Trying to eat, because I am HUNGRY. Maybe I'm hungry because I'm having a hard time eating. And so the circle begins. Hubby is asleep right now. Kinda odd. He got home early, and passed out. I was up just as much as him last night, under the "influence" so to speak also. But it's okay. Take what you can get I suppose. I'm looking forward ( Read more... )

Well, hope didn't get me too far. Aden is crying a lot, screaming when I leave his sight even for a second, crying when I hold him... so I've tried changing diapers, snuggling, burping, bottles, orajel, gas meds, cold meds, changing to cooler clothes, rocking, singing... nothing will make this kid happy... and to boot, he's eating about every 2-3 ( Read more... )

Frustrated doesn't even begin to describe it. It is after 5 and I still have the girls. Their mother called at 1:30 (when she was supposed to pick them up) and said she was running a little bit late and she'd be here between 3 and 3:30. I called her at 3:30 to find out how far away she was so that we could go and vote. She said she was on her ( Read more... )

Haven't voted yet. Don't worry, we will. Still have the girls. Of course, their mom called about the time she was going to pick them up to tell me she was running late. Nah, really??? anyhow. Rearranging my house. Trying to find me in this mess of stuff I own. Not doing to bad so far. Wish me luck at the polls, really not looking forward to ( Read more... )

Hungry. Yes, hungry. Sleepy, a little. Oi, and my head hurts again/still. Doug let kitty out this morning and he still hasn't come back. Hope he does. The terrors aren't here this morning, but their parents want me to watch them overnight tonight. They have a Halloween Party to go to. Ya know, just a little jealous. Wish I had a party to ( Read more... )

They don't act like they're going to accept the contract... but I don't know how to get them to provide more for their children... if they're not going to bring me enough food (they brought a box of cereal, some apples and grapes, and 3 boxes of mac and cheese a month ago) and enough diapers for Shelby, then I need to be compensated for the moeny ( Read more... )

Three hours and fifty-five minutes later, I am finally calling it quits for the night. Doug did the livingroom and the hallway carpets. I mopped the kitchen floor on my hands and knees. Then I deep cleaned the steps, the two chairs, and the couch. Should be much safer for Aden to play on. As far as playdoh, it worked. Red koolaid (or at least ( Read more... )

We (and in we, I mean Doug) are deep cleaning the carpets. We shall see what it does to Koolaid stains and dried playdoh.

i have my kids back.
