Reflexology


Yesterday evening, on a rare occasion, I left the house alone.  I went to the mall to get a pedicure.  As I walked in they said "No room, come back 30 minute".   So off I went.  As I walked through the mall, longing for a time when I can actually come back and shop for outfits (not a shirt or pants but complete outfits) I came across a "spa".  There they offered 1 hour of reflexology for $35.00.  Well heck, I must go.  As I asked the lady to explain, she pointed and said "1 hour, foot, relax, feel good".  Sold!  Who needs pink toe nails right?

So in I go and I sit on the big relaxing chair.  Nice!  She makes it lay back all the way and I start to get comfortable.  As she puts the towel over me (I am fully dress in a maxi dress) she pats my belly and says "baby?"  Hahahaha, sob sigh, ha, nooooooo! Wait, but I did had one 7 months ago, did I mention I have 4, wait you don't understand, smile and shake head no.  Note to self, maxi dress does NOT flatter my figure.  Please burn - while in a girdle - wearing my size 8 pants!

Totally productive work IM's






Now I am eating pineapple.  What has the world come to!

Size 8 :)

So today I am a size 8*.  


*This does not intend to imply, covey or suggest I am actually a size 8 but that there is 1 pair of pants that are oversized that have a tag that say size 8 in them.

Intro to all...Because we know so many are reading this already!

This  blog is dedicated to the insanity of my life and a therapy for me to bring comical relief to my day.  Nothing said within this blog is to be taking with any grain of seriousness as it is again dedicated to Satire and "Laughes".  I know not if anyone will read this and really either way does not matter because it is for me.  If you do here are a few rules.

1)  NO judgment.  If you don't like it, don't read it.

2) Please do not tell me my blog is misspelled, it is on purpose and one of the ways to let get of the fact that my life is full of rules including being Ms. Mean  School Teacher Mom to my child.  I happen to know that "Laughes" is not spelled this way, it is correctly spelled as "Laughs".

I think that is about all the rules.  Too many and this would not be the site I intend it to me. 

Now why this blog.  I have another blog, why not just start there.  Well, I made that blog long ago and really have no interest in sharing a lot of the mundane and personal aspects of my life.  Sure lots of good things happen but I post them on facebook in short little sentences and that is enough for me.  I also post all my pictures there too, so it really got to be a lot of work.  And that is one thing I do not need.  More work.  I do not want to look for more work, I have plenty to do here that I am good at ignoring. 

So me - not in order or priority:

1) I am a full time working mom.  I work from home, which means I NEVER leave work.  If someone needs something, they ring up my desk and normally I can hear it and "have" to go in to do something about it.  I have a difficult time in just letting go and leaving things until the morning.   

2) I am a mother to 4 children....and I work from home.....which means they NEVER leave me alone unless I go completely crazy on them and start pulling out my hair.  Having my husband take them away from the house is a treat and like a mini-vacation only with all the normal work of a day. 

3) I homeschool my son Jeremy.  I love this but he is a little mini-me.  That is good and BAD all at the same time.  He has developed the skill of argument and since I also have this, we argue a lot over little things.  I am trying to just stop but I can't help it and I am pretty sure he can't help it either.  So around and around we go.

4) I live with my husband, 4 kids, 7 chickens, 4 cows, 2 goats, 2 sheep and 2 dogs on 10 acres and have lofty dreams of homesteading and becoming mostly self sustained.  (this is one of those work points that I am very good at ignoring)

5) Most of the time when I say we, I really mean my husband

So that is the intro.  Not sure if this will work or not, but it will be my therapy of letting go and putting a spin on things that happen in my life.  Names of the innocent will be changed to protect them.  I am thinking of terms like my husband, my 1st son, my only daughter, yrahcaz, etc.
