Pumpkins!

the pumpkin patch right by the house...

Jack!

Jack pooped on the potty allll by himself...

It was really quiet and my mom went to investigate what he was up to and he was sitting on the toilet.. This is momentous for Jack. He has not had any interest in potty training for the last several months..

After he washed his hands, he came up to me and said "Can I have my Geo Traxx now?"
(we have been promising him a new train if he would go)

Yay Jackie!

Matt and the Tooth Fairy

Matt lost another tooth Friday night. HE was soo excited and pleaded with him to wait. But it fell out and the tooth fairy was very sleepy that night.
She cleaned bathrooms, the litterbox, did lots of laundry and it was 3:30 before everyone was completely asleep and the tooth fairy felt safe enough to come out...

Happy Birthday To Me!

Yesterday was my birthday.. Today my un-birthday... Technically speaking - I was born on or about midnight on August 22 or Early August 23 in an emergency c-section and both my mother and I were so critical at the time of my birth, none of the attendents looked at the clock until after midnight. Since they had wheeled my mom into the room right before twelve they put August 22 on my certificate. This VITAL information is something I learned only a few years ago. Which leads me to wonder am I really born today?? Most likely.. So for the past four years I have two birthdays.. :) Which is good only if your NOT getting old..

I was bad yesterday.. The thing I wanted most, what I had not had in months. A triple shot caramel macchiato with extra caramel and extra foam. It was heaven in my mouth.. I enjoyed every drop, licked the straw ( as usual ) and for several hours I was buzzed on the esspresso zipping through my viens....

I went on a hunt for ebay shopping at the local thrift store. Here in Utah its called DI, or Deseret Industries. Its better than any thrift store I have ever been to, the selection, price and sheer volume is uncomparable. I have had so much fun buying from them. Last hunt we found a pair of brand new Oilily Jeans that we paid $3.00 for and I sold for $17.50. I can shop and then make a little extra money doing it.

It was hot yesterday. 104°. Originally the plan was to take the kids to the zoo, but there was NO way I was toting 4 hot and cranky kids around in that heat.

We went to dinner. Steak is always good. I love a good steak. I was really, really bad and ordered an appletini. I couldn't help it. Applebees - they are my favorite. Of course I felt silly, but that was as crazy as I get.

I am officially 32 now, anyway you look at it. I cried last night. I don't want to be old. I hate this part of life.

On a top note, I bought gap skirt SIZE ONE! when into a kid shoe store and bought myself shoes and found a kid gap sweater at the thrift store. So maybe after all I am really am still a that child I feel like I am inside ;)

A sense of getting somewhere!!!!

I just checked the mail and this came!!! I am sooo excited.. I don't have to pay the fees for the divorce. They will be waived and I can get through this. Its such a relief.. AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......... :D

Brownies and Cookies??

Thanks to Shanna who introduced this awesome product into my life. I finally, finally found it in the grocery store.. I guess shopping at Target all the time doesn't always pay off ( for the record I found the mix at Walmart :X )...

Darienne begged and begged me to make it all day long and finally I did. We waited for some piece and quiet and enjoyed them... Here is our story :P

Here I go....

Its Official...
I am naked without any medical insurance for the first time in almost 18 years. I went to the pharmacy counter last night to pick up three of my meds and discovered that my insurance was terminated the day before, and NOT at the end of the month as I had been aware of..

I am scared. My meds are a big part of my life. Without them I cannot function normally.

I cannot afford them by myself. Imitrex alone is $856.00 by its self.. That is essential.

Not to mention the other meds I have that are going to be more than I can pay and I will have to NOT have.. somethings GOT to give!!!!
