I can not even tell you how many times a week that phrase comes out of my mouth.  Brittnie, God bless her, she loves her horse and wants to ride every free minute she gets.  It has been quite a site to watch however this last month or so since school has started that she nearly has to chase the horse to be able to get a lead on her. At dinner this night (one night a week or so ago) Britt says "I want to go out and ride but my dumb horse won't ever come to me anymore"  Now I know that horse isn't dumb and so does she but she had been so frustrated that she has been having to work so hard to catch her.  Anyway, I am not really sure why Ladybug has been so standoffish with her but a couple of things came to mind that night.  I threw out my thoughts to Britt... 1) maybe ladybug doesn't recognize you anymore.  I mean after all you only started having problems catching her after you colored your hair at the beginning of school.  For 7 years now she has ...

I know it seems like forever since I have posted anything.  It isn't because I haven't done anything, I have.  I just haven't slowed down long enough to blog about it.  Yes, yes I know I can blog from my cell but we have been busy enough that I haven't really given it a whole lot of thought.  Until that is I was looking at how many page views I had for the last two weeks and realized there will be no page views if there are no new posts.  We have done all sorts of stuff the last couple of weeks.  Been on several short rides on the bike.

Stephen and I are waiting patiently for a mini vacation that will be coming up this next week.  Since this time last year he has wanted to go to...

In all the blogs I read all the moms present this perfect version of their lives.  I hate this.  No ones kitchen ever looks spotless after letting a bunch of toddlers finger paint with home made paint.  Who do they think they're kidding?  Life is not ever that neat and clean.  I am sorry if you all ever get that impression because my life gets messy and ugly.  With that in mind I feel the need to share it with you today.  A confession of sorts ☺ ~It's Sunday.  I am still feeling extremely sleepy and a bit lazy but must be here at work.  I am typing this blog between helping medics sign drugs & stuff in and out for their day and setting up for the rest of my day.  I am positive I can hear my pillow still crying because I had to get up and leave ;) ~I like to sleep in.  And as I was heading to bed last night (early because I had to work) and complaining that I hate the long work week because I miss him...hubby informed me th...
