Like a Grape...


  I know that I haven't been on here for over a year almost two! But I feel like I have some stuff to say now! Maybe if I pretend that someone is listening to me then I won't feel so friendless!! :-)

To all of the wonderful mothers out there, have you ever wanted to pull out your brain and put it between your fingers and pop it..like a grape? Haha! Don't get me wrong, I love being able to stay at home and be with my babies. But, it is super hard being the person I am and the personality that I have to stay at home and just talk to my baby. I know that I am not the only person out there that feels like this, right? And it's not just being at home and being a mommy, that is my most favorite thing. I love my kids more than anything and would kill for them, but I surely don't want to lose myself like so many women do.
 
  On top of it all, my husband just got a new job. He is working 3rd shift...That means that he is gone from anywhere around 1-3 pm to 3-5 am!! So basically my daughter and I get to see him for about two hours a day, then it's back to work for him. My son doesn't really get to see him until his days off, and even then he mostly has to stay on the same schedule of a night owl! Aaron used to drive semi trucks and was gone for five to six days a week, and that seemed easier than this! I did add another kid to this mix but that's the easy part!! I really have to get tough again and put it into my mind that he is gone and don't get to see him. I have been spoiled and gotten soft!! Ha!
 
  So this is my way of talking now...I guess. I will continue this project and pick up where I left off. I will come up with my topics and discuss them with, myself? Hahaha! Maybe I'll pick up my split personality that I might have in my head somewhere. "Hello Mina", "Well hey there good looking"!! Oh boy...

Loving my life,
Mina
