Keeping up with life

So yes it has been so long since I have written a blog but wow I have been so busy it is crazy.  I have so much on my plate right now but like I have said before I kinda like it.  i am so used to not having friends and not doing anything outside of the house that the more stuff I have to do the better.  I get bored really easy and then It makes me depressed cause I have no one that is close to me that I can just say hey lets talk.

 Like for instance my husband is gonna get a ass kicking if he doesn't start living up to his promise. Before we moved here I was a full time just stay at home mom.  I had no job  and all I did was play with my kids and clean and cook and My hubby didn't have to do anything.  I way I say it was he worked so it was only far that I took care of the house and kids.  I liked it, i didn't mind doing it.  Then he desired he has had enough of Calgary and off to Victoria we go.  Moving yet again.  I told him no the last time we were in Victoria we were buying diapers with pop bottle money and I was not going to allow my children to live like that again.  He promised me that it would be different, and it has been for sure.  He said you can start a Day home and still be home with the kids and he would take on 50% of the life responsibility's.

 So on Sundays i take Faith to gymnastics, I do the grocery shopping for the week.  I clean the house for the start of the week.  I make sure there are crafts and stuff for the day care kids, make lunch for Austin.  Monday Austin has beavers, Tuesday Gymnastics for Austin Wednesday I usually have a PAC Meeting I clean the house daily for Daycare.  I take car of 5 kids just so we all know.  I cook the dinners I make the lunches, I help with the home work.  I take the kids to parks and Play groups and birthday party's I started an Epicure business to make extra money and I am in the middle of trying to do consignment sale to make extra money with stuff that is just sitting in boxes.  I made a cook book this year with Austin's school.

 So the reason for this rant is because I have asked and asked for help.  and nope nothing.  I asked him last week to please call Kia about the leak in the car.  I dont know the first thing about cars so when they ask questions like where is the leaking coming from all I can say to the guy is the bottom of the car.  One freaken thing I ask him to do and he says to me yesterday.  Well why cant you do it.  You think I have anytime to do that.  or Marlena why dont you work out more, you are always saying that you are so out of shape why dont you go for a run on the tread mill or take a swimming class.  (I thought swimming class was a great Idea, just gotta figure out when I can do it).

So anyways needless to say he is mad at me for being so cranky and he doesn't know why I am being so cranky.  and I am pissed that he doesn't know why I am mad.  It pisses me off more that he thinks that my day is so much easier and I should find time to do everything.  I take care of all the money and the schedule, he doesn't even know when my birthday is most days.  So that is my rant.  OMG things need to change or I will loss it.  I think I wanna pretend to have a nervous breakdown just so I can go stay in a hospital and relax and have people feed me hahahaha.  On another note, does anybody know if this blogging site has an ap for the Iphone.  I would like to read blogs and write my blogs on my Iphone.

CHRISTMAS

So I got my starter kit for my new Business.  It was just like Christmas.  Now i need to start reading and cooking.  Yesterday for dinner I decided to just wipe something on the fly with my new Tandoori spice.  I roasted Chicken Legs in the oven with Salt and Pepper.  Opened a can of mushroom soup added some water and some tandoori spice (i may of added to much, but it was still good) I boiled some pasta and put it in my sauce and added some frozen peas.  I put the cooked chicken in the sauce as well. Threw it in the oven and it was yummo.  I am just so excited to cook again which is good.  I used to love to cook and now with the Day care I have lost my passion.  I think it has return and oh how i have missed it.  I just have to figure out my time management with the daycare and having dinner ready.  I need to get out though, busy busy all the time, i am neglecting my friends.

Epicure

So I did it.  I have been think about starting a home business but i just couldn't decide what i wanted to sell.  I have decided to go with Epicure.  It is a great Product and i am so excited to start this business.  Deep down I am kinda scared of not succeeding.  And the party and speaking with people is gonna be my challenge i think.   Ido have lots of info and videos to help me out and my sister in law sells it, so i have lots of support.

1.  Do you and your spouse go to bed at the same time?

Not most nights.  I stay up late.  

2.  A question for the ladies...what kind of facial hair do you like on your man?

Goatee

3.  What's the worst vacation you've ever taken?

A trip to Kitimat with Roy's bothers family.  It was 1/2 work and 1/2 pleasure.  Turned out to be work for Roy and pleasure for his brother.  Big fight blah blah, never again.  

4.  What's the first-ever blog you followed?

Mom of the wild things 

5.  Do you enjoy amusement parks?

Yes and no.  If it was cheaper I might enjoy them more

Friday 5 but late hehe

1.  Tube socks, calf socks, crew, ankle, none?

I like ankle socks I guess

2.  Was your child (children's) name a mutual decision or was it a debate? 

I named Austin.  I have always loved that name and knew one Day I would name my son Austin.  I came up with the middle name as well after my Husbands Step Father.  Roy at that time could care less what I named him.  Roy named Faith but there was Debate.  I love the name Faith but it wasn't my favorite name.  Roy named her after George Micheal song and I personally wanted something else.  Not sure which one I wanted but it was a toss up between Teresa and Payton for me.  In the end Roy said you named Austin, I name the girl.  I got to pick the middle name so in the end we came up with Faith Maria Clotilde.  

3.  What is your favorite type of weather?

SUNSHINE 

4.  If left to your own devices, what time would you wake up every day?

5.  Have you bought your cemetery plots yet?  

No, i dont wanna think about that yet.  

It's coming to an end :)

So I had my second to last meeting at Austin's current school.  Basically last meeting.  I am sad to leave such a great group of people.  I just hope the New school brings me new friendships.  I really am hoping that the new school isn't as clicky as the current school.  It is hard to relate to people with big houses with yearly trips to Mexico and Disney land and fancy clothes,  thats just not me and I am glad that's not me.  Next week I go to a meeting at the new school and I am so excited.  I dont do much in my life.  I need to take a class or something cause going to a PAC meeting gets me excited lol.  I actually enjoy the planning part of the PAC and know what is going on in my child's life so it's exciting to me.    So that really all going in in my simple life.  I do need to do some shopping for new clothes.  All my clothes are pretty tight because of the weight gain so i would like to own a pair of pants that doesn't involve my hubby helping me into them.  I may have to buy a new outfit for my Nephews confirmation as well :)  Any excuse to buy an outfit, god knows I own enough second hand clothing so i deserve something new.

Great Weekend

What a wonderful weekend and we really didn't do anything out of the ordinary.  We went consignment shopping at the big sale in a gym.  I knew what I was needing for the kids so it was a fast in and out which is great for my hubby and the kids.  We then went to Beavers Bottle Drive.  It was so nice out not to sunny but not raining.  We really enjoyed the walking around and I got a work out.  We recently bought a cheap charcoal barbaque.  Roy remembers being a child and the flavor that charcoal brought to his food was amazing so we made burgers on there, my mother came over for dinner it was great.   Sunday I slept in, oh how I love to sleep in :)  Faith went to gymnastics with Roy while Austin and I stayed home and worked on some puzzles.  i then worked on my project.  I find with my OCD I have to be doing a project it helps with my nerves.  Right now I am working on selling stuff on Used Victoria and consignment sales so lets just say my room is a mess.  I call it organized chaos.  My hubby is doing so well with dealing with my current project, which I love him for.  He is finally starting to understand my OCD and it is a great help that he is supportive.  So far I have made $13 buck.  woo hoo for me.  I planned on buying new bedding for the kids beds with the money but Walmart had a sale yesterday so I went ahead and bought them the bedding and then the money I make can go on the Visa.  Ok so I have discovered that making a bunk bed is hard work and it took me hours to make the needs.  I really need to get over my having to be perfectionist because wow what a work out.  My arms were rubber when I was done. MY legs were hurting from crouching down.  It looks great though.

Faith's bedding above and Austin's bedding below 

I let them pick out there bedding.  All i said was it had to be a pattern that lasted a long time.  No Justin Beiber or transformers type bedding cause you will grow out of it.  

I thought they did really well.   

One thing I learned this weekend.  Is I love my Children more and more each day and I wouldn't change my
life at all.
