hey world!

Hey world! I am very excited to start this new venture with you all. First off, I have no clue what I am doing. I have never blogged before,so there's that .  What I do know is that I absolutely love to make the people around me laugh (I m so freaking good at it) I am almost always inappropriate in the best possible way. Anyhoo,  I am lost and confused and excited and giddy to share my life and stories with you all .I hope the chaos that is my "average" life, will make you laugh until you cry and feel "normal" about your average life .I hope we can all support one another and encourage each other to be the best versions of ourselves that we can possibly be.

the noodles

So I read this article online this morning from another blogger about choosing parenthood over career advancement .Essentially it is about working to sustain your life but not over achieving to get that big promotion or raise so you can have a better home life and time with your kids. It is choosing to not invest your all into your job ,but to your family. Obviously, most people have to work. I work full time as well as my husband. I was able to stay home for quite a while with kiddos and I'm so very thankful to that. Going back to work was exciting and sad for me. Excited to have adult conversations , loosen the purse strings and have time outside of the home .Staying home is so very hard. There is no pay, you are over worked, your bosses are mini little tyrants at times and you cannot say screw this shit and quit.So its challenging. But for us , my kids are a little older now and this is what is working for my family. I was also Sad for obvious reasons. I loooove my kids. I am s...

From Palm trees to Pine trees...

          As most of you know by now, we have moved ACROSS the dang country. We traded in the Palm trees of South Carolina for Pine trees of Northern Oregon. Part of it was our own design, part of it was we were put up against the wall. The town we lived in, was a magical slice of heaven on earth. It is a breathtakingly beautiful place to live. However, it is a very hard place to work. The decent-paying jobs are slim pickings. And if you lose said job, the next one feels impossible to come by, Its the price you pay for living in paradise I suppose.           We have always talked about moving out west. To give it a go. My husband is from there, and his family is all here,  and that's one part of the country we haven't yet lived in together so why not? There are a lot of jobs in his field here so there are a lot of pros to our decision. We listed our house and that sucker sold in an instant. Now I have moved enough in my life...

my new favorite 3 little words.

                SUMMER.IS.OVER. I won't even waste time and have you read for 5 minutes before you wonder what they are. SUMMER.IS.OVER.  I am so very thankful for those 3 little words. I am losing my shizit. Some woman are cut out to be home all day with the kids and they are happy to do so. I am,to a point, then I feel like I'm losing it. Im over the summer . OVER IT.         I Looooooove my babies. I can often be borderline obsessed with their cute little selves. I am with them all the time , 24/7. I am thankful and very grateful to be able to do so, but at the same time, HOT DAMN! The bickering, the fighting,the constant entertaining. The disgusting heat of the south this time of year can give you a case of cabin fever. Which, by the way, does not help with entertaining kids who like to be outside and on the go ALL THE TIME.        I would be lying if  said I wouldn't miss them at all. But...
