Must create

I have had writers' block for weeks and it's driving me absolutely nuts!! I've tried all the normal things that usually tear that wall for me, but they aren't working this time.
Need inspiration NOW!!

These truths I hold to be self evident...

1. I love my son more than anything.
2. I hate my job.

The. End.

The best Mommy in the whole world

These are the words that make my heart melt. Just call me 'puddle'.

What makes it even better is when it's spoken for absolutely no reason.

Seriously...

The. Best. Feeling. Ever.

And how cute is this picture of Darth and his best bud 'the Bry Pirate'?

Love. It.

D.S. rules

'nuff said

A picture worth one word...

So I've been bummed that Ryan has been wisked away to Disneyworld, leaving his pathetic mama behind.

But tonight I saw the funniest thing. It made me laugh so hard I nearly pissed myself.

Shane, Ryan and the 'rents went to dinner tonight at 50's prime time. We went last year and personally it was one of my favorite eateries we visited. Shane thought so too so he made reservations again this year.

Well they treat you like your children there. Not in a 'let mama spank you' kind of way....but in a 'granny says get your damn elbows off the table or i'll tan ya' kind of way.

Well Ryan calls me and says that daddy got in trouble for drinking too much soda.

This was the result...

Now I know it's not the finest quality, but it brought me more joy than I can say. Seeing my soon-to-be-ex-husband in a paper cap is worth more than a thousand words.

But since people who still like Shane might be reading this blog, I'll narrow it down to one.

DUNCE

Now if you'll excuse me, I must go find the last bottle of Resolve spot remover since I have pissed myself all over my big fat comfy recliner.

Thank you and goodnight.

Stuck at home

Well my little man is on vacation with his father. They went to Disneyworld (as mentioned in an earlier post) and are spending the entire week with my dad and step-mom.
I'm jealous.
Shane has been sending me pictures and keeping me updated daily as to how much fun they are having. I love seeing Ryan's face...he is having the best time EVER!!
And I wish I was there.
Shane did ask me, but to be honest I would feel beyond strange spending the entire week with him. Like kissing my cousin strange.
So I sit here waiting until Thursday when I can see Ryan again and let him tell me about all the wonderful things that he did with Daddy, Pappy and Grandma.
I just hope it doesn't sting too much.

Mommy just doesn't make as much money as Daddy

I really hate those words...more than I hate the words, "It's just a little spider."
But I find myself saying them more than I like.
There are many injustices in the world. One of which is the fact that Shane makes three times the yearly salary that I do.
So it's with deep regret that I don't have the luxury of taking my son on the coolest damned vacation ever...Disney World.

What kid wouldn't think their parents the best in the world for a vacation like that? I want to take Ryan all over the world, mostly I want to see him smile.
But there is no possible way I could afford a vacation like that. No way.
I can just afford the bills that I have and I'm not living high on any hog.

But I swallow my pride as I'm telling Ryan that he'll have a wonderful time in Disney. That him and Daddy will be too busy for him to miss me at all.
And what does that little guy say back to me?

Ryan: I'm sorry you and I didn't get to go.
Me: I know baby. Someday you and I will get back to Disney together.
Ryan: No, I mean I'm sorry we didn't get to go to Tennessee on our vacation.

*snif*
Here I am feeling sorry for myself that I can't afford to take my little man on glorious character filled getaways and he's apologizing to me for not being able to go on the vacation that I could afford.

I love my little man...even if his father is a complete ass.
