I've done lost my mind!

You know those mornings where you wake up and right from the bat you KNOW you're going to have a nutty day?

Well I slept through my alarm which is something I never do. NEVER! But thankfully I actually was woken up by the sweet Eden, who was calling me to ask me a question. She left a message on the machine and I went to go call her back on my cellphone....and this is where I lost my marbles.

Let me give you a little backstory first. Every afternoon, I go and pick up the kids from school and I always take a snack for them, I take juice and some crackers or apples or whatever. When I get back home, I throw out the empty wrappers and the plastic bags they were in, but far too often, I pop my cellphone in the same bag to make it easier while carrying backpacks and jackets and whatnot.

So I get to the kitchen.....are you with me still? *snicker*

I look at the counter where I usually leave the phone, and it's not there. So I check in my purse thinking I put it away and it's not there. Then the paranoia hits me, I do a quick mental check and realize that I may have thrown out the cellphone inside the plastic bag.

Next thing I know, it's 7am and I'm digging through my trash. DIS.GUS.TING! Keep laughing, because I hadn't even had coffee and was elbow deep in empty juice pouches, leftover cereal and other things that I can't even describe.

Then I hear it....a ring and I start digging faster and deeper. I'm surprised trash wasn't flying around the kitchen. The phone kept ringing and I kept digging.....until I stopped for a second and realized that the ringing was coming from my purse. Somehow when I first searched through it, I missed it. The cellphone was in the purse all along!

Here, take a kleenex and wipe the tears from your eyes, I can hear you all cackling from over here....and now that it's over, it's actually pretty funny. HAHAHAHAHAH

But it gets better because apparently I had one single marble left which I done lost right as I started typing this post.

After cleaning up the mess, taking a shower, and grabbing my coffee, I sat here at the laptop ready to check email and blogs etc....and I reach over and grab my cellphone and start moving it around (thinking it was my mouse). WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? I was getting pretty irritated because the pointer wasn't moving at all, then I hear Jasmine's voice "Mommy, what are you doing with your cellphone?"

BUSTED! By my own child, in a moment of insanity! Folks, I'm only turning 35 years old, there is no excuse for these things happening LOL

Now I'm going to get kids ready for school and start my day, I'll leave you all laughing over here and here's a little bit of advice....next time you hear your cellphone ringing, make sure it's in your purse before you dive for the trash can.

Ummm....did I just miss a day of blogging???

Honestly, I don't know what the heck happened, but I was so busy and just sat down at the computer to realize that I haven't yet posted anything......hmmmm....not normal is it???

It's 9pm and the kids are upstairs asleep, the house is sooo quiet and I wonder why I don't just start doing my blogging at night time, I mean, think about it, not only will I have more to talk about because with MY life there's always something interesting going on....but it's easier to think and jot down my thoughts without loosing track and being distracted 100 times with the usual "I'm hungry", "I'm thirsty", "mommy I want a snack", "mommy he's looking at me"....which is really not very condusive to interesting posts.

So let's see, what has been going on here, same stuff different day?? Isn't it frustrating when your life becomes so predictable??? I miss adventure sometimes or the thrill of doing "spur of the moment" things, a concept that goes straight out the window the minute you find out your pregnant...from then on, and until they're old enough to move out on their own, you're on a set routine. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not complaining, I love my life and I love being a SAHM.

Thank you again to all who participated in the Holiday Traditions yesterday, I was so glad to see some new faces and what was even better for me, was going back and re-reading the older posts....there are some VERY neat traditions out there, love it :)

And now I have to give a shout out to my friend Barb, ok those Breakfast Burritos are dangerous, very dangerous, I've become addicted to them, I have them for breakfast, I have them for lunch and dinner and snack whatever....but here is the best part...I've lost another two pounds LOL
Obviously I can't say for sure that it's the burritos, but that is all I've been eating, that and drinking Diet Coke, so hey, it's working for me, I'm NOT going to complain.

I don't have much planned for this week, which is good, I feel like I've been on a never ending roller coaster and quite frankly it's making me sick to my stomach, I just want it to stop so I can get off and take a breather.

What else is going on here, I am sorry if I seem a bit cooky tonight, I guess the sleep is starting to creep in and I tend to get a little ditzy when I'm tired. LOL

So anyway, now you know what I was doing today. Well my friends, sleep is calling beckoning me, I hope you all have a wonderful night and I'll see you first thing in the morning. I'll bring coffee and donuts, how's that???
