Blah Blah Blah

So we all know that there have been plenty of times that you have just wanted to say or even scream BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!  Well some days are worse than others. When you are having one of those days that you don't really want to talk to anyone and you don't really care what they have to say or you are tired of hearing the same ole, same ole. Don't you just want to turn around and say blah, blah , blah and then make your hand move like a mouth while you are saying, just to make sure that you are getting your point across?  Like when your husband is complaining about the dishes not being done or that the kids are making a mess. Well Blah, Blah , Blah and BTW - why don't you do something about it? How about when you are at work and you walk to the cafeteria to get lunch and that obnoxious co-worker ends up in line behind you?  They think that just because you guys are standing in line together that make you best friends for the moment and it's time to share your feelings. Not interested!  When the same people at work complain about the same things day after day and never offer any real solution but just bitch about stuff to be bitching.....well Blah, Blah Blah to them!   I am not trying to be a crabby witch, I am just saying that I don't always have to want to talk and I don't always have to listen to your complaining. Some days I just want to be alone in my own thoughts and think about my own problems. Some days I just want to say Blah, Blah , Blah!

What a Weekend

What a busy weekend!  Whoa it was over before I knew it!  Time flies when you are having fun right? Saturday morning I woke up early and got the kiddos ready for grandmas. Red Bud was packed for 9:30 in the morning. Too many people for me especially when I am in a hurry. Move it people (that is putting what I was really saying nicely!)  Finally got the kids dropped off and then headed to Brandy Inn to meet the girls. As soon as I met Angeline in  the parking lot I told her it was beer time because I wasn't about to waste one second of our girl day!  We had a drink and then headed to Alton!   We made it to Fast Eddies about noon ordered our food and drinks and the girl's day was officially started! Whoo Hoo! Lets see I started off with a couple of beers and then I was like, "why the hell am I drinking beer?  No husband, I'm not driving and it is a beautiful freaking day!"  Bring on the Bloody Mary's!  Well I drank about four of those until I started feeling a rumble in my tummy and then I figured I better switch again. Switched to Captain and Coke! Old friend that I don't visit very often!  WE finally left there and while we were in the parking lot, two of us walked to the gas station for beer and the other three got Angeline and her breast pump situated in the car!  Ok so I never breast fed and honestly do not know the whole process, but we had some fun photo shots of everyone and the breast pump!  Enough said! LOL!  Then we headed to the Loading Dock. First time there and I LOVED it!  Beautiful place. We danced, sucked cherries up our noses (well at least I did!) and Hula Hooped!  I think we might have been a little tipsy. We left there around eight and headed back. For some the night last much later....!

Sunday, I woke up early feeling pretty good considering and then headed to my dad's for his Birthday. When we pulled up at the house a huge ass Hummer limo pulled up behind us. Surprise dad!  My step mom rented a limo to take us to Dave n Busters!  My wonderful dad nicely sad that he would have preferred the money that was spent on the limo!  Oh dad that is so classy!  We headed to D& B and made a pit stop at Walgreen's because someone forgot the diapers!  Wink, wink!  Friends and family were waiting there for us and we ate dinner and then headed to the game room.  I did some boxing and kicked ass even though Kenny said some girls were making fun of me while I was doing it because I looked retarded! Well I think they were just jealous of my boxing moves.  Finally headed home around 10:00 . Whew! Long day!   Oh and our limo driver said that he hada 50th birthday the previous day and he had taken the people to the Loading Dock!  Funny because I remember seeing a limo there!  Small world.

Well today sucked because I was tired and it was Monday.  Tomorrow I will start the work week off better!  See you all tomorrow!!

If only I hadn't....

So now I am going to share some of my regrets instead of my wishes.....

If only I hadn't.... hooked up with that guy in high school that ruined every year except my senior year. He was controlling, physically abusive and it ruined 3 years of my high school life. I will never let that happen to my babies! On the positive note, it made me a stronger and a better person!

If only I hadn't.....decided to drink and drive after mardigras!  that was when I got my 2nd DUI!  It was 10 + years ago but it will always be with me and it was one of the stupidest things I have ever done!

If only I hadn't......lied and told Kenny I would be home at a certain time and didn't show up. I  guess it would have saved us a fight!

If only I hadn't..... bought a size in pants that fit exactly right. Now I wouldn't be bitching because the shit doesn't fit me!

If only I hadn't......told that friend that she was obnoxious when she was drunk. I guess she has a right to be pissy with me!

If only I hadn't.....forgot to take my crazy pill!  Sorry for whoever was in my path that night!

Grow some balls and share yours!

If only....

Everyone has had these thoughts before and some you may share with others and some you may keep a secret. Well I am going to share a few of my "If Only" secrets, but not quite ALL of them!

If Only......my house was like the Jetsons! Seriously I wish all I had to do was push a button and dinner was made, my hair and make up were done, dishes, laundry and dusting were cleaned all in like 2 minutes! Wouldn't it be nice to have a shower where you could push a button and your hair would be washed your teeth brushed and all without lifting a finger. The robot maid would be a nice touch too!

If Only.....there was a magic pill to lose weight. I know there are diet pills out there that claim to work but if you read the advertisement they all say with exercise. Well no shit! We all know exercise helps you to lose weight, but what if we don't want to exercise. What will that pill do for me then?!

If Only.....I had as good of fashion sense as Steve that I work with. Come on! The guy knows how to dress!

If Only..... I could read people's minds. Now this might not be good all the time, so I would want to be able to turn it on and off whenever I wanted, but I would love to know what people are thinking that they are too scared to say out loud.

If Only....it didn't cost so much money to have kids because I would love to have another one! Yes, I know that is crazy but I love my kids and I love watching them as they grown up and learn new things every day. They make me feel like a kid too and who doesn't want to feel young again?

If Only....cigarettes weren't bad for you. I know that I need to quit for my health and the sake of my kids but I love smoking, especially when I am having cocktails!

If Only.....I could take all the people I didn't like and put them in a town together far, far away!  Out of sight, out of mind!

If Only....I didn't have to have liquid courage to speak my mind sometimes. Even though it is not the best time to say what you have been holding in, sometimes it is the only time I have the guts to say it!

Finally....the biggest one!  If Only.... I could keep my little angels little forever and with me always. I know they have to grow up but I cant imagine how it must feel when your kids grown up and move out and start their own life.  Time goes by too fast!

Well that is all I am sharing for now!   Go ahead and share some of you If only secrets!

Monday felt like Funday!

So I usually dread Monday's but today wasn't too bad. I started off the day sleeping in. Who needs an alarm clock? Not this girl!  I will go to work whenever I darn well feel like it!  So once I decide to wake up and panic because I am almost an hour late, I jump in the car and race down route 3 passing every car in my way.  So is it a bad thing to speed up when you see that a bus is a few cars in front of you and you know that if you don't hurry up and pass this school bus now, you are going to be stuck stopping at every freaking bus stop?!?!  Well I did it and then turned my head to the side because I didn't want the kids on the bus to see me! LOL!  If it means anything, I did feel bad for speeding past the bus full of kids.

I was in a pretty good mood all day at work. I don't know why. It was the kind of happy mood that you have when it is Friday and you have some big plans for the weekend. I do have plans this weekend to go to Fast Eddies, but it is only Monday and there is still 4 more days to the week.  Hmmm, maybe I should take off Friday and shorten my week!

I played dress up with Livie when I got home and danced around her bedroom with princess clothes that I could only put on half my body and a crown that was digging into my head, but hey it made her happy.  Then I did the unbelievable......I went to the gym and worked out!  I have gained like 15 pounds over the summer and I am totally disgusted with my weight but it seems like every time I try to get motivated it only last for a day or too. Maybe it is a good sign that I started the week off on a good note! 

Weekend Wonders

So now that I got my first blog out of the way I guess I will just dive right into my second one.Now that my secret is out of the bag (that I am blogging) I am getting mixed reactions. For the most part my friends think that is is great that I have decided to start blogging and look forward to reading. My husband on the other hand thinks that it is silly and stupid and my mother in law jokingly told me not to share too many secrets. I guess the title of my blog might have misled some people. Let me clerify that I dont plan on spilling everyone's secrets on here. I just hope that this is a place I can share things about my life and be a little more open than what I can be on facebook.  Now on to the weekend recaps....

So, Saturday I cleaned around the house which feels like a hopeless task most of the time. I feel like I am busting my butt just to keep up withe the basics (laundry, dishes, picking stuff up and putting it away). I feel like I need a day off work with no kids and no husband to really have the oppertunity to deep clean my house the way it should be. Oh well, one can dream right?  Later Saturday afternoon we went and picked up one of Austin's friends and headed to Kenny's moms for dinner and visiting time. The appertizers, margaritas and dinners were fantastic. Debbie out did herself as usual. The kids ran around and played while some of us played cards and the rest sat around a caught up on happenings. The kids always look forward to seeing their uncle Scott. Since Scott can be like a big kid himself sometimes, the kids love playing and teasing with him. Leave it to Scott though to liven up the night with his teasing and somewhat inappropriate comments. One of the funniest that night was Scott asking his step sister if her "new short" haircut meant she was swinging the other way now!?!  OMG did he really just ask that!?  While a few of them (Scott included) played cards I sat back with Kristen thankful that we decided not to play. I think besides grandma Ahne, everyone at the table was nit picking or making fun of they way each other played.  To stressful for me!

Then today we stopped and visited the Blinds. Hopefully the next time Olivia and Brody will play a little nicer together!  Olivia sure did show her badness and sassiness while we were there and it continued the rest of the day while we visited papa and mimi. Glad tomorrow is back to daycare!  We unloaded more yard sale stuff and I asked myself again why I put myself through the hell that comes with yard sales!

Well that is about it for the weekend. It's time to watch me some True Blood and hopefully have some good dreams about Bill and Eric tonight!!!   Till next time.....

Excited but scared at the same time!

So, I have never done this before and I have NO idea how to organize a blog page but here goes nothing!
I am a gimini, so that might explain a lot about me. I am quiet and simple until you break through my shell and then whatch out because i will let loose when I feel comfortable around you!  I am a mother of two extremley beautiful children (Austin and Olivia). They have changed my life 100%. If it wasnt for them I would still be sitting at a different bar each night depending where the beer specials were! I am married to Kenny Schmidt for 6 years now and I can honestly tell you that married life it not easy! For those couples that go about their own business and do their seperate things, it might not seem as trying.  But my husband and I share everything which leads to quite a few arguments!  I always win if I stand my ground long enough!  I am very grateful for my close relationships with my family and the old and new friends I have. I never take friendships for granted.
I am looking forward to this blog and believe me ....things will get interesting!
