RIP Craig B

So yesterday was a crazy day, A friend of ours called us at about 9:30 am to tell us that one of our good friends and part of the MI crew,(thats what we call ourselves down here; everyone teases us that we all got on a bus and the whole town moved to FL) had passed away earlier that morning. Craig was a great person and could of been so much more. Instead he let drugs get the better of him and they stole his friendships and eventually his life. I am upset because Craig was only 25 yrs old, younger than me and his poor parents had to get a phone call from some complete stranger saying that their son was dead and his death could of been prevented! Why do people let themselves get so far into drugs like that? I know there are a couple other people with the same problem who are saying "Well Craig was diferent he had diabetes or he was into the shit more than I am blah blah blah..." Well the same shit is gonna happen to these people one day if they dont wake up and clean there shit up!!! One night they are just gonna go to bed and never wake up just like Craig! I knew Craig for over 10 years, from way back when he used to come in the Pizza Shop with his jv football team!! Its like Thom said I hope this is a wake up call and that everyone stops fucking around with the damn pills! THEY WILL KILL YOU!!!

I am tired

So I worked all weekend havent had a chance to write because it takes me until now to get caught back up on housework and sleep. I have been kinda bummed lately and I dont know if its because our lease is up and we need to decide wherther or not to move and everythign being in limbo is giving me anxiety or what but shit has been bothering me more than it usually does,, Monday I was sick and yesterday I had the awful pre-effects of the monthly visitor. Not to mention that the lst two days Kaden has turned into a holy terror. He spends most of his days kicking and screaming ont he floor throwing a fit because I wont let him play on the computer or get him his 9th sippy of milk for the day. What the hell am I supposed to do? Bust his ass or ignore it??? Last night I put Phoenix to bed around 10 and he woke up at 2 to eat. THis was fine and I am used to it so I made him a bottle and fed and changed him and afterward he usually goes right back to sleep but he cried off and on for the rest of the night until about 10 min ago when I got up and put him inj his swing and made coffee and took the baby gate down for Kaden. Now he is fast asleep and I am wide awake and its 5:56 AM!! HE was up at 5 yesterday too. I need more sleep and I dont want to wake up Thom becuase he is NOT an early riser and has to work today but I am completely exhauseted. My tummy is starting to hurt again too. I dont even know if this blog will make sense because I am fricken slap happy tired right now. Oh wel looks like its gonna be another day jam packed with caffeine and nicotine; this is my life.

Thom is dead sexy! lol

Im outta shape

So I went to the gym the other night and tried to kill myself on an eliptical machine....holy crap I am so outta shape! I really am trying to get back into shape and even better shape than I was before I got prego. My goal is to tone and tighten everything. Let me tell you my age is starting to show through, I am a 26yr old sack of blubber!!! I went on the exercise bike for 10 minutes (dont laugh people it was hard and my legs were burning) and I only brned 46 calories! WTF is that shit. Oh and the icing on the cake was that Michelle had me doing situps on an incline where my butt was like 2 ft higher than my head and I seriously could only do 5!!! Yup 5!! I thought that the gym was supposed to make you feel better I am actually more depressed now. I am gonna keep trying to plug away and hopefully one day be able to call myself in shape, we will see.....

I need a haircut

I got my haircut just before I had Phoenix and the lady butchered my hair. Not only did she cut off way too much but it ended up completely uneven in the front. So I have left it alone until now. My friend Sara who I work with just finished coz and offered to cut my hair but I have been calling her, texting her, and leaving her voice mails for 3 days now so we can get together and she can cut my hair.!!!! She hasnt returned any calls or texts. I think its safe to say she is ignoring me and I am just going to go up to the mall maybe today and get it cut. You know people shouldnt volunteer to do something if they dont want to or are to busy to take on another project! I am annoyed!

This is actually a lot funnier in person, but check it out anyway...

Today after Kaden's bath I asked Thom to put a diaper on him. Thom obviously hadn't had enough coffee because he put one of PHOENIX'S diapers on him!!! Kaden wears a size 4 and Phoenix is a size 1. Here is a pic of the end result:

Phoenix 2/24/09 and also Kaden on his big boy bed

Im so proud!!

All A's and B's last semester!! We are so proud of Kyle!!

Dont waste my time!

So I have all kinds of free time these days....not really but I guess people think I do. Here's what happened this morning. Well I guess I should start by saying that Kyle has been in speech therapy since preschool and he has shown improvement but still needs help with his "r" sounds. So every yr his school is required to do a re-eval for him to continue speech therapy and this yr the eval happened to be scheduled for a week after I had Phoenix so I called the school to ask if we could just do the eval over the phone because I couldnt drive. THe guidance counselor said he would conduct the eval and call me after and tell me the results. Well I never got a phone call so this morning at 9 am I had to go into the school and have a meeting which I thought was to discuss the results of his gifted program testing but instead it was to go over the evaluation. Basically they had to tell me that Kyle still needs speech therapy. DUH!!! I had to drive up there at 9 am to sit there for 30 min (because they werent ready when I got there) for them to tell me something they could of given me a simple phone call for!!! I know that he still needs speech. I am not retarted!!! I dont have time or the energy to haul my ass up to that school for that crap! Thankfully Thom was home to watch the boys otherwise I would of had to get a babysitter for an hr of something that was totally worthless!! I hate FL schools AAAAHHHH!!!!

moving

So our lease is going to be up on our house at the end of this month, which means we are back to house hunting. We would love to stay in the house we are in but our landlord is smoking some wacky shit and thinkis that he is going to raise our rent when really he should be lowering it with the price of housing dropping like crazy. Also Adam lives with us and has kinda sorta decided to get his own place. I have mixed feelings about him moving out. Adam has lived with us for almost all of the 2 yrs we have been in FL. and although it will be nice to have the house to ourself,(I can walk around in my underwear if I want to!!) it is gonna be different without him around all the time and I think we are all gonna miss him.

So Thom and I are house hunting and my dream would be to get a 3/2/2 with a fenced in backyard and a pool I dont think it will happen. I am just gonna have to suck it up and drag the kids to the beach every day this summer. Anyway we are gonna try to stay east of 1 but if something magical comes our way in st lucie west then we just might have to forfeit the old neighborhood and head to the other end of town.

I am so not looking forward to moving three kids and myself and Thom, and having to redecorate the kids rooms is gonna be a huge pain in the ass as well, oh well there is nothing us women cant handle right? and on the bright side I got plenty of guys down here to help me move it all ;)

So I am new to this whole blogging thing but myspace has become a huge bore for me and I am hoping that this gives me some hope that maybe someones life is a little bit as hectic as mine.
