I WALK INTO THE KIDS CLUB
ME "I'M LOOKING FOR MASON LLOYD"
LADY - LOOKING AROUND.... THEN TURNS TO ME "OH HE'S IN THE
BATHROOM... I JUST CHECKED ON HIM A SECOND AGO... I THINK HE IS GOING POOP"....
ME - WALK INTO THE BATHROOM, SEE MASON, PANTS DOWN POOP ON BUTT, THROWING AWAY TOILET TISSUE "OH MY GOSH, WHAT HAPPENED?"
MASON "I DON'T KNOW, I WENT POOP MOMMY"
ME "WHY IS THERE POOP SMEARED ALL OVER THE TOILET BOWL?"I LEAD HIM TO THE SINK TO WASH HIS HANDS...
MASON "MOMMY THE KIDS DID IT."
ME - WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAR UP THE, MIND YOU, DRY POOP ON THE TOILET "WHAT KIDS DID IT?"
MASON - "THE GIRL DID IT"
ME - "WHAT GIRL, DO YOU MEAN THE LADY?"
MASON- "NO MOMMY, THE LITTLE GIRL"
ME - "WHAT LITTLE GIRL?"
MASON - "THE LITTLE GIRL."
HMMMMM... KIND OF CONFUSED BECAUSE THE POOP ON HIS BUTT WAS PRETTY DRY. HE HAD TO OF BEEN IN THERE FOR SOME TIME... AND WHY DIDNT HE HAVE POOP ALL OVER HIS HANDS WITH THE PAINTED ON POOP?
P.S. MASON IS NOT A FAN OF GETTING HIS HANDS DIRTY.
SOMETHINGS FISHY, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE LADY SAID SHE JUST CHECKED ON HIM. NO WAY DID SHE OVER LOOK THIS PICASSO OF POOP.

Wednesday the 9th
Family first - ALWAYS
I cannot stress this enough.
Pride sometimes needs to take a backseat - actually most of the time.
judge - This is am not.
sheltered and defended - how much is too much to not allow you to grow?
Some people think that the unknown is scary, but the unknown has 9 times out of ten, already played out in someone else's life. But that mentality of "I'm different" sometimes causes pain.
Responsibility is sometimes overlooked
Kids being kids, shouldn't have to be aware of worldly and adult issues. Puts too much stress on them, more than some may realize.
The Lovely Bones
- leaving your children
- never know how I would react, pray that I never ever have to.
- I could say how I would want to react
- very graphic literature, stomach turning to me.
- wanted worse for Mr. Harvey, But very symbolic.
Tiger Woods story reiterates the "don't judge a book by its cover" saying. Double lives from the public eye.
- We only know what is being to in the public.
- Don't get married if you know your going to purposefully put yourself in a situation where you will be tempted.
Book Club - who would join? and actually participate??
- quite a few friends who seem to have similar taste in reads.
Diary and Journal keepers
- everything jumbled and a mess in thoughts
- very visual and verbal person - not textual
- envy those who can translate thoughts into words
5 people fired at work in the last week.
Cherish those who are there instead of dwelling on those who are absent.
We are the way we are for a reason- most likely for an abundant of reasons
Would love you bump into those who have disappeared from my life, most of then seemingly intentional and ask why? Do I smother and overwhelm to make it unbearable to be around?
***Buble in concert April 8th!! Tickets on sale Friday!!! ooooooweee...

Ashes New Moon Review
Let me start off by saying this- New Moon was my least favorite book. With this said, I have to state why I was excited for the movie. The new directors background seemed to fit PERFECT for what this series needed. Chris Weitz lived up to my expectation (could have done with out the swirly twirly shots, makes me feel car sick). But He was a amazing addition to the franchise.
and don't worry- No spoilers here
First off- The movie was 10 trillion times better than twilight. I'm glad the actors are starting to age with the movie, and growing into the characters. Sorry friends, I have to state that I still, sadly enough, think they could have casted Bella better. Kristen Stewart just doesn't do it for me. I have to admit that he awkwardness is perfect for Bells, but the hair swiping and lip licking just is... is. Taylor did great, and is probably one of the best actors in the movie so far. You just feel his emotion and need to have Bella want him. ***note*** I feel all heeby geeby inside with I see his hard body... 17... I think I need to shower.... maybe if he was a few years older, I would feel so dirty. Rob, the way his voice is so lyrical, as the book describes, just makes you want to swoon.... and so will the last uttered words of the movie.
Second- This was my least favorite because of Bella's heartbreak and how long Stephanie took to portray it. I have been through devastation like this when I was all of 15. But when your young and you are infatuated with one person, its heartbreaking. That following summer, I tried to engulf myself in this one particular person, and ending up finding peace in talk shows and sugar free popsicles. For me life is too short to waste your time. You have to find peace in yourself before you can move forward with someone else. They DON'T complete you. You need to be complete all on your own. With my counseling session out of the way, and Eclipse on the brink, I will continue my struggle with Bella's wallowing, especially when it takes a whole book for her to get over the age issue. Edward is the real reason the keeps my passion for this series. Unconditional, non-sexual (strength for waiting), adoration he has for her.
Third- It was by the book, and to the T. This is how all movie based on books should be. They take the story and bring it to the screen. It was done beautifully. You will hear critics say things like: "the wolf packs shirts are ALWAYS missing" "Edward is awkward and those abs aren't real" "the movie was slow" "The movie desperately misses Catherine Hardwick" {impossible to me} "they attacked her over a paper cut and not from the gush of blood in twilight" etc... all of these are most likely from non readers... if not I apologize for categorizing you. And If you didn't read the book and liked it, I'd like to hear your thoughts, because once you have their future in their mind, there is no non bias. Melissa Rosenburg did a very good job making Jacob likable {and the no shirt did hurt either} because I loathed his teenage boy antics in the book.
If you have anything to add, I would LOVE to hear it! We can discuss!

This so called life...
Is it a sign?? When you type out your thoughts and then its erased at the drop of a hat? It seems all too often that this happens. Does it mean that those thoughts are not meant for others or is does it mean that I need to show perseverance. Instead of the paragraphs that I HAD. I will now use bullets...
- moving in with mom. A blessing in disguise.
- Starting over. Together.
- Mason - growing imagination
- Benjamin - a mobile light of sunshine.
- possible monetary and friendly job changes.
- Sterling and I = Edward and Bella in my eyes.
- ^He makes me feel like Bella feels when Edward gives into Bella
- Family = undying love that never falters (some need to learn this)
- New Moon (see previous bullet) If Sterling understood, he'd stop poking fun.
- craftiness: bracelets to cyber scrapbooking = therapy for soul
- Small doses of larger issues.
- Musical - Adele, Muse, Michael Buble, and soon to be Christmas music.
- Halloween: Mason = Buzz Lightyear and Benjamin = Woody. Mommy = ?
- My boys, all three. True blessings.
I would elaborate, but maybe it will just get deleted again. So I can expand the thought, if questioned. If not, it is what it is. These smiles, make a minimal defeat, meaningless.

1000 red loft balloons
At work I have comprised several short posts that I have wanted to continue at home and share. After going to the gym and spending the little time I have with my boys, you can imagine the dishaste I feel for the computer, after bring on it literally 8 hours, 5 days a week.
At some point I will use those "beginnings" and elaborate, but at this very second I cannot hold this particular subject in. To warn you, it may get you thinking.
I consider myself a believer. I believe in God and the Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit as one). I often find times where when I feel like there is nothing left to do but wait, I remind myself that in due time, the reason for certain happenings come to the surface.
I am currently reading "The Shack" and if any of you have read it, you will probably understand most of my banterings in this particular post. If you have not, you should find a copy and thumb through it. I can honestly admit that there have been several instances where I want to stop what I am doing and share what this book brings to the table. I often find myself thinking "I completely agree... I knew that my relationship is the most important"
From what I have read in this book so far, it has been totally relevent to a current issue that is plagueing my sleep and free time. The question is... Who are you to decide what is right and wrong? If a path for you served to be the right one, but another is heading down your road, yet you feel it to be wrong for them? Deep inside you see this person's cituation is not like yours, although they may wish it to be as fulfilling as yours has proven to be. You see faulty in their thinking. Who am I to tell them they are making a mistake? As a parent, is there where we go wrong? Telling our children "you are making the biggest mistake of your life" or do we allow them to go down this road of hardship because this is what they chose?
Is this not what God gave us, when he granted us free will? When we are about to do something that is not in favor of us, yet we still feel we need to see the outcome? With all the pain and suffering in the world, does this give you humility or greed? You feel sorry for those who don't have all the physical things? Do you latch onto all the things you have "worked" for? Because in the end, nothing is truly and rightfully yours. Thats if you believe this. When life is made easier for you than most, why do some so easily let go of the important things in life. But then again, who am I to judge whats important and whats not? I am not the judge.
Often, I find myself, thinking about my decisions, and how I come across the right one. I find comfort in knowing that I do not compromise what I feel is right for me, and now my family. This is only because its for the greater good. Most risks that are taken, are truly careless, because if its not for the better of YOUR life and YOUR future, who is truly happy then?
I feel like there is one particular quality that I posessed in my teenage years, that most girls don't reach until later, and some others much later, in life. Its the confidence in myself. I dont NEED anyone to be happy. Thats not to say that I don't want my husband or my boys around. If they were gone, I'd be devistated. But it took me not NEEDING someone to love me to be truly and whole-y loved. If your not whole as a person, how can someone love you. You shouldn't feel the need to be loved by someone else to be complete.
When it all comes down to it. He loves you. Yes, God. Allah, Yesuah, etc... He has several names, but that higher power is bigger than you. Once you find that you are truly loved, and you should love yourself. You can truly be at peace.
::disclaimer:: what I have just said, does not mean there wont be hard times, because there will be many and plenty. But the love will get you through. 100% of the time.

f-friday
Its been awhile, again, since I have posted and I am not really sure where I want to start. I'm sitting outside of my cafeteria at work and the wind is blowing like its trying to get away from something, and the air smells of moisture and dirt, aka arizona rain.
First thing I can really think of to update is that Mason is fully potty trained now! It took about two weeks in undies and a couple accidents. He also is known as the streaker at the gym day care. In the middle of the "trial" period, he requested to go to the bathroom... Went potty.... Then ran out of the bathroom.. Completely bottomless yelling "candy candy candy" (at the time we would give him a fruit snack as a treat for going potty)
Secondly- my moms house is complete and she has moved in. Its bitter sweet to have her not part of our everyday. We certainly do miss her extra hand, and car ;) oh and mostly her company.
Everyday I tell myself to go home to read a chapter of new moon again but I'm pretty involved with this book called "my sisters keeper". If it sounds familiar, it has been made into a movie, and comes out in a couple weeks.
I'm typing on my phone now since I took the job doing data entry. Leaving a computer is truly leaving work. If I touch the computer at home, its most likely to put or remove songs on my mp3 player, for work, so I don't lose my mind doing the mundane. I have had a breakdown about the current situation, but am starting to grasp my bearings. I really do feel like I am missing out on benji's baby time. He is already 5 months old! I can't even fathom where the time went. It is the middle of june people!
I have started really contecting with aquiantence, and really enjoy he thoughts and outlook. I have never really had a friend (other than family) that has been really true. Maybe once, but I feel like this friendship has a more fulfilling quality to it.I was an air force brat and so I don't really know what its like to have that friend you have known all your life. But I definitely like my new and current ones!
I am also really starting to discover my deep true feelings about trust and love and friendship. Long story short, I am not fond of my sisters choice of boy. She says she is in love and he is the one and yada yada. My marriage started from highschool. We started dating junior year. Difference between my sister and myself is that I have had my heart shattered before. During the healing process from that break up, I really found out what kind of person I wanted to be. I dibble and dabbled in other "lifestyles" and found where I was most comfortable and adequit for my goals. Before I started dating sterling, I was newly confident in myself and my life. I new where I wanted to be and what I was looking for. I let love find me. And boy am I lucky! My sister needs that she needs to love herself before she can truly love and be loved by someone else.
On another note, my stepmom has completed all of her treatments and does not have to see her oncologists for another 3 months. We hope this devil will stay clear of her body. With the drama unfolding with my sister, I feel like her and I have bonded on some levels. I never really understood some of the things that she would say or do. but now I feel like I have opened a new chapter and friendship with her that I may have otherwise dismissed because of misuderstandings. I truly thank God for that.
I have been working really hard to take my baby weight off and am finally starting to see and feel results! Hallelujah! I have also been taking a yoga class thursday nights for the past 3 weeks and I feel like it helping me stay on the right track, its amazing how can work up a sweat without cardio.
My friday today, started off with a bang... I forgot my lunch and my mp3 player (yes, still plugged into the computer from the night before) and when I get to work I realize that I have the jeep keys, which go to our only vehicle, and sterling couldn't get to work. I also have this ritual called coffee friday, and mcds was only accepting cash (how lame) - I then go to the "starbucks" at my work cafeteria and order a coffee there (4 dollars please) and it was the most vial thing ever consumed. So its 0 for 2 at the "starbucks" and I have now come to conclusion that its just the name on the menu and not the actual product. Out 4 dollars.
Tonight the hubster and I are going on a date for fathers day, and I know that special time spent with him will make any poop filled day-not as poopy :)
Have a good one and remember to tell you fathesr thank you for killing you when you were teenage girls with hormones raging and making stupid decisions.
K.thx.bye
