All Growed up?

     At what point do you have to accept that you are a grown up? When you turn 18? When you have a baby or 3? Is it the house with a mortgage? A dog? A spouse? When you spend the majority of your day cleaning up, cooking and wiping bums? When you leave the house every day at stupid o'clock to go to work? I do all of these, except getting up at stupid o'clock to leave for work because I get up at stupid o'clock to wipe bums and to feed a baby - which I think is better , minus not getting paid to do it.

     I don't feel like a grown up.  I still wonder how I got here.  How am I 28? Where did the last 10 years go? Oh I know...I was in such a rush to grow up and now I am supposedly there and I don't feel like a grown up and I dont't really want to be one anyway (I wouldn't trade what I have for the world but one last day to live carefree and then I could accept it...well maybe). I mean I feel responsible, motherly and all that lovely stuff just not as old as I am (Shut up, I know its all a matter of opinion about age so let me have my moment to complain...k...thanks).  I don't feel old on the inside and then I walk past a mirror and pow...what the heck? who is that? oh yeah, its me...not the me when I picture myself in my head but the real me, the one everyone else gets to see. I guess I am a grown up now. I still however am not truly convinced I am, so I saw this list and read it.

     If the majority of the list applies to me, it does make me a grown up right? Yeah, I thought so! Doesn't mean I have to act like a grown up thought!!! Anyone else in denial? Join me, its fun!

Blunt Card Giggles

     On days like today, we all need a laugh to get through the day, a little distraction.  Bluntcards make me giggle, so I though I would share.  Its a site with cards we all wish we could send to those people that annoy us. They make me giggle and just wish I was nervy enough to send a few. Here are a few of my favourites:

     The rest can be found at the Bluntcards website.  If you are easily offended or don't find sarcasm funny then please do not go, but if you do go, laugh away and picture in your head about who you would sent them to, it just may help you get through the day.



My Day Off!

     Today has been my day off of sorts.  Yes, I still had the baby but I ONLY had the baby.  Mike was off work today as well.  What a nice quiet relaxing type of day. 

     We got up and headed out to get some deals during our towns attempt at Black Friday.  Not really the greatest deals but a couple of items we needed to finish the kids shopping happened to on for a decent price. 

   We cleaned together and chatted.  We laughed, while I folded laundry and Mike watched tv (nice huh).  He made lunch while the baby napped.  Then after lunch I napped.  Just a nice,easy relaxing day. 

     Tonight is my Niece's Birthday party.  Sorry Kira, Mike will not be attending until later.  He is being sent out to obtain a Christmas tree cheap during midnight madness.   I hope he comes home with a tree and a sweater I had my eye on. 

    So sorry for this non-specific rambly post but its my day off today.  What did you expect?

      Oh, as a side note, if I am on anyone's christmas list this year and you just dont know what to buy me...I think I have found my one, true love...It really puts my snuggie to shame.  They are called Forever Lazy and Mike refuses to let me be seen in them, but come on I am Forever Lazy, these are made to be mine...*sigh*

     Have a safe and happy weekend!

Almost Wordless Wednesday - I miss this person edition

MISSING - My Former Self

      
If you've seen her, tell her to get her skinny butt back here.  I miss her and I am sure Mike does too!
