Go Girl!

The other night Im relaxing after a chaotic day with the kids. All the sudden I hear what sounds like breaking glass! I get a lil scared and look out my sliding glass door cuz it sounds like its in my backyard! Well, I see nothin. I decide to go look out my window upstairs, it looks straight into my neighbors backyard. WOW! Was my reaction. I see clothes and various items scattered all over the lawn! Then I see her (my neighbor) chucking dishes one by one out her door!! Then she goes back inside and gets mirrors, decorative vases, even a freakin computer!! Her dude must be in some serious trouble!! So in the morning I decided to check out the damage in the daylight! This was it-I was trying to be sneaky so its not a very good shot but u get the idea! She has since added a mattress and bedframe to the creation! HAHA-I mean if I were him I'd stay way away!

I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs...

Ok....So, many of you know Mike has been engaged for almost a year. He never told me about the engagement...I found out through a mutual friend. I asked him about it and what is he gonna say except "yes I'm engaged". I explained to him that maybe he should share these things with me since it would be affecting our boys lives. He disagreed and still doesn't understand why he needs to tell me anything! (This just gives you an idea of what an idiot the guy is but that's a whole other blog for another day! :) Well the past few months we have been getting along so I have asked about his upcoming wedding and he kept saying they haven't set a date...they have no money...they are waiting to be sealed in the temple...blah blah blah. Then a couple weeks ago he shows up to get the kids and I notice he is wearing a freakin wedding ring! What the? I mean was he going to hide it from me forever? I don't understand the way this man thinks, which is probably one of the many reasons our marriage ended in divorce! So, once again I did the asking instead of him doing the telling! I sure hope he is a better husband and father to his, in Mike's famous words, "new family"! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Wagner! Man, I need to change my last name quick!

One of those days....

Let me preface this post by stating how much I love my kids and even as much as I complain I can't imagine how boring my life would be without them!

Most days I am totally ok with the cards I have been dealt. More specifically, I'm ok with Kyle and the struggles and triumphs that we go through together. Because thats all I know. He has always been...Kyle. Well, I am only human and there are days that I think to myself...why me? (I know, what a selfish thing to say) What if he was typical? What would he be like? How much easier would my life be? I try and put things in perspective and think how truely lucky I am that I was entrusted with Kyle, but it certainly doesn't make it any easier on those days.
