Sometimes Meds are not enough!

Well..I totally lost it yesterday!  In order to communicate with my husband, I had to text him and tell him how I felt.  Then he calls me 6 times...which I did NOT answer!  I had to go to work and vent to my BF Ash.  I feel bad talking bad about things to her, because she is about to get married.  But, sometimes you just have to get things off your chest!  I just do so much and don't feel appreciated for anything I do.  Maybe I'm feeling sorry for myself, but I don't think I am.  My husband and I don't communicate at all....Problem!!!  I do everything around this house.  I told him if he couldn't help me out, then hire me a house keeper.  Waiting, Waiting, Waiting...still no help and no house keeper.  I just can't take it anymore!   I work too!  Plus, I now take care of a little girl, 2 dogs and a husband.  Why am I responsible for everything???  So...here is whay I would like to see......

and a little less of this!


Is that too much to ask???

So I finally talked to him yesterday and told him how I feel...again..We will see what happens!  I would hate to see him end up again like this!
  
The thing is that I love him so much...I just need help!  God please help us through this hard time.  I didn't get married to this man to get a divorce.  The Bible says, "Love conquers ALL."  I will believe in this!

So..enough on that subject!  I totally got pissed off at my brother from his FB post the other night.  We all know he could care less for my parents!  He only likes them when they are doing something for him.  Here is his latest post:  "I have the best parents in the world, a new house, plenty of land and a beautiful family."  Ok, so if you have the best parents in the world....why don't you treat them like it?  You don't call for mother's/father's day, you don't call on b-days and you def never buy them anything!  The only reason he wrote that because not only did they give him $5K for a house...they ended up giving him even more money to the buy the land beside his house.  I know it's none of my business...but when is enough going to be enough?  My parents are trying to retire and with him sucking every penny out of them, it will never happen.  It's none of my business, but I just have to vent!  My mom and dad gave up everything to put me through college, and when I finally started making $$$, I stopped taking from them.  If they did give me $$, I paid them back.  I have enough sense to know when enough is enough!  No more Todd!  Please stop!  You are sucking the LIFE out of both of them!!  So...here is a pic to tell you how I fell about it!!
  

Well...we booked Samantha's trip to Texas yesterday.  She is going for 2 whole weeks.  I hope she acts nice...because my mom doesn't put up with any crap!  I think it will be a nice break.  She is also going to Alabama for a week in June.  At least these things will keep her busy for a while!  She is always so bored in the Summer.  I'm happy for her!  Mom and dad are going to take her to Carlsbad Caverns..so she will love that!!!  Have fun baby!  You deserve it!!
 
And the best part of the trip is...She gets to spend it in my beloved state!

Well..back to work for me tonight!  I'm only back for 1 night...so that will be easy!  We are going to have a bbq with the Velde's and Parriss's tomorrow at the beach.  That should be nice!  We are going to celebrate memorial day!

And, last but not least..thank a veteran this weekend.  They give up their life and families to defend our country!  Sometimes, I don't think they get appreciated enough!  Thank you to my grandfathers who both served and my daddy!  I love you!


Please help me to remember...Love is patient, Love is kind etc!

Peace Out!

Martha Stuart in the house!....NOT!

Well, as you know we attended a wedding this weekend.  On every table was a cake.  This inspired me to try and make a cake for my bff Ash's wedding.  Actually, I thought I could do better than the cakes at the wedding...well maybe not so much!  Anyway, I went and spent about $140 and bought the stuff.  I started making little cherry blossom flowers yesterday, and they turned out really cute!  This inspired me to maybe start my own cake company called::::  Cakes Couture (sp???) by Holley.  Ha! Ha!  Maybe I should learn to spell it first.  So, I made fondant and put it in the fridge along with 4 strawberry cakes.  This a.m. I frosted them with cream cheese icing (oh so delish!)  Then comes the hard part...the fondant.  This time it turned out much thicker than last time.  There were many, many flaws with the fondant.  Anyway, I got the cakes covered.  This is only my 2nd fondant cakes...so give me a break.  The cakes are a bit crooked, but not too bad.  I mixed brown frosting and started covering the mistakes with the cherry blossom branches.  A disaster to say the least!  Anyway...on to the flowers and the love birds for the cake topper.  These are all things Ash likes...what can I say..I tried!  And here folks...is the end result!.  The first is the cake I was modeling...and here is mine...not so great..but I gave it alot of effort!



So there it is!  A rookie fondant cake!
Well, ta!ta! for now!  P.S.  Can't you crazy people just let a girl be excited about getting married??  How about some questions...a little support maybe?  She's not asking for much!  I'm sorry you guys are so miserable and jealous because she has made something of herself!  This is all I have to say:  "Don't HATE...Appreciate!"

Overall nice weekend!

Well, we had a pretty busy weekend.  Saturday at noon we had Cayden's 6th birthday party.  Jen had wraps, chicken tenders, dips and drinks for us to snack on.  The kids had a slip and slide to play on  and water balloons.  They had a good time and Cayden got lots of presents.  He is so cute and had quite the turn out for his party.  Happy B-Day to Cayden!!

That afternoon we had Brooke's wedding.  Of course it was beautiful!  Her bridesmaids wore a long gown in a plum color.  Her colors were the colors in a peacock feather.  It was really pretty!  The reception was at Meadowoods...which was really nice.  Each table was adorned with it's own cake made with carrot cake.  There were candles all around and the tables had coaster (with the bride and groom's pics inside) and crowns with the names of their guests.  Really a cute idea.  They had open bar and the meal consisted of fish and steak.  Overall it was all really good.  The only complaint I had was that it was really, really drawn out.  The wedding was at 5:00 and we were at the reception by 6:00.  We didn't eat dinner until 9:00.  By the time we ate and cut the cake we were ready to go.  The dancing didn't get started until about 10:00 and we left at 10:30.  I liked the way we did our wedding.  We had open bar the whole time, ate and started the party!  There was no lag time...it just flowed really well.  Of course no wedding goes without a little drama!  I guess Kim invited Aunt Doris and her daughter, but Doris brought her grand daughter instead.  Kim said she didn't invite the grand daughter and when we went to be seated...Kim didn't have the grand daughter a seat.  She sat them with us, so ninny felt really bad.  We eventually got the little girl a chair and I think the drama was over.  In my experience with weddings, people always bring people that were not invited.  I don't think people realize how expensive it is to feed everyone and serve free drinks.  That was pretty rude of Kim to do that, but I kind of know how she feels!  For exaample, we invited Kim and Billy ONLY and when she RSVP's....we had 7 more people on the RSVP.  She wrote and asked us if we had forgotten all 3 of her kids, their dates/wives and 1 kid.  Really???  I found this really rude!!!  Well, I guess things always come back and bite you in the ass!!!  Anyway, enough about wedding drama!  No wedding is complete without it! Ha! Ha!





This a.m. started out with a bang!  I got awaken by Samantha saying "Holley!  Roxy pooped in her cage!"  I jumped out of bed and sure enough I had a "present" awaiting me!  Plus, for a bonus I had paw marks of poop all over my carpet, tile etc.  This means she had done this when Jeff let her out at 6:00 a.m.....and he just didn't see or smell it????  Really???  And my family wonders why I'm such a psycho???  My work is never ending!  And, where is the help????  NO WHERE!
So, yesterday we decided we would put Jeff's beloved Jeep on craig's list and try to sell it.  Of course before we could do that, it had to be cleaned.  And who ended up cleaning the whole jeep by herself.....ME!!!  Yeah, not one finger did he lift to help me!  Supposedly he was going to get his motorcycle running so we could sell it too.  Unfortunately....it is still in a million pieces in the garage.  Shocking!  Needless to say...again I do everything around this house.  Every time that Jeep has been cleaned, I've been the one to do it.  Now he wants to buy some fancy truck with leather in it?  Why?  You don't even clean your Jeep.  I just don't get it????  If I pay alot of $$ for something, I'm going to keep in clean and nice.  Maybe I was just raised differently.....but this is intolleralbe!  OK, enought bithching for now!  Oh, and one more thing...Jeff wants a baby?  Why?  To look at?  He won't help me at all with a baby.  You should see how he acts when I ask him to take HIS dog out...You would think it was going to kill him!  I'm so over it!  NO BABY for ME!!!!  NO WAY!
Well, guess I'll wrap it up for now.  I've got to take my little princess to the vet at 11:00 a.m.  She has a bad ear infection.  Poor baby!
Oh, and I must add...I bought Zumba videos yesterday.  Just call me Christina..ha! ha!  It comes with weighted Miracas...kind of like the shake weight!  Oh yeah baby!  Ha! Ha!

8 days off...what to do?


Well, it's been a while since I've blogged!  So here goes some more randomness.   We had our girls day out and it was fabulous!  Ash found a dress and of course her size 2 figure looks great in it.  She is going to be so beautiful that day!  I cannot wait!  She is using the color of this sash for her bridesmaids.  It is called "mermaid" and it is very Floridaish!  Ash is such a simple girl but thats what I love about her!  We are so different, but alike in many ways.  She's a great friend of mine even though I'm 10 years older than her.  She's been through alot in her life and was raised very different than I was.  She is very "liberal" compared to me, but she thinks I'm just boring! Ha! Ha!

Well, we got new on our house yesterday.  It sounds good, but i'm nervouse to get too excited!  The sellers are packin up to move out.  The bank has accepted our offer, but they owe so much on the house they are going to still have to pay for it long after they move out.  It's really sad, but I guess it's better than letting it go in to foreclosure.  I can't wait to have my "own" house and have an amazing pool!  I can just see mom, dad, granny and I setting out under the patio just relaxing.  I can't wait!  Oh and did I mention..it has a hot tub?  It's just awesome and I've always wanted a pool.  I'm ready to get this going because I have to re-carpet and have the house repainted.  I'm ready to get in because I have company coming in July and August.  Let the packing begin!



     Tomorrow is going to be a busy day!  We have Cayden's b'day party at 12:00 and then Brooke's wedding at 5:00.  I can't wait!  It is supposed to be really fancy and have an open bar.  Plus it gives me a reason to dress up...and I look for any reason to do that.  Can't wait to see it!  Best wishes to Brooke and Eric!











Well, guess I'll close for now!  It is a beautiful day and I should be going to the beach for a tan.  Maybe later!  I've been spring cleaning all morning...so I think I will just stay here and rest for a while!

Wedding Stuff!

This one is made with pearls.  I'm going to make one with crystals to see which one you like best!

So, Ash had decided she doesn't want to wear a veil.  She has chosen to wear a flower in her hair.  They are $50 at David's Bridal!  So, I bought some stuff for $6 and here is one that I have come up with so far.  I'm going to make different ones and let her choose the one she likes best.  I wanted a more tropical looking flower, but this is all I could find at Michaels right now.  I think the first one came out pretty cute!
This is just one of them Ash!  I will do more, but see what you think! 
I'm so happy for you and you looked BEAUTIFUL yesterday!

Weight Watchers to the RESCUE!!!



Well, I've been on ww for 1 week now. I only lost 3.2 lbs, but hey it's a start!  I feel better already!  Just 18 lbs to go!




Saturday night I called in to work for the first time ever.  I felt really bad, but needed a "mental health" day...if you know what I mean.  I layed around and did nothing for most of the day.  We ate at home that night and I made my husband some ceviche.  I tried it, because I love sushi, but I couldn't stand the consistency of it.  I decided to have something else.  He's eating it for left overs this week.  yuck!
So, I've decided when you get a call after 9:00 p.m. from my house it is never good.  I guess Jeff put the dogs up in the bed and Roxy peed.  He had to wash the sheets and the comforter etc.  I was NOT happy!  She is not to sleep in our bed anymore!  No questions asked!!!!  Needless to say..my comforter has to go to the cleaners....that will be expensive!  On my drive home this a.m. my husband called again.  Samantha said the dog had pooped in the cage...again!  WTH?  So, I rush home only to find a pile of shit waiting just for me.  I took Roxy to the bathtub, rinsed off her cage and went back in to the house.  I decided to take her out again just to make sure she was done.  While out there, our neighbor stopped and said, "Excuse me...can you please pick up all of the poop in my yard?"  I said, "my husband did that yesterday."  Of course, I was livid!  So I called Jeff and told him of my total humiliation!  Ridiculous!  What happened to Jeff taking care of the dog????  In the meantime, while I'm on the phone, the dog has chewed up the remote control to the TV.  Yeah!  It was a good morning at my house as you can see!  Frustrating to say the least!  I threatened to take her to the SPCA this morning.  Then I look in to her pouty little face and know I could never do that!  I'm a dog lover at heart.  So, I'm over it!

I found out tonight, that my friend from Texas already booked their flights for August!  I can't wait!!!  Yippee!

Well, I'm off until next Wednesday.  I really want to enjoy my time off.  Maybe even go run the bridge.  Maybe that will help me get some of this disgusting weight off my ass!  Wednesday, Ash, Christina and Tiff are going to West Palm for "girls day out."  I can't wait!  We are going dress shopping then out for Mexican food at Cantina Laredo.  We are going to have Margaritas, Guacamole and who knows what else!  I guess weight watchers will be out for that day!  I hope we have a good time!!!
Well, enough rambling for now!
Adios'

More randomness....


So, yesterday I went and got my hair cut off!  OMG...not good!  I just don't think it looks good on me!  Oh well!  What's done is done!  It a done deal now!  It will grow back...It feels good at least!
Well, guess I can spread the new now!  Ash and Brad are engaged!  Yippee!  Wedding dress shopping on May 19th!  Christina, Ash and I are headed to West Palm to Davids Bridal.  I can't wait!  Ash is so skinny, she could wear any dress and look beautiful!  It's going to be an outside wedding, so she prob needs to go simple, and I'm sure she will!  She will look fab as always!  I'm so excited, I can't wait!!!  I so wish I was a wedding planner.  I just love weddings...as if you didn't know!
Today, Samantha and I went to see Letters to Juliet.  It was so good!  Such a great chick flick!  I loved it.  One of the best I've seen in a while!  Then we went to the all famous Hurricanes to have lunch.  I had a salad with two beers and Samantha had kids wings.  It was delic as always!  I feel like I cheated on my diet.  The beers were 4 point a piece and the salad couldn't have been that much because it is basically grilled chicken salad with hot sauce on it.  I have to get this weight off.  I'm so over being big!  None of my cute little clothes fit anymore and I refuse to buy more!!!  Wish me luck in this endeavor!
23 lbs to go!
We are going to dinner as a fam tonight.  Not sure where we will go, but I will be happy to spend some time with my hubby .  I never see him anymore.  Maybe we will have some much needed conversation!
Well, back to work tomorrow!  I just can't seem to stay away from that place.  Oh well, you don't make $2200 check for C...I'm not bragging or anything!  LOL!
Caio for now!

Date Night!

Well, Saturday we took Samantha to her grandparents house and we went out to dinner for date night!  We went with GT and Nikki out to Avanzarre.  It is at Itallian restaurant and I love the atmosphere!  We got there and GT had not made reservations yet, so Jeff and I went to the bar.  I started the evening with a Pinot Noir.  Yummy...my new fav red wine thanks to Jen!  When GT got there, of course he knew the owner so we got seated immediately.  Good ol' GT!  GT also knew the waiter so we got a great bottle of Shirraz for a great price.  I stopped at 3 glasses of wine, since my prior endeavors with wine haven't turned out so well!  I ordered chicken picatta which was really delish!  Jeff got the raw steak as usual.  We started out with their yummy bread and olive oil dip with spices.  it is so good!  Then, Jeff and  GT ordered steal tar tar for an appetizer.  All and all it was great!  Then we decided to go have a drink at the former "under tow" which is now called Stax. They have really improved that place!  We only had one drink and decided to call it a night.  It's alway great to do dinner with these guys.  We had a great night!

So, Sunday was mother's day.  I got a dozen pink roses and a nice card.  We started the morning at church, breakfast then off to wal-mart for grocery shopping.  We cooked out at Aunt Joyce's and I made a delicious peach cobbler.  I have to say, It was one of my best!  All in all it was a relaxing day.  I got to take a nice nap and just relax.  Always great when I get to take a nap.
Well, it's back to work for me tonight!  We are going to look at 2 more houses today that aren't short sales.  We are feeling a little discouraged about the one in Falcon Trace.  I really pray we get it...but in reality, we may not.
Well, I'm really hoping my friend Ash is having a wonderful time in the keys, and my parents and granny have a great time in Branson!  God please keep them all safe in their travels!  They all deserve a great vacay!
Well, enough rambling for one day!  Off to bed with my 2 angels for a little R&R.

I'm really giving up on ever getting a house in Florida!

So, my realtor keeps calling/writing to see what's up with the house.  We got a verbal 2 weeks ago...and still waiting.  I've got planning and friends coming down to visit.  Really?  Get this shit on the road already!  I've bought cute decorations for the pool that are just setting around the house.  Please God let us get this house!  If we don't, we will be starting all over again because all houses in Vero are is short sale.  I just want to get settled in.
Feeling really bummed right now!

All I want tomorrow is some really good, uninterrupted sleep and no poop to clean up!

More drama in the classroom...

So of course we had major drama when Samantha came home from school!  I guess one of her so called friends went and told Samantha's teacher that Samantha said she was gay.  This little girls mom is the one that told Samantha Mrs. Vannoy and Coach D are gay.  Samantha is curious about them, but I have never told her that they were gay.  She came home all red faced and crying.  When I called Jeff, of course he blamed me because I'm always making jokes to him about it.  How is it, that everything that goes wrong in this family is my fault???  I have never, never told Samantha her teacher was gay.  So, needless to say, Jeff had to call Mrs. Vannoy and tell her the real story.  Samantha has done something to make these 2 little girls mad, because they have been ganging up on her alot lately.  I hope I don't have to go up to school and take care of these little (i mean big) b*@%$

To cut or not to cut..that is the ????

I like this haircut and this color!

So, as you probably know, I have naturally curly hair.  Have I told you that there is absolutely nothing I can do with it but grow it long, or cut it off short?  It's been long for a very long time now and I want to cut it off!  I know I may regret it, but it will grow back.  My husband is having a fit about it.  He told me if I cut my hair, he is going to shave his head.  We cannot have that!  I do NOT  like his head shaved...it is worse than bad!  But, anyway...I need a change!  Should I cut it off to my shoulders or not????  Help!!!

Marsh Landing...Enough Said!

So, I survived my field trip with Samantha.  After stressing out on what to wear, I went with something more casual.  I wanted to wear a sundress, but she made a "big" deal about how I over-dress for everything!  So, I looked "normal."  So, I showed up to school and went to her classroom.  Her teacher greeted all the parents...except for me.  I think someone told her I don't approve of her lifestyle.  She didn't even acknowledge my presence!  Oh, well!  So needless to say I felt a "little" uncomfortable!  We loaded up on the yellow dog and headed to Fellsmere.  We got seated (I got seated with the "bad" kids...which I kept in check with no prob!) at the long picnic table with dead animals hanging over our heads.  Nice!  Anyway we had a spread of alligator tail, frog legs, chicken, catfish, french fries, cole slaw and mac and cheese.  Disgusting! Everything tasted like fish and the alligator tail was so tough i couldn't even chew it.  Then we took a tour of Marsh Landing  to see more dead animals on the walls. http://www.marshlandingrestaurant.com/index.html



  Then back to the yellow dog and back to school.  I was home by 1:00 p.m.  I thought Samantha was thankful for me going with her till this a.m.  She proceeded to tell me how all of the other parents stayed for a presentation of their projects on animals.  That's funny, because some of the parents left when I did.  She doesn't appreciate anything I do for her.  I had only 2 days off and spent one going with her.  She told me yesterday she didn't even do her presentation.  When I brought it up this a.m. she said she didn't get to do hers because I didn't stay.  I think I've been around more that her mother has..so why is it never enough??  Maybe I just won't do that again!  So much for trying to be nice!
Yesterday I decided to go get a pedi...which was much needed!  It was so relaxing I almost fell asleep.  I got a dark blue and Samantha got purple.  It's a color I've never tried before...but it looks pretty cute.  Pics to come!
Tonight I work at St Lucie West.  Hope I have a good night!  It should be a nice break from my usual routine.  Ash called me last night griping about Crystal.  How do we send people home all weekend and she calls people in?  Crazy how that works!  If she would take a few more tx's we wouldn't be over budget from calling people in when not needed.  No wonder we don't get raises!  We are paying people call pay to come in so Crystal doesn't have to work!  I've talked to Karen, but seem to get blown off!  The staff needs to rally together and get this taken care of!  There is nothing else I can do.  I'm over it!  I just feel sorry for my staff.  I'm lucky because I don't really have to work with her anymore.  We think totally different.  We see nothing eye to eye.
So this is my 2nd day of trying to be more aware of my "picking" problem.  I've been trying to be more aware...so far i think I'm doing pretty good.  God, please help me through this!  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!
Well, gotta run for now!  I've got laundry, house cleaning, taking care of the dogs etc. to do.  God will I ever get any help???  P.S. My husband wants to add a baby on top of all this?  Really??   Unless he starts contributing..that may not be happening.  I'm 120% over loaded right now.  Now I've picked up a dog and taking Samantha to school...but I'm not bitching or anything!  Ha! Ha!
So long for now!

Dermatillomania

So, last night at work, I decided to look up reasons why people pick their face.  I discovered a diagnoses called dermatillomania.  It is defined as constant picking of the skin.  It is most common in women and is a form of self mutalation..WTH?? I'm def not a self mutilator!  It is linked to OCD, which I have already been diagnosed with.  My question is...how do I stop?  This is a thing that people do and don't even know they are doing it.  It's not something I do just to do.  My dad says, "Why can't you just stop picking your face??  I guess, according to the literature, it is subconcious.  This is a way people relieve stress and anxiety.  What is the cure??  Medication...which I'm on and hasn't done a thing, behavioral therapy and really nothing else!  Frustrating!!!  All I want is to look normal again!  I'm constantly trying to cover my face.  It's embarassing!  I've got  to train myself to STOP doing this!  I will fight until the end to stop.  I've never been a person to have blemishes.  It's embarassing and ugly!
So, the fight starts today!  I have to train myself to keep my hands off my face.  Some people pick their whole bodies...I just pick my face.  I have permanant scarring that will probably never go away.  I'm going to post the link so you can read about this more....very interesting and disturbing!  Why have I started to do this????  I don't know, but i will beat it!
Maybe I am crazy like Ash say...ha!ha!
So long for now!  So much picking to do and so little time!

Napa Valley...Here We Come!!!

So, In September Jeff and I are flying to San Francisco for one of my besties weddings.  We are flying in on the 20th and driving to Napa in our convertible PT Cruiser.  We are going to stay at the Hyatt Vineyard then attend Lee and Will's wedding on the 21st at the Vintners Inn. I'm excited beyond words!  I have been wanting to go to Napa for the longest time.  The wedding is going  to be outside the Vintners Inn and the recpetion at the restaurant there at the hotel.  It is absolutely beautiful and I'm sure the wedding will be as well.  The next day will be a long one for Jeff.  We are going with the bride and groom to a winery.  Can't wait to wine taste.  For some reason, wine is always better tasting at the winery.  I just love the atmosphere there.
The next day we will drive back to San Fran to our Hotel called Hotel Adagio.  There are a million things we want to see and do.  So much to do...so little time!  It is going to be fabulous!
On Friday, Lee and Will are coming to spend the weekend with us.  We are going to a brewery with them.  I can't wait!  I have never been to a brewery...so I'm mucho excited.  Maybe I will find a new fav beer  to add to my collection. 
I'm sure the trip will fly by and we will be flying home before we know it.  We can't wait and hope to have a fabulous time!  It will be a much needed vaca for both of us!
Well, in closing...I have to say..I hope Lee and Will have a wonderful and blessed life together.
TaTa for now.

I'm smelling a wedding in the future...and we all know I love weddings!!!

One of my besties is going to be having a wedding soon!  Well, about a year from now!  So much to do...so little time!  I can't wait!  I absolutely love weddings!  She hasn't really told anyone yet, but we are already planning!  So excited for her!!!!


Patio decor for a house I don't even have yet...

Well...here I sit again...at work of course!  Is this the way life was intended to be?  I think you should be able to enjoy your life...not spend alot of it working.  Anyway..thank you God for my job!
So, lately I feel a little neglected by my husband...I can't even remember the last "date night" we had.  I would really like to go out to a nice dinner, just us.  We have hardly talked at all this week.  Between him working and me working nights...it's just not there.  Maybe I will just have to bring it up to him.  We need time just the two of us every now and then
Today, our english bulldog started bleeding...i called the ver and he assured me she was ok.  I always say, you get what you pay for.  They were much cheaper than my vet.  I will feel really bad it something happens to her sweet little face!  I'm praying she is ok!
I called home today...and of course...mom and dad were helping Todd move...again!  He totally consumes their whole life.  Please mom and dad...just move to Fl.  There would be alot less drama that way!
So..once again I feel like my mother and father law don't have our back when it comes to raising Samantha.  They send pics to her mothers family behind our back and run to Samantha's aid as soon as she calls.  I guess they think we are just awful parents...little to they know..we put up with a lot of shit from her.  I asked my husband today to please say something...but he would rather just keep the peace..so I doubt anything will get said.  They really need to work with us...not against us.
I was really mad when I got home this a.m.  My fav bedspread had a big cut in it.  I stayed up to sew it before I went to bed.  I feel like nobody at my house respects my nice things.  I don't know how I'm going to react when we get a new house...OCD  will def be kicking in!  If I pay alot for something....I want it taken care of.  Is that so much to ask?
So, last night I did a "little shopping."  I spent $100 on decorations for our patio at our new house.  I couldn't pass these things up.  They were oh so cute!  The prob is...we  haven't even got a contract in writing yet!  Either way they will get used...someday!  I will have to post pics later...you will know why I purchased it.  So cute!
Today on the radio, I was listening to what men look at when they see you.  Of course my "vain" ass thought it was the way you were dressed or your "big" boobs etc.  I was wrong according to the radio.  I learned that they usually judge you by the friends you are hanging out with.  Shocking!  I have always surrounded myself with "high maintenance" girls.  Maybe that's why I never had many guys trying to pick me up.  I was always told I was "unapproachable."  Oh well!  Who cares now!  Look what I got while hanging out with my parents!  A wonderful loving husband!  Ha!  Maybe the studies are right!
Well, so far I have stayed on my "eating better" binge 2 whole days.  I'm trying not to call it a diet because I still want to have my weekly beer.  How will I ever give this up if I become prego?  I guess it will be O'doul's to the rescue!  ha!ha!
Well, enough of my BS for now.  Until later....adios'
