Happy Friday!! Another dreary day here in SE WI. I only have one kid this a.m. I'll pick up Katie from the IL's around 10. Then to the grocery store. Home for lunch and then pack Katie up for a slumber party. Drop her off around 3. My mom will let me know what time they are getting Molly. DH and I will meet my parents to drop her off and then we are going out to dinner!! Gasp! All by ourselves!! We are going to try a new mexican restaurant in town. Then home to bed, because dh has to work again tomorrow. Oh well, it will be sooooooo nice to be out by ourselves.
Hope everyone has a great day!!

Wow, am I actually the second poster to this thread ?
Good Morning Moms!
Well, so far things have gone far smoother than yesterday. Nikki had a much better morning and hopefully has a great day. I have to take the twins to school for the Kindergarten reading assessment which their teachers will administer one on one. That's about it. TGIF!!
And Wendy, I haven't got a chance to say I love the pic in your avatar!! So glad I can see you.

cookies stink? what is wrong with that girl??? LOL
I have more laundry to do, then more cleaning, and more schoolwork... my life sounds like a broken record this week LOL. I had a friend give Hannah 3 trash bags full of clothes, so I've been trying to wash and sort everything, and pull out things out of the kids closets that they've outgrown. I also need to go through things to pass on to my neice... gotta love hand-me-downs!
uh oh... I just looked over and Brayden is stripping... time to go! LOL
have a wonderful & blessed day!
I never know what to say, so I don't usually post. Each day is pretty much the same as the last...sit around, watch TV, take care of a little housework, just hang around until naptimes. Not much to do. Too rainy to get out and play today.
This sahm thing is tough for me. I wasn't made for it, but I didn't know that 3 years ago, and there's nothing I can do about it now. I have no childcare, no one to depend on, no friends to interact with, and no jobs in the area (even part-time) that would make trying to find childcare worth it. I could work at the gas station/bar, or the local grocery store who kept fleecing (I had a different word all picked out, but the sensors may not like it) my mom when she worked there. Some people are made to take care of kids and it's what they live for. They are highly fulfilled by it. I am not one of those people. But too late to do anything about it. I'm an only child and I was a military brat for my formative years, so I was raised around adults. I had no previous knowledge of children - even from school (I was a loner). Anyway. Sorry. I needed to vent, but I'm also looking for suggestions. Part of it is that everybody focuses on the kids and then forgets that I even exist, or they only see me as "Mommy" and not as a person. Did any of you go through this, or are you going through it? What did you do? Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help! (Sorry if this was a bummer.) Okay, there's another misconception you guys might be able to help clear up. I feel like coming to the board with these kinds of posts - not real happy, lots of questions and frustrations - is just a bummer nobody wants to hear and eventually you guys won't like me because I'm just a downer. Is that at all true? (Be 100% honest with me - honesty hurts less than getting surprised with the facts later.) I have good stuff to post, too, but right now all the stress is getting in the way of letting the good stuff come out.
I went and got a new puppy today. Just could not stand the fact that Domingas brother was still at the pound and no one wanted him, so we got him :)
I have to go get Andrew in a few and then head to the store to get some things for the new puppy.
