"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
"Wow! What a Ride!"

What's next?

You ever wake up in the morning and feel like something just isn't right?  I have been trying lately to see the cup as half full but today something is just whispering in my ear to scream out loud, "Who drank my freakin drink!" ha!For the most part I have everything I've ever wanted, so why am I feeling so unfulfilled?  I feel as if I have reached this point in my life when all of a sudden I'm standing still.....really, motionless. I need a new perspective, new goals, new passion to drive my arse off the coach...maybe I will take up running, it seems to be everyone's new favorite past time. Now to find someone to watch these kids while I jog off into the sunset.

One of Many Disneyland Trips

Our recent trip to Disneyland was a rough one to say the least. Although, it was a lot of work we still had fun.  I am so ready to sell my triple Joovey stroller!! =/ My kids are way too heavy for it which made it nearly impossible to turn. I have also decided that my mom is not a good one to take with to help out with the boys, let's just say we went on Friday and it is now Monday and she is still not talking to me HAHA!! Every time she was to watch one of the kids I would turn around and one of the boys were gone. And sometimes after parking the stroller, unlatching the twins, I would turn around and she was completely gone with my other 2 kids!! The stress was unbearable at times...before the xanax kicked in I might have screamed a F word here or there...

The kids had fun picking out there new Disney hats!! Indy wanted the Minnie hat with the big red bow, but grandma said, "no way!!" I was gonna let him get it because I couldn't resist his cute little face saying, "my Minnie, my Minnie." When he put the Minnie hat on his head and looked in the mirror his face lit up, he even stood a little taller. Grandma was persistent in changing his mind, thus the reason he is wearing the Mickey sorcerer hat. My heart still breaks that I didn't buy him the one he "really" wanted =(

Park, Police, and Pee


The kids all had fun at the park today. It was however cut short due to the once again locked bathrooms and a lady who brought her unleashed dogs. The twins are SO afraid of anything furry (not sure who they inherited this from) LOL! Indy had to pee so bad, stomping his poor little feet as we attempted to leave the park we quickly realized we were blocked in by the police.  They had pulled over a car and told me that I would have to wait about five minutes (YA RIGHT!!) I told the officer, "That's fine but if my kid can't hold his pee any longer I'm gonna point him right at you." (apparently one officer thought I was humorous and the other one not so much) =/




So as we waited the kids watched as the police ended up hand cuffing the guy, searching his vehicle, and finally combing his body of tattoos for gang affiliation (did I mention even his entire head was tatted!) Ya like I said earlier, five minutes my @ss!! Luckily I had a nice older man pictured above that told the cops what he thought of the city park's locked bathroom and blocking the street when my kids have to pee. (yes sir felt like he adopted me) =) The last thing our city officers said to me after letting the tattooed man go was, "Hope they make it!" Jerks!!!! obviously they have NO kids.


I was just thankful that Indy actually made it home to pee otherwise he would never had, had the chance to ruin the last roll of toilet paper in the house!

First Post Ever!!!

Okay so here it goes...I'm sure once I get past the first initial post I won't be able to stop. I have worked on this blog for about a week and sit here periodically through the day just staring at it, LOL!

Anyways...Well today Mataya had me thinking about what a shitty mom she thinks I am (to not give her my own heart if she need it) so to make up for any preconceived notions she had of me =) I did what any "giving heart" type of mom does for her daughter, I took her and signed her up for gymnastics!! Yes I know, MOM of the Year title, here I come!! She was so excited, she was ready 2 hrs ahead of time! I guess I better make sure I sign up to be a donor tomorrow ;)
