We are out of Here!!

After months of being quiet and talking in "Code" Abby and I are going on our first "Meme and Me" trip

I am whisking her off to So. Cal for a sweet spring break. The best part is she has NO clue!! Has she seen the Hotwire papers up on the fridge? Yep!! (But she also knows that my blow dryer is on the blink SO if your a new 7 year old you accept the reason " its the wires in the blow dryer information") there nothing like sweet timing..
There are 5 peeps she has just about daily contact with that are either going to Disneyland or Disneyworld this spring break including her new BFF from church and school. And let us not forget my work family left TODAY for Disneyland so the poor this has been pelted with the idea she is not going...ANYWHERE

I have saved and saved.. said no we don't have the $$ to many of things, wiped out the VISA, bit the bullet and by GOLLY We are out of HERE...

Humm it's Saturday night at 9pm do you think she knows anything?? I mean come on our flight is at 8:45 am SHE KNOWS NATA. My very creative mom has devised a fun scavenger hunt to let the cat out of the bag. She is a creature of habit she will wake at oh 630 ask to go watch TV and the hunt will start.. Ya I know we need to leave at 645 but we can do it...We have a ton of things planned but the best thing I have planned is to spend time enjoying her!! and seeing our family I have not been home for a while. This is a first trip back as me a single mom going back to my roots to see all that is dear. Lets not forget I am a California girl at heart!!

Wish me luck

Best part of your day

We all have parts in our day we really do not like much, it can be a wide range of activities, the daily chores, work, school we all have them.
However we all have parts of our day we love!
Whats yours?
Mine is easy. Its picking up Abby from school. She is always so excited to see me and I am just as excited to see her. The 10 min in the car before my work days starts a new chapter is the best. It like we both have so much to say to each other I just love it.

I was a latch key kid while I was growing up. Even as a young child I always told myself I would do what I had to do to ensure my child would have a mom or a dad pick her up. So far I have picked her up except 3 times in two years ( Garth did one day and she went to a girlfriends house for the other two) Any way I pray every day, that the Lord blesses me with this. Its hard being a single mom! But with all moms we do what we can.

What is the best part of your day??

A gift to You

Vapers, Syncope, what she's 6

So for years I have let Abby see my medical books (excepts for sick children of ares of the body deemed "private") Any way there has never been a problem with body parts, organs or blood. It has always been par for the coarse around here. I really explain allot of things to her. She told her preschool teacher when ask "Were does food go? her sweet reply was "First through your esophagus than stomach and than to your intestines" OK so now fast forward

This Saturday she was with Garth and while there they do lot of fun things and unfortunately she comes back with minor scratch as bruises. It's just the nature of having a good time with Daddy. This time it was on her elbow, it's a dozy let me fast forward.

Today in Church it started to ooze and weep allot I tried to fix it with a borrowed baby wipe but it was not going to cut it. I started to take her to the kitchen for another band aid to add to the pile and she got light headed. We stayed in the chapel and gave her some candy I had in my purse. She was fine in a few min and I than took her to the kitchen, got the band aid returned to Sacrament..

Bad idea !! a few minuets later she got all clammy, pale and dizzy and told me she was "so sleepy" as she was leaning over. I picked her up and put her in my lap and blow on her face. She recovered fine. Still we needed to leave after a few more minuets on the way out to the car she was weaving back and forth she was "so sleepy" After about 10 min in bed reading books she was just fine. And "will never look at a boo boo again" poor thing oh the drama.

Note to self: She cannot watch any more medical shows with me!

Myspace and Facebook WHY ?

"MySpace: 90,000 sex offenders removed from site "

This is my opinion

This is why I can not get into the My space and Face book thing "NOW" (maybe later, but not now.) I just feel it's to open I now you only "let" or "invite" peeps in you know, but do you really know somebody that you had in English class in your High School days, or better yet grew up with and have not seen them for 20 years.

I realize "?" tainted the whole thing for me ! I know its not the site that let's someone be "unfaithful" or "creepy" or "Salkish" But I just can not get over it. How many people do it.I appreciate all the fun thing about it but come on. Tell me how reconnecting with someone you knew 20 years ago so "much fun" I just don't get it??

PS This is my blog my opinions Please do not feel the need to "educate me with your ideas on why it so much fun". I have a ream of paper of particular "messages" to tell you why its not for me or ANY one EVER in My HOME Now in 5 years I may do it and you can kindly through this back in my face lol

Love to all xoxo pleae still love me

Where's my bubbles!

OK I have been doing well on my New Year's "idea" It was to live a healthful life That includes the following
1) Eat better in return more energy, lose weight
2) Be a more present Mother ( I'm no longer living the " get through the day" I fell I'm over my crisis so to say If we ever really get over it?) Another time for that topic
3) Be supportive to my friends and family and take time to do little things for them.
4) Read to Abby
5) Something in Something out.. When you down size you realize you don't really need all that stuff we have

And lastly have a home with "improving" health. Such as as I need to purchase new things think Green, Organic and recyclable and as natural as I can. But there is a problem. The dish soap is not as good as my stand by Dawn I have try-ed Method from Target but 1) Not as bubbly 2) dose not work as well!

So I here asking for ideas on the products you all use.

PS:As some of you know I am ADDICTIVE to Clorox Bleach I will not give it up. But other ideas are welcome

A blast from the past & I'm going to pee

So my new buddy Stephanie,( may walking buddy.) just got linked up to my Blog and said she read some of my past post .. SO I thought I would read some to to see how far we have come.. Its late I'm tired and I'm going to pee I giggled so hard.

This is one of the best examples of me and Abby chit - chatting in the car. Keep in mind she dose not have a speech problem, it was a while back and she had never really heard the word with clear dictation I'm sure
Enjoy

The WHAT
Today as I pick up Abby from school
"Hi Mommy how was your day at school"?
"Oh it was a hard one today I was working with sick-o germs in the lab"
"Do your eyes hurt from the micrcooop"?
"NA, but the words are hard to say I need to learn some new big words"
"Mommy I want to go to the pup a weary"
"The WHAT"
"You know Mrs. H. is going to be there with all my friends"
"OK well I think we can look at the times and see, Abby what is that place Mommy doesn't know what you mean?"
"Mommy the pup a weary"
"Hunny did you get a note about it today?"
"Ya sure"She hands me several note with information on it
1) a School Pep Rally....... Ah yes this must be it! Well than I see
2) a Puppies show of some sort at the local park !!! Humm yes its clear now NOT
"Hunny I do not see it !!
I will call Mrs. H. and ask in the morning"
"Mommy all my friends will be there you know the ones in my class, the one with spike hair, the one with brownie skin, the one with all the long ponies and the boy who gets the naughty notes. All my friends"
"OK OK OK" ( ya right what on earth is she talking about)
"MOMMY MOMMY there that is were I want to go by the movie place, Look!!!!"
"You mean the public Library?"
"Ya the pup a weary.. they have books on puppies"
As it turns out it is our schools month at the local library and one night this month her class is going to try to meet up..... her little words got all tangled, much like mine do at school these days. As you all know spelling is not my strong point... well neither is saying the names of bacteria in a oral quiz. Never the less, we will be going to the pup a weary soon Have a good one...
