Today is my sisters birthday. We had supper and cake.. 15 years ago for her 18th birthday I took her to a bar names Euphoria or something stupid like that.  I lined tequila shots around the table and a bunch of us stood around and shot them dropping out one by one. I was the last one to drop out. I later got a second taste of all of those shots when they came back up my nose. That's about all I remember from that night.  Although supper and cake is much lamer, I'll probably be in WAY better shape tomorrow.

 Today Anna decided that she should go live with Grandma.  I was rude, the worst mommy EVER, and living with Grandma seemed like a WAY better idea. She says I can still drive her to school though. All of this because I took her Disney Princess magazine away when she hit Meghan with it. I have a feeling the teenage years are going to be fun with that one. I may have to go back to shooting tequila.

 Anyway gotta go crush some candy.

HA HA I'M DONE MY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING! Also welcome to my new follower. You are number 4! That is pretty sad.

Tomorrow is the most stressful day of the year for me. Tomorrow I have to get my kids all looking their very best (including Chris) and I have to get 1 good picture for a Christmas card.  Our pictures are at 3:30. I am predicting that by 2:45 I will be in full bitch mode. Chris will still need a shower. I will be in the middle of getting the kids ready and still need to get myself ready. He will be watching his stupid car shows after hunting all morning. I will be yelling. Then we will all pile into the van and head to the island where I will spend the next hour trying to get one picture where we are all looking and smiling at the camera. I will bribe people to smile with candy or a new barbie. Connor will be an asshole because he hates people looking at him. Chris will be wanting a divorce. It's gonna be a good afternoon!
 Not much else to say. I'm running out of blogging ideas on day 4. It's going to be a long month. I'm already a day behind.

Sparks was fun. We made bath salts. Not the drug kind that makes you want to eat people but the kind you actually put in the bath. Today was actually a fantastic day. I got tons of housework done and the best part was that it was the kind of house work that makes you sweat! And that my friend counts as calorie burning!!! Now I don't have to feel nearly as bad about my Girl Guide Mint Chocolate Cookie addiction!
 I was sort of cyber bullied today. Without getting into it, some bitches called me down on a mommy support website. I wont let it bother me because I am almost 36 and personally don't give a shit what a bunch of crabby women who have nothing better to do then sit on mommy support websites and call people down, think of me.  It does make me worry about the kind of shit my kids will have to deal with soon though. If a group of women can make me feel like shit, even if just for a minute, I can't imagine what it will do to a pre adolescent girl. Maybe we can just get rid of the internet and TV's and live like the Amish. Anyway I'm off to do the dishes, clean the living room, make Anna's lunch for tomorrow and sleep! Later.

Alright so its been awhile. I had the baby. It was a boy. He is downstairs fighting with his sister.  He's wonderful. I love him.... He's almost 2. I promise to do better. Tiffany is making me blog every day this month but I was at work last night so this is 1 of 2 for today.
 Today I organized my laundry room. It looks amazing. I actually enjoyed doing my laundry today. You're thinking I'm pathetic right. I am. This is what floats my boat now.   I have to go get Anna and haul ass home to get my roast ready for dinner in time to make it to Sparks at a decent time. Now that I am a leader I feel like I should at least make an effort to be there before the kids. Blog 2 today will be way more interesting. Wait for it.....

How did that baby get in your tummy?

After 8 months Anna finally asked me the question I thought I was prepared to answer. "Mommy, how did that baby get in your tummy?" I had decided from the start that I was just going to tell her like it is, but when it came down to it I just couldn't. I imagined her going to playgroup or nursery school and telling all of the other kids how this happened. So I started to stutter. Something about mommy's and daddy's loving each other came out of my mouth. From that she kind of got that daddy put the baby there but how? So I stuttered some more until she finally looked at me and said "It must be magic. What does A N N A spell?" I imagine that this will come up again soon so I better get something a little more solid than stuttering nonsense. Thank goodness for 4 year old attention spans.Now she is watching TV and I hope that keeps her attention again. Oh shit, here she comes again. Now I am scared of her.  

100 things about me..... Part 1

1. I think I am a fantastic mother. I admit I make mistakes, but overall I think its going well.
2. I think my husband is totally sexy.
3. 3 Years ago my dad bought my mom a really nice camera for Christmas. A couple weeks later I was drinking coffee and admiring it and I dropped it in my coffee. It never worked the same again.
4. Someday I am going to buy my mom the nicest camera out there.
5. I am scared to death of having a boy. I have  never really ever thought about having a boy. I am almost more scared of having a boy then I was of having a baby at all.
6. Sometimes when my girls are doing something and I am watching them, I cannot believe that we created such perfect little people.
7. I swear like a trucker.
8.People who are always negative drive me up the fucking wall.
9. I hated Portage La Prairie up until this year.
10. I worry more about Anna than I do about Meghan because I think that Anna is going to be a very self- concious person.
11. I have trouble looking people in the eye because I am always worried that they see my eye tic and think that I am weird or inferior.
12. I am totally addicted to Facebook and Truuconfessions.
13. As soon as I am done this I am going to reward myself with Cream Cheese and Salsa.
14. I am not one of those people who can be nice to people I really don't like.
15. People often think I am a bitch when they first meet me. I'm not, but I am shy and it takes me awhile to feel comfortable with  people.
16. I WISH THIS BABY WOULD GET OUT!!!!
17. I cannot go to bed with my house messy. I would never be able to relax.
18.  We moved a lot when I was growing up and the place I have the best memories from is Flin Flon.
19.  I make $18 an hour and I have held peoples hands as they died because they had no family to come and sit with them. It always feels weird getting paid on days like that.
20. If I make it to 100 on this list before this baby is born I'm gonna be PISSED!!!
21. I have to have a coffee from Tim's everyday.
22. I would rather clean up puke than boogers.
23. Chips are my weakness.
24. I would rather go on an Alaskan cruise than sit on a beach somewhere warm.
25. I am dreading Anna going to kindergarten next year, and I have no doubt that I am going to be the mom crying the loudest.
