It's been awhile

This month has completely flew by. WOW the days are growing closer til I can get out of this hell hole!!
Let's break it down. We've taken the kids to the movies and have realized that it would be best for all involved not to take them again until they are older....10 or 11 years of age. Dvd's are released fairly quickly so we are fine with that.
Trying to get my tubes tied so if you all could say a prayer that this will go through that would be great!!! SO. DO. NOT. want any more childrens!!!
Uncle is having a hard time with his life and I am content with allowing him to do his own thing as long as it doesn't involve me. Can I get an amen?

Princess is still cracking me up. Today we were driving home and she told me "to hurry up cause the clouds were out and they were dark and she was so running out of time to blow her bubbles!" (this is a three years olds nightmare having bubbles and not having the time to blow them outside!)
I tried to cut out carbs then I realized there would be no reason to live without them. I have decided to cut back on them and try to eat smarter. A woman needs her potatoes and chili fries.
Sister1 is SO A SCORPIO that it is hard to keep up. If things aren't dire then she is making some changes and I keep up by keeping all her texts so that I can remember (I'm closer to 40 than 30 now memory is the first to go) what is going on day by day.

Hubby is trying to be nice because last week he told me "You better be nice to me or one day you'll wake up and I'll be gone." I responded "That will not be necessary if you feel that we shouldn't be together I'll be the one to leave I'll gladly take my shit and pick up princess every other weekend, just give me three days notice and I'm outta here." This shocked him and he has been really nice, who knew reverse psychology would work on an adult? Seriously though, all he has to say is the word and my ass is out of here without even trying. No worries!!
Sister3 had some back issues that really bothered me (yes I know she was the one in pain but I can't handle my sisters in pain)and we had to make a 2 a.m. run to the hospital, many pain pills later and she is doing much much better!!! She cracks me up. I've realized that she has a parallel life to that of Jen Lancaster, author extraordinaire, so I gave her a book of hers to read and it still sits on her coffee table...three weeks later. HOWEVER Prince has read a few pages.
I'll blog more later...my fingers are tired!

My BFF is here

Straight from Mississippi....she is here cause her young cousin killed herself. Which meant I went to the funeral services. I knew of her but didn't know her well. I felt horrible for the family and remember the pain. Her sister really broke my heart I do not want to have to deal with that pain ever....my sisters are my heart. For the family; I hope they can make peace with things for themselves.
However it brought home my BFF. She makes things seems okay. I mean hell if she can survive a Jerry Springer life, then maybe I can deal with this house for four more months? Right??? Her now exhusband is now living and reproducing with her step-mom. The woman raised her and is now raising her children. It's pathetic that it ever happened and a complete shock when it did cause I called that whore "mom" too. I mean she yelled at me and made me do dishes just like my BFF. It is disgusting. She showed up at the services and tried to say "hi" to me but I gave her the dirtiest look I could and that woman walked in then walked out before I could gauge a reaction. In my opinion it would have been best that she not show there. It is my BFF's family not hers.

My sister's new dog Pinto is doing fine he is just really mean and probably needs a new home already. He stayed the night at Sister3's house and ate an old chicken bone, probably from last summers BBQ, and got sick in her bed, so she loaded him up and dropped him off at home. Besides he was bothering the Chihuahua and that is a sin. Pinto is home, alone.

Yes I do have a muffin top

and this makes me sad. Damn it being home makes you hungry not to mention that now that I have the time to cook I've been cooking! Then there are lunches with the sisters and they just had to open the damn Dairy Queen two weeks ago, yes there was snow on the ground and that just isn't the way it's suppose to be done here in Michigan. Did I mention on Mondays you get a free Sundae?
Now that I'm staying home and reading the coupons that we get, I've found five free tans at a local tanning place! Just cause I'm Mexican doesn't mean my skin is dark...it does mean that I can tan and usually spare the burn.
My cat needs a new home. For that matter so do I. I hate this house. The water heater hasn't worked in a month so daily it has to be re lit. I know right? WTF? Yes we told our wonderful slumlord and he still hasn't done anything and neither has hubby. I completely expected him to do nothing cause that would require him to give a damn, however he is perfectly willing to hear me bitch and to light the damn thing sometimes four times a day. Who knew you needed hot water so much.
So I asked my sister what she wanted and it seems I have made her think, which is evident by the text messages that I receive. Which of course makes me wonder what I want....so I'm making a list.....
starting with a home. (a real home a place that I love and feel food about coming "home" to, a place where it is welcoming and comforting at the same time, a place that my kids can come home to.)
Just starting this list so this may take some serious blogging time.
New furniture, that I need too. My loveseat should be on the lawn, my chairs need to be kindling and my bed is older than teen son. on these I can wait until I get that first one. Teen son isn't doing well in school!! Call me Shelby but he has to get it together for himself. Really does he want to explain how he attended classes every day and still managed to fail an elective?? Seriously he has to be sleeping in the class...but being Mom looks like I have to go up there and ask the teacher what the hell is going on. This may get ugly.

Broke a nail

Twice!!
First time I get a call from curly headed friend so that she can tell me I may have issues with my insurance...jesushchrist...but it has all worked out. I would have had to go in there all Mexican and stuff on those claims peeps! Not my fault some asshole backed into my mom's car and broke it. Bastards.
Then Sister2 and I had an argument. nail break number two. The reason is because of a certain youtube video. She went overboard and well I lost it. Not a good thing cause we are all we have is each other. Sisterhood is being able to say "You fu*&ked up and then I love you." however I forgot to say the I love you part. My bad.
Sister3 and I have been busy lately. We have so much to do with the little ones. I know that she is really stressed out and that is not a good thing, but she doesn't want to talk about it...I think we are all a bit on edge.
Note to self: make plans for you and sisters to go out and get completely trashed and then if all works out well we should be passed out on curly headed friends' porch!! She needs more drama and something to tell her mom about.
Princess had been extremely funny lately...she "understands" everything.
Funny thing about family is that regardless of the insanity it is the family that keeps you sane. Who else knows everything about you? Even if my gay uncle thinks he is "the most normal uncle we have except the gay part." Yes I laughed my ass off about that.
Sister1 has changed her life!!again, but still she is changing & I think she is moving in the right direction. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

The Break a Nail omen

In my many years of nail wisdom I've found that my nail care can be directly linked to the experiences of the day. If I break a nail something is going to screwed up that day period. Like an old person who can tell you that is going to rain because they can feel it in their bones, yeah well I have that power kinda in my nails. If you need to know call me, I'll check my nails.
This Tuesday is free pancakes at Ihop. **dancing around the room** I am giving everyone the day off to attend this glorious event!!!
Sister1's new pup, Pinto spent the weekend at Sister3's house, only to attempt to escape....which of course led to his first beating cause Sister3 don't play that!! She isn't going to chase blocks down the street in the snow for some new pup just because he is cute!
I took Princess to see that mouse, the Tales of Despereaux, do not take your daughters to watch this mouse!! Actually there is a scene that just killed it!! A young girl, drawn rather ugly and overweight, who works on a pig farm in the mud dreaming of one day living in the castle, 16th century cartoon, and then is sold to the castle as a slave girl for the same price as a swine...only to have the narrator say Careful what you wish for. Yes we walked out of the movie. I wanted to at that very point, but princess wanted to see the mouse however as soon as she stated she was tired we were out of there!!!
I am addicted to Sudoku. I am ashamed but at least I am using my brain, cause being a housewife isn't rocket science.
One of my curly headed friends called me the other day (several times I might add) to tell me she is finally leaving her husband. Several years of abuse and she is going to finally do it! I'll believe it when I see it but I think that final straw has broke. Some women can take a lot more abuse than others, because they make up excuses for men, while some women prefer to cut off the penis. Rose is a rose.
I was all excited the other day cause Sister1 called to say she wanted to go to BINGO...this one has no pimp at the door and is walking distance from my house...and it just never happened. What upsets me is that now some other Bingo person has won my pot. I know I could have gone alone but truth be told I forgot about it until I drove past it yesterday.
I hate snow.

Princess today is Peter Griffin

I know I know, but I do let her watch Family Guy, Brian in so damn funny!!
Let's see we've went to Elmo and that was really cool. Great seats and I think an ex-boyfriends' brother was two row in front of me. I survived.
Hubby is currently addicted to sudoko. He bought a book of the puzzles and I picked it up and did some, that seems to have messed with his brain and he started erasing all the ones I had done. Seriously. I think he gets in these moods when he doesn't work like he should. Like he has to have some type of order and when I happen to do something that makes him like skip a page, he gets all nutso. Next time I'll use a pen. Reminds me that crimes of passion only give you hospital time. A vacation really. I mean they make you meals and deliver them to you in your bed, I don't get that at home. Clean beds and sheets. I can do that!
Teen son has found his groove. He has been helping at sister3's house and I'm glad that he is working. He is hoping for some extra cash to put in his pocket, since he has no job.
This is just another quicky. If curly headed friend really loved me she'd pay my insurance. just saying

Bangs are really hard to take care of

How the hell did I forget about that???
Yes I made it to my Hairdresser's and she chopped me some bangs and I really like them except teen son said they make me look OLD. The nerve of that boy some times.
How about a funny?
Well last night sister1 calls me and has broken up with her man, something she does like once a week. But this phone call was different because she said "This was the last straw!!!!!!" wait for it..... For their two year anniversary he brought her a surprise....a bologna sub from Subway with black olives (she hates), onions(she hates more!) and Italian dressing(she will kill that man). I was laughing so hard my stomach muscles ached. Seems the man can be gay, but bring her a bologna sub and that is the last straw!!!!
Sister3 has an interview today and she looks FABULOUS!!! So that right there means she will get the job.

Oh yeah I hate this house, cause now I think it is haunted.
