Happy Rantings!

I feel like ranting today...and I guess they aren't exactly happy :)

First on my list is: I want my kids to sleep longer in the morning! I hate waking up early and I know it is good they don't sleep until noon-anymore. ha ha ha. But mommy is a happier camper when she gets to sleep in! I can't seem to fall asleep earlier if I don't take some kind of night time medication! I was (in my mind) addicted to Nyquil until I used it all and decided I won't be buying that for myself anymore :)

Second: I hate money. I hate that it controls everything and is so important. I find it especially annoying since I do work hard, but I don't monetarily contribute to the family. It bugs me! You can probably never have enough, I am thankful I don't HAVE to work outside the house and that we don't need for anything.

Third: I hate chores with a passion and my kids can be, at times, the messiest kids in the world. I wish I could even like just one chore...but I don't. Unless it is mowing the lawn to get a break from the kids or re-organizing something when I have a good idea (Doesn't happen often). It is probably a good thing we move every couple of years!

Fourth: I truly am sick of being told how tired I look. It seems like I get this comment from strangers alot. I know running around with my two kids all day long takes it toll on me, but I ignore it and when you bring up, then I start to get mentally tired!

Fifth: Why do so many women dress up to take their kids to school? Even back in VA, the women at our school didn't doll up to drop your kids off at school! Joe even made the comment that they must be the "Real Housewives of Boerne" LOL! Now I feel pressure to dress up to take my kids to school so I'm not that young mom who doesn't know how things go around here. :( Ugh. I would like to just stay in my PJ's and get ready after I drop them off! I know I could, but I don't like to stand out in the crowd, even though I usually always do with looking so young, but I am noticing I fit in a little better that way here in Texas.

Sixth: I hate how everyone here has a big ole truck and doesn't know how to park the dang thing!! Don't buy it or drive it if you can't handle it...or take a class and learn! You aren't suppose to take up 3 spaces near the front of the store and in middle of the aisle!! Go to the back of the parking lot at least.

Seventh: I just can't be happy, I guess. I use to complain how everyone was so unsocial back east and now here, I feel like people are to nice! I don't like strangers when I am out and about- espcially if you are male. I probably don't want to talk to you unless I make eye contact with you and initiate the conversation. Please stop trying to gab it up with me when I am just trying to get through the grocery store or taking a walk or asking me a million questions when you figure out that I am not really from here. You usually get borderline or completely nosey! ( I am pretty nosey, so I can't really hold it against them)


Ahhhh, I feel a little better :) I am having one of those days. I know you all know what I mean!
