Elle Gets her ears Pierced - Facebook 27 Jul 2016

Years ago Kristi talked me out of getting Elle's ears pierced. Her argument was, if she's going to have permanent holes in her body, maybe she should have a say. Well, Elle finally decided to get them pierced! 😁 But last night the right side was swollen and painful even though we've been taking care of it carefully as instructed. She thinks she must have touched it without realizing. To kill the infection I poured Betadine over her ear lobe and finished up with melaleuca. This morning the swelling has gone down and it doesn't hurt to touch! Essential oils for the WIN!!

Turning 40 - Facebook 21 Jul 2016

April 1989 my father's sister Rosie Dawkins flew out for a visit. My favorite aunt!!! 😁❤️😘 I was 12 at the time. On the morning of my dad's 40th birthday she decorated our yard with happy birthday over-the-hill banners, yard signs and other decorations. I know now it was fun sibling teasing and done completely out of love, but my dad tried to take some of it down before he went to work. As a child I assumed it was because he was ashamed of being SO old. In reality he probably just didn't like the attention on display for our neighbors. Despite my adult perspective of his reaction to birthday attention, I've still associated 40 as the end of youth and dreaded it. So here I am. The world hasn't come to an end. I feel pretty much the same. Maybe I won't hide under a rock today.

Baby Gas - Facebook 18 Jul 2016

I am sitting with a very unhappy little right now. He doesn't feel good because he's working on barf as a new life experience. So he's miserable. I've got a trash can close by because any minute his pop-goes-the-weasel whimpers and belly gurgles are going to stop and I have to make sure he's aimed in the general direction of the bucket. #BabyGrenade. #momlife

Daniel's birthday - Facebook 16 Jul 2016

Happy 32nd birthday! Wishing you were here to enjoy your special day with you. We'll be thinking about you! Michael will probably want to get a cheesecake anyway...but that's typical! LOL

I hope you are surrounded by people who love you. I hope you achieved your goals for your 31st year. I hope you have many happy times ahead of you. I hope you have many happy memories to hold on to. אתה חסר. אתה אהוב.

Black eye - Facebook 13 Jul 2016

Yes, that's a black eye. Peter head butted me at the pool as he was jumping in because at the same time Sam climbed over the edge and I moved closer to catch him. But nobody drown!! 😳

Drama - Facebook (hidden) 11 Jul 2016

 Do YOU like facebook drama? Morbid curiosity? Trainwreck...can't look away? Check this out:

Congratulations, Aimee! You've done it again!

I managed to be unfriended today again. I followed this chick as a morbid side-show attraction. She was a nanny who seduced her employer, got pregnant, tried to convince people that the baby was premature since the wedding/delievery dates didn't line up...etc etc. They both should have been excomunicated..yes they're LDS. Another woman (my good friend who shared a LOT about it with me), had been sealed in the Temple, was divorced because of her. The adulterers got married and went on with life pretending like they didn't completely destroy someone else's life in the process. Molly Mormon over here goes on how she is completely perfect and preaches gospel/morality/principles regularly. GAG.

So she makes this gushing post on her wall about how important families are and how we should treasure our spouses...blah, blah blah. Oh it was incredibly true and uplifting what she said, but I couldn't take it anymore. So I said, "OMG I find your post here incredibly ironic"

And I'm thinking, Because the best way to love your family is to steal another woman's husband. Hypocrite much?

So I was unfriended by both of them. Oooh. I hit a nerve!

As a grand finale I logged onto a different account and posted these gems. And...now I'm blocked. LOL

Drama.

Scout Camp - Facebook 11 Jul 2016

Don't mind me! I'm just in my jammies doing the 3 am drop off for scout camp. 😱😜😘

IRS Scam - Facebook 05 Jul 2016

Have a bored minute where you'd like to mess with a really awful person? Would you like to yell at someone and feel completely good about it?

I received a phone call this morning from (352) 409-1268. The recording claimed to be the IRS who was filing a lawsuit against me. FYI the IRS only corresponds via mail and for serious matters, certified mail. The problem is, little old grandmas, otherwise innocent yet ignorant people are going to get this call and be scared out of their minds. They're going to call and give them their SS# and probably send $. I called my CPA and he said that there wasn't much I could do to run it to ground. So, before their disposable number out of FL gets shut off, might you like to have a little fun?

I called the number and read them the riot act. What a bunch of 😡😤🤐😱!!!!

Actual 4th of July 7 o'clock breakfast take 2. Now I am sick. Thanks kids. We stayed home in bed.

 

S.M.R.T Facebook 02 Jul 2016

I am sitting in an empty church parking lot with three kids.

Backstory:
The baby is sick and refused to eat last night. The little boys think there is a monster in their room. Now this all wouldn't be a problem except:

We went to bed at 11pm

Sam woke up hysterical at 12:30 because he was so hungry.

The little boys came into our room screaming at 1:30 (re: the monster) and woke up the baby
Sam woke up every hour after that because he was so miserable (re:sick)

AND...we are now sitting in the church parking lot completely on time for a 7 o'clock 4th of July breakfast, which, as it turns out doesn't actually start until 8 am ON the 4th of July. 😖
Don't be deceived! We're all laughing be cause my new manicure made it hard to push the iPhone button and take the picture! LOL 😜
