Decisions, decisions....

So I am possibly the worst decision maker in the entire world! When I go to Blockbuster to rent a movie- it sucks! When I pick the place to eat- the food sucks, or the service sucks, or something is horrible.

Well, tonight no one wanted to pick where to eat dinner so I thought we could try a new place. So we went to Casey's over on Lakewood and the food was not great. I had a cheese burger that was pretty good with homemade chips. Aylee had a scrambled egg and so did Seth. Evan hated his bacon cheeseburger almost crying at the table saying it was nasty because it was burnt and tasted like charcoal. Dave ordered chinese noodles with beef and the noodles, and green veggies were like a "swamp" as Dave said. So there ya go- it sucked!

I got my Durango back today- yeah!!! Hopefully it is back to normal soon, we have to be gentle on it for the first few hundred miles to give the transmission time to break in. We are getting supringly better gas mileage now that we have gotten it back... wonder if it's cuz it's being babied..

So it's off to a long weekend. I'm sure I will find time to enlighten all of you readers of my blog with something more intersting then a crappy food joint. Only time will tell :)

Happy 4th of July weekend!

Jinkies 2

Now that I have vented on my last blog, I hurt the very person that had hurt me and that is rude of me. I didn't mean to hurt you, nameless one, I was just venting my frustrations in an open forum. I assume no one reads the crap I write so I just say what I feel. I maybe generalize and personalize too much in the same area even though it is all separate in my head. I don't reread them before I post I just have diarrhea of the mouth. It's my way to get it all out. Thank you for telling me it hurt you because I do not want to do that. Please take little to no stock in any of my future post as well.
Actually, this goes to anyone out there reading my stupid blog abut my life- I apologize if I hurt anyone while I am ranting. It's not my intent. Honestly I just need to vent- and I can be downright nasty when I do that. I apologize now to everyone in advance. :).

Jinkies!

I decided that I don't like people. Why bother? You can invest all the time and patience into a friendship and it can blow up and go away just because. Now in my world, marriage and family do not count because no matter what happens you have to work it out- getting out is not an option. I have been burned more times than I care to remember by people who I at one point in my life considered my friend. How is it that I have been so unlucky in this area? My mom has had great friends in her life since grade school.
I know of one friend that could definitely be a life long friend,but I seem to get her wrath every once in a while and honestly I'm not sure I deserve it. I have been told to "give her space" cuz she is "so fing mad". What? Are we in grade school still? I guess I am the problem. Is there anyone out there who just wants to have a friend with no strings attached? I'm not terribly attentive, I work full time and have 4 children, I will forget your birthday, anniversary, and your children's birthdays. But if you ever need something or an ear to listen or shoulder to cry on- heck, I'm there!
I think my blog is sounding more like my diary from grade school than an adult blog, but this is what's on my mind. Maybe tomorrow will be a positive and less pathetic blog. Keep your fingers crossed. Lol.

Nine years of wedded bliss...

Today is my 9 year church anniversary with my hubby Dave. We were married originally on December 7,2000 in a courthouse. June 30, 2001 was our church wedding. It's fun being able to celebrate our anniversary two times a year. :)
Dave came and picked me up for lunch today and we enjoyed a yummy meal and were able to talk about some issues going on in our life. I love that he drove out here to have a quick lunch then race back to work for an all afternoon manager's meeting. I love him more than I did when I married him- both times. ;).
Happy Anniversary David! I love u! Thanks for putting up with me! Lol

Blogging at work

I am blogging from the most incredibly boring place on the planet. My work! I posted on my FB today that I slapped my desk after falling asleep and scaring the doo doo out of me. It's 100% true. I try and drink coffee to stay awake but the coffee is so bad here it tasted like tar. Ugh! So now it's after 5:05 and I am waiting for my knight in shunning armor to come and rescue me from this hell.
Yes, Dave and I are carpooling to GR together everyday. The Durango is getting a new transmission that we can't afford but we can't afford not to either. Hopefully I will be able to get another 5 good years out of it then. :)
Anyone know of a job? I seem to apply my brains out, but because I have no college education I am automatically passed over. So frustrating because I am smart and I just need a chance to prove myself. How in the world could I go back to school? I blew that chance. *sigh*
Tune in next time for another self-induced pity party. Lol.

A shortened work week!!!

Ok, so apparently I am not as good at this blogging thing as I thought I would be. I have been really busy and had not even given this blog a thought (or even remembered that I had one to be frank) until I was talking to my dad and he mentioned it. It was like, Duh! I should write on that again. My apologies for not blogging but I am at it again.

So this week was pretty crazy again. On Monday night I went to see the Rockettes with my mom- thanks mom, it was really fun! Tuesday night I worked a little late, had to come home and quick clean, cuz my inlaws were coming over to watch the kids so I could go to Evan and Seth's parent teacher conferences and then I had to do a 31 show. I didn't get home until 10 and I hadn't eaten since lunch. Dave left to go to R&R (Rob & Rachel's) and I went to bed at 11:30. Tonight is Wednesday and I left work early to run to Byron Center to pick up a fresh turkey for my husband to work his magic on for Thanksgiving and then stayed at home with Seth and Aylee and played Rock Band with Seth for an hour. Dinner is grilled cheese and chix noodle soup. Aylee and Seth are running thru the house and they are both squeeling and laughing so hard. Aylee has been stripped to her diaper since peaches and her = a giant mess. She will be getting a bath tonight! She is currently dragging around the kitchen table the cloth tote I use to carry her naptine sheets to and from Appletree and she is just giggling. I think those peaches had some extra funny juice on them since Seth also ate them and has the same giggles. I hope they sleep good tonight! Well, I am off to finish up my night and eat my dinner. Hopefully my husband comes home soon or I am going to eat w/o him.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

2nd blog on day one...

So at daycare today my daughter fell and has a nice shiner on her eye now. It was an accident, so apparently she has not mastered the art of walking.

We had dinner at my sister-in-law Jen's house and now we are home and the boys are playing Uno and making up rule after rule as they go. Guess who is crying about the new rule??? Yep, Seth. He is frustrated because Evan won't follow his rule of keeping cards above the table so they can all see how many are in their hands. Now they are playing Catch Phrase and Seth doesn't understand the game and he is frustrated. Poor kid! He just got the last one right though- go Seth! Aylee is walking around and opening cupboard doors and pulling out- DANG FLY! there is a fly that disappears every time we get the swatter out-ahhh!!! all my tupperware type dishes and the pans. The boys don't want to go to bed tonight until they get to talk to Dave on the computer. We have programs on both computers to be able to video chat while he is in New York. Hope he calls soon- I can't handle much more of the the Catch Phrase. Evan just said, "something that mom and I eat that you hate, it has spinach and meat in it." I said, "salad." and Evan says, "Nope, coleslaw." WHAT?!?!? I am telling you that I do not like coleslaw with spinach and meat in it! LOL

Well, we are braving our own house tonight with out a toilet and the boys are really excited about peeing outside on the dog kennel. Me, you ask?? Well, lets just say if I can't make it to the neighbor's house I will be tossing out a plastic bowl in my trash in the next few days. Sad I know. May have been too much info? Oh well! Night night!
