Can I just say how glad I am that the weekend and today are over.

I just seemed like nothing could go right.

*Saturday night I took Princess Shaney to hang out with some of her friends. I decided to take my camera with me, because I haven't done that for a while. After I dropped her off, I went and picked up Prince Krusher from his dad's house so he could go hang out with some friends. Now the thing about Prince Krusher is, when he goes to his friends' house, he needs to take all his Xbox stuff with him. So, when we got to his friends house he asked me to take the Xbox home, I told him I would if he would put it on the front seat so that I wouldn't forget it in the car. I got home and got the Xbox off the front seat and took it in the house.

*Sunday, I was having my morning coffee and sitting outside on the porch doing my other bad habit and watching the sunrise. I was sitting there (freezing my butt off) thinking that would be a cool picture. That's when it hit me; it had been in the minus degrees during the night and I left my freaking camera in the car!
Later in the day, I decided I really needed to put some air in my tires because my tire pressure light had been on for a while. So, I went to the gas station and proceeded to put air in my tires. I was on the last tire, I put air in and then put the air gauge in to see where I had the pressure, I must of had a little too much air in, because instead of just the end popping out to show you the air pressure, the damn thing came SHOOTING out the end and pieces went everywhere!

*Today, I went out to start my car so I could go to my mom's and hang out for the day and the stupid thing would not start. Like I said before it has been in the negative degrees here during the nights for the past week or two. I just figured that is what the problem was. But oh no, it couldn't be that easy instead, I had to spend $100 and buy a new battery for my car. Now it is running just great!

Well, there is my update on the crappy weekend. Hope you all had a better weekend and hope you have a great week!

Happy New Year-Bring on 2013!

First, I just want to say Happy New Year to everyone! I hope you all had a fun and safe holiday. I am so glad 2012 is over and this year (and years to come) is going to be the best ever.

I am one who has quit making resolutions; I always fail at them. So, this year, I am going to set little goals. I will begin with 3 goals. When one is completed, I will add a new one to take the completed ones place. I am hoping to complete these goals with the help from all of you. I will be posting about them weekly.
So, here are my first 3 goals:

1- I want to get healthy this year, so my first goal is to loose 20 lbs  this year.

2- I want to quit being a doormat for everyone, especially my kids. They will all
    have new rules to follow this year and they are going to find out
    Queen Mamma can be a Bitch!

3- I am going to update my blog every day.

To help me do that, I am going to have categories for each day of the week;

*Monday- will be family updates- to let you know how things are going
   with the kids and if I am still being a doormat or not.
*Tuesday- will be about whatever I decide to post about; just miscellaneous things.
*Wednesday- will be my post to share on Pour Your Heart Out
*Thursday- will be about things I have been working on, photography, crochet, etc.
*Friday-will be weigh-in days. Self explaining. I will be able to keep you up to    date on the weight loss progress.

Hope to see everyone regularly. And Happy New Year!

Til we meet again! Pam

MIA-Long Enough

I cannot believe that I have not made a post since June! Sooo much has happened since that last post.

*Princess Daughter's grandmother's home burnt down 4 days after that last post and her (Princess Daughter's) 2 year old cousin passed away in the fire.

* The first weekend in July, my 26 year old nephew had a stroke! He doesn't drink, smoke or do drugs. He is a firefighter so he was in pretty good shape.
He was in the hospital about 6 weeks before he was released and could continue with out patient physical therapy. On August 12 we had a HUGE party to celebrate his 27 birthday! He has since returned back to work full time and you can not even tell anything ever happened.

*On October 4, Princess Daughter's grandmother passed away. She had never fully recovered from the fire.

*On October 19, my friend's dad passed away. That was really hard on me. I hadn't seen him in 9 months. He called me 2 weeks prior to his passing to let me know he had been diagnosed with Leukemia. I told him I would be over the next day to visit him. But the princes & princesses had all been sick so I kept putting it off because I didn't want to take germs to him.
No one told me it was stage 4 and there was nothing to be done. On the 19 his daughter called me and let me know he had passed. I had never made it to see him.

I am glad that we have started getting back to normal around here and now that you are all caught up. Hopefully I can be here more regularly.
Til we met again! Pam
