How funny is this...

So I was at my Dads last week, and my step mom calls while I am there and my dad is saying "oh really ok yeah just print it and bring it home" and he is looking at me?? HHmmmm what the heck..so I ask him "what"!! He says Jackie told me about your post she is printing it so I can see it.. what the heck who does that!!!! I was laughing so hard..guess they find me interesting enough to actually print off what I say. Hilarious I must say... so is does this one earn printing points huh???

Lovely day

So today should be beautiful day outside its going to be almost 80!!! Slight wind so in the sun it wont be hot, but still warm enough. I actually hate the summer because it gets so hot here, but it seems like this winter has went on forever. Im kinda ready for a bit warmer weather. I am NOT ready for when its 108 outside thats just waaayy over my tolerance level!! Anyways Im gunna walk to get Adriana at preschool, and then drop by the park so the kids can run some steam off before we head home. They havent been outside to play in awhile since its been so chilly and windy so they are ready for it!! Got a weekend full of homework so not looking forward to it:((

A word from the wise

Me and Dominic went to visit my grandma today while the girls were at school, and it was a very telling visit. She is in her mid eighties and in pretty good shape I would say she lives on her own, but she cannot do anything like she used to and that really botheres her. She is very stubborn and independent so the fact tht she cannot walk 3 blocks to kmart pisses her off to say the least. Well she asked me so what do you do besides take care of the kids and go to school? I said nothing much i dont have much time for anything else. She then said something that is really sticking with me she said.... well i know its hard and alot of work, but someday you will be like me old and your kids will be grown with their own families and you will be left not enjoying your life because you dont have the things you used to and you cant do the things you used to....you will wish you had these days back. I had tears in my eyes, and really took that moment in. I told her grandma you still have plenty of things you can do, and all of us still love you and need you...but i knew exactly what she was trying to say. Her life has really passed all up the things she has lived for and now she feels she is just wasting time which is sad for us, but understandable. She is just tired of all the aches of age and she feels her duties have passed my grandpa has been passed since the early nineties so she has been alone a long time. My Dad visits her all the time I go once a week or so. One day that will be me feeling that way so I should try and stress less and live more. she then went on to say how proud she is of my dad and me and how she has been so thankful to see me grow older and see my kids. She lives for the visits from us, and Im sure thats really all she finds joy in. Today has just been enlightening im many ways so im thankful for that.

Is it just me or what...

Well anybody that knows me knows that I eat like total crap. I basically eat junk and if I dont have any junk then I just wont eat until I do. I have a BAD addiction to sweets and all the bad foods you can think of. May I also add I basically do not exercise either. Besides cleaning and taking care of the kids I really do not do any exercise.Luckily I am blessed with awsome metabolism and after three kids I have just a few pounds I wanna lose I woulden't say I am "overweight", yes I could lose a few lbs though. My aerobics class on Saturdays I really never go so I am going Mon Wed and Sat for the next two weeks to make up my missed days since I never wanna go!! What I am getting at is I never have any darn energy i am always so tired and never feel like doing anything. I make myself get through the day and its not easy. I am just so tired of being so out of energy i just never feel the urge to get up and walk to the park and run with my the kids. I do it because I know I need to for the kids, but trust me its hard!! So im pretty sure its my own fault because I eat like crap and dont exersice so my body is treated like poo so it feels like poo!! I am wondering though are other moms feeling like this? I do have alot on my plate 3 kids of my own, I babysit another, and go to school. So is it me or is it just how ya feel with all this going on??? I dont know opinions?? Sooooo I am honestly going to make an effort at changing my eating habits and upping my exercise. I am aware of all the damage I am doing to my body by what I put in my mouth, but I does not seem to stop me. I need to set an example for my kids that eating junk is not good for you, and your health is imortant. We also have a treadmil, boxing bag, numerous weights, yoga ball, and the "bean" trust me we are equipped for working out without a gym, but somehow the treadmill is a clothes hanger and the rest are just dust collectors so hopefully I can make use of our mini gym haha we will see.

Picture of Dominic that Alicia took..

my kids crack me up....

Yeserday me and the kids baked a green cake for St. Pattys day, and I decided I would google a story abut what the day is and what it means and all so i could teach the kids why the day is celebrated. So after I explained the story and I asked questions Ireland then became the "island" and St.Patrick became Patrick from spongebob!!!! OMG they crack me up I asked my daughter where did St. Patrick get sent to live she insited it was the island I said no baby Ireland and she said i know mommy the island! Then she said its patricks day on Spongebob and I just gave up haha I guess 4 is a bit too young to take history seriously. BTW I am totally aware that I am always mispelling things I type way to fast mostly because I am always time crunched and these dang acylic nails do not help!! So just FYI , I am college educated and can spell lol.
