I'm a Big Fat Chicken Shit

Watching new tv show, 666 Park Avenue. I am CREEPED OUT. Not what I expected...don't think will be part of my Sunday night routine.

But to add salt (or garlic) to an open wound, The Nun and I were watching "My Babysitter Is A Vampire," on nickelodeon or Disney channel and my sweet girl looked over at me during the show and said, "it's alright mama, vampires aren't real but we can change it cause I know they freak you out." Why, thank you sweet girl because they do on fact creep me the hell out. So we changed it. Love my girl, but kinda embarrassing when an 8 year old is more brave than her mama!!!

Bra Gymastics

Ever try to finagle yourself of of your bra WITH your shirt, or two shirts on, and get stuck in some crazy ass never invented before yoga pose? Yeah, me either.

Warning

I feel like I should come with a warning label. "I take Xanax for the safety of my children." SERIOUSLY!!!!

Dancing With The Stars

It's back on. Yay!!! (sorta) My kids LOVE this show. I like it but normally don't watch til the end of the season. BUT Kelly Monaco is on and I LOVE her!!! And I love Kirstie too. Can't freaking stand Pamela Anderson...I swear I want to throw up in my mouth every time I see her. BLECH!!! Oh and I love love LOVE Chelsie!!!

Dear Menace

I understand you have to go potty but it is NOT ok to whip it out while we are using the crosswalk at a busy intersection and attempt to piss in the street. Nor is it ok to get out of your seatbelt when we are driving and pee in a cup WHILE I AM DRIVING. What am I gonna do with this kid?!?

For the last 6 months Dr. Dad and My Dad have been working on a boat. A boat that was really REALLY ugly when it was first accquired. The boat is circa 1970's and was mustard, banana boat yellow. Want proof?

FUGLY, right? I thought they were a little insane when they started this project because I quite obviously could not understand their "vision." So, many, many, MANY hours later that monster up there has been turned into a beautiful little boat.

So last weekend we had My Dad's boat packed up and this little baby all packed up ready to go on it's maiden voyage. We were excited, the kids were excited, and we were all praying this little boat would float!!! We get to the lake, pull up for inspections and My Dad's boat fails. Well, crap! But we were still hopeful because all we really wanted to do was get the restored boat on the water. FAIL. Yup, both boats failed because they were wet inside. Weird right? It's a boat, boats get wet, but apparently here in Cali, that's frowned upon!! We FINALLY got the boats in the water the next weekend and had an absolute BLAST. Have lots of pics to post but these are some of my favorites!!

PS

I'm pretty sure mobile blogging is the best thing EVER! Just be prepared for my very random randomness.

Men and Electronics

Why must they make it such a HUGE ordeal to buy something as simple as a a printer cord, phone charger, or a plug in strip. It's not rocket science people. Really.It.Is.Not.

What to Expect When You're Expecting

I expect that watching this movie while holding my sleeping 6 month baby boy will somehow fool me into thinking I want to be pregnant again. Just ONE.MORE.TIME so I can maybe have another little girl. And then one of my minions will probably get up asking for something, needing last minute help on homework that should have been done hours ago, or a fight will be started between the boys even though neither will admit to any wrong doing. And that's when I realize, four is plenty.....maybe.

Welcome To My World!!!

If I were you, I'd choose ESCAPE....like RIGHT.NOW!!!! My mind can be a very VERY dangerous place to be. Just ask my kids! 

Well, if you've gotten this far, it's safe to say you ignored me and choose to hang around a bit longer! Hey, I'm okay with that! Just don't say I didn't warn you!

I created this blog almost a year and a half ago. I posted on it, posted some more and realized I hated it. Sooo, I deleted every last post..all 4 of them, and started over. When I first started this blog I wasn't in a happy place, but now I'm in a happy place. A REALLY happy place. Probably the very first truly "happy place" I've ever been in in my life. More later. It's complicated. But, hey, this is me, Jaime the way too happy chick...more like, the overly stressed stay at home of four amazing, mostly annoying, very needy children, who I absolutely love more than life itself. Even though I do spend the majority of my day getting on to someone for some thing. It.Never.Ends. But still, life is GOOD!!!

I'm not sure the direction this blog will take. I write for me. Sometimes I'm just writing what pops in my head (scary I know,) other times I just write because I want to write. Then there are times I write to the man in the moon because I can and because I still thinks he answers me sometimes in my dreams.

I'm not religious but that doesn't mean I won't pray for people and may at times ask for prayers. I believe, I just think religion is sanctified bull shit. Ooops. I may have forgotten to warn you that I am a soccer mom. Just not the holier than thou, my shit don't stink, and my whole entire world revolves around my kid, soccer mom. NOT ME. Well, my life does revolve around my kids but I'm not holier than thou...unless we're talking about drinking the holy water because on that note..I am HOLLIER (like my new word.) I love me some wine. I love to cook. (With Wine) I love to read. (With Wine) I like taking pictures. (With Wine) I like going to my kids sporting events. (GOTCHA) Even I have my limits :) Chances are you will all get a little bit of all of me if you choose to read. You'll also get to meet my dear sweet husband who will from this day forward be referred to as Dr. Dad, my almost 9 year old son D-Rama because he takes drama to a WHOLE.NEW.LEVEL, my 8 year old daughter, The Nun, because whether or  not she likes it, shes being sent to a convenat in about a year to protect any boy that trys to come near her in the next 3 decades. (Doctor Dad wouldn't do well in jail!) My four year old son will be a very common topic on here, I'm sure, because he keeps us on our toes...and unfortunately that's an understatement. He will just be know as Menace..as in Dennis the Menace, minus the Dennis. And then there is my sweet sweet baby boy. He is 6 months old and an absolute joy to our lives. Such a perfect sweet baby. Since he is too young to have a deserving name he will just be Baby Boy. But that is subject to change at ANY given time.

So, that's it for tonight. Tomorrow, I will add more. I'm looking forward to and I know I'm  the only one since I'm the only one reading it but it already makes me excited!!!!

TTFN, Jaime
