I want a romantic anniversary!!!!

that was my attempt at whining. I'm not good at it. It's been so long since I've gotten really anything that I've wanted I've just given up on it. However it is our seventh year anniversary. That deserves something!! I just want a getaway. Anywhere. Just away. I want some one on one time with hubby. We need to bring back that loving feeling. I just don't think it is going to happen. He isn't romantic at all. Plus we never have "extra cash" to do stuff. Pffft. I can remember always going on trips, especially weekend ones and I loved it.
I love Northern Michigan in the fall. The trees are so beautiful!!
Enough with the mushy stuff.
Let's see, loving the new job, hating the drive. Over all I needed to work in a less stressful environment. Thankyoubabyjesus.
It's hard being living with a teen/adult in the house, seems he has his own agenda and that is not the agenda I think he should have, but I am only his mother. Thin ice. Very thin ice.
Princess told me that she is not my slave. Really?? Cause I only had her so that once she is old enough she can clean everything and then make dinner.

Princess-isms

We are now in kindergarten and the world as we knew it has changed.
Princess knows everything. Duh. I just don't remember being so smart as a kid. As a matter of fact the older I get the less I remember about being a child. I know it had to be easy.
Anywho seems she decided to write down our home address on my business card and passed it out to a few of her friends.
Thank you Princess!!!!
She also knows that she is super cute!!!

Reasons if I die Hubby cannot have our child

First of all she may never eat real food again. He only feeds her from convince stores such as 7-11 and the corner store.
He cannot manage his own time so I am sure he would not make it to pick her up from school or for that matter get her to school on time.
She would talk like a sailor and that would be f*&%$g not right. She is young and impressionable.
She would never bathe, because not that she isn't months old he can no longer see her nakey. That would be horrible.
Her hair would always be a mess. He cannot brush her hair and thinks that since she is a girl and 5 she should have all the skills necessary to care for her own hair.
*palm to face* I shiver thinking of how he would dress her.
So if I die she is to go into the care of any of my sisters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finding food on 8 Mile Rd

Is the most exhausting feat in the world!! Are you kidding me?? I can get liquor and not just liquor but the cheapest liquor in town on each corner but no PIZZA!!! Welcome to da hood!!! You cannot eat but you can get drunk!! Whilst my downriver curly headed friends are deciding where they'd like to eat cause there is food on every corner.

The is a deli called The Bread Basket a couple of blocks down. So excited was I that this place existed!! They had an on line menu so I happily order for my co-worker, who does not have curly hair, that I call asap.
Order the sammies.
Me: I'd like the club, but a half order.
guy on phone: We don't do halves.
Me: Okay I'll take the 6 oz
guy on phone: They are called minis
Me: that isn't what your menu says!!
haha
guy on phone: you know you've called the one on Grd River

Palm to forehead
ME: no I wanted the one down the street....
guy on phone: Don't worry I'll call and give them your mini orders!
ME: Really?!? Cool!!

So I go down the street to pick up our minis...
and I get the "She's here!! She's here!!"

**brownpapaerbag*** A bit embarassed but I took a bow and grabbed my food

My club sandwich is six inches tall
The onion rings are divine!!! They are huge and nothing is better than huge food. All Americans know this :)

Trying to be green

So I am now recycling Yeah me!!
I am trying to reuse as much as possible. So since princess is going like a weed, I take her old clothes to a kid resale shop and look for her some sweaters..thinking maybe we can do an even trade. Nope, nada, not happening. They only wanted three pair of her jeans and only offered me $5. I had $50 worth of gently used clothing in my arms. I was shocked but WTF?!?!? She needed clothes and I needed to get rid of some of the crazy stuff we had in the casa.

Sister 1 is still on leave from work, when I grow older I want to be her!
Sister 2 has her little man peddling fudge for funds for school.
Sister 3 has just taken in a foster doggy!!

Dad is still in mid life crisis!

So I have way to many shows I am addicted to!!
Housewives...they do not have any breaks they just move to a different zip code and have even had a spinoff which I could not miss because Bethany is my fav housewive of all time!!!! Then there are the "premium" channels that have it down to a science I am addicted to "Dexter, Weeds, Big Love, The Big C, I can go on and on.
Then there is Jersey Shore and Toddler and Tierras and Teen Mom, my DVR cannot handle the masses of shows and there isn't enough time to catchup!! Now my new coworker has me addicted to Intervention.

**rollingmyeyeslaughingmyarseoff***

MidLife Crisis

So dad has gone and bought a sports car. **eyerolling** He is susper excited and his reasoning is that it will save him on gas! Dad up for adoption.

Princess is in school and it is pure hell waking her up!! She is just like her father, a groch in the morings. This morning she told me I better make her french toast for breakfast "You are my MOTHER and you have to FEED ME!! Make me some french toast!"

At least Teenage son is helping and I appreciate that.
He takes her to school and picks her up when he can.

Had to leave the Crazy Place !@%$#*@

I was seriously losing my mind.
The boss was out of her mind and did not notice that maybe just maybe the place needed some TLC. No one is perfect but I could not handle the everyday stresses any more.
So I left and have made it to a normal office with normal things happening...it is a slower pace than I'm use to so I guess that means I get to blog a bit more **highfive***
Teen son has lost his damn mind. He thinks he is joining the military as if I'd allow that to happen.....He has been very busy doing nothing. It is so hard being an eighteen year old.

The Princess has started kindergarten and she loves it!!!
She plans to be the most popular and beautiful girl in the school period. She is all about how her hair looks and what she is wearing. She believes the teen boy down the street is in love, heart love, with her, and she tells me about it all the time.

Curly headed friend is a granny now so she is really really busy all the time and can't seem to make it anywhere any more. Other curly headed friend is a granny too....I think I'd lose it if that happened to me anytime soon.

I miss my co-worker and hate that she is in hell all alone. Let us pray for her and also that she may one day find her unicorn :)
