{My Kid is Obsessed with Fortnite}

I'm going to be the first to admit that I have no idea what the hell fortnite is about. I'm aware that it's some kind of cartoon like shooter video game. That is the extent of my knowledge on this game.

My eleven year old son however is obsessed. He gets up early in the morning before school (not every morning but most of them) to play before he has to leave.

All he wanted for his birthday was PS4 cards so that he could by V bucks. So he could spend it on skins for Fortnite and his battle pass (I have zero idea what that is).

When it came to Halloween, he said he wanted to be some skull guy (a Skeletrooper? What the crap is that?). That proved to be difficult.

{How My Husband Won Me Over}

For those that don't know, the husband and I have been together for fifteen years. How that even happened, I don't know. At this point we have been together pretty much all of my adult life.

Shocking.

I'm aware.

I have actually gotten the question what made you choose him? before. I'm not sure who asked. I don't care. I thought it'd make a good blog post lol.

{Why I'm Done with #weightwatchers }

I know what you're thinking! You are always quitting and going back! Well, a girls prerogative is to change her mind at will correct? That's what I'm doing.

{And Then There Were Three}

Do you ever get home from work, sit down on your couch, and think to yourself this job is horse shit ? This is literally me every single day for the last week. I'm not even going to lie, I sit down after work (hell, before I even get up to go to work!) and think to myself, I could quit today and find a different job that doesn't suck so bad.

{We Have Kittens!!}

I think we've all heard about our little stray visitor. The one we eventually started feeding, the one I tried to get in to our local animal shelter to be spayed just before finding out she was in fact, pregnant.

{My Top 5 Favorite YouTubers!}

I am positive that I am not the only person out there that has (on occasion) sat and watched YouTube for an entire day (or half of it anyway). Sometimes I'll get sucked down the YouTube black hole and even though I started off watching one of my favorite creators talk about her favorite products that month, I end up watching some obscure channel about abandoned towns (you actually have no idea how many times this has happened to me!).

I've found a great deal of my favorite YouTubers by simply stumbling upon their channel. Some are big. Some are little. Some are mom vloggers (like myself!) and some are beauty lovers. Hell some are both (also like myself!). I enjoy watching all kinds of material to be honest. And I love finding new ones! So I thought I'd compile a small list for anyone who might be on the hunt for a new channel to binge watch. Feel free to leave a comment or find me on social media (I'm hisminenours6 everywhere!) and drop a link to your favorite channels!

{A Year Later! | My Part-Time Job Update!}

I honestly can't believe I've been at this job for almost an entire year.

As of next month (October nineteenth) that is.

Aside from babysitting (I sat for the same family for three years, every summer and any time they went out on the weekends), this is the longest length of time I've ever had a job.

If you don't count being a mom. That I've been for fifteen years. It was a lot harder than job I have now.

{Is He Even Old Enough For This?!}

I'm finding it difficult to write this. I'm not ready. I knew the day would come, but I just wasn't prepared I suppose. As a mom I have always been so shocked at how fast time flies when it comes to my kiddos.

It seems like just last week I teaching Gaige to walk and say mama (which always came out pawpaw) and singing him to sleep at night. I still remember laying in his bed with him at night, scratching his back and singing Rudolph because it was one of the songs he knew the words to too. I feel like it wasn't that long ago that I would sing My Girl  to him, switching up girl with Gaige and he would sing mommy instead of Gaige.

Where did those days go?

How did they pass by so quickly?

Why did I take them for granted as they were happening?

{Am I Even a Mom Anymore?}

I'm honestly not so sure. I mean, I've got kids living in my house. I provide food and clothing for these children. I have spent sleepless nights cleaning up vomit and checking temperatures when they spike a fever.

But over the last year, I've started to second guess myself.

Am I even a mom if I'm not baking cookies and making dinner?

{Where am I now? | #weightwatchers update!}

Can I just start this blog off by apologizing for not updating you all on my journey more? I'm aware that I've said that before, but really, it's a struggle for me to sit down and talk about it. I just don't want to lol. Especially on those weeks that I don't lose anything. Or I don't feel like I've lost enough. But I mean, what's enough? Everyone says a loss is a loss, but is it really? I hope so. Because my turtle pace of a weight loss journey makes me want to scream.

But, I do have an update for you now! So hold on to your hats kids!
