myramblingthoughtsMy Ideas, my thoughts, my everything

I gave in to my sis in law’s nagging about getting anti wrinkle creams. I went ahead and used some of the cremes she bought and guess what I dont feel that it has made any difference on my face. I dont have any wrinkles so that might be why.

My sis in law says she does feel her face tighter and that the wrinkle creams have worked for her. I guess everyones face is different and what works fro her doesnt work for me. Maybe when I get some wrinkles I will feel different. I did love the foot creams she got. I dont know why but my feet have been bothering me alot lately. I might need to go get them checked out if they keep bothering me.

I have thought many times to take a recent picture of me and upload it to this blog to remind me that I need to lose the weight I have gained. I dont know what else to do. I have given thoughts to getting a gastric bypass or getting the lap band. I have also thought about using weight loss dietary supplements. I just need something to help me lose weight.

I can lose a few pounds but never more than 10 pounds. I dont want to starve myself either. I have tried to eat good and have cut out soda but I still dont lsoe any weight. I have thought of getting a gym membership because I know that will make me go and workout.

I stopped walking and I need to start it back up. My right foot has been giving me problems so I have used that as an excuse for not walking. I need to stop looking for excuses. I need to make a change.

I am feeling soooo sleepy. The kids have been sick so they are really moody. I haven’t been sleeping good so I have bags under my eyes. My sis in law keeps telling me its because we are not young anymore that we are having all kinds of issues. I caught her looking at anti aging product reviews and I told her doesnt she think she is too young to be looking up stuff like that but she told me we are not in our 20′s anymore we are in our 30′s and that is way closer to 40.

I guess in a way she is right even though I dont want to admit it. I certainly dont feel young. I have all kinds of aches and pains and I have found a gray hair or two. I guess Jay Z lied and we are not forever young…..

My high school friend got engaged last night. I am so happy for her and her man. I cannot believe that it’s been over 7 years since I got married to my hubby. I remember the paper gifts for first anniversary that his parents gave us. I also remember them telling us that the years would fly by and they sure have.

I want to have a big wedding. I am going to try and see if for our 10 year anniversary we can have a vow renewal and have the wedding of my dreams. We had a justice of the peace wedding but I want to have family and friends at my wedding and have the first dance and all the works.

I think I am going to talk to my hubby about it and if we plan on having that wedding then I better start saving my money now.

I often stop and think where did the years go? I cant believe that my twins the ones who I was on bedrest for majority of the time I was pregnant with are about to walk. Although they are a little late on the walking they are trying. They can already say a few words and I can most definitely see their personalities.

It makes me sad to know that they are my last babies.I have more than enough kids but knowing that they are the absolute last babies in the house makes me a little bit nostalgic. They are growing up so quick. I still have some baby clothes that they never got to wear.

I need to go and take some pictures of them. I really need to go and get some family pictures done because we havent taken any for some years now. I think I am going to schedule an appointment.

In this nice cool day I am just relaxing and enjoying the weather. We have had nothing but hot weather and I am talking about 105-106 degree weather. Today its in the low 80′s and I am loving it. One of the best investments I made was to buy a Linksys router because I am able to be on my laptop in my yard and on my hammock. 

Ever since we bought this house I kept bugging the hubby about getting me a hammock. The first thing I did when I saw the  hammock that I wanted on sale was buy it. I had a hard time lugging it home but you best believe I had a fun time putting it up and getting my butt into it.

One of my best pastimes is getting on the computer and now that I can be on my hammock and enjoying being on the internet while outside well there is nothing more I can ask for.

Its funny the ads people put out when they are trying to rent their place out. I am currently helping my sister-in-law find a house to rent and some of the ads I have seen have left me in a chuckle. One ad said 3 bedroom house with two bathrooms and they have toilets. Umm dont all bathroom rooms have toilets? Has anyone ever been to a bathroom that doesnt? Another ad I saw mentioned that they had installed led headlamps Which I thought was a good thing if the people looking to rent out place are very conscious about lighting.

I still cant believe how high the rental prices are though. I am so glad we own our own house and our mortgage is less than what these renters are looking for. A year ago I was happy being a renter but now that we own our own place I see the blessing in that. I am thankful that my hubby was set on buying a house and didnt let me talk him out of buying the house.

I get soo happy when my friends join twitter and facebook. I dont  know what it is, but I feel like I can communicate with them better online than I can calling them. I have been on twitter and facebook when they first started and seeing them take off and be so popular amazes me.

I have been sitting here messaging friends before I have to pick up the kids and I have to start dinner. It is hot and muggy outside and I really dont feel like cooking. I wonder if the hubby will settle for some  take-out tonight. I am awaiting his call to see if I have to pick up the kids or if he is going to get them after work.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that I have been running the AC nonstop and I dont want to look at my electric bill next month cause I am sure it is going to be through the roof. I need to find a job soon to help out with the bills. I dont even want to think about how we will pay for things once he has his student loan coming in.

My kids started school this week and I have noticed that alot of the kids school work is assigned online. That would be a good thing but not so good for me. I am looking at desktop computer reviews because the desktop computer we had has gone completely dead.

You would think it would be easy to find a good desktop computer but its not. I have to have all kinds of software for my teenager. The hubby needs to have windows office software. I personally like to have photoshop software on mine.

I hope I can find what I am looking for soon. I want a nice flat screen computer monitor to go with the desktop too. I have had nothing but bulky computer monitor’s and its time I joined the new age and have a flat screen. I have always wanted a Apple IMAC but that is just beyond my limit right now.

Everytime I get sick I thank the lord that I have good health care coverage. I sit and think about those people that dont have coverage and I think about the elderly that need medicare supplement plans. I dont ever want to be old and not have good health care coverage.

It’s sad that we live in a world where not everyone has health coverage. If I ever had the power to change things the first thing I would change would be medical coverage for everyone no matter if they had a job or not. Sometimes I think that the world isnt as good as its supposed to be and I cant wait for there to be change for the better not the worse.

I know I put too much thought into everything but that is something thats on my mind.
