Hey Ladies!!!

If someone reads this post the link on BTBBC so everyone can understand. Today earlier, at some point in time, my computer was hacked. Several of my accounts were hacked including facebook, myspace, and Xanga. No one knows my passwords, and they are so complicated to guess that I'm surprized that they were able to figure them out, I use the same password for most everything. I've changed all my passwords, deleted accounts to multiple things and wiped my computer and reinstalled everything. I can't risk my info out like that. I'm sorry. I will miss you ladies, if any of you would like to chat you can contact me at TweetiePiesMommy@ ymail.com minus the space after the at symbol.

FRIDAY!!!!

The day of so much hope and so much promise....another long week is behind you, and the weekend hold endless possibilities....

I know as the holidays grow closer, we become more and more scheduled, not like we are not already...

But each week when this magical day hits, I look at the weekend and smile....2 days to be with my whole family all day long, things I want to get done, that might actually happen, hopefully some time to snuggle with Keith and the kids to watch movies and take it easy!

All of it makes me smile and makes me thankful it is FRIDAY!

Things I am thankful for....

My children: Even when they do not sleep and are screaming, I cannot believe the miracle that they are, and how I am so blessed to have them.

Keith: I have never known love like the love he gives me, we are best friends, but beyond that I have found someone who adores me...He is everything I have ever wanted in a partner

My Parents: For teaching me all that I know and for being the most amazing support system ever..

My brother: I know no matter what our relationship is like, I can call and he will be there for me...

My IL's: For raising the amazing man I married, even though I sometimes do not agree with what they say and do, they did good when raising Keith.

My friends: I have crazy friendships that expand all over the place and through cyberspace and beyond....I have these relationships with all different people and I feel so very blessed to know that I am loved...and that if I need a shoulder to cry, to bitch, moan and scream, or to laugh about something funny, all I have to do is pick up the phone, or log on....it is nice to know that

I feel even in these hard economic times I am more blessed than I could ever imagine....Life is good and the Good Lord has been very good to me...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING...

Showering as a mom of two...

So I needed to get a shower this morning, Bailey is chillin in her boppy on the couch, sound asleep, and I do not want to move her and possibly wake her up....Sammy is watching Doodlebops, so I think perfect oppourtunity.

So here is my shower....

Me: Sammy...I am getting in the shower you be good...and do not touch mommy's laptop

Get in shower, start water, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Wet hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Lather hair with shampoo, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Rinse hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Put Conditioner in hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Lather up with soap, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Rinse hair and body, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.

Finally I am done....And of course she was an angel the whole time....and my shower took twice as long because of my constant checking on her, but I know if I did not check on her, my laptop would be laying on the ground, probably next to Bailey, and Sammy would be running around like crazy....

Time is a constant.

This was my morning. From getting out of bed, to getting out of the door 45 minutes actually passed. But with -AH- toddler in tow it felt like 4.5 hours.

-If we had been moving any slower this morning, we would have been moving backwards. In fact I'm pretty sure at one point we were. I'm certain I saw myself pass by; she didn't look any better.
-For every 2 steps forward there were 500 back, 5 to the right, 5 to the left; 10 hops, 6 stomps with the right foot, 4 with the left; 20 hip wiggles, 2 back arches, and 45 "shut-ups". One of these days, one of them is going to be uttered by me.
-3 Time Outs where given. If you assume that 10 minutes is wasted in trying to get a child to behave prior to the time out, 36 minutes was dedicated to behavior modification. That means I had 9 minutes to myself. Which is why I look like I just got out of bed.
-If Fiona wants to act like a schizophrenic, that's fine. If the dog wants to act likewise, the dog is going to get his butt thrown in time out also.


I sometimes feel they only way I'm going to make it to work on time is if I make a deal with the devil.

The past...

It is so funny how things from the past pop up at the oddest times. I was out for my nightly walk a couple of nights ago....and as I was walking the normal route, when the sound of acoustic guitar filled the air. I looked to my right, and saw a young man and a girl. He was playing and singing and she was hanging off his every word. Suddenly I was transported 10 years back in time. I listened as I walked by and thought about a time in my life when I loved a boy like this. And when I say love, it was not a romantic love, but the purest kind of friendship love you could imagine. He played and sang, and I was entranced by his songs. I believed in what he sang about and believed that someday the world would see the genius that I saw in him and his music. Then I thought to my current life, and how besides an very scarce email here or there, I have not talked to this boy or heard his songs live in almost 6 years. I have gotten married and had two kids, he is engaged with a child of his own. As I walked I thought about him and his lovely songs....and I wondered if he ever picks up his guitar and thinks of me.

1 month ago...

1 month ago I gave birth to Bailey....

As I look back on this past month I feel so thankful that she is a good sleeper, and so happy that I now have two precious little girls whom I love so much!

I just cannot believe it has been a month already...it is amazing how time flies when we are having fun!!!
