A nice warm day. Ahhhhhh

5/24/2012

     Well it is Thursday.  Do you know what that means?  Nothing really, just one day closer to the weekend.  We are moving in a couple of days, and I still feel like I have so much to do.  Well to be honest, I do have alot of things to get done.

I have to tell you, I love Seth Meyers.  He was on Live with Kelly this morning.  So so funny.  I just love his laugh.  I thought I loved Anderson Coopers laugh, but I think Seth may have him beat.  Every time I see him on something, I think he is so funny.   Love Seth Meyers! 

The girl had to write a report for D.A.R.E last week.  It was a big deal, as most things are in our family.  At the end of the report she had to add that she would pledge to be violence and drug free.  She didn't add that.  So the morning of the due date for the report, she starts flipping out, that she had forgotten to put the pledge in.     I told her the report looked good, and at the bottom of the page write in your own handwriting your pledge.  Omg, that is crazy ....  It would never be accepted.  Back and fourth we went.  Finally she just add s it like I suggested.   Comes home that day and says it was accepted and it was all ok.  Then yesterday she comes barreling in the door and says her report along with two others were chosen to be read in front of the whole school.  Glad she turned it in that day.  Very proud of her, But ughhhh she makes me crazy!! 

In the news today they said the best sunblock was Walgreens brand spf 50.  The worst brand to stay away from ( if you are wanting sunblock) is Hawaiian Tropic.  Well hello ..... Everyone knows that if you want the golden bronze glow you go for Hawaiin Tropic .  Duh!  

Today is Brothers Day and  dot dot dot doooooot dooooot (Morse Code Day)  Enjoy!!

Thankful tidbit ..... That I just got a small burst of energy!

Until the next time    xo

Headaches stink :(

5/22/2012

Good morning.....
Its a drizzly grey morning.  Which I hate, but when you are packing up a house, you feel alot less guilty for  being in the house.

       Its the kids last week of school.   As much as I don't want them home and bored all summer, it will be nice to not get up and start running like crazy right off the bat.   I was up from about 4 am listening to those loud chirping birds.  I love that my windows were open, but I hate being woke up listening to a bunch of birds conversing. Crazy mommy with a headache had a crazy house this morning.

I was dropping little man off at school this morning, and I see tons of parents going into the school. Hmmmm I'm hoping I didn't forget about something.  I even had pj bottoms on.  I never wear something like that.  I was just running so late I hopped in the car.  Next thing I realize is i'm in my pj bottoms.  My biggest pet peeve!!  So I couldn't go into the school to figure out what was going on, because I was inappropriately dressed.  :(    I'm sure I will get an ear full when he gets out at 11am. 

Had the girl's recital this weekend.  Went really good.  She did wonderful.  I was so proud of her.   Several people came up to me and told me how good she was.   It was a long one though.  I think there was 45 numbers.  Overall it was good!   Both boys were glad they didn't have to go.  So was I .  The whole time I was thinking thank goodness they are not here.  That  would have been a true nightmare.  Someone told me at the one showing there were two parents with two young er children with them.  They said the kids yelled, fought, and kicked their chairs the whole time.  My friend said she turned around and gave them a look a few times.  Then asked the mom to please stop the child from kicking the chair.  Then the mom got offended and snapped some bullshit comment to her.   I mean seriously.  Who are these people that think their children are entitled to do and say what they want.   Like its totally ok that those kids were kicking someones chair.  If for some reason you absolutely cannot find a sitter, then one parent should stay home with the kids, then another parent go to the other showing. Sometimes that is not workable either.  I understand.  Kids should not be allowed to do these things, because the parent doesn't want to upset them or whatever bullshit excuse these parents use.  The parents are supposed to be in charge.  Not the kids.  If the kids think they are, they need to be reminded firmly that they are not!      Afternoon Rant !!

Thankful tidbit......  My kids were not at the recital. 

Crazy mommy is off to finish packing up my house. 

RIP Donna Summer

5/17/2012

Let's start with ....  RIP Donna Summer!  Loved her growing up.  :(  Sad to hear.   I have been running all day.  So tired! 

So Keeping up with the Kardashians is coming back on.   I normally would be excited, but I hate Kim K so much I might just stop watching.  After that bullshit scam of a wedding, I just cannot stomach her.  She tweets pictures of herself all day long.  Ughh  She is such a media hound.  I truly feel she made a mockery of the meaning of marriage.   Love Bruce though!!

How about John Travolta?  Also known as Danny Zucko and Vinny Babarino.   What do you think? Could he really be grabbing and touching all these masseurs?  I think not, if its one cuckoo.  Several people are coming forward though.  Makes me sad!  They claim its a vicious tabloid agenda.  Hopefully!

I'm really having a craving for fried potatoes and onions.   I believe i'm going to start cutting up some potatoes.  Yum yum! 

Its World Hypertension Day!  So..... Do what you need to for hypertension. 

Thankful tidbit ....  That one child is already asleep and its 7:30  

Crazy mommy is out of here!

The hump!

5/16/2012

Happy Hump Day!   Just got home from the grocery store.  I had several things in my bag that wasn't mine.  I either blacked out and just started putting things in, or the lady in front of me is missing some groceries.  That happened to me a few  weeks ago.   Got home and was missing  some hamburger, buns, and a few other things.  Very frustrating! 

The girl has recital rehearsal tonight.  It is such a hassle.  I am looking forward to her recital, I heard they put on a good one.  Hopefully.   Over the years there has been some good ones and some painful to watch ones.    Here's hoping!

So I had this dream last night that I was at some dinner thing with my boys, and bf's cousin.  I was checking little mans ears at the dinner to make sure they were clean and I found a baby fried shrimp in his ear.  As crazy as that sounds, I didn't even seem crazy shocked that I had found that.  I said to him ( in the dream) if I find a shrimp in your other ear you are going to be in trouble.  WTF?  Well I didn't find a shrimp, I found some left over chicken strips.  I woke up laughing my ass off.  So funny. ( kind of) 

I heard today that if your child has the Justin Bieber haircut they could get a lazy eye.  From not using that eye enough.  Whew...I now have more to go on besides just saying its an outdated haircut.  My opinion!  Little man just said this morning he didn't want to get a haircut, he wanted it to grow out.  I now can tell him he may get a lazy eye.  ;)

Its National Sea Monkey Day!!   A big salute to all those Sea Monkey's.   Looking good!!

Thankful tidbit .     The week is half over!

Crazy mommy is off to her crazy life!

:)

5/14/2012

Happy post Mothers Day!   Hope it was happy for everyone. 

Mirror mirror on the wall who is the top girl scout cookie of them all?  Thin Mint!  Go figure.  I read today that was this years to seller.  Is anyone surprised?  I'm not.  The Samoa came in second.  Which I thought it could have been that or the Peanut Butter sandwich cookie.  I have a story about the Samoa cookie.  A couple of years ago the girl was in girl scouts.  They had a Mothers day tea.  Everyone had to bring a cake.  So I thought and thought. I finally decided we would make a girl scout cookie cake.  We decided on the Samoa.  So I researched the cookie to see what it all was made of.  We made a vanilla bundt cake, frosted it with chocolate, toasted coconut, sprinkled it across the  top, then drizzled chocolate or whatever across the top.   Omg it looked just like the cookie. I was proud as hell.  The next day we go to the tea with all the cakes.  I even think the girl was getting a badge for this.  We get there and I go sit the cake down, I almost passed out.  There were only maybe five (at the most) homemade cakes.  All friggin store bought cakes. This was the whole city of girl scouts, not just our troop.   I was beside myself. I almost left.   Then they were having a lottery and a cake switch.  I ended up leaving with a day old, never picked up birthday cake from a grocery store.  I mean it was for a badge.  How do you justify that.  I will never forget that day.   I tried too get mine back, but it was the first to go.  No shit. 

For all those interested 7/11 is now going to be offering diet slurpee's.  For your slim days, remember the diet slurpee its made with Splenda.  Good luck to 7/11 on their new diet adventure.  I have to be honest if i'm going to get a slurpee it is sure not going to be diet. Hmmmm actually that sounds pretty good right now.  Yum!

Its national chicken dance day.  Get to dancin....

Thankful tidbit.    That there isn't a 7/11 real close.   Lol

Crazy mommy is off to sleep.  Xo

Bring on Friday

5/10/2012

Well...... Here we are another thursday has come and gone.  I had so many things I wanted to get done today, then little man got removed from school at 10:00am.  So needless to say I didn't get everything done that I wanted.  I'm not sure whats going on with him.  He had started doing pretty well.  Then he took a quick slippery ride down to bad ville.   One step forward three big steps back.  Frustrating. 

So has anyone seen the front page of the Time magazine?  A woman with her boob out, breastfeeding her three year old son, who is standing on a chair to reach the boob.  Omg!  I was actually speechless.  I just dont understand why women want to breastfeed that long.  I personally feel it's borderline gross at that point.  Maybe because breastfeeding did not go well or work out for me.  Ummmm actually no I would never ever breastfeed that long.  Creepy! 

So had to take the middle one to the dr this morning.  He was having some allergy issues.  He also has been complaining alot and crying about his back and neck hurting.  I have felt bad and been trying to figure out what is hurting him.  The doctor informed us that he has grown 3 1/2 inches since December 15, and gained no weight.  So basically it is growing pains. He is stretched to the max right now.  Even his elbows are throbbing.  I felt bad for him.  He is struggling with growing pains and the girl is struggling with her head gear for her braces.  I mean you would have thought  she was the only one that ever has had to deal with this.  She did inform me that I don't know what it's like, because I did not have braces.  Well she is wrong!  Kind of.  When my cousin and I were in 4th and 5th grade we would get paper clips, open them up and straighten them out.  Then we would put them across our teeth like a retainer.  WTF....i know.  I believe I even had my retainer ( paper clip) in for a school picture.  They didn't always feel good.  So I do know that pain.  Sort of!  As I got older , dentist s would say ..... Oh did you ever have braces or a retainer?  Ummmm kind of.  I really wanted braces as a kid.  I always had nice straight teeth.  Even straighter after my years of retainer s.  

Thankful tidbit.  That it is National Clean Your Room Day.  Kept the kiddos busy tonight!  Woop woop

Good night.  Crazy mommy is zzzzzz

Tired

5/8/2012

Long day.  Little man had a muffins with mom breakfast today at 7:30.  So we had to get moving a little earlier today.  The line for muffins was crazy.  I almost just skipped it, but I was starving at that point.  I was also waiting for the terrential downpour to stop.  Left there went home did some laundry. Then went to the mall returned a bunch of things then picked little man up.  Who had a horrible day.  Has been pretty consistant with the bad days.  Then took him to religion.   I was so tired, and I was cozy in the recliner.  Next thing I know I had been asleep for almost 35 minutes.  Woke up and my mouth was open, drool running out.  I was embarrassed.  Sister Mary  said we tried to be as quiet as we could. 

Then the girl had a choir concert, I sat next to an over zealous grandpa.  I thought I'm here alone no other kids I'm going to relax for a half hour.  Nope!  This grandpa sits next to me and wants to chat.  Sits down and says, who are you, who you watching, where is she at, ughhhh he quieted down after that.  Thank goodness. 
We then had to leave halfway through, the girl had musical theater.  While I was sitting there I get an email, letting everyone know about the cub scout awards night.  Are you kidding me??  They just don't get it. 

(Friday morning)   Little man had a horrible stomach ache last night.  Hope it gets better today.  He was  really not feeling well.  Whined and moaned most of the night.

Choo Choo  It's National Train Day!  All aboard

Thankful tidbit ......  That little man might want to take a nap today .   ;)

Moody Monday

5/7/2012

It's been a long few days.   The middle boy had 1st communion practice on friday night.  Then the Kentucky Derby was Saturday night.  Then 1st communion on Sunday.  Busy busy weekend. 

We get to the practice on Friday night, I'm hoping we are going to blast through this thing.  It's moving slow, very very slow.  Then the kids were lighting their candle for practice.  All of a sudden this little girl in front of us drops a drop of wax on her finger.  A complete halt.  Ughhhhh   The priest was upset with the nun.  He said she didn't make the candle holders right.  She said oh yes I did make them right.  In the meantime the girl cried and cried and cried.  I was over her.  Bigtime.  I finally said here is a wet wipe, wrap it around her finger.  The mom said or she can stop being a drama queen.  I said , well thats what I was thinking but..... Finally it gets over.  Then the communion went well on Sunday.  I am so proud of him.  He really took it all very serious.  He said, it was a long road to get here but he made it.  He meant it too. 

The girl had to go to the orthodontist today.  It's always a huge debate over what color bands should she get.  Of course I know whatever I say don't get, she will.  I held strong and said it doesn't matter, it's up to you.  She ended up getting pink.  Which I was happy about.  She threatened neon green.  I was so hoping that would not happen.  Wheww    While I was waiting for her this big Asian family comes in.  Maybe 3 kids, a mom, and a helper or someone.  You know what I hate????  I hate when people start talking in a different language.  It is really uncomfortable.  It doesn't matter what they are saying, you think it's about you.  I started thinking I had something on my face, or toilet paper on my shoe, everything comes to mind.  I was so self conscious.  The last time I was there, a couple of women were speaking Arabic.  I was nervous then too.  However they did end up talking to me in English a little.  Took some pressure off.  I wish I spoke another language fluently.  I would talk to myself the whole time I was sitting there.  I only know about six words in  German and ten numbers.   That's not going to get me far.  I can only say Mrs. Smith and thank you  sooooo many times in German before I look a little off. 

Tomorrow is no socks day.  Hope it's warm enough.  ;)  

Thankful tidbit ....... That one May weekend is over! 

I'm outta here!   Xo

Thirsty Thursday

5/3/2012

Its thirsty thursday.  I feel like I just cannot wet my whistle enough.   I'm so thirsty today. 

The girl says tonight how she can't wait for Summer vacation.  I'm really like why?  All these kids have done all week is argue and bicker the minute they walk in the door from school.  After they are done arguing, then they are bored.  I get so tired of hearing ........  I'm bored! There is nothing to do.  Tonight I said , I got some things you can do.  Start cleaning.  Ughhhhh  OMG.  Clean?  Yep!!!!    I really dread summer vacation. 

So let's discuss this lady in the news that took her very young and fair skinned as hell daughter tanning.  Hmmmm I admit as fair skinned as she was she probably could have gotten a contact burn from another room.   Joking!   How about that mother?  Are you serious?  I almost vomited looking at her.  That nose was swelled up and ready to burst .  It looked like she had a leather mitt over her face.  Then she says as serious as can be, I think people are blowing this out of proportion.  Really burnt marshmallow?  I bet her insides are like ashes.. That's right she is an ashhole.   Madness. 

I was out mowing the grass tonight.  Well half of the grass.  This little boy comes by.  Not little , probably  junior high age .  He is on his skate board.  We had new roads put in last fall or whenever.  His skateboard goes off the road a little, and snaps that skate board as hard as can be right into his privates.  I was like a wild person out there.  I didn't know whether to laugh hysterically, ignore it, or help him.  I also didn't want to embarrass him.  Honest to goodness, I was fighting the laughter so hard.  He is laying on the ground crying.  I felt sooooo bad .  I asked him if he was alright . He kinda groans..... Then says, yea  I'm ok.  I asked him if he wanted some ice.  He declined!  I bet he is icing those down tonight.  Poor kid.  It's a busy street.  There is always action out there. 

It's lumpy rug day.  Don't straighten your rugs up till tomorrow.  ;)   Tomorrow is bird day.  Ughhhh  There will be no celebrating for me.  After the way these crows have carried on the last few morning s.  I thought they were in heat or killing each other.  Way to loud!

Thankful tidbit ......... Bedtime!

May Day!!

5/1/2012


Happy May Day.  Been a busy morning already!  I had to go to the doctor for this cough I have.  Then i took the girl to get a immunization.  UGHHH  She was already freaking out last night.  I told her to chill out. It was only one small prick!   She was shaking, nervous, teary eyed all morning.  I was over it!  She was begging to stay home from school  even before we got to the doctor.  I told her nope your nervous nelly butt is going back to school.  We get to place for the immunization, and I look at the slip  and I see she is in need of FOUR shots .....NOT ONE!   UT OH.   This is not going to be good.  I sign in, and keep it to myself.  We get in the room and she says why are all those needles out?  I just calmly shrug and quickly look away.  So I then confess and tell her she is getting more.  Two I tell her.  Still a lie.  UGHHH   Finally the very stone faced nurse blurts it out.  Honey , you are getting two in each arm. You will be fine.  OK .  Lets roll!  She ended up doing pretty well.  Got a free frosty out of it.  I was jealous! 


The girl and  I are on  our way home from the doctor and we come to the railroad tracks.  She says OMG  look at that person?  What is he doing?  I look over and I swear to goodness when I say this.  He had a stick over his shoulder with a stuffed material tied to the end of the stick.  I think we just saw a legitimate hobo!  Tattered shirt, torn up boots , scruffy beard  and a stick with a stuffed bandanna tied to it!  Craziest thing I had seen since little man's undaroo incident.  Which was two days ago.  Anyway I so wanted to take a picture.   Then the  girl says what is legitimate mean and what is a hobo?  

I am hearing that the Titanic 2 is set or is aiming to set sail in 2016.  Are we serious with this?   Hasn't that ship sailed?  Or at least tried?  I get it, It should be respected but let it rest in peace.  Who is signing up for this trip?  I am sure thousands of people will.  I don't know, I feel it's a bit jinxed.  Anyway, Happy Sailing!! 

I am at the library and I over hear this lady say look out my grandson just got out of preschool.  he comes running by.  He settles quickly.  The grandmother turns to me and says.  He has some energy to burn today.  I respond with ,  Oh yea?  Because I really don't care.  He actually was pretty calm.  Calmer than my kids would probably be.  So she obviously doesn't take the hint that I do not care and says ., you know we thought  he would test off the charts , and the preschool teacher says he is struggling.  Ahhh  I get it.  She is looking for someone to tell her what she wants to hear.  Sometimes I might be that person, but today....... I  respond with , Well you know we all think our kids are smarter than they are.  I think parents and grandparents are the most blind  sometimes.  Not her little Billy.  Super smart.  He could draw the perfect shape before his friends.  Then I start to feel bad.  I say well maybe the teacher just doesn't appreciate  or see what he is capable of.  She agreed.  Whew.  He seemed like a sweet little boy, but he has alot to live up too.  Look out Billy, grandma thinks you are a genius. 


 It is save a Rhino Day.  Keep your eyes open, if you happen to see a Rhino tooling around    Save It!! 


Thankful tidbit    .....  No more immunizations for awhile!

Sunday funday not.

4/29/2012

Well the weekend is almost over, and I am tickled.  I have been sick, with bronchitis.  Today was crazy. The girl was at a sleepover till noon today. Then had to take the middle one to a retreat at church for 1st communion.  Then rush home get the kids dinner.  Then take the middle one back to religion class at 6.  Was his last class before he makes his 1st communion next week.  When he came out tonight after it was over, he said awee I'm going to miss  religion.   He can be so sweet. 

So Little man has had alot of med changes the last few months.  The latest one he is on makes him eat like crazy.  Not just want to eat , he is obsessed.  Like crazy obsessed.   He has gained like 15 pounds in a month and a half.  I know!   Needless to say he is and has outgrown so many clothes quickly.  Including his underwear.  He has also gotten his junk back in his trunk.  Big ole booty.  So he is obsessed with WWE wrestling. Everyday he is someone different.  Well today I guess he choose to be someone that wears the little bikini wrestling bottoms.  I was kind of laying down, because I am sick.  He had been playing in his room, then I hear the door bell.  I'm all fuzzy, get up come down stairs and he is talking to the man in the neighborhood that delivers the newsletter.  OMG and he is in his itsy bitsy teenie weenie (no pun intended) bikinis from two years ago. When he was 20 pounds lighter.  And I swear when I say this, it looked like he had a sock stuffed in his private area.  I almost vomited.  I looked a hot mess after basically being in bed for 24 hours.  This man had to think we were part of the clown crew.  I was so embarrassed.  He was out on the porch totally chatting it up with this 70 year old man.  Bulging every where in those undies.  I said don't you ever answer the door in your underwear, let alone those bikinis.   He said like that man has never seen someone in their undies.  I'm sure he hasn't seen a sight like that before. 

Today is National Shrimp Scampi Day.  If you are in to that...... Get cookin.   Tomorrow is appointnent day in cleveland.  Ughhhh  Not feeling it . 

Thankful tidbit ...... Cough suppressant

Until the next crazy time    xo

Calgon take me away

4/25/2012

Wow!!  What a day.  Little man had another appointment in Cleveland this morning .  So we head out about 8:00.  Get on the road, and he is chatting up a strom.  Asking question after question.  If I don't like yellow cars , then does that mean I don't like lemons?  Because he knows I like lemons. They both are yellow.   Can he marry me when he gets older?  He knows the answer is no, but maybe I will change my mind, he says.  Of all the WWE wrestlers who would I like to watch fight?  Then would I want to marry them ?  On and on!!!!!  So I get about 3/4 of the way there, and I get a phone call.  It's the doctors office that we are headed to.  Some very snotty lady says to me , I am just confirming that you know your appt was canceled today.  Ummmm  no I'm almost there.  Well something to do with he had been seeing a psychatrist already in the Cleveland Clinic family, and you can't see two, or ask for a second opinion in the same hospital family .   I flipped my lid.  I said I made this appt last December.  December 13 2011 to be exact.  My son had to see another psych because he was hospitalized and in need of one till we got in to our April appt.  So then she was going to call the dr to see what he can do.  What he can do is see us when we get there in about 20 minutes.  That is what I told her .  I also said I'm on my way you better figure it out, because I DO have an app.  See you soon.  Click!  She calls back says we will see a nurse practioner. I figure whatever , I'm on my way.  As I get there word had obviously gotten out that I was heated.  Needless to say alot of ass kissing.  The appt was in a very old area of the CC.  After we are in the office with the nurse, little man blurts out ......  I'm not sure how you work in this dump.  It stinks and it's dirty.  I go in the bathroom  in the waiting area, and there is a bath tub in there.  Obviously used to be a hospital room or something.  Well this bathtub was so nasty.  It was filled with scum and dirt.  I almost vomited! 

So we leave get home an hour later, rest for about 25 minutes.  Then head to his school for an IEP meeting.  Me and the main teacher were there.  We were waiting for a representative from the other school district.  Waited 45 minutes.  Didn't show!   Ughhhhh 

We leave and are heading back home and little man says .......  Mommy do you like red cars?   Ahhhhhhh   

Thankful tidbit .....   That I am alone in my room.  ;)

Until the next crazy time    xo

Sooo tired.

4/24/2012

The girl is at musical theater, and the boys and I are in the car.  It is not going well.  The middle one almost wouldn't even come.  Little man wants to get out and play in the parking lot .   I just want them both to stop arguing with each other about how horrible it is to be here for 45 minutes.    Just hush!!!!!!  To top things off there are 4 goofball girls that are playing tag outside the main door in about a 8 ft area.  Seriously ??  These girls are on my last nerve.  I was aggravated with  their very goofy selves last week.  The whole 45 minutes I was here they were singing some stupid song.  Some of it was in Spanish.   They kept saying the same three or four spanish words.  The one girl was taping them on her phone.  They are screaming and yelling.   I know I need a chill pill, but where are the moms?  The middle one said they are not even cute.  Lol   Now they are climbing on the glass window sills.   Ok.  I'm done!  Sorry.  Things could be worse, they could be drinking hand sanitizer like the tweens are doing in California. 

Little man just fell asleep!  Thank goodness.  He yelled scootchie out the window about 50 times.  Not sure what he meant, but I'm sure it was supposed to rhyme with "scootchie. "

I got my weekly email today from the cub scouts.  Wanting to know if I would be willing to come and help set up for a end of the year party .  Ummmm Nope.  My son is not a cub scout and has never been.  Thanks for asking. 

I totally started a rumor today.  I told my mom I read a magazine today that said Jessica Simpson had her baby, it was a girl, and named it Maxi.   A couple of hours later, I see on twitter, that she can't wait to have her baby.  WTH?  I said I swear I read that, but as crazy as I've been......Who knows.  I even got snippy with a lady while I was looking at the mag.  Some lady says ohhhh you are holding the line up by reading that trash mag.  I said  , well I was wondering what Jessica Simpson named her baby.   She said , oh yea real important stuff.  I snap back,  It is to me.  Who gives a shit.  It didn't effect her.  I had scooted over to the side.     Here the magazine didn't seem to have it right, or they were saying that is how it is going to be.   I even liked the name Maxi.  Whatever!  

Thankful tidbit ...... Musical theater is over.

Crazy mommy is heading home.  Xo

Moody Monday

4/23/2012

Ahhhhhh..... Its been a few days.   I definatly did not want to get up today.  I really hate mondays. I like them because the kids are headed back to school , but mondays also mean an hour drive for appointments.  Things were pretty rushed this morning.  I get myself and little man in the car, head down the street and realize I forgot his folder with his medical info. Turn around head back.  Back on the road, and I realize I forgot to leave my daughter her house key.   Turn around again, get home and realize I did leave it.    Then it was super duper windy today.   I was all over the road.  Just  a long monday morning.  The afternoon was better, except for little man got a  kazoo from my mom.  So it was a little loud.  All I could think about was Bobby losing his kazoo on Brady Bunch.  He blamed Cindy, and Tiger the dog did it.  Anyone remember this?   I really loved me some Brady Bunch.   Every time my kids are playing with the ball, I always tell them ....... Mom  always says don't play ball in the house.  Always a lesson to be learned on that show.  

I want all the ladies to keep their chin up on this one.  I heard the percentage of women getting chin implants is on the rise.  This is due to the way ladies look on their phone/skype and their computer chatting.  Ladies are not finding them selves very attractive while chatting.  So they are running out and getting an implant to hopefully make their selves look better.  You can't really be sure though.  What if that is not the answer.  Maybe you just don't look good on camera.  Hmmmm maybe the chin implant is not the answer.

So the girl comes home today and needs three scientific questions that she can ask some big scientist this week at school, while they are skyping him.  Let me think.  I said maybe you can ask him ...... Hmmmm....let me see.   I give up.  Go ask papa, I tell her. I will help the middle one with spelling.  I'm so not good at homework anymore.  Lets be honest, I was never good at homework.  Needless to say they got some good brainy questions. 

It's National Zucchini Day.  They say they choose this day, because people are not sick of zucchini yet.  Good idea.  

Thankful tidbit ..... Sleep time is around the corner.  

Crazy mommy signing off  xo

Chilly but sunny!!!!

4/18/2012

Good morning.   A little chilly, but at least the sun is out.   The girl had Spring pictures this morning.  I asked her probably three times last night to get her clothes together.  It didn't happen.  So this morning was pretty crazy.  Every thing she wanted she couldn't find.  Almost every piece of clothing is clean.  It started out being my fault, with one quick look , she actually straightened up.  Little man was freaking out, because he thought he was going to be tardy.  So he was following me around footstep to footstep.   In the mean time the middle one had his shirt on inside out.  Ughhhh   I'm so glad spring break is over, and school is back in.   

How about this lady in the news was getting married, instead of working out the old fashion way .......  She decided to get a feeding tube to lose weight.  Are you friggin kidding me?  The only downfall  they said  is you have bad breath and severe constipation.   Maybe just curb your eating and work out a little.  What is this world coming too? 
As I'm typing this I got an email from weight watchers.  There you go bridezilla's try WW.   Not a feeding tube!  Madness!!

There was a driving instructor in my bf's city that was arrested for drunk driving while teaching children to drive.  Hmmmmm.  What's wrong with this picture?  Drops the kids off at their house or whatever, then got pulled over for being drunk.  Supposed to be teaching the kids what NOT to do.   What are thinking when you go out for a liquid lunch knowing you have to teach driving school in the afternoon?  I guess not thinking.  I would have that persons head on a platter.  Again Madness!

So get your ball s out. (Calm down)   It's  National Jugglers Day.  That is honestly one thing I have always wanted to do.  

I'm off, have a meeting at the school.  Another meeting.  This one is at the middle ones school.  I forgot to tell him.  If he sees me there and he didn't know .... He will be super nervous!   Awee

Thankful tidbit .......  35 minutes of me time this morning  

Until the next time -  Crazy Mommy  xo

Bring on the weather.... :)

4/16/2012

Gorgeous day!!  Loving the great weather!  I was just sitting outside in a parking lot, while the middle one was at religion.  I started thinking how quick it all goes.  I swear it feels like I just gave birth to him. Now he is getting ready to make his first communion in three weeks.  He is such a good boy with a soft  heart.   We get home tonight and he looks up at me and he has tears in his eyes and says I feel sorry for people that are blind.   I said yea, it would be hard. He said yep mommy,  I really respect blind people!  He is such a sweetie.  ( this was started sunday)

The girl went to see Titanic 3d this weekend with my dad.  It was the first time she had ever seen the Titanic.  She is in love with the movie.   I was so jealous. I wanted to go also.  Maybe next weekend. 

So I go to the chiropractor this morning, little man is with me.  There is a lady there that helps out part time.  As she is asking me the questions about what is wrong, he blurts out.........  She sure isn't the prettiest lady that works here.  Ughhhh  Second week in a row he has said something about that lady.   To be honest, she isn't very nice or pretty.  I did explain to him that not everyone is as pretty as his mom.  He is going to have to except it.   Lol  

So my neighbor guy is getting driveway laid today.  He is an older man.  He and his neighbor are both out there all morning.  It is the funniest thing.  Everytime these guys measure something or line something up, he and his co hort get up and go over and re measure and check it all out.  These guys doing this work have got to be like WTF?    When I got home from the chiropractor, he waved to me.  I yelled over , are you keeping those guys in line over there?  He says yep!  The worker guy looks at me , like shut the hell up.  Shakes his head and walks away.  

Today is the first day of Spring when the kids can where shorts, capris, etc.....  The middle one walks by the girls room, and she blurts out.......  You are not allowed to wear shorts.  I said yes you can.   No you can't, she responds.  After  a half hour of back and forth, I call the school.   Yep today is the day you are allowed.  I let her know.  She snaps back with , well how was I suppose to know.   Ughhhhh  Monday mornings are tough.  :(   the middle one was happy , he was right and she was wrong.    So then an argument started about that. 

Thankful tidbit  ...........  Spring break is over!

I'm outta here!   CM   xo

PS.    Today is National Librarian Day!  Head to the library to visit your favorite librarian.   I would go to the library, but I have too many things over due. 

 

Lazy Saturday

4/13/2012  ~    4/14/2012

Friday the 13th.  Well do you believe all the hoopla about this day?  Sometimes I do, and sometimes I don't.  Just when I think things aren't weird or different on this day,  something totally crazy will happen and make me rethink all my sanity.  

Well the middle kid got home and the girl left at the same time.  I love Spring Break!  Just wish little man was headed to a sleepover.  Lol

It's now 4/14/2012 ......    I fell asleep last night while typing this.  Thats what happens when you try to blog in bed.   After I dozed off last night, I woke up to the start of Silence of the Lambs.  Now that is a blast from the past.  I pretty much watched it all. Then was scared out of my mind.  I hate and always have hated scary movies.  There is something with Silence of the Lambs  that I just can't turn it off.  Maybe it's Anthony Hopkins.  Love him!!  The bf loves scary movies.   All of them, everyone every made.  Last week Michael Myers was on.  I was scared to death.  I took a melatonin just to go to sleep and not wake up.  I've always been a scardy cat. 

Might take the kids to the 3 Stooges movie.  Not my style either, But the kiddos will like it.  I would like to go see Titanic 3d.  I know that ship has sailed. However,  I did hear it was amazing in 3d.  We'll see, I really feel like laying on the couch all day.  ;) 

Is it bad to want to make cupcakes at 7:30 in the morning?  I think that sounds like a delicious breakfast.  Not healthy, but delicious.    I'm sure I will settle for oatmeal.  That does sound good as well.  Little man asked me a yesterday , if I was ever going to be that mom that cooks breakfast for her kids?  Ummmm  No.  WTH?  The girl always eats breakfast at school.  The middle one always eats cereal, with an occasional toast breakfast.  Little man just eats due to his meds. He gets up early and eats different things.  So who would I be cooking for ?  Myself?  I do cook pancakes etc on the weekends.  So I guess I'm sticking with the no, I will probably not be the mom that cooks breakfast for her kids.  :(    Again no MOY award!   

Today is Stop and look at the sky day.   It's a very grey view, however take the time.

Thankful tidbit .......  There is no eggs for cupcakes. 

Until the next time ~   CM

Another day

4/12/2012

Wheeww.... Wednesday was truly a struggle to get through.  I did have all three of my kids under the same roof last night.  However the girl was out playing most of the day.  Then this morning I got a call for the middle one to go play with his favorite cousin. The one he stayed with earlier in the week.  Then my dad called to get him.  He is going straight from there to my dads for the night.  Then the girl gets jealous, thinking she hasn't done much this week.  So she works it out that she will go to my dads when he drops off the middle one.  Then have my dad take her to her friends on saturday for the night.  I know.   It's hard to keep up.  I got dizzy typing it. 

I read in the news today about the "boyzilian".  Which is equal to the woman's brazilian bikini wax.   Now I will be honest, I wouldn't totally rule out a brazilian.  However, I'm not planning one either.  I sure don't want to think about a woman getting one, I'm not even trying to picture it.  So I sure don't want to picture a man getting this done.  It said this is not only popular in the gay world, straight men are getting it done as well.  Yuk! 

This may blow you away ........ Today is Big Wind Day, and it's not even windy.  I saw this day coming for over a week.  I was hoping with all my being that it would be windy as hell.  :(   However it is National Grilled Cheese Day.  In honor of this day, I made myself a delicious grilled cheese and tomato sandwich.  Yum yum. 

So who loves Anderson Cooper?  I do.  I think he is funny, smart and handsome.  He has the most infectious laugh.  Omg  If you have the chance download  Anderson cooper s laugh.   Love It!!!!  On the radio they were playing all these clips of his laughter.  I actually had the biggest smile and was laughing my butt off listening to him.

The girl is wanting my to play Scrabble.  Seriousl  Does she not know that I play Words with Friends all day long.  I get beat all day, but I play.  The worst thing is that I play against little man's teacher.   Beat, beat and beat.  Ughhh   Now I have age requirements.  You have to be under 12 to play me.  Even then things are shaky!!   

Thankful tidbit ......  Grilled cheese day.  Love!

Crazy mommy is heading out into the sunshine.  Xo

Another sleepover?

4/10/2012

Well it's National Sibling Day .......  Uhhhh not in this house.  The boys have fought all day.  Nothing different though.  They always pick at each other, tease , and fight.  The middle guy got home at about 6:40am.  (  I know...   Don't ask!)   By 7:00 am the boys were into an argument over what cereal there was in the cupboard.  Really?  Because one of you doesn't even eat cereal and sure as shit that was the one starting the argument.  The girl was supposed to be picked up today from her sleep over @ 9:45.  She had a chiropractor app.  I get a call of course, asking if she can stay till three to help her friend babysit.   Fine, I will pick you up at 4, I tell her.  I get there to get her, she gets in the car and says ........  Can I go to another friends house?  Wth?  You have been in the car for 10 seconds.   I'm not even kidding 10 seconds is probably pushing it.  I bet it was 7 seconds.   I said for what to play?  Then she is correcting me.  Mom!  We don't say play.  I'm like listen this isn't the Dork Diaries.  Mom ,  that was on Diary of a  Wimpy Kid.  Ughhh  I can't seem to get it right.  Any way she is off to spend the night again.   I guess thats what spring break is for.   :)   

All I heard today was that little man wanted crabby patties ( hamburger s)  for dinner.  So I whip up some crabby patties, and he decides he is allergic to them.  I informed him that everyone who is allergic to crabby patties is also allergic to ice cream.  Since we just bought some ice cream, that would be a true shame if he were allergic to crabby patties.  Well he decided he could probably get  12 bites of CP down.  Whew!  Then he said can we have CP tomorrow?  Ummmm  NO! 

Did you all see the person I believe it was  in Florida, that was giving butt injections?  I have always said if I could get butt implants I would.  Still feel that way, well until today that is.  This person was injecting all sorts of things into these ladies' butts.  She put fat from animals, food, culk, and even cement.   Why you ask???? Because it was the cheaper route to take.  Seriously?  Now this gives a new meaning to junk in the trunk! 

Thankful tidbit .....  That there is ice cream in the house!  ;)

I'm outta here!    CM   xo

Sleep overs rock!

4/9/2012

Ahhhh  little man is back to school today.  It is for only 3 hours a day , but still!  Ahhhh  The middle guy went to his cousins house this morning, I guess he is coming home tomorrow morning.  Then I fell asleep took a quick nap. When I woke up the girl had all kinds of options for her.  I said why dont we do something today? She responded with,   well we see each other alot.... So I was thinking I would hang out with some friends.   Ummmm ok!   So it was just little man and myself.  He told me I was pretty much a boring person.  Thanks.  I said what would you want me do that is not so boring.  He said  dancing for one thing. You should dance more often.  Lol   Ok I will get right on that. 

How about the families of the Titanic were going on a remembrance memorial cruise, when high winds picked up.  They ended up canceling the trip.  Good call.  I mean these people have to be a little gun shy anyway.  If I felt my hair blow in the slightest bit, I would be heading for the hills.  We don't need a sequel ! 

Just an FYI , the cub scout meet ing was canceled for this week.  Yep another email. I even got a response last week, that they would remove us from the list.  If I keep getting them, I'm going to call them and ask where our fire and knot tie ing badges are?  And when am I getting my Mom of the Year award for running the great camp out this year.   That will get them moving and maybe we will even get an award out of it. 

Well with two kids at sleep overs, and the other is sleeping, I think I am heading to bed to catch up on my reading!!

Thankful tidbit .......  Sleep overs!

Until the next crazy time -  CM
