Wow, Where Has the Time Gone?

It's June, and not just June, but the end of June.  How did I miss the last 3 months?  The last time I chatted with you was in April I believe.  Alright, I know how, I have been Crazy busy, and unfortunately, it hasn't really been with stuff that I wanted to be doing, like actual work, as in 3 jobs (1 semi full time and 2 part time positions).  I think I took on a little too much at 1 time, cause I totally exhausted myself.  However, as summer begins, OFFICIALLY TODAY, boo-ya!!!! I have some good news for everyone, I'm back.  My jobs are done as of Friday, and my life can resume some normalcy.  The kids are looking forward to a fantastic summer, with me 2 weeks at a time (Mad Dad is going away to work {insert sad face}), and I think we are going to try some camping as well on the weeks that Mad Dad is home, which is a bonus for the kidlets, cause we will actually have tome to do so.

So what have I been up to, you ask? Well, besides work, work and more work, I have been selling cakes! Oh yes, I apparently have a knack for it and have had requests for my creations.  Look at me go!  I have a few more to do this summer, and it will end with a wedding cake in August, YAY!!!!!!

And while I have your attention, I want to direct you over to Donna at Funky Junk Interiors.  To start with, I want to tell you, she is an amazingly creative lady from B.C, Canada (holla), who I would love to have come spruce up my yard with some of her creations (but alas, I live to far away, lol).  Anyhoo, Donna is having a wonderful giveaway this week.  A Silhouette!!!!  Yes you heard me correctly, for the week of June 21 to the 29, you can enter for this fabulous machine.  She also has a fantastic review of it on the post.  So head on over, check out the giveaway and dont forget to stay awhile and see exactly what she is about.  Wonderful!

Alright, until tomorrow(?) Happy First Day of Summer!

DELETED!

Just a quick note, as I run out the door.  My email and blog was recently hacked.  I am not quite sure what was sent out, but I know I am not thrilled with it.  Also, my blog was temporarily deleted this morning too.  So if this in any way affects you, please let me know.

Have a happy Saturday, enjoy the weather (sorry for the snow Kimbo).

Later dudes!

A Day Off!!!!! Finally..........

So I finally have an actual day off, not just  day that I don't have to leave my house at 7 am.  So let's see what's on the agenda for today, shall we?

I have already done 2 loads of laundry, and went through all of the kids spring and summer clothes.  Don't worry, I'm not gonna jinx us all by putting away the winter clothes quite yet, I just have 2 MASSIVE containers of clothes for the 3 of them, I thought since they are still on spring break and I am not working, that we would see what fits and get rid of what doesn't.  It will also curb my enthusiasm for shopping, and buying them things that they already have.  I am on my way to finally wash the winter off my van, and out of it.  Then it's lunch time.

 Then because I have the best kids in the world, it's time for easter crafting.  Supernan told me that I was the BEST craft mamma in the world.  Now I know in real life it's not true (I have fun, but not always super together and creative), But when he said that, I was on top of the world.  Because in his eyes, it's true! And that makes me feel like a million bucks!

That's what I am doing on my "day off".  Is it 100% worth it? With comments like that, you betcha.

On a side note, sorry for the lack of actual pics, I am still having an internal debate on where to go with this.

Anyways, until tomorrow, Enjoy your day, Enjoy your family, and Enjoy the sun, I hope it's out for you too.  I know I certainly will!

A Toast to Time Management

I am toast, I m exhausted.  Kudos to all the working mothers who work, and then come home to work again.  When I was younger I had the energy of a toddler and had no problem working more than 1 job.  Now however, I am so tired, I can't even be clever.  The words get a mixed up in my head and I end up sounded like a highly medicated senior.  See what I mean, still not clever.  

In an earnest attempt at something, although I am not quite sure what, I figured it would be a good idea to jump right back into the workforce, while still trying to maintain my household how I want, and adding some continuing education from home.  What a mess! Oh and making a feeble  attempt at keeping my blog going, and interesting?

I will prevail, I just need to get my bearings and learn to time manage a little bit better.

So now that I am done with my rant, I would love to hear what all my blog land friends have been up to.  Drop me a line, cause I feel a little lonely since I can't post every day.

Until tomorrow, Enjoy your day, Enjoy your Family and Happy April 5th!

A Recollection Of Favs

Happy April Fools All!  Now normally we try to get up and play a nice trick on the kids, this year though, we forgot, it has been crazy hectic here in the Chaos household.  So I figured this morning, I would recollect my favorite April Fools tricks by friends and families.

1: Shortly after my friend's boy was born, her and her husband decided they would wait a while to have more.  Since he always played tricks on her, and never looked at the calendar, she decided to pull one over on him.  She found the perfect blue marker, the same color as the blue on a positive pregnancy test.  Low and behold, I don't think I have ever seen a more scared look on the face of a man.  Priceless.

2:  This one can be a bit messy, but funny too.  Saran wrap on the toilet seat.  Enough said.

And finally, 3:  Performed by me as a child.  I offered my grandfather some ice cream, and of course he accepted.  So off in to the kitchen I went, scooped together (and made it look real) some butter, plopped in a spoon and handed it over.  Now the fact that I was like 6 may have helped, but he actually started to eat it, and then everyone had a good laugh over it.  Priceless!

That's all for today, so until tomorrow, Enjoy your family, Enjoy your day, and Have fun with all of your trickery!
