My full time job.

I Love my life as a full time mommy and wife. I went out today with my son who was an amazing child. He loves being independent and walking on his own. He loves to fun up and down the stairs He just loves being out of the house. I wish that it would cool down a little bit ( a whole latta bit) so we could go to the park then I dont have to worry about spending money. But I will tell you my awesome day while spending very little money

1) salvation army, 1 pair of gaucho pants for me, you dont know jack computer game, and an interactive computer book for logan $4.33 ( none of which came out of our bank account)

2) picking up seans dry cleaning $19 not a very happy spending amout that did come out of the account.

3) dollar tree halloween decorations and a package of wet wipes $8 ( not out of the account)

4) denny's for lunch I had a 20% off coupon and got a grand slam for me and kids meal for logan 12.95 + 20% off coupon = $10 for lunch

5) blockbuster, Bridesmaids, dispicable me, and the switch for $12 dollars

so in total, i spent $43 out of our account and managed to have a wonderful day... now i just need to find a way to have just as much fun without spending any money

mommy in a strange place

A mom is a strange place to be all on its own, so lets pair that with being in a place way down south, where 90% of the population speak Spanish and people are already in smallish clicks. This mom comes from being social and looking forward to play groups and being a mom and enjoying the social aspect of getting to hang out with the moms with kids.


I know I am going to catch hell from the moms who "love" their jobs (BTW I absolutely love my job) and they will all tell me that I just need to find things that we both love doing..which would be so much easier if we weren't on a budget and it wasn't 100 degrees on a daily basis. I know I like to complain a lot and it's unflattering but oh freaking well...this way if you don't like it you don't have to read this.


Well this mommy is way down south in the clicks and play groups that only happen every once and a while and the moms who forget you...because they dont want to hang out with you or you only have 1 kid who still doesn't understand "playing" in the "PLAY group". So now I sit at home watching TV, cleaning house, and trying to keep myself sane with a crazy hyper 1 year old who loves mommy's attention 100% of the time. so the cleaning hardly gets done, unless its after 8pm when he is sound asleep in bed.


my venting is done, I feel like i can take a full breath, for those of you that read this whole annoying, gripy blog if you have thoughts and feelings about this please feel free to share I will be appreciated.
