This is kind of a venting/rambling blog....I think. It's 6:30 on a Thursday morning, I'm awake, which makes for a long day, but there's no one to talk to yet. So, I'm talking to you people......
So, Kate Middleton and Prince William are FINALLY getting married. I hope they are happy and the bizarreness that was his parents' lives skips them entirely. They deserve to be happy.
Harry Potter--don't get it. I know, people don't get the whole Twilight thing either. I do love Twilight, but I don't consider myself an obsessed fan. I have all the books--and by that I mean the ORIGINAL five, not the random "comic books," movie books, "special edition" magazines, etc.,--and the two DVDs that are out. I enjoy the books and the movies and um, yeah that's it. You people who know me well know that my biggest obsession is scrapbooking, but that's a blog for another time....
Casey on Channel 2 news--Is he everywhere or is it just me? I love him; he's funny, pretty adorable and just crazy enough to be entertaining, but WHEN DOES HE SLEEP???? He's on the morning show, he's on the noon show, he has his OWN afternoon show, he's here and there and somewhere else being a DJ, hosting sports viewing parties, whatever. Maybe he has a clone?? Anyway, I do love Channel 2 news in all its formats and all its broadcasters....
So, Pink is pregnant, cool; Tony Parker was stupid enough to screw up his marriage to Eva Longoria (what IS it about athletes that have beautiful wives that they always manage to screw it up??); Bristol Palin is still on DWTS? WTH??? And some dude flipped out and shot his TV and threatened his wife because of it? Really? PEOPLE, turn off the TV and get out of the house sometimes!
Hmmmm, if I wanna fly on a plane now I have a choice, appear naked on a screen in front of God knows who and risk THAT image becoming public or endure public fondling of my person? I think I'll just drive....
I think I'll clean out my coat closet today and the pantry so I can take stuff to the Day of Thanks food and coat drive on November 24th at Smith's Marketplace (90th South and Redwood or Jiffy Lube at 677 East and 400 South).
Alright, time to wake the school children and fix breakfast....
Have a good day y'all!!

Catch up
Soooooooo, I'm not very good at blogging. Now that I'm not working for a while, I'll try to do better! (But really, don't expect much LOL)
Yes, I'm home; I've been a stay at home mom for just over six weeks now. Yes, I am looking for a job :) So if you know of anything, drop me a line! It started out pretty rocky, but now we're kind of into a routine. I am loving the chance I have right now to hang out with my boys. Jake is just growing and growing and learning more words and we just giggle! Like today, I burped and Jake says, "cuse ouuuuu," which of course is "Excuse You!" We say it to Jax all the time because, naturally, he LOVES to burp really loud. Now Jake is picking it up and it's pretty funny. Hayden and I have "us time" every afternoon when Jake has a nap. We watch Phineas and Ferb or Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and he helps me fold laundry or clean up the house. He's got this weird obsession right now with measuring EVERYTHING. I find Shane's measuring tapes and straight rulers all over the house! Hayden calls it "his work," he finds a measuring device and says to me, "Mom, I gotta do my work now, okay?" He's such a nut. Jax is THRIVING in 1st grade. He reads really well, so far math is seeming to come VERY easy for him and he loves to come home and immediately do his homework. I'm so glad we started that routine last year; as soon as Jax got home we had the backpack open and getting stuff done. So much easier that way! By the time I get him home from school, he sits at the table and I start putting stuff together for dinner and/or cleaning up the kitchen. Jax also loves his teacher, Mrs. Hind and the principal, Mr. Howe. He has friends that he plays soccer with at recess and walks across the skybridge with. So happy that he's at such a great school! Shannon is also doing pretty well. There have been some bumps in the road with school, but things are slowly getting better. Luckily Shannon's teachers are more than willing to contact Shane and to hear from him if there are concerns. It may be a rocky road, but we'll make it :) She's smart and funny and in spite of everything that's happened in the past year, she's doing really well.
Shane is doing great, LOVING his job and doing really great at it. He's pretty amazing all around and puts up with my insanity, poor man!
As for me, it's been a weird trip so far. I miss my job, I really miss my work buddies and well, leaving the house every day, but like I said, I LOVE spending this time with the boys. Being home, cleaning, organizing, going to school with Jax, teaching Jake where is belly is, doing shapes and colors with Hayden, having time to find new recipes and try them out.....it's all happening for a reason and I'm just taking each day as it comes :)
