Disgruntled Employee

Caution!!
Post not intended for the weak of heart, contains whining, snark and a lot of **%&$#.
Consider yourself warned.
As you are all aware(from past posts of whining)we are dealing with the super bugs of all super bugs. The kids , myself and now Superman(AKA. Hubby)has been stricken with some sort of cold/flu. Superman has been home now since Thursday, he was terrific and took a family day for me so I could concentrate on getting some rest, then he had some scheduled days off.
Well in those days off Superman fell ill, he never gets sick(after all he is Superman)so it is hitting him hard.
Since Thursday I feel like I have gone from Mom to disgruntled employee of the month, I have felt like I'm near death and I still have had to cook, clean, laundry and look after the needs of the girls, what the h*#@!!!
Why is it Moms need to pick up their a$$es and keep functioning like your well and the management get to lie in their beds or on the couch. I must admit he is a good patient, he never complains(Good thing, he might be a lot worse off!!).
But come on, we are both under the weather, the kids need to be fed, clothed and yes even entertained so they'll stop crawling on the walls and ceilings!!
If management treated their employee nicer and fair the work environment might be a lot more pleasant.
I am off now to get caught up on the laundry or Superman kryptonites are going Commando tomorrow, yes no clean undies in the castle...
P.S. If there are spelling mistakes, my apologies, I can't get spell check to work, arrrrr....

Forever in my heart..















This is my heart, this is part of my soul, this is my first love.
It was five years ago today that you took my breath away, I saw you across a crowded hotel room being held by one of your nannies. I can't remember ever feeling so nervous, so overwhelmed, so consummed with such an intense feeling of love.
I held you, you looked at me and cried(and cried for 5 hours, LOL), I think you felt my nervousness. I couldn't even cry, I was so overwhelmed with emotions. I placed my cheek against yours and felt your soul touch mine, I had never felt that in my life.
I knew love, I had married the most amazing man in the world, but it was different, it felt like no other I 'd experienced. I knew from the moment I took you in my arms there would be nothing that I wouldn't do to protect you, forever.
As I have watched you grow from baby to toddler, to my "big" girl you have amazed me, made me burst with pride, sometimes, yes, you have made me a crazy Mom.
You are everything I dreamt my daughter would be, loving you and being your Mom has been an honor and truly a gift.
I love you Puddin' Pop'.
Momma

Snow, Snacks and Sparks.

Here is Jennifer this morning getting ready for a winter camp day with the Girl Guides Sparks.
They will be there from 8am until 9pm, a very long day. It is 5 pm and I missing her, hope she is having a fantastic time. There is going to be one tired little monkey tonight, she hardly could sleep she was so excited!!

To start off the weekend we had snow, snow and more snow. This was a great oppurtunity to get outside and wear out the monkeys. I built them a little toboggan hill again by the dog ramp, it provides hours of fun, go figure?? I sit at the top of the hill sipping hot coffee and pushing my kids down the hill, winter isn't so bad, wink!!

Yahoo!!!



My cute little penguin.


Snow angel!!




Later Saturday we started our New Year's shopping, I am excited, there will food and lots of it.
We purchased some really cute red envelopes this year for Jennifer to hand out to her class this year. The rat almost looks like Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Now I have to fill them with some chocolate money!
Hope your enjoying your weekend.

Weird and Wacky Tag





The rules are to link the person who sent this to you and leave a comment on their blog so their readers can visit yours. Post the rules on your blog. Share 7 strage/wierd facts about yourself. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, linking their blog. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.


1. I have to bathe before going to bed, have to cleanse my face to get the makeup off. I just don't sleep well if I can't climb into the bathtub.


2. I have to make my bed as soon as I get out of it. The pillows have to be arranged in a certain way, the corners have to have hospital corners. If hubby makes it , I will do it over, I know , can you say "Crazy".


3. When I buy something new to wear sometimes it will sit for days, weeks, hanging on the hanger. I am saving it to wear when I go out,I am that way with anything new!! I am saving it, for what I don't know. As a stay at home Mom I don't really go out too much, I'm so lame.


4. I dislike feet and noses. If my girls get a yucky nose with their colds and I have to wipe them I gag almost to the point of being sick.


5. I have never had a hair do that I have actually liked, I need a makeover.


6. I am a bit of an introvert, I like to avoid crowds and a lot people where I have to be in a big social gathering. I feel so shy and gravitiate to a corner. My Hubby is very social , this helps me tremendously, I would just as soon stay at home. He drags me out and when I get out there I usually enjoy myself.


7. I have a male inherited blood disease. In order to give me the disease and just not be a female carrier both my parents would have to give me defective genes, now that's weird.
I now tag these "lucky 7" ladies.

1. Sen.


2. Sam


3. Kris






6. Shelly.
