Crack

I haven't much felt like updating lately, and not really sure if anyone even reads this anymore, but if you do, here's the update. I got my Mommy tattoos which are finally almost fully healed and I love, even if most people don't, I have always marched to my own beat anyway. The kids are out of school, I got lucky and a spot opened for Jackson for ESP for the summer. The first two weeks he goes full time, then after he will be drop in , I can let him go as much or as little as I want. That's great because I want to spend as much time as possible with him before he starts school this fall. Still no idea about where Elena will go, she'll probably stay with me the summer and in the fall I HAVE to find something for her, hopefully something that will match Jackson's school hours.

I won Metallica tickets and their new CD, hubby had been wanting to go, but I didn't want to shell out the bucks, so this was great!! We've been working like mad, fortunately my Mom had the kids for a few days, I missed them horribly and was so happy to get them back. That happiness was short-lived though as I broke my foot while in my neighbor's yard, there was a giant hole that I didn't see, guess who found it? lol I went to the dr the next morning, sure enough, broken, fortunately I still had my crutches from last time I sprained my ankle, so I'm hobbling along very slowly right now. Fortunately my Mom took the kids for a couple more days since I am supposed to stay off my feet. I miss them soooo much!!! I was so depressed on my way back home after dropping them off. I'm supposedly going to be out of commission for 6-8 weeks, which really sucks because John is so busy working, plus he definitely isn't a nurturing take care of you kind of guy, and I can't do much right now and I have a million things that I need to do. I'm so frustrated and upset right now. I have to go to an orthopaedist this week, and I pray I can get a boot so I can be a little more mobile. I'm trying not to let this all get me down, but I'm depressed, lonely and pretty irritated about it all right now.

Same old stuff here, hubby's working most of the time, the kids are nuts, I'm nuts, etc. lol Mother's Day was fairly nice, the kids were sweet, I got some nice little gifts, and we took some family pics at Oaklands Mansion. The only bad thing was I went to get my tats and they told me I needed an appointment. So I made an appointment, then had to re-schedule since I had to work that night, so tonight if finally the night. I hope it doesn't hurt too bad and that it looks good.

I've been in a bit of a funk, things are just kind of nuts right now, the days blur together and I have been in such a rotten mood lately, I must snap out of it. blah!!!

My MIL is coming into town tomorrow, the kids last day at school is tomorrow, still have no idea what I'm gonna do about the kid situation this summer, need to find somewhere for them to go at least part-time, still need to find a program for Elena for the fall too. I pre-registered Jackson for Kindergarten, aaahhh, my little man is growing up. sniff sniff.

On and on

Another week has gone by, work is still busy, hubby's working working until midnight most nights, the kids and I are all nuts, I had to work some this weekend, it's just been crazy lately. I took the kids to get haircuts this week, and Jackson looks totally handsome and I had about 6-8 inches of Elena's hair chopped off, it's in a bob and she looks darling, although hubby says he doesn't like it at all. Oh well, it will grow back.

I finally got the kids some clothes for the summer, they were in dire need, and of course now it's cooler and rainy, lol. I am so sick of this rain. This week holds lots of work for us, Jackson's graduation, which they do a program and cap and gown, should be adorable, a MNO with some friends, possible yard sale this weekend if it will ever stop raining, and possible Mommy tats if i can swing it. Oh and Mother's Day. Woo hoo!!

Tired, tired

Another busy crazy week for us. Work's getting busy, the kids are completely nuts, the weather is getting beautiful and HOT which means we spend much of our days playing outside. I guess we're the place to be, as most of the time we have other kids beside my own playing with us. I've been feeling completely exhausted, and I'm just trying to keep up. I've been battling sinus crap for two weeks, and all of the festivities on top of the heat and everything have just worn me down.

We went to a skating birthday party Friday, the kids had a blast! John's half sister came into town Saturday so we spent the day at the zoo with her and her boyfriend. It was crazy packed! Sunday we went out to eat with a friend, and then came back to the house to play, then had more kids drop by to play as well.

Tomorrow is work, groan, and I'm not sure what the week holds yet, but I do know my weekend is already booked. Funny how that always happens. I'm currently searching for some designs on my Mommy tats and I am thinking I will be getting them Mother's Day weekend if I can get them designed in time. Wish me luck, a lot of it depends on hubby to fix the artwork, he's so awesome!

Whirlwind weekend

The week has just flown by once again and I have to say, it was just as busy as usual around here. Between work, the kids, taking the kids to work ( something I don't enjoy too much since it makes working that much harder), house stuff, and having fun with friends, the week is gone.

Work's getting busy, which is good, but times are still uncertain, much like most of the world. Jackson's been practicing for his graduation, it should be so cute seeing him in a little cap and gown. I also was told that Elena is one of the best singers in her class, so sweet to hear, music is definitely in here genes ( got that from DH). I still need to figure out what I'm going to do with the kids in the summer, a friend offered to watch them for a couple of days a week, but I will definitely need more than that. I also need to figure out what I'm gonna do with Elena in the fall when Jackson starts school.

Friday night me and the kids went to a friend's party, DH was supposed to go, but he was feeling very sick that night. We had a great time and a friend of mine told me about a group that she's in, that she wants me to join. If I have time I'm going to meet them Tuesday evening to see what I think. Sounds fun. We stayed until almost midnight, the kids were exhausted, but Jackson wanted to spend the night. It's funny because I had to force him to go and he told me he didn't want to meet any new friends. Just goes to show, you never know. lol

Saturday I met my Mom in Nashville so she could have the kids, which was good since hubby was still pretty sick and I was still feeling a little ick. We still tried to make the best of it and went to Cracker Barrel for lunch, which was pretty yummy, and to see the movie I Love You Man. It was hilarious, and I loved the friend, everyone should have a cool/nerdy/weirdo friend like that. We also were the only ones in the theater, it was awesome!!!

Since hubby was still feeling pretty bad, I decided to go to my friend's bachelorette party that night. I was glad I got to go as I had been REALLY wanting to go, but I knew I should spend time with hubby. Since he was sick though, he insisted I go, he even dropped me off and picked me up, so I could drink and have a great time. Am I a lucky woman or what??? YES!!

So we met at a friend's house in Antioch for some penis cake, yep, it was a bachelorette party you know, and then went to Nashville to go clubbing. We hit Decades, some other bar that I can't recall , Cadillac Ranch ( we got to avoid the line and go straight in since one of the girls knew someone important I guess, lol) and Play ( a drag show bar). We had a most awesome night in our pink cowgirl hats and picked up an adorable young guy who joined us at the first bar and stayed with us the rest of the night until we went to the gay bar. The gay bar was absolutely packed and I have to say, sadly, lots of the guys were hot. The show wasn't quite as impressive as the last drag show I saw, but it was entertaining and the girls and I had an absolute blast! I met some really cool people and we didn't make it home until 3:30. Elena by the way is totally enjoying my pink cowgirl hat and pink boa. lol

Sunday was just time spent recooperating from the previous night , went to Nashville to get the kiddos and now am about to go spend some time with my man. I hope anybody that reads this had a most excellent weekend.
