My Ideas, my thoughts, my everything
Do you have any quirks ?

Do you have any bad habits or little quirks? My little quirk is that I like to collect promotional pens. Every store that I go to that offers free pens with their logo on them I like to get. I can never keep too many pens in this house. For some reason they disappear and when I have to take a message I can never find them.

I like the promotional pens because if I ever need the stores number their are conviently on the pen. Quite truthfully I think that any item with a logo from a place is great advertisement because everyone loves free swag and if your logo is on it people will know about your place and get stuff from there.

If I ever have my own business I am going to set up a bunch of promotional pens and stationary to give out and promote my business that way. Until then though I will keep collecting my promotional pens whenever I go to a place that offers them. I cant help but love free swag, dont you ?





Power walking here I come

After getting back from going out with my friend I think I need to excercise on the treadmill a little bit. I always go out to eat with him when we go show properties. This eating out is making me gain more weight and that is no bueno. I would normally walk outside but its been in the triple digits and I am not going to dare set a foot outside and go walking if I dont have to.

I could always buy apidexin to lose weight but I am really trying to lose as much weight as I can on my own before I start taking pills to help. Dont get me wrong I have given lots of thought to taking diet pills to help me. I just figure that I need to try my hardest at losing weight naturally before I resort to diet pills. I am not against taking them though.

I really need to start though cause I say I will and then I dont. The holidays will be here and thats when I really really gain all the weight from all the good food that there is on the holidays.





The house is breaking down little by little

As if I didnt have things I needed to fix already in the house one of my kids decided to bust the lock on his door. It came with a cheap door lock and thats why I think the lock broke. I have always bought Kwikset locks and never had a problem. I am going to have to go to the store today and buy a kwikset lock. I also have to get spackling for the hole that my oldest put on the wall when she slammed open the bathroom door. I thought we had a wall protector behind the door but I guess not.

The dishwasher is broken and I am currently waiting for the repairman to get the part it needs. I really hope he hurries up with it because I will be busy next week and I dont know if anyone will be home to let him in. I really wish someone would have told me how much it takes to keep up with repairs in a house u own.





Busy busy is what I have been

I have been busy helping my sis -inlaw find a place so I have had hardly any time to write in here. I have been running around like a chicken with her head cut off trying to get everything done. I have finally gotten the school supplies I needed to get for all three kids and I got school clothes for the girls. I still need to get a few items for the boys though.

Its been crazy hot over here and I am melting. For the past week its been between 100-106 degrees outside so as you can imagine I have been indoors. The kids are excited to go to school and I am happy that they feel that way. I used to love school up until junior high.

I have to go and take a shower and get ready for the day but when I get a chance I will write more and tell you what has been going on.





I wish I could go

I have been feeling so stressed out with the car breaking down and the kitchen sink breaking down too. I feel like slowly this house is breaking down and the car is starting to break down little by little too and that puts more stress. I need to unwind. I need to go out and have a carefree day.

I would give anything to get my hands on some Taylor Swift tickets. I havent been to a concert in a good 5 years or so. I love going to concerts because I can let my stress go and just enjoy the music. I am one of those people that worries all the time and freaks out about everything and I do mean everything.

Maybe I also need to take some kind of stress relieve classes but for right now I would much rather go see Taylor Swift sing. I can always relate to her songs. I would recommend anyone to hear Taylor her sing. Seeing her sing live is one of my dreams.





pretty much laying low

I have been sick the past few days because one of my sons got the flu and went and past it to the rest of the family. I have been trying to rest as much as I can with six kids in the house so you can imagine that. The one good thing is that they have been pretty calm cuase they are getting over the flu bug themselves.

They have been helping me sort out coupons and we have been watching movies and pretty much laying low. I hope this bug goes away and we dont see it in our house for a very long time. As soon as we are all better I am going to plan to take the kidd to the happiest place on earth.

Th summer is almost over and the kids will be starting school soon. I will just have the 4 year old and the twins and I am going to look into getting my 4 year old into pre school. I have some school workbooks that I use to teach him his colors and numbers but I think he would benefit having a school setting so he knows what to expect when he goes to kindergarten.





I need to worry more about myself.

My face is breaking out but what do I expect if I have been eating nothing but junk food. How do I expect to treat acne with the way I am eating now. Even If I get proffesional help I am still going to be breaking out.

I need to detoxify my body of all the pollutants I have been putting in lately and then go about clearing my face up. I have completely let myself go and now its going to take me a while before I get back into my routine. I need to first start by eating better.

I have noticed that when I eat alot of junk food my face breaks out more so obviously my way of eating has a big effect on my breakouts. I also need to start washing my face more because this summer heat has me feeling more greasy. I really need a wh9ole makeover because I have totally let myself go these past couple of months. I need to get back into worrying about my self and not about my outside family. My hubby and my kids and myself should be my first priority. I cant always be fixing everybody else problems. My body and face is paying the price!!





And those pounds are back

Remember those six pounds I lost a while back? Well I gained those pounds right back. I got complacent and when family was visiting out went my diet and excercise and in went all the junk food you can imagine. I am back at square one looking up diet pill reviews to see what will curb my appetite and give me some energy to work out.

Let me tell you its a lot easier to keep a routine than to stop it and start all over again. I keep postponing the day to start working out and my clothes are feeling the bulge. I also need to eat alot better than what I am doing now. I am constantly on the run with the kids that I often times forgo eating. I need to get it in my head that I need to eat 3 or 4 square meals and not once a day.

I need to stop using the excuse of the heat which is in the triple digits might I add and just work out at home. Even if its just a few minutes a day and then work myself up to longer thats what I need to do. I need to stay healthy for my kids and myself. Those should be my biggest motivators.





What else can go wrong or break down ?

Oh great the ink in my printer went out again. I wish I could own one of those big xerox machines that I dont have to buy ink for all the time I would just have to get a stick of 108R00723(thats the inks code) to fill up the printer and I would be good for months and months.

I have to stop what I am doing and go to the store and buy some ink and then come back and print the 24 pages my husband needs to get his paperwork in for his loan. I am just not having a good day at all. I hope the rest of my day goes better because for the past couple of days everything seems to be falling apart and I feel like I am gonna fall apart soon too.

I need to remind myself to calm down and breathe because I feel like screaming and pulling my hair out.





What else now ?

The freaking car broke down. Ugghhh I am so upset. I hate when the car breaks down because its never anything cheap that needs fixing. It always costs a few hundred dollars to fix what is wrong with the car. I really think its the alternator that went bad with the car.

I cant get car parts like I can get wholesale electronics. I dont mind replacing my electronic stuff because I can always get good deals but what good deals can you get on car parts? If you dont buy good car parts you end up paying for it later when it breaks down again.

I am falling apart at the seams I tell ya. I wish I was rich and had money to just throw away then i wouldnt mind so much the car breaking down. I have to go find out what time the car service center closes.I also hope they dont charge me an arm and a leg for the repair.
