I'm One Of Them

I'm one of those moms. I will be the first to say she was an idiot for having him on her lap. Seeing him in the car seat really irked me and made me cringe. No one is a perfect mom. Far be from me to even think that I'm a 10 on the mothering scale. We all make mistakes. Naturally, she's going to be under a much bigger microscope than me but come on. I have fallen on ice with my son in my arms whilst incubating the Peanut. I've fallen down stairs with either of them in my arms. They've fallen down the stairs. Remember those stairs of death? If I was watched for every dumbass thing I've done with my kids, I would be embarrassed beyond words. The girl tripped on her pants. It's happened to moms before and it'll happen again. Britney's problem (one of them at least - I can't get started on K-Fed, there's not enough space on the internet) is that all of her mistakes are culminated together and makes her look like a shitty ass mom and I honestly don't think she is. She's with her child a lot more than most celebrities with kids. I don't recall seeing a nanny holding him. Speaking of nanny, wasn't it the nanny who was with the baby when he fell out of the highchair? I can't believe I'm saying this but, I think we need to give her a break.

For now.

She'll do something much better/worse next week.

My husband and I took wagers on which of the twins would take the stairs of death first (sick, but true)! there were only 6 of 'em ( we lived in a split level) but shit happends and it was inevitable. When we went out, the posse rolled as a team unit! Twins in the wagon and the baby on my back/front. I had velcro sneakers on, money in my pants pocket and cargo pants with crackers in them... I am laughing now, but I never did F.A.O./ Toys R US / or a sitdown restaurant w/o the hubster...It is safer at home in the controlled environment.Britney needs to stay her ass home and raise her child, not look for photo ops at toystores and restaurants...I don't dispute her love for the child but enough is enough! She knew she was cannon fodder for the media BEFORE she had the baby so did she think that she was given a pass because she is pregnant again?!

The only thing that bothers me in this mess was the report that Brit was seen leaving a venue (restaurant, I suppose?) with baby on one arm and a glass in her other hand...

Made me wonder what was in that glass, I guess.

This Has To Be Said

I haven't blogged in 8 months. We bought a house, still unpacking, school started. You know, life. I felt the need, the urgent need to blog about the Adrian Peterson situation today. I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks. My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were. Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all. Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well,

Get Your Motor Running

Something fabulous happened this week. Glorious even. Spectacular. Heaven Sent. (ok that one may be stretching it a bit). I am no longer a stay at home mom with the potential to go crazy because I can't get out of the house with the kids until the husband comes home from work and that could be 1pm or 6pm, it's a crapshoot. My husband has to drive all over the Twin Cities and the surrounding areas to see his customers for work. We have a gas guzzling Explorer that I love (minus the whole gas guzzling part of course). He's put a couple thousand (maybe three or four) on that thing since starting his job in Nov. I was griping to my therapist about how I feel trapped at home. I'm not me anymore. I don't know what I like anymore if it doesn't involve one of the kids. I hated that this was happening. Wow, I sure do go on tangents. (My ex once told me that he has to run mentally to keep up with me conversationally. So true) Last week, we up and got ourselves this bad b
