{My Dreams Have Been CRUSHED!!}

Nick Carter is ENGAGED!! I died a little bit when I saw this news pop up on my twitter feed. I'm just saying..lol. Suuure I've gotten married already and suuure I knew I was never going to meet him. But come on I've only been in love with the man since I was 13! *Sigh* *Tear* But I'm super happy...

{Home Schoolin' Again}

I think we should all remember 2 years ago when I decided not to enroll G back in our district (at the time) because they were refusing to give him the help he needed. In fact, they were going to hold him back a year and not give him any extra help at all. Which pissed me off. There is a reason they are one of the worst schools in the state (probably the country). Anyway- when we started in the new...

{Shut up Brain!!}

Don't you hate it when you're tired all.day.long but when you lay your head down on that nice soft pillow, your brain won't shut up so you can catch some much needed Z's? I do. It's happening to me as I type this. I'm tempted to knock back some Nyquil. But then I'd probably over sleep the doctors appointment...

{Ulta Target & Rue21 Haul!}

D and I got our returns back! So guess who got to go shopping? ME!! *Squeals with excitement* The teenager, drama queen, and I set off around noon today and didn't get back until around 5:30. We hit up all the major stores. I didn't buy a whole lot from any one store. I like to make smaller purchases...

{Puppy Adventures!}

We have lived in this town for 2 years and today (of all days) I chose to go to the dog park. It's freezing out. My phone tells me it's 30*. I'm shivering just thinking about it! But Boss and Prissy have been cooped up all winter and really needed a release. So off we went. Boss found a fun spot...

{My kids names are awesome!}

I have been naming my kids since I was 13. I think most girls do this. I had a male and female name picked out when I was in high school (no idea what those were now lol), but the time I actually got pregnant with my first child, I'd changed my mind. Gaige (G) Alexander was my first. That was not his...

{A letter to my daughter}

Dear Drama Queen, Although I did not birth you and came into your life when you were barely 2 years old, I feel as though the last 8 years of wiping your nose/face/butt/hands/ect. have given me the right to call myself your mother. And as your mother I would like to give you some sound advice as you navigate your preteen years. Which, by the way, have come on far too fast and I am not ready to acknowledge...
