The facts of life

You take the good
you take the bad
you take them both
and there you have...

the random spewing thoughts of my mind....

Don't rely on people to make you happy, people will always let you down.

A 7 year old boy with a bloody nose and allergies can make your bathroom look like a crime scene in .06 seconds.

Teenage boys really are from a different planet.

If you are going to criticize someone for being messy, take a gander in the mirror first.

I have several groups of friends, yet manage to hold the same role in all groups.. the "oh yah ......and Amy" role..

If your missing anything in this house, look up! Odds are Connor taped it to the ceiling.

13 year old girls can be fairly surly.

I follow (in a complete legal non-stalking manner) NKOTB and  will continue to attend as many concerts as possible as long as they tour... WHAT!?  Danny Wood is magically delicious..

Car batteries are touchy.

Most things can be fixed with a screwdriver!

You know your done, when you find left over pieces.

A touch of crazy , never hurts.

Most things are better with age, just not milk...

Appreciate those around you, you never know what tomorrow brings.

You can't control how others act, however you can control how you REACT.

Apples to Apples is a full contact sport.

Being alone isn't really my thing.

AZ was bad for my diet.

Adore those who adore you, it makes life easier.

I have been blessed by some pretty spectacular people in my life.. hopefully I don't scare them off.

I will never see the point of highwaisted jeans. With my tiny torso, the button would be just under my chin!

I need to go to bed earlier, some of the 2 a.m. infomercials are looking pretty temping.

Behold the power of a ten year old having a bad day.

117 degrees regardless of it being a "dry heat" is just ridiculous!

Don't use the eleptical bare foot.

It's ok to need others, just never lose your own independence. Be your own champion!

Because we are military wives

By -
We spend 4 hours with our husbands in a uniform shop, followed by two hours looking for the right size of boot, because any time together right before a deployment is still time together. We try not to take the little things for granted for they become the biggest things when we don't have them any more. We stand in tears on piers, and are comforted and comfort women we've never met, because we all are feeling the same way. We cringe a little when people say "your so strong" because inside we are dying. We put on a strong face for our kids, so we can dry their tears, and calm their fears, and hide away that we have the same ones. We sleep alone most of the time, we worry, we cry, and we get up the next day and face life head on. We try to smile and brush it off, when people who don't know any better tell us how lucky we are because of all the "benefits."Medical, housing et al.. Not having to pay for a physical really doesn't make up for all the mi...

parental poll

By -
A friend made a comment today that got me thinking. (dangerous I know) So, I was wondering, (if ya'll wouldn't mind chiming in) at what age your kids either did or will do the following activities... ok so survey says..... How old was/ or will you child be when you let them.... play outside with no parental supervision- sleep over at a friend's house - wear make-up - have a bed time later than 7:30 - go on a date - there are no right or wrong answers here, just curious.  Everyone is different and what works for one may not work for another, so no answers will be judged.. I am just wondering where I fall in the averages :)

I have a friend

By -
I have a friend who I am blatantly stealing this blog idea from. She inspires me, even when she doesn't know she's doing it. She balances me, she isn't afraid to tell me I'm being ridiculous, and loves me when I am. I have a friend who makes me laugh always. She's colorful, in personality and language, and has a heart of pure gold when it comes to her friends and family. I have a friend who I like to live vicariously through, the things she does, amazes me. I have a friend who is beautiful inside and out. She shows caring and compassion in times when I am not sure I could.  I have a friend who has been by my side forever, and I know she will always be right there (even when miles separate us) I have a friend who amazes me with her courage. She looked straight into the face of death and said "not gonna happen", she is strong, she is brilliant she is a true survivor. I have a friend  who has shown me how to walk through the tough parts of life.  ...
