I went on to read one of my fav blogs and she had this celebrity look-a-like thing done so of course I HAD to go to the site. It had a who does baby look like more? Well, my answer would be her daddy since I don't think she looks like me AT ALL.

The results they came up with are surprising to me.

It's friggin' hot!

Damn, do you see the temps for the Inland Empire to the left? Jesus, it's going to be a scorcher here! I am glad I am going to San Diego tomorrow but then I'll be back for the rest of the weekend where it's going to be hotter than hell. Ugh, I am not looking forward to that. I sure do miss living in SD...

Allow me to be a whiny biotch for a moment

Ok, you know all these great reality shows that are coming out as of late? Well, I wanna pitch one to a TV network about "Westpac Widows". Anyone who is married to someone in the Navy knows what this is. Actually, why stop at the Navy? It should be "Temporary Widows Cause Our Husbands Are On Deployment in Some God Awful Place Really Far Away". Is there an acronym for that possibly? ;)

(This is what the sunset looks like where DH is at right now. He says there's tons of dirt in the air and it's totally nasty. Another reason I probably shouldn't be complaining....)


I really can't wait until R gets back in Nov. Simple things are not so simple anymore. Making dinner, laundry, keeping the house somewhat tidy, going to the bathroom, getting a drink of water, breathing. Ok the last one there's a joke but the rest are not & I know there's more but it's like 11PM and I am tired.


I wonder how I manage to stay sane most of the time. When you're used to having someone around to help out w/ the kids, it's great. Until they gotta leave. Then it sucks ASS. I think I am being whiny because there are awesome single moms out there that NEVER have the help and here I am complaining. Or moms that are going through much worse things than being alone temporarily. It's just that my job can be very demanding and w/ no family close by to rely on, it's an added stress. I was told today that there'd be another big round up of people needing to be arrested soon. My mom cannot fly out again so soon. My aunt will be gone until Nov. Who can help me? My coworkers will not understand this situation. Enough about me.

There are people I know of---blogs I read that are dealing w/ much more harrowing stuff than I am but I can't help but think I got it bad too. My heart really goes out to 2 blogs I read tonight. Christine and Jessica---my hugs to you. For real. Jessica, I wanted to comment on your last blog post, but I just don't know what to say except my heart is broken for you right now. Christine, Brody's mama---is just a saint. My tawdry complaints about being sidetracked from doing what I need to do since Sam is so demanding of my attention, seem so unimportant right now. I kinda felt the need to complain about my problems and then at the same time disqualify them for what others are going through.

I just don't know what else to say...

4th of July plans

I decided to be brave and take my kids to Sea World in San Diego this Fri. for the 4th by myself w/ no other help. I haven't told my step son yet, I kinda want it to be a surprise. I hope Sam likes it too. Even if she is only 21 mos. old.

I think I am more excited to go than my kids would be if I told them. We're going to see a couple of shows and eat a meal while watching. Sounds fun. The other cool thing is that because of DH, we get in for free (military stuff)! Now, the shows and such have already cost me over $100, but that's still less than spending an extra like $80 or whatever it is for tix. At least I don't have to rent a car, buy plane tix or get a hotel. We'll be tired at the end of the day, but it'll be good for us! I mean, damn we got 2 more days to recoup before work/school, you know?

I also got my kids a bounce house thingy. It's not one of those huge ones you can rent, but it's big enough to fit my fat ass and one of my kids in there at once. :) I am excited to show it to both of them and see their reaction. God, Samantha is going to LOVE this thing for real.




Guess that's about all. Oh yeah, I am still a dumbass. I haven't put that extra key outside yet. I am really in for a hard lesson if I don't. I plan to BBQ again tonight so I'll get it done before that I swear! Ha ha....
