GG where are you?


As you can see from the title your usual WTF Friday is not going to happen today. Why you may ask... because yesterday I had the second coming of Sybil...That's right Sybil*.  Throughout the day GG went through 8 different personalities in a 6 hour period. I don't know what happened when the personalities decided to take over but yesterday had to be one of the most tiring days I have had in a long ass while. GG {personality 1}was fine from 7 until 10:30. When we were done with the errands I needed to get done we got home put on on our hiking boots to take dog 1 and 2 out for a hike. Personality 2 came out during the hike. Instead of me pushing her on her Kettler bike she decided she wanted to push it which adds 1/2 to the walk...fine no big deal...beautiful day we can deal......I am throwing the dogs fetch toy so they can get a good run while watching GG who is struggling up the steep asssss hill. I go over to help and she throws a complete hissy fit.

"GG do you want mom to help you out with that?"
"Noooo I got it I got it" with a snotty tone in her voice struggle struggle struggle 

Fine you got it I am walking - as soon as I walk away she begins crying a cry/scream I have never heard before - I called this little event the coming of personality 3.  I am sure that the neighbors thought I was torturing a cat it sounded that painful. Just as soon as she started the scream it was over I say 5 minutes she figures out how to get her bike back on the sidewalk we move on and we are done. We get through the remainder of the walk without problems....Ok except for the part were she decides she is going to take the bike down the steep hill without waiting for me and she tumbles and fall with the bike on top of her....she was good with that one she brushes herself off and continues. Personality 4 hits me as I walk back into the house huge huge amounts of love from every direction.

"Lobe you mommy lobe you". OKayy then I like this part.
Have lunch and personality 5 and 6 combine. She is on super bitchy not listening have to call her name 18 million time before she does what I tell her to do- why is it that all toddlers have selective hearing? It is time for a nap.  Currently I have to physically put her down for a nap because if she does not by the time 5 comes around she is a friggin nightmare. We now call this the you better take a nap or mommy is going to snap time.  I get her all situated get her Mickey Mouse cartoon on her Ipad and she is asleep in 20.5 seconds. Yeah!!!!!!! Mommy gets to breath. She is out for a total of 1 hour and 45 minutes...Score bitches. I pay some bills,  catch up on some blogs, start prepping dinner, fold some laundry menu plan for next week and just chill for a bit.  GG starts to stir on the couch because  I have now learned were a toddler falls to sleep is were she will remain. She is stirring and she is in this half sleep half wake state which means for the next 50 minutes I have to listen to a complete supersonic size temper tantrum. I mean this was the worst it was like she was in a trance. I tried to calm her down but the more I tried the worse it  got. So I just let her be.  At one point I started vacuuming yep I did.  After 50 minutes...snap she was back GG looked at me said color mommy, color and it was done. WTF just happened? I felt I was put through the spin cycle.
By the time 5 hit I was done. My husband took one look at me when he got back from work and without saying a word took GG upstairs with him while I finished getting dinner ready.  On days like yesterday all I want is a big fat glass of wine and a cigarette { I didn't do it though}. I know this sounds bad but their are some days that just kick your ass and yesterday was one of them for me. I will remain cool as a cucumber this weekend though.  Hopefully the full moon will be gone by then and things will go back to "normal" Wish me luck.


*small note I am not making fun of personality disorders/mental illness OK so back off. I am kind of sick of not being able to make a few jokes without people getting their damn panties in a bunch. Loosen up!

Yesterday it happened......


the one thing I have been dreading and not looking forward to. I have a HUGE temper and it does not take much to set me off. I however have worked on myself and I am{believe it or not} allot calmer than I used to be. But when you mess with my daughter the mama bear comes out of me and I get pissed real quick. I was proud that I did not lose my cool yesterday when I happened to spot a bully in training mess with my daughter. GG gets along with everyone and she looks forward to going to the class every week. She has been participating in this particular class since she has been a little baby. GG is a tough girl but she is the youngest in the class by almost 8 months from all the other kids. For some reason this almost 3 year old  had a problem with my daughter and a few of the other girls for she did not only go after GG but she went after another girl in the class who is an absolute sweetheart. Now as mothers who are getting to communicate with other adults the first time all week we all sometimes get caught up in our chit chat but we are always watching out for each others kids in the class. I  believe the mother of this particular...eh emmm bullyIT did not notice what was going on because I am {hopefully} sure she would have done something about it.

The kids were all playing around the gym, they had just received colorful balls from the teacher and were having a great time just hanging out. At one point all the girls{of course} and one of the boys in the class were all in a row on top of one of the gym foam thing and for some unknown toddler Sybil reason this girl tries to take GG's ball from her. GG resisted and was not having her ball taken away from her.....Then this bullyIT did not like that GG was next to her friend in the class and she decided to shove her out of the way until GG hit the floor.  At that point I could see GG was not physically hurt but this bullyIT really hurt her feelings. It started with the "lip" quiver and then she started to cry. Now I do not coddle/helicopter mom my child  and I am the type of mom who will tell her daughter to suck it up when she takes a fall however I felt for her at that moment. I went over to pick her up shot a super dirty look to bullyIT {YOU BET YOUR ASS I DID}and I am not apologizing for it either. It was not cool and I saw the look on bullyIT face and she was doing it to be mean...period. Kids are a whole lot smarter than what we give them credit for and the whole kids will be kids does not fly with me.

Blah Blah yeah yeah yeah I should not have had it get to me but you know what until it happens to your little one no one has the right to judge what you would do with your emotions in that moment. The mother did nothing about it like I said I am hoping she did not say anything because she did not witness it their is always so much chaos in that class it is hard to keep track of all the kids running around.  After she was done with GG I saw her go after another little girl...same MO. Once again her mom was so busy chit chatting I do not think she saw it happen. I let it go this week but if happens next week we are going to have a problem and mommy dearest is going to get a wake up call {tactfully of course}.

Towards the end of the class all the little ones get around in a circle to sing a good by song. Of course bullyIT sits right next to us.....She looks over and shoots me the evil eye. At that moment I realize that she knew exactly what she did WAS wrong and she was making no apologies for it. That is what scared me the most.

I am the more let's purchase the crafts kind of person...Not a a big shocker to the people that know me. Yes I am creative when it comes to merchandising clothes, home decorating and cooking/baking. Maybe a little sad but you know what oh well  I own it. I took a pic of GG's rainy day rescue kit and so far it has rocked balls. she loves it and spends quite a bit of time with the busy hand projects. I also add small snacks through out the day and she finds this to be so special. Yeah me.....

It is unbelievable......



Theresa girl love your new blog I am trying to comment but for some reason it will not let me? Shoot me an email and let me know waas up?

Now back to our regularly scheduled rant and rave 

how bad I am ready for some more space and how badly I need a backyard. I feel like sometimes the walls are closing in on me and everywhere I turn I am tripping on some ball, dog, stupid toy part and a toddler. I am an extremely organized person but even with my constant purging and cleaning/picking up it never stops.....I would love on some days just to open patio doors and let them all out. I live in a nice neighborhood but I am still in a town home so it means always always having to keep an eye out on what the dogs and toddler are doing when they are in the front of the house. As you may or may not know I am super duper cautious and completely paranoid. So I am always on guard so I can never truly relax when she is outside in the front or on the huge deck we have in the back. Since toddlers love to climb I am always worried she will get on one of the deck chairs and fly off the side.....God forbid. My so called mountain backyard is also the area of some on the best hiking trails in the area were we live so we always have people wandering around the back which makes my one over protective dog go nutty and the barking drives me insane. I got to give it to Dog 1 though she is one mean ass dog when she wants to be. Oh did I forget to mention the coyotes, deer and the wild turkey...yeah I got those to wandering the trails. Beautiful to look at not so much if the bitches attack and I know they do I have seen those animal attacks shows.

Heeere's your sign
As you know or not we have started the initial stages of looking for a new home.  Husband and I decided to take it slow, we don't want to rush into anything and want to take our time to pick out our next home cuz this time I have some non negotiables.  I am now researching neighborhoods, schools and of course the home inventory. What just bust my balls is the amount some of these homes or pieces of crap are going for. For shit nuggets for  800,000 you would think that when you bought a home you would not have to do a damn thing to it when you buy it...right....Nope not in certain areas in the state of California. For 800,000 you can expect to get a fixer upper at best depending on the area. I have viewed 1975's horror houses for 850,000 I am talking about flower wall paper hell everywhere including the damn ceiling with Liberace style bathrooms and gold friggin chandeliers....WTF? Wood paneling...kiss my ass I do not care how "retro" it is...it's U-G-L-Y and it makes me feel like I am trapped in a box...want your rooms to look smaller go ahead and do keep the ugly shit up. Vomit colored carpet that looks like it has not been cleaned in years...yep saw some of that shit to.I have had to stop watching HGTV because  get so pissed when I see that for 250,000 in some states you can get a mini mansion...were I live 250,000 might just might get you a postage size stamp studio.  I swear it gets so damn discouraging. Will it get better...I sure the hell hope it does......Wish me luck gang....and Happy Tuesday..yo

Heading towards week number 4 of the NO wine challenge...

Really...... was wall paper that popular in the 70's 
You can take the wood paneling and shove it

This is why....

instead of taking me 45 minutes to finish the damn grocery shopping it takes me 2 hours. Damn you*fist shaking* Toy Story balls and useless smelly toxic squishy toys. My child goes in a trance every time she spots you. Happy Sunday!


Feeling the love......
