Update

First, I put in pictures of the kids room after it got picked up. Looks much nicer now.

Second, my mom commented that they looked cramped up there. Let me assure anyone that it is more about having too much stuff. To see how much space they are sharing I found the house layout with the square footage. Anyone care to guess how much square footage my kids are being shoved into? I will put then answer in the comments for this post.

And if you think it is unfair that they share this amount of space..........I am not sure what to think.

Ready for this?

My kids are sharing a room with a square footage of......324 square feet. The room measures 13 x 23 feet. Along with the 5 feet by 5 feet alcove (Emma's, they put the other in with the main measurements).

Your house reminds me so much of our old farmhouse. You're making me miss it.

And cramped? We Americans today are so spoiled with space. We live in a roughly 1800 sq. ft. house, and sometimes it seems so big as to be unmanageable. Then again, we do all sleep in one room. But still, I was ready to sell it and move into a motor home this summer.

I'm jealous of the shower. I've had 2 weddings and 3 kids and only 2 showers in all of that, and they were both for my first wedding. Well, there was a shower for Samantha, but it was held in Missouri while I was in Alaska, so I got gifts but not the fun. If shower's are fun. Then again, with my family, maybe I'm glad there were no showers.

3 weeks? Good luck! Scheduled c right? What date? Only asking because my daughter and step-daughter's birthdays are the first two days of November.

I'll Do It Better In My Next Thirty years

Today is doomsday. At 9:05 a.m on this very day thirty years ago my mother gave birth to me. I have done the "Holy crap, where did the years go?" I have done the "When did *I* get so freaking old?" I have cried and been mad and upset. I have looked at my life and realized it was NOT what I thought it would be at thirty. In both good and bad ways. I have run the gamut, so to speak and frankly now I am worn completely out. I am done. I went through getting old sucks . I spent time reminiscing about Swatch watches from back in the day. I have shed tears over my babies not being babies anymore . I tired to stop thirty from coming and realized that it was inevitable. I even got my friends to realize that we are indeed getting old. So today, as I move on in life and have to start checking a new box on forms, I still stand by my very first post on getting older. I think Tim McGraw has it right. My Next Thirty Years I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age The en...

It Is Official...

I am now officially a participant in the NaBloPoMo . What is this you ask? It is an alternative to National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as, NaNoWriMo . The goal of NaNoWriMo is to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. Since I lack focus, which some like to call adult ADD, there is no way I could do that. So, enter NaBloPoMo. Besides sounding funnier, it is a much more doable thing for me. The goal of this? Post an entry to my blog every day for the entire month of November. You heard it folks. You will be blessed with some random something from me EVERY DAY for the ENTIRE month of November. I am even on the Official List. I am, really. You can go look. Now you may be asking yourself how you got so lucky. And I can not give you the answer to that. All I can say is that you can look forward to me rambling about basically nothing for the whole month. So sit back and enjoy the ride. Now, if I could only figure out how the hell to put up my button and get it to hy...
