Adventures with my girls

So this one is something that I am sure most ladies can relate to at some point in their life. 

Well I won't get it into many details, but when I was younger, and not married, lets just say I had my fair share of PREGGO scares! Yes Yes, I know, I know, for those of you thinking, "how irresponsible", you are darn right I was irresponsible, I was freaking young, but don't sit there and think, "Oh I never went through that." 

The majority of all young girls do, and apparently so do older women. Anywho, last week was one of those weeks, of course I am married now, and I have a handsome 17 month old son. 

So needless to say I wasn't terrified of being pregnant in the sense that, my parents would yell at me ( which actually they just still might since they are Hispanic and Hispanics tend to get upset about everything). More so in the sense that I ask myself , am I ready for the 2nd. 


Don't get me wrong, I definitely want to have another baby...can't picture my life with just the three of us, but of course that means everything changes. I guess I've never been one to truly embrace change. Things are perfect right now, both my husband and I have stable jobs, we are finally in our home (still not done), but that is ok. My little boy is amazing!!! He is the sunshine in my life, really he is! 


Anywho, so of course I tell Blanche and Sophia and my other friends in this little office that I work at of this little suspicion I have , and the next thing I know is we are driving down the east side, with Sophia honking at some east siders while Blanche and I fear for our lives. (seriously waited in the car to see where this lady was going and made sure she wasn't coming in our direction)


So we pull up to this 99cent store, and Sophia buys me a preggo test, b/c just that morning I heard from the hubby that I had over drafted, yikes ( boy did I get in trouble for that), so there we are on the east side, at a 99 cent store, in line with a preggo test that I can't even pay for, not one of my proudest moments, but nonetheless one of the funniest moments in my life, since being with Sophia and Blanche tends to be that way. 


Needless to say, they wanted me to take the test right then and there, but I just couldn't, seeing that if I was, I would want my hubby to be the first to know. Any who I go home, take it and of course it is NEGATIVE.



Hubby's response is, would have been nice to get it out of the way....(that's his way of being supportive). HAHAHA. So I figured OK, this means I will start soon. That's usually how it happens, as Sophia is all to familiar with this. I've only known her for a year and a half and keep in mind I was pregnant for 9 of those, to which her and I have gone through the "oh sophia I think I'm pregnant"....so it usually goes like this "sophia i think i am pregnant" and then thats all we talk about all day and then the next day the good ol' visitor shows up, so yeah, that wasn't the case this time. VISITOR was holding out, so there goes sophia again, taking me to 2 Dollar Trees to buy yet another PREGGO test, and this time it was taken in the DOLLAR TREE. 


Now that I write this, sounds pretty sad, but still was freaking hilarious!!!! Of course it was negative and 2 days later the visitor arrived with a vengeance might I add. 


No baby this time, then again we weren't really trying....just wanted to post this...sorry I know I rambled and it is probably scattered all over the place. I literally typed this the way it was coming in my head...so forgive me for the typos, the confusion, but I hope you got a laugh or 2 outta this, because this is definitely one adventure I won't forget thanks to my girls.

Funny what kids will say?!?!?


So we three amigos
Los Tres
Larry, Curly, Moe
Three Blind Mice
Alvin, Simon and Theodore

work with kids....
3rd graders and middle school kids to be exact....

Our personalities are a match made in heaven with the kids and teachers,
REALLY? WHY? you ask

Because we like to have fun when we WORK, which means PLAYING,
Playing kickball, dodgeball, basketball.. you name it.......
That is our job...
Are we coaches?
NO
Are we teachers?
NO
Are we Assistants?
NO
We are INTERVENTIONISTS! And that means making things happen, which includes PLAYING..

But going to the school's EVERYDAY, ALL DAY
gives these children a sense of KNOWING US??

You see, we are not their teacher, or coach....
So they think we are COOL, well at least me you know :)
So they think they can tell us anything and somethimes it can be quite depressing,
but today's post is not about that...

It's about their honesty on all things AESTHETIC...

An 8th grade boy asked me if I was pregnant?? 3 months after I already had my daughter.... BURNED
3rd grade girl "Did you wear too much make-up today Miss?"
BURNED

More examples...Not about me..

"Miss you need to eat more" (to the bulemic amiga)
WOAH BURNED
"Miss are you really a boy?"
BURNED
"Miss are you pregnant?"
BURNED
"My dad says you're a habib"
WOAH BURNED
"She said you're fat"
BURN


TEACH YOUR KIDS SOME MANNERS PEOPLE!!!!

Just kidding, WE LOVE IT! :)

I'm so not ready for this....

So let's see here. 

This is my first true writing experience in the blog world. And to be honest I don't think I am quite ready yet....you are probably thinking, why wouldn't I be ready? It's easy, just write whatever. I think writing a blog comes from whatever you are feeling. My subscriptions are probably going to be off the wall with no consistency to it. So if that is what you are looking for, keep on trucking, because if you know me any, you know that's not what I am. 

So again so not ready for this, but Blanche and Sophia think I am and have even given me ideas of what to write about it, but I am still just not feeling it, writer's block? Yeah sure lets just say that is what I am going through.

Today is an interesting day. Ever have those days where you are slightly annoyed but really don't have a reason to be, so then you just come off as being a total a hole. Yeah I think that is what today is going to hold for me, its gloomy outside and I am not really a fan of gloomy days, they actually get me in a really crabby mood, it could be lack of sleep, sleep has not been my friend lately. 

The more and more I type and post, I feel like this is all negative energy. I don't like negative energy which is why I try and fill my life with positive people, which comes back to the beginning of this post, today was definitely not the day to start my first blog experience, maybe tomorrow will be the day when I am ready for this whole new experience of blogging...

Blogging should be funny, inspirational, personable, maybe someone out there can relate to this blog somehow. If not, too bad :) 

I promise this poopy feeling you are probably getting from this blog is not me entirely, I'd say it is 1/36th of who I am <------- I figured that would make me sound smart, since the past three days I've been in a training that is mainly reserved for Engineers, and I actually understood a small amount of it....made me feel like I was back in college. Anywho...

from here on out I promise to have better blogs, more well thought out, and EVEN funny just for Sophia :) who btw is a pretty awesome friend to have in your life. Spunky and wise! Blanche is pretty cool too - divaish and sassy! As you can see I am clearly the Dorothy of this group, and I think this blog clearly displays that - the serious one of the group, who needs help  staying young and finding my true sense of womanhood....>----- wow that totally did not make sense....but you get the idea! I hope?

Lumps

I got to thinking......

About LUMPS

Lumps are in cottage cheese
Lumps are in un-stirred cake mix
Lumps in Milk
Lumps in my Left thigh (Oh wait, i mentioned cottage cheese)
Lumps in well you get it...
They are everywhere!!

This is my attempt at being
"symbolic"
"Metaphorical"
an atempt at an old wise Chinese Proverb...
WTH?

Our lives are full of LUMPS

Typically Lumps are NOT GOOD....
Um, Well, NO they are NEVER GOOD!

But, we can deal with them, we allow them to hang around or overlook them because,
well maybe they don't "hurt"
{not necessarily physically, but indirectly in above situations too}

But really LUMPS are in the way of our happiness

MOVE LUMPS!
So I can have REAL CHEESE
So I can wear short shorts
So I can sleep comfortable
So I can be FREE of Lumps...HMMMM??

Forgot where I was going with that! :)

My point is that Lumps are not good and typically it just takes a LITTLE BIT of work to get rid of them,
GIVE IT A LITTLE CHURN, EXERCISE, RUB IT OUT, BEAT IT...

And then life will be SMOOTH! :)

Working Backward

No matter who you are or where you're from there is always that one hot guy that was a part of your life. Whether it was the high school STAR quarterback or as in my situation the STAR pitcher on the college BASEBALL team (FYI Ladies: I just happen to be a huge fan of baseball...as a wise women once said (my mom) "baseball butts drive me nuts!!!") So this infamous baseball player and I crossed paths during our undergraduate studies a few years back. Needless to say he jusre left an inpact in my life...get the hint?! Well as all wonderful flings ours came to an end and we parted ways never looking back. Well that was until last Valentine's Day when we crossed paths again once more. My first thought of him was "pleasureable" memories of this old friend of mine never in my life would I have thought to even look at him as anything more...that was until recenlty.



There is one thing to note about me (the Blanche Deveraux of the group) I DONT do emotional feelings. Im not one who gets the butterflies in the stomach usually i refer that to hunger; nor do i get excited or even want to see someone everyday cause thats tooooooooo clingy and just plain not me!!!

So now that you know the past of me and mister wonderful here is whats presently going on since that V-Day; we have been on 3 real dates! How the heck does that work?!?!?! From benifical friends -> to aquintances-> to barely speaking-> to a simple hello -> to NOW dating ->

Both of us feeling that butterfly feeling which mind you I am attributing to hunger pain, heck at this point I'll even attribute it to gas.

Anyway, where this story ends is beyond me! But for now as one of my best friends said I guess I will "just go with it."
