Just Think Positive!

(Posted 3hrs after writing!)

We’re all nice and fed and the kiddos are here in the living room sprawled either on the sofa, or on a pile of blankets and watching Tom and Jerry. It’s so NICE when they love each other and are quiet :P.

So it’s quite apparent that the whole “paper journal” thing isn’t working out. Well, it does sometimes, like when I’m incredibly frustrated/pissed off and I don’t feel like actually talking to anyone, heh. And although this entry *should* go in that journal…typing is just so much faster than writing!

I’m so glad I have the kids this weekend. It’s not actually my weekend, but I asked Mario to exchange since I have an event next Friday and Saturday (which was originally my weekend). (Gosh. I don’t know how I’m supposed to stay awake till after midnight both days during the event if I can’t even stay up past 8pm!!) If I didn’t have them this weekend, I’d be beside myself with boredom. I *hate* not having them :(.

If the kids weren’t here and keeping me busy I’d have way too much time to think about things. This weekend and possibly the next week are going to be quite monumental concerning my personal life. This next week determines everything (no, I’m not talking about Valentine’s Day LOL). I’m incredibly terrified that it’s going to be a repeat of November (oh, how I hate remembering that month >_< ) but I've been assured that that most definitely won't happen. I pray to GOD that it's true. I couldn't go through that again. I refuse to. (I jinxed it. Shortly after typing that part the kids all started fighting/screaming...in other words, all hell broke loose! They're all in bed and quiet again, thank goodness LOL!) It was an overall great day with the kiddos. We ate at their favorite, Taco Bell, Mom's treat, for lunch. We ran errands and then just chilled out the rest of the afternoon. I picked up my babe from work and dropped him off and that was really it. I really don't mind just NOT going anywhere. I just wanna be lazy at home, heh. I uploaded a few pics to Facebook and TRIED to come up with a concept for a new layout but it just wasn't happening. I'm surprised I still know how to get into my control panel LOL. Valentine's Day is Monday. I was told not to do anything, not to buy anything. Absolutely nothing. Which is weird to me, because it was always up to me what was going to happen in the past. And gifts were usually picked by his MOM. I'm excited for this Valentine's Day :). I hope he doesn't go too much out of his way. And even if we have a little date night like we did this past Wednesday, I'd be more than happy :). It was such a great day. Lunch at Subway. Starbucks and flatbread sandwiches from Target before we went to the movies to watch "The Dilemma". It was such a funny movie. And the night was completely drama-free! Doesn't happen often! We've had a lot of great days but Wednesday was really one of my favorite days in the past 6 months :). Ahhh...11:11 (make a wish!) and Emily's finally asleep. Gotta be up early to take the boys to CFF. I hope the weather's good tomorrow. I've been meaning to take them to the park. Let's hope the next time I update it's with good news :).

:'(

I’d love to go one day, JUST ONE FUCKING DAY, without bawling my fucking eyes out for some reason or another. Is that too much to ask?!!

Princess Alaethia is 4!!

My gorgeous girl is 4-years-old today :’). I can’t believe it: FOUR!! She starts pre-k next year. I still remember taking her everywhere with me when she was tiny. She was my little buddy *sniff*.

Had a little party for her yesterday at Peter Piper, which she calls Chuck-e-Cheese lol. Just my closest people :). Our brood had a blast together; their first time since Halloween! It was wonderful watching them play together :’).

Although I didn’t make Aly’s My Little Pony cake exactly as she wanted (and they changed them to some anime-looking ponies), I made her one anyway and everyone loved it!

I just recently succeeded in weaning her from warm milk (yes, BARELY) but her dad and I finally got on the same page and it’s working. Next is no more sippy cups and– I’m apologizing in advance in case you ever read this, Aly–the wiping of her own bootie, heh. Forgot to tell her dad about that one…

Anyway, things are as good as they can be right now. As for work, I’m trying to get all entries and payments for the food festival. This is my very own event, not something I inherited, so I hope it’s successful. It’s in 2 Thursdays…eek!!

Trying to get back into some kind of exercise routine. We started walking last weeek and got busy towards the end of the week so we didn’t continue. Argh lol.

Hmmm…wonder how much longer I have to wait here…gonna read my book on my Nook app. Picking up the kiddos later and celebrate Aly’s birthday, maybe with some ice cream? I’ll get something low-cal. Maybe.
