So, in the past I have used this blog just as a way to vent every couple weeks and occasionally share the craziness that my life has become.
After a lot of thought I have decided I want to attempt to "do" blogging "for real'.
I consider myself a fairly creative person but between work and 4 kids I have struggled to find an outlet. Writing has always been a way for me to "get it all out" when I'm mad, sad, and especially when I'm happy or excited.
With all of that said, this is my official announcement that I'm about to jack this blog up!! (You know, like on Say Yes to the Dress when Monty "jacks up" a bride by adding all the shiny, sparkly things!?)
Bare with me as I get use to really blogging as more than just an occasional free 3 minutes at 2 a.m. I want this to be a fun place for us all and I'm always open to suggestions from those of you who "jacked up" your blogs a long time ago! :)
I can't wait to share more with you guys and learn more about you all in return! Happy Blogging!

pre-teens
Hell. That is what I'm living through right now. PURE HELL.
In my house I have 10 year old, 11 year old and 13 year old girls. Two of which are currently PMS'ing (TMI I know, but it adds to the fact that I'm living in hell).
While I absolutely love these girls I have officially decided they are the rudest, most hateful, ungrateful and downright spiteful kids I have ever met in my life.
These girls are in foster care and have been through a lot. I know. I get it. My home life was not always a great thing either. They are kids. I know. I get it. I was a kid once too. Had I talked to and treated people the way these girls treat me I would sure as heck hope that somebody would have brought me down a notch or two.
Alas, I will deal with the crazy. I will cry myself to sleep some nights because I try so hard to help and give them things and experiences they would have never gotten had they been with their bio parents, and my efforts are COMPLETELY unappreciated. I will pray for a break and get over it when I don't get one, other than bed time and that is by far my new favorite time of day.
This too shall pass. Life is hard and I did kind of ask for this when I opened my home to foster kids.
Sigh.
