On hold with the IRS

You might find it hard to believe. I have been married to David Letterman and Tom Sizemore. Yep. You may have missed it on the news. Also, when I got pregnant, the doctor thought it would be best to artificially impregnate my 53 year old mother so she could be a surrogate. Ya know... so I could have twins again?

Many thanks go out to Celebrity Rehab and Big Love. Because if I hadn't fallen asleep watching these shows, my pregnancy dreams might actually be normal. Not sure were Letterman comes in at. Probably because he likes the non -makeup wearing, slightly chubby gals. Which, is how I am feeling nowadays. I wake in the morning feeling these dreams are completely true, so real.  David Letterman and Tom Sizemore...Really?  Maybe I should watch re-runs of Saved By the Bell. The problem would be if Mr Belding and Screech made it into my dreams. Eeek.

Please note, in my normal( as normal as it gets) awake state, I do NOT pine over Letterman or Sizemore.  

Just sayn'


Since I don't have a bouncer guarding the entrance to my head. Bottom line, I need to fall asleep to better programing. I am scared to watch EWTN before bed. I cant control my silly mind at night, so lets keep the priests and nuns out of my active imagination for now.

Reality TV.. in today- out tomorrow. What happened to all of those shows about the trials of the tanning industry? Blow Out with Jonathan Anton. So funny. Where did that go? Flipping Out-ehhh OK. Can you tell I watch Bravo too much. The all- time family fav every week WIPE OUT. So incredibly stupid and mindless. Just perfect tv. Sometimes that's just what you need. So, with that mindless POST, I'm Seacrest OUT.

Side note-- I have turned on the oven to cook dinner. Only to find that somehow I turned it off. Dinner time has taken hours at our house. I AM LOSING MY MIND!

BA BA BLING - Bring it!

Mothers. of girls. Want to hear your daughter say " Mom, you are the best mother in the whole world"  Do I have the easy cheap solution for you. BLING STRING. Oh yes. Oh yes. My three year old daughter shrieked with delight when I told her she could have rainbow, pink, and purple "sparkles" put in her hair. $15 dollars later...my daughter was thrown' down some serious baba bling.

Please note: This is not me or my daughter.

I am totally the coolest mom...to bad she is only three and doesnt know any better. Do you think bling strings will work when she is 15?

Is it because I will be old? 31????

Work is so slow but I just cant bring myself to blog. I feel like I should be doing something to drum up business. But, alas, after several inches of snow, a blogging I will go.

I have been leaving comments on peoples blogs. At least I thought I was? I don't know. But somehow I have messed that up. Thanks to all who continue to leave comments for me... Queen B... you must be a stellar doctor in training.. I am totally pregnant. I will be hitting the 14 week end of this week. I probably wont blog much about the pregnancy. Totally chicken. But a few notes on baby #4.  At almost (eeekkkk) 31 years young, this pregnancy has not been as forgiving as my last two in my 20's. I feel like such a loser. Seriously sick and ick most of the time. Just waiting to get back into the swing of things.  I am already showing for sure. I am about 10-15 pounds heavier(starting weight) than in my last pregnancies. Plus, since I had twins last time, I think I "popped" at 3 weeks :) Maybe an exaggeration. But still.

We are all just completely blessed by the news. But as I blogged before, very shocked at some of the seemingly negative comments. Again, we are all thrilled and cant wait to see our HEALTHY baby.
In other news, dinner time. A total stressor in my house.  My husband refuses to eat grown up food. Thus, the kids wont eat it. Then I don't make it. So what does a gal do? Make the darn food anyway!  I am going to try e-mealz.com. Totally cheap and will fit our lifestyle. I think this is exactly what my family needs to eat better. Only $5 a month. Worth a shot.

Keep warm!!!

Beware--

I found this on More like Mary- More like Me blog. Join in, blog it and leave me a comment.

Lately I haven't been feeling well at all. Frankly, I am so annoyed at myself. So I can imagine the added stress that it places on my husband. My hubby has graciously taken the reigns in our home. He has stepped it up and helped so much with the kids. I feel horrible like such a loser for all of the slack he has had to pick up. I am grateful to have him.

Last night I made him salmon patties which he loves( why I don't know) But I burnt them and had to throw my family's dinner away. In our smoke filled home, my hubby ate a sandwich instead.

I am such a scaredy cat at night. All of the littlest noises make me think that we have bad guys in our home. I am so grateful that he has no problem getting up in the wee hours of the night to check things out.

My hubby use to work 3rd shift...totally stank. With all of the kids, it was much easier to have them sleep with me at night. Especially since I was always dealing with the kids' chronic illness. By the grace of God, my hubby now works days. Most mornings we wake up with all of the kids in the bed. No grumbles on his part.

God definitely has brought my hubby and I though a lot of challenges and suffering. Sometimes, I just didn't know how we were going to fair. But,we are stronger than ever and continue to work through those tough times.  He is a no quit kind of guy. Both of my parents are serial divorcees...so quitting is how they roll.

I get down a lot with my job. Not break dancing down ( Paula Abdul !! are you reading my blog ...Again????) ((I guess you do have to be drunk to want to read through this mush)) Hubby is always there and says " Don't you remember this time last year was just like this" Even though he is not right, it does make me feel a bit better.

My husband converted to Catholicism a few short months after we married. What a tremendous gift that is to our marriage and our kids. This is the ultimate blessing.

My husband it the GREATEST father in the world. Sorry ladies... Ive got you beat. He loves our kids so much. Never questions any activity we do for them. He scoops up my babies and hugs them tight and kisses follow. He is all theirs as soon as he comes home from work. I love how he shows his love to them.

We get mice. We aren't dirtballs. But we get mice. Disgusting. Guess who has that duty. My loving husband. Totally stinks. Anything dirty, gross, or buggy....has his name all over it.

My husband is ok with all of my compltely irrational( sometimes) worries. He listens, doesnt try to talk me out of them ( he wouldnt win) and tries to make me feel better.

So many other reasons I love him. Really. I couldnt possibly be married to me. It would be awful! So maybe thats his greatest strength... he can handle me as his wife.

Thank you God for my man. Thanks for allowing us to continue to grow in our marriage.
