Pssh-Pssh people




        Do you ever have random strangers ask you random questions? I usually answer them back with some random bs  sweet motherly comment or keep walking because I have more things to do than get stuck in a long conversation with a random stranger. 
             Here are a few of the many questions I have been asked.

Did you Have all those kids?.. (eyes wide open)
Nope! I went to the super market store and picked them all out. 
  Yes, I have 4 children and they all come from my body.

Did you plan/choose to have two boys and two girls?..
Why yes when I went to the super market doctor he asked what preference I had. So each time I said Girl, Boy, Girl, Boy lets make it even.
 I am sure You know the real answer to this question.

Where is you husband? (yes people ask this)
Who, what? I told you I bought these kids at the market why would I have a husband!?! 
  He is usually at work during the day and sleeping at night or trying to get ready for work bc he has to leave home at 4:45-5 am everyday.

Are you done?!? I honestly answer this one; Yes! cut tied and burned. 
I could never afford any more kids and am not in the mood to call TLC so I can build a bigger house. 

Where are you from? Umm here...  
For some reason people think I am not from the south? I guess if I don't sport any camo or have Alabama signs on my car so they can't tell.

How old are you? (This is when I have no kids in tow just the baby with me) Old as dirt lets see I have an 11 year old so I can buy this rated R dvd of Halloween but I have no clue of my age. Can you do math?  

Why does she talk so much? (Asked about me from those '"Pssh-Pssh" types to other random people sitting next to them)   SECRETS DON'T MAKE FRIENDS! 

     I don't really mind people asking questions because heck, how are you supposed to learn anything if you never ask anything has to be better than the "Pssh-Pssh" people.

Am I the only one?


   So today I unfollowed a person on twitter. I feel kind-of bad but I could honestly careless. I did it for two reasons, #1 everyone thinks she is a blogging god and quite frankly I think she is boring and fake. You know those fake people who are always happy about nothing or always sad yet have everything in the world. And #2 is she has a stupid real name. Yes I have a problem over something so silly but it is true. I have around 7 names that I will not be friends with. The crazy thing is not just one person has screwed the name up every person I have ever met with those names are like that. It kind of reminds me of this>>


Am I the only person like this? I also tend to have a good number of friends with the same name as me or my sisters. People I honestly never even knew their real name until after the fact. Maybe I am just crazy..

Someone Please press pause

    Gosh this month will not slow down. I remember this time last year I was begging it to pass, I was so not feeling Christmas while on bed rest. But now it seems like there are not enough days in the month to get everything I want done. Between the kids going to school and hubsy working we can never seem to get time to spend together. So this weekend I tried to work on that and finish up my shopping, which is done. (Yay!) Saturday we made ornaments and a gingerbread house and Sunday our goal was to watch as many Christmas movies as we could. Except with one sick kid I didn't too get much of that done. But I figured I would share some ideas on how have fun this holiday season without going broke.

1. Have a popcorn and Pjs day! Dig out all your old holiday movies keep your jams on and be lazy!

2. Bake cookies with the record player(or ipod) turned up! Memories of moms or dads yummy Christmas cookies will never fade.

3. Email Santa. You can print out his response as a keepsake then spend hours on the site finding more fun things to do.

4. Make a gingerbread house. (I know you can make ginger bread on your own but the pre-made kits save a little time. They are around 9 bucks at Michaels and every week they have a new coupon for 40 to 50% off one item.)

5. Take a car ride! Take the whole family for a ride around your neighborhood and look at all the pretty homes at night.

6. Have an arts and crafts day; make popsicle stick reindeer ornaments, felt mice or just cut a few trees from construction paper and let everyone decorate their own tree with glitter and sequins or crayons and stickers for the less messy version.



7. Have a cleaning party! Yes we all have heard our kids cry and say they hate our parties but encourage everyone to look through their toy boxes and closets for things they have grown out of. Then call your local church or shelter and give them to a family in need of them. (Those boxes on the side of the road never make it anywhere without rain or being picked over.) Plus Santa can't bring toys if you have nowhere to put them.

8.Check out your local parade or school/church event. I have missed most of those this year but husby has taken the kids they always have so much fun.





That is as much as I can think of for now but please feel free to add your ideas in the comments!
