Is It Over Yet???? :(

I am very impatiently awaiting the day that I can say goodbye to my little lovelies as the nice bright yellow taxis take them away from me!! So, here are my last two weeks in review:

*one of my little lovelies kicks another student because he was annoying him
* the same little lovely decided to take the same student by the shirt and tell him he's going to rip his face off
* the principal decides to tell my little bully that she is telling the parents of the other child to press charges if he does it again
* lovely #2 decides that he is going to tell people that he has demons inside of him
* lovely # 3 decides that he's going to call another classmate a Mother F'er and a fag!

Ahhhh.... can you tell I need summer vaca... like pronto?

New Roof

We're FINALLY getting a new roof next week!! Yipeeeee!!! The estimate today was for the exact same type of shingles and all the extra fixings as the last estimate we got. Today's estimate was $3800 and the other estimate was almost $7000. Plus, the guy that's doing it is repairing our gutters for FREE!!! Man, we finally got a break! ROCK!

Frustrated!

Wow... I seem to be unpopular with everyone who is having kids lately. I literally have had like 4 friends in the past 1-2 weeks who have had a kid (or their wife). When I tell them their kid is cute, they seem like they're all offended because I don't say their child is the most beautiful baby on the face of the Earth. I am not trying to be rude and hateful. Your child is cute, gorgeous... all of those wonderful words. But, please remember, I HAVE MY OWN CHILD who I think is the most gorgeous kid in the universe. I know you're not going to agree with me because you SHOULDN'T agree with me. You should think your kid is the most beautiful child in the universe. And, I know not everyone thinks my kid is absolutely gorgeous. So what. She's mine, and I think she's gorgeous. I don't care what anyone else thinks. And, when I don't tell you that your child is the most beautiful kid on the face of the Earth because I don't think they are, please don't make it a competition between your kid and mine, and try to make it seem like my kid isn't great or isn't as good as yours. That really ticks me off. I'm not saying your child isn't wonderful, beautiful, amazing, etc. It's just that, in my opinion, my kid is the best there is, and that's how it should be. If I didn't think my child was more beautiful than yours, there is something majorly wrong with me because I created her, I carried her for 9 months, I had her removed from my body, I have had bite marks to prove that she's mine. Soo.... sorry if I've stepped on anyone's toes, but I'm not going to think your child is the most beautiful kid ever, not now, not in the future, not EVER. End of story.

Week 1 ~ so so!!

I have to start out by admitting that my first week on Weight Watchers wasn't as wonderful as I wanted it to be. I was really dreading going to the meeting tonight because I just knew that I was going to either not lose anything, or I was going to gain some weight. This week was just crazy hectic, and I didn't write down everything how I should have, and I didn't drink all of my water. Needless to say, I ended up losing 2.2lbs. For now, I will take what I can get. However, this has lit a fire under my booty to do better next week, and have an even bigger weight loss than 2.2lbs!! :o) Stay tuned for next week's results!

God's Hand

There are many times when I wonder if God's hand is really guiding me and protecting me and my family. Well, I know His hand was protecting my family tonight. We were driving to take a car I have to use for work back to the location the work cars are kept. I was behind my husband and child, and we merged onto the highway. As soon as we merge, we have to immediately get in the left lane to make a left hand turn in order to get down into where my part time job is. As my husband was merging, he didn't see the car speeding along in the left hand lane, and he cut her off.... like MAJORLY cut her off. She was literally about 3 inches from smacking him down the entire left side of our car. If that wouldn't have been bad enough, our car isn't brand new, so the baby can't sit in the middle now that she's in a forward facing carseat. She's on the LEFT hand side behind her Daddy, and she probably would have been hurt quite badly guessing by the speed the woman was traveling. Then, there was me driving behind watching all of this happen almost having a heart attack because my husband almost side swiped someone in his blind spot. Talk about SCARY!!! Needless to say, I definitely saw God's hand protecting my two loves tonight!! Thank you, God for protecting them!

Simply Amazing

I look at her, and thank God for her so many times during the day. She is my ray of sunshine on the cloudiest day, and is the reason for the happiness in my heart. I love being a mother, and I love this little girl more than I ever thought possible!

Life Changes

Well, I joined Weight Watchers tonight. I got on that scale, and almost had a heart attack on the spot due to the numbers that popped up. Wow... I really let myself get to this point? How stupid am I?? It disappoints me so much. I am always saying that I cannot stand how I look, and I don't do anything about it. Now that I have a child, I want to be 100% healthy for her. I want to run around with her, and not have to worry about having heart problems due to being overweight. I already have goals set, and plan to keep them. I'm starting HARD CORE tomorrow. If I won't do it for myself, I need to do it for my daughter! My husband is also on board to help me, and encourage me when I get down! I'll post my weight loss success on here (maybe)!
