Life and Times of a Mommy(:

Snow Day!

It started some time late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. Ice. Sleet. Solid sheets. Everywhere. And on top of that there is snow. So of course, schools where closed today. The plan was that I would stay home from work today with the youngest and the oldest would go to my grandma’s. For the most part, that’s what happened. The only change was that about 8 o’clock this morning, hubby walked back in the house. I was surprised and asked what he was doing home. Apparently his work was closed. So I get to stay home with him and the youngest!! Wooo!! It is March third and I am at home because schools are closed because of snow. Ok Mother Nature, we get the point. You can do whatever the heck you want. So can you want to make it spring now? Personally I’m sick and tired of the cold and the snow. Thanks, you’re the best!

It’s official. We’ve entered the terrible twos with the youngest. He hits, he spits, he throws fits. The only thing he doesn’t do is bite. Well. At least not a lot. He’s got a spanking a couple times today. Whenever he gets spanked, he hits back or spits at you. Which causes his daddy to laugh. This of course makes me even more mad. He shouldn’t be laughing at him. It dosen’t help the situation. Or my headache that has popped up. Oh, and he’s also learned how to growl. Thankfully he doesn’t do that when he is mad.

I would make this longer but my computer is about to get thrown across the room because it keeps glitching and freezing and I have this weird add bar at the bottom of the screen that I can’t get rid of…. And I’ve kinda run out of things to talk about that isn’t whining about my kids. So. Have a great week everyone!

Day Two!

Okay guys. We are on Day Two. Something you love about yourself. Hmm. Well That’s a tie between a lot of things… My hair, my eyes, and my personality.

My hair. When it’s long, it’s a glorious almost perfectly straight mass of chocolate brown that get highlights in it if I’m outside too long in the summer. When I curl it, oh my goodness, guys. Its GLORIOUS!!! It’s AMAZING!!! I used to have to put half of a huge can of hairspray in it to keep the curls, then it was all crunchy and stiff. Then. I curled it and just left it alone. It was amazing!! I had soft, beautiful, long curls! And when I combed/brushed them out? Hello porn star waves!! (Oh lord… I can just see the interesting search terms piling up now…) But now that it’s short…. I can either flip the ends under or let it do it’s own thing. Which  results in hair going EVERYWHERE. I have a mini Mohawk f baby hairs along my part that stand straight up and the ends go out, under, up, to the left, and to the right. I’m telling you guys, everywhere. I want my long hair back…

My hair was not this red. But it look like this...kinda...

My eyes. Now these babies. I have never seen eyes so finicky in my life. The can go from blue, to green, to gray, to blue/green, to blue/gray, to greenish/blue, to gray with a hint of blue. In a day. It’s so annoying. Although, on the plus side, I can wear just about any color eye shadow and look ahhh-mazing!!  I’m telling you guys. It’s great. Do a silver shadow on the lid, with a light white under the brow, a liner of dark blue or black, and some thick black eyelashes and you are good for a night out on the town, dinner and a movie, or just a day at work!!

Not my eyes but pretty ones (:

My personality.  Well. You guys have seen enough of it to know that it is a VERY bubbly thing! Amirite?! Amirite? I mean, there are times when it fluxes, but for the most part, I’m a super bubbly, fun person!! And I’m bright!! Like bright colors and high lighters!!

BUBBLES!!!!

BUBBLES!!!!

One last thing guys!! It’s SNOWED!! In May. In Arkansas!! I’m pretty sure this means hell has frozen over too!! Like the night before last I was laying in bed in a t shirt and undies about to die because I couldn’t sleep because I was so hot!! Then last night I was in sweat pants and socks, under a thick fleece blanket, cuddled up to my heater of a husband!! It was crazy!! Two nights ago I was sleeping with the windows open!! It’s craziness, I tell you, CRAZINESS!!! 

So how’s the weather were you guys are?!     (Guys be glad I edited this first and didn’t just post it.. My typing skills aren’t worth crap today! And guess what?! It’s FRIDAY!!!       WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!)

Letter to the Snow Falling Outside My Window

Dear snow,

I’m not sure if you realize this but it’s March. March. Not November, or December, or one of those months months that ends in ary. It is spring. Time for flowers and rain and green grass. I’m pretty sure I speak for most people who are sick of wearing jeans and sweaters and thick boots. (I mean I wear jeans all year round but I mean some people like shorts.) We are ready for sun dresses, sandals, and peep toe pumps.

Now, I understand that Arkansas weather is very unpredictable. But, come on! This is just RI-freaking-DONCULOUS!! I mean, I’m not ready for scorching 105 degree weather, but I’m definitely over the 60 to 29 to 50 to 30 to 70 degree weather!

So please stop falling. Until a month that ends with ber. Like the cold, brr, December. Get it? Good!

 

Sincerely,

One cold momma!

 

 

P.S. If you do insist on falling, snow, please do so as long as it’s enough for no work, a snow man, and a good snowball fight! Thanks!!
