Tuesday night

Many of you know of the stresses I have encountered this week...On Monday I thought it was going to be a really grim week. I had a lot of guilt and unanswered questions. I prayed over and over for peace about the situation. I slept SOOO good monday night (though it was not expected) and woke up with so much peace and a different outlook on things. I thought it may take a while for this peace, but it was almost immediate. I didn't know what else to pray for, but that was what I needed.

(Jesus said:) "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." (John 14.27)

Tuesday was a long day that ended on a great note. I was invited by Jobeth to attend LNO-Ladies Night Out. Hollie also went with us. I met such a sweet and special lady (who by the way has 6...yep one more than cinco). She talked about the heart of a child. I learned so much and already have tried out some things with Brock...and Jeremy. But the main thing I got out of it was that God put me there...that night...one night after a stressful and an event I was unsure on how to handle. I know He is guiding me...if I will listen. I also realized how thankful I am for my family and my precious gift (Brock). When you need Him, He is always there...Just listen for His direction.

Not Me! Monday

Here we are again...finishing up a Monday...So here goes my NOT me Monday...

I am not sitting here watching another football game while Jer is not in a TV coma...

Brock did not cough all the way to school and he didn't blow out green snot while coughing. He does NOT sound pitful as he coughs and I do not wish I could just cough for him.

I am not freaking out because his halloween cosutme hasn't shipped. I am not ticked because I ordered it a week ago and haven't even got a email stating it has mailed yet!!! Oh no, it is not located as far as possible from our state...No, not the opposite coast line.

Brock's mom will not cry when she sees how uncool his made up costume will be.

Okay...there it is. I am not, not really not, doing the Mr. Linky thing because no one did it...You can find the rules from Not Me! Monday at My Charming Kids Blog!

Just realized...

Just realized that I changed my comments so they don't automatically come up, I had to moderate them...so thanks! That was another reason I wasn't bloggin'....I THOUGHT NO ONE WAS READING!

'

Yep..I'm still alive!

I've been in a blog drought. Here's why:

-My child is cutting ALL 4 of his "eye" teeth (the sharp pointy ones...man that junk is gotta hurt) AT THE SAME TIME. Just in time for Halloween! He is the same child who wakes up off and on each night only to find the next morning a sweet present poking through the gum. Not like the whole tooth, but just enough to let us know it is there.

Also, with each tooth comes the best preset. First, GREEN snot...thick...stringy and lime green. I swear it would stretch across our front yard! The kind that looks like Nickelodeon's Double Dare kind (you know you watched that show as a kid!). In addition to the green mucus that streams downs his face all day, HE HATES TO HAVE HIS NOSE WIPED! So every five minutes it is a fight to get the snot off his nose, so that it doesn't reach his mouth and provide him extra protein!

But it gets better...Yeah....appreciate YOUR child if they wake up and you're like Hummmmm you gotta new tooth..How long has that been there?

Second, loose stools that occur three to four times a day...Yep and you know what else accompanies loose stools...DIAPER RASH! If you know my kid, you know he is known for his SUPER sensitive skin, so imagine his diaper rash today (mmmm'kay). I could keep him in a bubble, and he still would get some kinda rash , somewhere...But at least he likes to get the poop cleaned up, right...NOT EVEN. Now he runs from me when he sees I have a clean diaper in my hand. Then it is like a wrestling match as I try to clean up poop, apply diaper rash junk that don't even work and move the poopy diaper far enough away so that he doesn't grab it.

So see that's why I haven't been posting, feel my pain now?

Also, since I made my bloggy private for personal reason (most yall know) I feel like NO ONE reads it...Is it harder to read because you have to log in or something?

Happy Fall Yall

Not me Monday!

I believe that it does a woman so good to be completely honest, so I will attempt to do so every Monday. This may be the only blog you get outta me! My charming kids has a very addictive blog because her kids are too cute and I love her posts Not Me Monday! So since my blog has now been made private, I feel I can be honest so here goes:

Last Sunday night I did not cry because I didn't want to see my first born drinking his chocolate milk, watching TV and cuddling his "bobble" anyway. I didn't mind having to get up, throw him in the car half asleep and haul it to the next town for my J-O-B. I don't mind doing it everyday!

This week Brock will not throw himself very slowly down onto the tile and then begin to scream like a wild man because I did not have to pee after being in a classroom all day. He will also not blow out snot bubbles because his cold is not coming back for the 3rd time.

I did not gripe about cooking dinner that takes one hour and Brock will not drag out every item in my kitchen while I am cooking. The meal did not take 10 minutes to scarf down only to be left to clean the kitchen again.

Brock's hairdresser was not 20 minutes late for his appointment and he didn't scream the entire time while everyone in our small town didn't take pity on us having to deal with him.

There was no way that I left school early to meet the termite man, who is not very expensive, only for him not to be late and for him to not show up at all.

I did not write down my four dinner menus for the week so I will not remember what to cook. I did not fore-go the list and fix whatever was easiest.

I did not spend many hot and tiring hours only to make a few bucks at a garage sale.

I do not read HT's blog for a daily pick me up.

My wardrobe for last week was not planned around whatever I had to iron.

I did not spend my classroom planning time to write this blog because I don't have a thousand school related things to do. I will not goof off and waste valuable time.


I didn't love writing this post and I don't want to see yours either! ohhh...I am not completely unsure of how to do the Mr. Linky thing...so don't bare with me.

Official Rules are here.

You'd be proud...

You should be very proud of me and my very constructive weekend. It started Friday loading up a BUNCH O JUNK for a garage sale we had Sat. at Grandma's. I got there with Brock on hip about 8:30 and worked until about 4pm. Garage sales are SOOOO tiring... But we got rid of a few things and made a little money for Christmas.

Saturday night we watched the Gaytors beat LSU...By the way Urban..don't you know its rude to run up the score....But I did love the fact that Tebow had Philp. 4:13 on his cheeks ( I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. KJV)...What a great role model. I tried to fins a pic of him from last night, but I stopped looking after I found this....too funny. Is this real??.... mean the picture!

Sunday I did some grocery shopping and played the grocery game....Yep I did. I saved about $52.21! That was the most I have saved so far. When I got home I put up the groceries, and then became even more productive. Instead of laying on the couch like my better half....I got out my black spray paint and painted lids to some canisters I racked up at the garage sale. Then spayed a few pic frames black too. I guess I was in a dark mood.

I also finally got my curtains in from JCPenny's and hung those up in my room and Brock's room. This is huge for me because I have been in my house for 23 months and just putting up curtains. I told you have ALWAYS have good intentions.....I'll post pics soon.

Well this is SUPER long post, so I will end it quick...KBO OUT

New Title

I think I am going to call my blog The Bi Monthly Boatright Buzz. I can't seem to get into the habit of keeping up this blog...I had really good intentions, but by the time I read certain blogs, I don't feel like typing mine. The newness has worn off. This happens often in my life. Examples:

-Running-going to start again for the 3rd time with HT. Maybe a partner will help
-Turbo Jam-successful for about 2 weeks, haven't done it since
-Vera Bradleys-Cute two years ago...OVER IT
-Bleach Blonde hair-now I like low lights
-Cleaning-I started this thing where I would spend 10 min every night cleaning something...well you know what I am doing now...NOT CLEANING
-Flowers-I always buy some, but never water them and they die.
-Grocery Game-Said I was going to play, bought the subscription, but never really played to win

I guess you could say I have the best of intentions.......with ALOT of things!

I will try to update...if not...well if you know me then you should know what to expect by now!
