Make Time

I am going to MAKE TIME for me... I have taken the last few days to sit online and LOOK for free or nearly free things that I may be interested in.

I'm lucky I have a car, and I am willing to travel. I have gone around Meetup.com and have been getting emails regarding new groups and things that I would like to do. And I am going to check some out hopefully this month.

I like meetup. I am sure I am going to be able to find some lovely ladies to hang out with for a few hours. See I love my personality. People usually end up liking me after a few moments.

I am looking into meetups that revolve around movies for right now. I'll update later when I actually confirm and have attended a meeting.

I survied my VERY FIRST Earthquake!!

I am sooo glad that I did too!
I went down to Cyclehawk today to talk some business. I have tons of time and energy invested in this company and we are going on our 3rd year of business. Slowly getting out of the red and into the black PERMANENTLY!!! Wooot wooot!

Anyway I was at the desk going over credit card statements, transaction histories, making notes on who I have to contact the next day and delagating tasks to the other employees... (yup I'm a BOSS BITCH)

So here's how it went down...
BH: Hey, Yum Yum do you feel the ground moving? (yeah they call me Yum Yum cause I am always munching on something)
Me: Ummm yeah.... but I thought it was only me... I wasn't going to say anything.......
CSR: Hey there was an earthquake in Va.
Me: sooooooo maybe its after shocks or something..
(phone rings... its my boyfriend)
Me: Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeey Baby (all chipper) Did you feel the ground move?
The BF: Get The Fuck Home Now!!! The ground is moving all the way in Brooklyn
Me (to the office): Welllll it's been fun! Gots to go! See yall tomorrow..... (dash downstairs to catch a cab)

Just Me

scare my friends in the bathroom

Getting back to me

This is my mission. My kids are old enough that I do not have to do EVERYTHING for them alone. They are old enough for me to head out for a night on the town with my girlfriends a few times a month.

You know as a female there is NOT much you can possibly do in NYC that doesn't cost a heap of cash. Like, guys can head out on a Friday night to a local bar and drink beers all night and play pool. Girls can... but we don't. I know I won't, when I go out I am not looking to be hit on.. I am looking to have a good time.

As females, we enjoy getting all dressed up and cute. Nails & hair done. Cute dress (long or short it doesn't matter). Great shoes (comfortablilty is not a requirement, we will just watch how long we are actually standing up, and keep our dance moves to a short quick two step) matching purse and the right accessories. THIS IS WHAT IT TAKES TO START OFF A GREAT EVENING ON THE RIGHT FOOT.

Now plans... plans are another aspect of getting back to me... what do I like to do... PSHH I do almost everything that my kids like to do.... so I will have to figure it out as I go.
  • I like to fight... (no not popping shit on the block) I am talking about real fighting. I love to box.
  • I like to shoot guns...(again, NO not outside randomly) I am talking about heading to a shooting range.
  • I like broadway plays
  • I like outdoor concerts
  • I like Ice Skating
  • I like physical activities.
  • I like to dance.
  • I like being by myself.
What do I want to do.
  • Wear dresses more often... I honestly only own 3 lol ain't that a shame
  • Maybe even start wearing makeup
  • I want to travel
These are things that I plan on doing. It doesn't mean it will be an overnight thing, as I don't believe that people can change (even if they want to) overnight. But these are things that I am going to work towards.

Why do I need to wait until December 31st to start thinking about New Years Resolutions. Why can't I do it now?

Once your a mom..... that's all you are

I have been a mom almost half my life.... yup I said it.... almost HALF of my LIFE. And now I have a whole heap of kids.. I love my little heathens to death. I am a great mom! Of course I make mistakes, don't always do things the proper or conventional way... but none the less I am happy with the way I am raising my kids.

I have had a baby in my teens, twenties and thirties.... and noooooooo I don't think I will be having a baby in my forties... I'm 99% sure I am done. Some where between then and now I have lost myself. It's not as bad as it sounds.

Becoming a parent.... is the easy part. Being the parent is the hard part. No more up and going some place. The first time you are called not by your name but (INSERT CHILDS NAME HERE)'s Mom... is kinda cool. But when you become So-An-So's Mom, That Kid With The Big Eye's Mom and The Pretty Little Girl's Mom... you start thinking... yeah I'm all that but I am also ME...... do you want to know my name .... kinda thing.

God forbid you head out to a bar/lounge (whatever) and someone asks if you have kids... you get that look like ...you got kids and your here instead of home with them. Well WHY THE FUCK NOT.... why because I have kids I'm supposed to sit in the house 24/7 ... I am a grown ass woman... I can do what the fuck I want to do... shit you don't know me.. I'm with my kids alllllllllllll the time. No sitters, No Nothing.... if its 5pm in the middle of a blizzard and I need something from the store to finish fixing dinner. I am dressing 2 little kids and trooping it to the store. SHIT I NEED A DRINK every now and then.

Or what about when someone you know sees you outside (GASP) without the kids... and they ask where are the kids... I have this over whelming urge to say Duck Taped to their bedroom door...... Or what about when someone asks where the kids are and I say oh they are upstairs with their dad.... that person replies oh He's Babysitting... NO YOU FUCKIN DOUCHE .... hes NOT BABYSITTING ... they are his fuckin KIDS.....

I know I have kids, I know I need to be responsible. I know I know I know. And you know what I AM.... so if you ever see me dancing on a bar table, swaying to my own beat... eyes closed...... just know I am BEING ME.... not MOM and FUCK YEAH I DESERVE IT.
