SAHM,Wife & Domestic Goddess

I seem to keep myself extremely busy being a SAHM also filling my days with volunteer work & going to school for AJ's holiday parties & programs.The today & tomorrow are a whirlwind of things to do..I do Pinterest online,my blog & I have Facebook.I have lots of crafts I want to finish up b4 Christmas.Outside of all that when I'm not running errands I am doing laundry,cooking,baking & straightening & cleaning the house-(I absolutely hate not having everything in its proper place).I stay busy so there's never a DULL moment..& who knows why I struggle falling asleep @ night becoz Lord knows I'm tired..lol I looked at the clock last night well this morning & it said 1:30am & here I am still attempting to fall asleep.With that said I am looking forward to the upcoming holidays & inviting over family for dinner..if there's one thing I have going for myself it's the ability to have people over & show them a good time via food,desserts,music,decorations & good conversation.It comes second nature..I look forward to it & enjoy doing it.I sat with AJ last night & was helping him with his homework & I honestly can't remember doing any of the stuff he is doing at my age.Seriously my son is in 3rd grade & they have Math stuff I don't even understand & I mean I know I totally suck @ Math but seriously?? When he was in first grade he was writing sight words & making complete sentences with them which still for a first grader I cannot recall for the life of me doing stuff like that.In my mind I recall coloring pictures,poasting things together,ABC's & just learning to count.Wow things have advanced since I was in school..kinda scary! Outside of school we go to church & I try to instill in AJ the things he is supposed to do & I try to be a good role model for him..I don't care if AJ wants to be a Janitor or a Dr when he grows up as long as he is happy,has a good heart & knows how to unconditionally love himself.I myself am not without flaws I'm a human..I don't pass judgement on people only based on their actions.If u commit a crime,live for drama or have closed minded views will I have an opinion..I will NEVER judge based on the color of their skin,age or any of that stuff.That should never be a factor in who a person is inside! OK I've rambled enough so I'll go for now..prayers & hugs to you & yours!

Life..& other things in my world..:)

Hello World,Not alot going on today...we have another busy weekend coming upon us..tonight is me & hubby's date nite & we are staying in for dinner instead of going out..I'm fixing a one dish meal called Cheese & Garlic Rotini with grilled chicken..mm! We are planning to sleep on our air mattress in the living room floor in front of the fire..cozy! Saturday we are heading to Gainesville for Jessica & Adrien's birthday 2 big birthdays..Jessica is 30 & Adrien is a year old.Sunday is church & I hope to rest that afternoon...life isn't promised to us in the next months,weeks,days or even minutes...Eddie's sister called him & told him his 44 yr old nephew dropped dead this morning of a massive heart attack..he was getting ready to take his kids to school.Check out the pics...

Recipe For Marshellow Pops: Put icing of any color on top of the marshmellows or dip them in melted chocolate & then put colorful sprinkles on them & put a stick up thru the bottom..simple & yummy! Prayers to u & yours!
