What a crazy, stressful past few weeks!!

I decided last year to go back to school and now I'm nearly a year into the program and the further I get into it, the less I want to be in the program. I feel torn between my passion (photography) and the reality of finding a concrete job for the future. I chose to study Early Childhood Education and I'm ( Read more... )

Bobby and I have been having problems finding an occasional sitter from our family and friends. So.. we've been talking about hiring basically an on call sitter for a few nights a month. I've been reading through classified and stuff and to be honest it makes me sick to my stomach. The idea of leaving our children with a stranger just makes me feel ( Read more... )

I swear. I feel like screaming. We're argueing over the STUPID house again. First he wants a basement, then he doesn't. Then he wants the 2nd story and now he doesn't. I'm getting sick of it. I'm not living in a tiny freaking house. This is bullshit. He makes me so mad. I'm sick of his constant mind changing! Just get with it! ARGH!!!!!!

The kids are occupied taking all of their toys out of the toy box and scattering them all over the house. Toys which I had all picked up about 3 hours ago. But, at least they're occupied ( Read more... )

Well, so far my day hasn't started off bad. I made breakfast for the kids and Levi is taking his morning nap. Allie actually ate. She's such a picky eater. Sometimes it takes a battle just to get her to eat. It's very frustrating. Especially from a kid who ate so well even a year ago. Her favorite food used to be spinach! Anyway, this morning she ( Read more... )

I was going to start out the new year abandoning my LJ completely. However, after making a new blog I realized that I'd already had my LJ for too many years to just abandon it. Alot of years of my life are kept on the pages of this blog.

Reflection on 2010

Overall 2010 was not a "wonderful" year for me. I spend months on end at odds with my parents ( Read more... )

At the end of the day, I like to sit back and reflect on it. You know, just sort of gather my thoughts. Most days, I end it feeling positive. I feel so happy to have such beautiful, happy, healthy children. To be married to Bobby and have this wonderful family. But, sometimes I just feel a little defeated. Today, is one of those days. My house is a ( Read more... )

The new baby is due anyday and both the girls have been sick with a terrible cold. Just when that was starting to go away Allie starting throwing up. She hasn't kept anything down. Even liquid she just throws right back up. If she isn't any better by today we're going to have to take her to the hospital. Poor kids! I don't understand it. Our kids ( Read more... )

My dad's appendix burst about 2 weeks ago and he was taken to St. Louis for emergency surgery. They kept him overnight and then did the surgery the next morning. He was alot worse than they thought and they had to take out part of his large intestine also. He was in there for a little over a week. He's still really sore and in alot of pain but he's ( Read more... )

I never did write anything about the accident  on June 1st. So, I'll start with there. Bobby's cousin Bubby was in a horrible car accident right in front of our house. We live out in the sticks and none of our intersections have stop signs. Bubby's girlfriend Brianna was driving and after leaving his dad's house (our neighbor) she yeilded at the ( Read more... )
