School, life, and truckers being disrespectful

Image
I haven't been blogging lately because I'm at the end of the semester which means FINALS!  I did get a B in my baking final.  I think I will get a B in the class overall with my extra credit.  Thank God for math resources I found online.  Thanks to that I will at least get a B(maybe an A, haha).  I don't think I remember ever getting anything above a C in math! I also was preparing for weeks for a baking competition that was done at the school.  We didn't win but it was fun baking!  They wanted us to be dramatic, they wanted it to be similar to the baking competitions they have on Food Network.  I decided to talk about how my husband deals with PTSD and he is a trucker and gone a lot while I take care of our 3 kids.  I am not sure when they will show it but on the other hand I don't know if I want to watch myself either! So, after all this craziness my husband decided to call me this morning at 4:30 a.m. to tell me another truck...

Truckers and Respect

I decided to start vlogging and I thought that my first vlog should be something that should be addressed.  If you like it, comment!

Hilarious

I have a 3 year old so you know that at that age they tend to say some off the wall stuff.  I have so many words and phrases that this kid says that you just tilt your head and go, "What??" He's potty trained now so when he goes #2 he insists that I look at it.  I think its a boy thing because my oldest did that too when he was his age. Him: Mommy come look at my poop! Me: *groans* Do I have to? Him: Yes, there's a lot! He also loves to mess with my husband on FaceTime.  They will call each other a baby or he will get our son to say some off the wall phrases.  It is a never ending cycle with this one. I am sad that he's our last but happy because I don't have to potty train anymore! By the way, if anyone knows how to do Mama Kat's link properly let me know because I've been trying to fix it!

One thing I need to mention

Image
I wanted to let my readers know that I will NOT be blogging anything political or anything that would deem offensive. I don't know about y'all but I will get into a blog, even follow their Facebook page because I like what they post, then when election time hits, they want to start in on their views, their opinions, and what they think.  I really didn't like your page to know what you think about politics. I already have liked the pages the people who talk about politics and that have the same viewpoints as I do.  I like mommy pages because of the humor, the ideas, and the information that relate to the topic at hand. Some of my favorite bloggers have rubbed me the wrong way when it came to election time and I was really going to stop reading their blogs but I had been such a fan for so long that I just ignore the posts that I don't really care about. This is a blog about my life as a mom, wife, student, and future pastry chef! :)

Finding side jobs

So I've been on and off with this site called Fiverr .  I have made some decent money since I started last year.  It's a great little side job especially if you have some experience in virtual assisting, singing, voice over, and so forth.  I started a new gig today and will see if I get anyone to hire me.

Not everyone's cup of tea

Growing up I was the awkward shy one.  I was the one who got in trouble for reading while everyone else was in trouble for talking too much.  Fast forward I now talk too much and read very little.  Since my dad was in the army I didn't try to make many friends, the ones I did make, I kept.  As a matter of fact I still talk to them thanks to social media. When I became a teenager I only had a handful of friends and I wasn't popular with the guys.  I didn't have a boyfriend...(unless you counted a guy I met online and dated for a couple of weeks and broke up because he was too busy with college, yep, I was a senior in high school dating a college guy!)  After I met and married my first husband I tried to make friends wherever we went, I didn't care who, I just craved  wanted friends.  I was fake, I faked who I was, how I was, just to have friends.  I wasn't the real me.  I also was one to gossip and gossip to the wrong people.  ...

Freedom

Blog prompt was from Mama Kat (I can't figure out how to do the html part, its been forever since I've done it!) 5. Share something you miss from before you became a mom I do love these little buggers! I miss the freedom of spontaneity. When I was first married, my husband at the time was stationed in Germany and was gone about 95% of the time in the field. The army had him gone every few months so I took full advantage of it and saw everything I wanted to see. I had gone on trips to Amsterdam, France, and the Black Forest. We were going to go to England and Italy but didn't make time to go. My dad was also stationed here the same time we were so I went on trips with my mom and sister also. I had made friends who had children and they didn't go out much. I didn't want to live like that. I actually didn't want children, ok a part of me did, but I enjoyed my child free life. My husband at the time talked to me about having kids when he came ba...
