LONG one....

WOW, what a LONG week it has been! Monday was Ashlyn's 1st day of kindergarden and us getting up early again (Eli has been getting up earlier and earlier everyday) She loved her school and is making friends.... I didn't cry (she was in Pre K last year) but saw a few moms that did. On Wednesday I had to drive my mom to the airport which was 2 hours there and 2 hours back (I did cry then! LOL) then off to work for 6 hours. Thursday I had to drive an hour and a half to work, work all day and then another hour and a half back home. Friday I just had to work from 10 to 8:30 and so loving the day off I have!

Mom came, Mom left...

My mom came to visit for a week and see Ashlyn off to her 1st day of school. It went by way too fast. We had a great visit and it made me so sad to see her have to go home! While she was here we got to do some shopping (her favorite pass time) got had our toes done and did some great visiting! I am really gonna miss her!

6 Years and still going!

Who would have thought....
Saturday Dustin and I celebrated out 6th wedding anniversary... Although we didn't do much (because I had to work) we did go out to diner just us! When the last time that happened was awhile ago! He got us a 2 foot sign that has our names and our wedding date on it. It's really pretty and super thoughtful. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ME!!!!

Oh the joys....

A minute to breath! I have had 1 day off and my next day off will be Thursday (after working 9 days straight) Hurry up and get here already! I feel like I've been using this more as a vent session then a what's going on with me blog... I'm sorry! I just kinda feel like I'm at a turning point and am not sure where to go from here! I'm not happy at all, and not sure what will make me that way.... I'm working because my husband is lazy and won't so it leaves with NO time with my kids which breaks my heart and when I do come home I'm so frusterated thaat the house is a mess and he has do nothing.... we fight like cats and dogs.... I hate it, but don't know what to do. Again, I'm sorry to be b!tching about my husband but since we've moved here I don't really have any friends....

Warning TMI...

Ok, so this may be WAY to personal but what the hay! Let me start by saying I have always had a weird and heavy flow. When I had Ashlyn I nursed her for a year and the day before her first birthday I got AF (aunt flow) back. After I had Eli and still nursing I got AF back just after his first birthday and boy is it bad!!! I never leaked so much in my life, even when I was just learning how to deal with it. I talked to a girlfriend of mine who is a super crunchy momma who is all about momma cloth (cloth pads), going green and is the one who got me into cloth diapering trying momma cloth. I had looked and read about how it can lighten and shorten your flow. I'm in! Sign me up! Even the thought of cleaning them out and just how yucky it might be I still wanted to try it. SO I did! I've tried it for about 2 maybe 3 cycles and leaked, and had nothign but messes! Another friend of mine said something about the Diva cup, and the thought of fishing it out totally grossed me out! She said that I needed to at least give it a try. SO I did! I started 2 days ago and the first day was light and hurt to put it in and take it out, yesterday was better. I think I really like this thing, even though I'm still not liking the fishing it out part but I can get over that if it means that I'm not leaking all over the place! I've found a site that is just for and about the diva cup, I now see why everyone is in love with this! I know it's not a topic that you just bring up with anyone or share with everyone but I wanted to be open minded and share with yall! What do yall use for your "lady time"?

Neglected...

It's been a crazy week or so. I had to go to Dallas to get my manager training done and brought my family... not sure I'll ever do that one again! LOL They came because Eli is still breastfeeding and I didn't want to just wean him by leaving. Anyhow, I'm back for now... might be a little distracted by working 6 days a week for the next 3 weeks until my mom gets here. It will be well worth it! I hope!
