best friends since 2 yrs old

the class of 2010

just like me...

i found this on someone else's blog-it's her "about me". i can't remember where i got it so i apologize for not giving credit. my mom will definitely have a good laugh over this...and be very thankful that this girl did not live under our roof with me (twins anyone?!!). I'm not going to change a thing she wrote just to you can see that there's actually someone else like me out there...AMAZING!!!

"I am the oldest of 4 children. Born with hands on my hip and orders flying out of my mouth.

I grew up fast.

My thoughts swirl in my head over and over before I will post them...mainly due to the fact I can't type or spell very good or is it well?

I have always been the take control organize and plan everything child.

Until I had kids...now they take control and they plan everything.

I married the love of my life over 10{20} years ago.

On the days I think of trading him in I remember I must give up my in-laws...

I would never do that!

I wonder if I could get visitation with them?

I spend most of the days convincing my children that just because your born doesn't mean you "get" to go to Disneyland, have a cell phone or any other snazzy item that will break my bank.

I have to count to 20 everyday before I lose my temper

and barely make it to 8 before I lose my patience.

I have to tell my kids everyday at least 5 times I love them

just to try and help them forget how Not so perfect I am.

This is the story of our life...I hope you enjoy"

told you-scary, huh??!!!

so i'm a little ditsy at times... so i'm not a planner, nor claim to be good at it AT ALL... so i'm always flying around like a crazy woman (no comments to that last statement please)... let me just put a disclaimer here: it is not my kids' fault...at least not this time. livie called me at work at 4:10. i had no idea it was that late already cuz i always try to be home when they come off the bus. she asked me if she could look something up on the computer and then reminded me of mady's soccer practice. yep, didn't forget (SHOCKER!). i finished up what i was doing and cleaned up my desk and left. on my way home (which is seriously 2 min. on a bad day) mady called and asked me where i was. i told her i was on my way home to pick her up to bring her to soccer. "they've already been playing for 10 min." "what?" "it starts at 4:15." oops-thought it started at 4:45, but it ends at 5:45...see? 45 and 45? "oh, honey, i'm sorry" "it's ok, mommy." then i asked her, laughing, "what would you do if you had a mommy who never forgot anything?" her response: i...have...NO...idea. and there you have it.
