My husband is awesome!

Jay has really been stepping up and helping out lately. This morning he let me sleep in, he went out and did a ton of yard work for my g-ma and took the kids with him, and tonight he just made dinner.

He has been making a huge effort in the last few weeks. I love this new side of him. I am starting to get spoiled. It is such a nice change. I think the talk we had really made a difference.

Shit talkers

I am glad that so many people are so bored they feel the need to make secrets about others and post nasty comments. If you have something to say to me have the balls to actually use your name and not bash me anonymously. Why bother talking shit at all? Is your life that boring that you need to remember things someone else posted about their life and try to use it against them? Thanks to the person that e-mailed me the head's up though.

Yes, I am married and I happen to have a crush on someone else. Big fucking deal. Nothing will ever come of it. I am not ashamed of it. I am human, so fucking what? I don't flirt with said person, I would never cross any lines with said person or anyone else so why are you so offended by it? I don't regret posting about it either. It was a thread about secrets and since that was the biggest one I have so I posted it. I am sure there are posters that have done worse.

Balance

I have been trying to find some balance in my life lately. I just started classes a few days ago and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. I need to find a way to juggle classes, the kids, housework, time with Jay and, hopefully, a little time for me. I have written a schedule. I am hoping that if we stick to it there will be enough time in the day to get everything done. We will see how that goes though since we don't tend to be schedule people. Wish us luck!

Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th to all my fellow Americans! I am enjoying my last weekend of freedom before my classes start. I have a feeling my weekends are going to be pretty packed with kids, studying and paper writing from now on. I will be taking Jimmy and Bianca to the fireworks in a few hours. Hope to see some of my local readers there!

College has started!

I am officially enrolled in college. I have been in a student orientation the last 2 days and start classes on Monday. I am going to work on a degree in elementary education. I should have it about the same time Roo starts school full-time.

I am excited to be doing something that uses my brain for a change. I love my kids but it is hard to have an intelligent conversation with a 4yo and 2.5yo.
