Back in the hood

Thanks to everyone for the hip-hip-horray.
My first week back to motherhood was not what I expected. My baby (Matthew 13) went off to camp for a week and I was not prepared. We packed well at least tried to pack. I think I get the trophy for the worst packer EVER which makes me so even more thankful I married the
B-man.....off he went to scout camp

Well the Lord has his ways of making me forget missing my boy. Get a call from work letting me know that they screwed up and tell me I don't have health insurance...ha sick joke I thought. Figured I would deal with it the next day...sick joke for real got some nasty bug that put me in bed for 4 days without knowing what day it was when I woke up ... and he was home.

So my game plan for this week of "back in the hood" get the kids in order. What was I thinking. They ran the house for the past week and now I expect to take charge.

1st mistake-getting rid of cable the day after I am alive again...what was i thinking no nick&disney...what is life with out spongebob and wizards of waverly
2nd mistake- taking the playstation, gamecubes games to Gamestop to declutter the home
3rd mistake- expecting to get back into the hood after 6 months...lol

Calling it...shout out...hip-hip-horray


Made an executive decision based on the following criteria:

1) Full-time working mother of 4 is just not for me
2) Johnnyboy's sad eyes every time I say I have to work today is killing me
3) Money isn't everything
4) Happiness comes first
5) Summer-time is meant to spend with your kids not at an office desk
6) The company will survive with out me (although I was nominated for call of the month, thank you very much)
7) Home needs order
8) Comfort from above knowing I am doing the right thing....priceless


Last day July 8th...didn't plan for the "8" thing you know it just happened to work out...freaky
