Resting Up

I have been incredibly sick since I last posted. I don't know what this bug is but I want it to go away. I haven't been able to eat much either....I think I've lost weight, not complaining about the weight loss mind you, I need it! The lack of food is making it difficult for me to keep up with my kids. I just want to spend all day in bed hiding from the world. I think I am ready to take myself to the walk-in clinic tonight because I do not want to miss trick or treat with my kids. My little ghouls have the cutest costumes. One will be Super Girl and the other will be a monkey. They have tried them on already and they are too freakin' cute! I will post pics after, maybe even with loot included :)

I shot the most hilarious video of my kids the other day too. The bigger one was throwing a ball at the baby sitting in her walker.(I'm a sadist, I know!) The baby was laughing hysterically, especially if the ball hit her in the head?!?! My kids are totally screwed up, and I love every minute of it. I'll have to add that video when I master this blog business. Anyone out there have any advice on the matter? I think I have to upload it somewhere and then add the code to the blog, so I guess I need a good video hosting site. YouTube is out because of ISP issues.

In Hiding

No, I really wasn't in hiding. I have been reading a commenting and all that jazz but the borrowed computer I was using broke back in August. Well I finally got mine fixed, maybe three weeks ago, but I have been super busy. My two little munchkins keep me hopping, and my husband and big kids are back to school. And I have been working some as well. I am a substitute teacher for the time being and I have fun doing it, but the last few weeks it has kept me busy. I am also quite cranky because my once (almost) clean house has fallen into a constant state of chaos. I went away for a weekend to an awesome ladies retreat after subbing every day that week and came home to a messier house than I left. As my baby's favorite song says "Obladi, Oblada, life goes on." (Yes we are Beatles fans in my house.) It will get better, and I will get motivated to fix it. I have been working on picking clothes out of my closet that I don't wear. I have even been trying to put everything on to see how things look/fit. I successfully sold some at a garage sale and taken the rest to Goodwill. Sometimes I wish I could bring them some things in on trade and get new stuff, I wouldn't even mind unequal trades, like bring in a bag of stuff and pick out one thing, but then how would they make any money right?

I have also been working for my parents at the family business lately for extra money. I do anything they let me do. Today consisted of putting the labels on 45 cases of glass bottles. Tomorrow I have bookwork, the bonus, I actually get paid. Last week I covered the cost of my daycare from the days I worked at the school. So I basically got to pocket and pay bills my whole paycheck, as they say in the gaming community, "WOOT, WOOT!"

I guess that is all for now. I will try for tomorrow to put together a post of the step daughters Senior Pictures. Her mom took them and I get to edit them. She doesn't appreciate my work, but I'm sure whatever readers I can scrounge up will like them.
