which I don't see you with. I think it would be helarious.

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
