Love and Sex.....

....is the title of a great movie Sean and I saw the other night on the Indie Film Channel. It was an unexpected treat that had us laughing and me crying - although that could have been partly to blame on PMS. Don't let the title fool you, it was not a "dirty" movie at all. It was about relationships and love. If you get an opportunity to watch it, definately do.

"When her rather explicit copy is rejected, magazine journalist Kate is asked by her editor to come up with an article on loving relationships instead, and to do so by the end of the day. This gets Kate thinking back over her own various experiences, and to wondering if she is in much of a position to write on the subject. "

I must be maturing...

I picked up the triplets from school yesterday because Luke had a doctor's appt. He was fine when I sent him to school, when I picked him up he looked so droopy. Turns out he had a 102.7 fever. He was on an antibiotic that stays in your system for 10 days and Sunday was day 10. So the dr. gave him another course to see if they could knock it out of him! Poor guy. So he is home today. Anyways, the doctor's office was packed! There were no parking spots so we had to park in the next lot and hike over. I checked in at the desk and took the kids and myself potty. We walked back to the waiting room through all the people and Johnny asks me "Mommy, why do you have toilet paper stuck to your shoe?" I had at least a foot and a half trailing behind me. I reached down, ripped it off, balled it up and put it in my purse. (no trashcan nearby.) In the past I would have been mortified. Okay, in the past I was mortified when this happened) but yesterday it really didn't bother me. It was no biggie. I am growing up! It's about time!!

Hey Crystal.........

The first song on my playlist is for you! It's thie first of his I ever heard and I loved it! Of course it doesn't have a great message like Kiss me through the phone!!!!!! Hope Daws is feeling better!

Loose Tooth-eses

We have big news at our house! Luke and Jonathan have loose teeth! Luke has 2 and Johnny has 1. They have spent the last 10 minutes wiggling each others teeth. Caitlin felt left out for a minute, but then discovered other fun things to amuse herself. Hopefully the tooth fairy will not be coming too soon, I am not ready to say goodbye to baby teeth yet.
I hope that you all have a nice weekend. I will probably be posting again as I have no life! :)

Dentalists....

Today two of the four saw the dentist - or dentalist as Jonathan calls him. Caitlin did super and got to choose several toys. Luke showed up for his appointment so he chose a toy. In the time it took for Caitlin to get xrays, flouride, her teeth counted and cleaned and checked by the dentst, Luke had his teeth counted. He refused to let them do anything else. They didn't force it because they don't want him to be afraid of them. Last time he cooperated and enjoyed himself. I hope that next time he will behave. The next 2 go in April.
I am borrowing my mom's jeep for the next couple of days. I don't know why she broke down and offered it to me, but I am thankful. I have been trying to manage with an extended cab truck with an eight foot bed. I am not that great at manuverability, but the exercise I get from having to park at the end of the parking lots has been good.
I am suffering from a bout of emotional eating and feel as if my weight is getting out of hand again. I think winter blahs has a lot to do with it. It is not helping my self esteem when my pants are snug. I am working hard to get the motivation back to eating well and daily exercising. I did really well for awhile, but seem to have fallen off the wagon. Stress is no fun.
Sean has to work at least 10 hours this Sunday. The overtime will be wonderful, but I will miss him! I have to go to a baby shower for my niece. I dread going. This will be her second child by a different guy. She might be 21 now, but I am not sure. This will be my 6th great niece/nephew. None of them are married and it is just sad. I feel bad for the babies - and for them.
I found out that 2 of my nephews are getting married next year. They are the 2 in the military. My nephew Cory was on duty at the inauguration of Obama and Mike is in Afghanistan.
Well I need to get cleaning done and some laundry. I hope that you all have a good night!

My dream is to someday be the Incredible Hulk....

but I think I look more Jolly Green Giant.

Today is such a dreary day. They are calling for 1-2 " of snow tonight. The kids will be happy.

Things here are going along well. The kids are crazy as always. We have once again entered the stage where nudity is preferred over clothing. It's mainly my 2 youngest boys. Caitlin is happiest in her Cinderella dress and pink bathrobe. Gabe is just annoyed by everyone and everything.

Tonight is LOGOS, so I need to figure out how to get to the church and then bring home the 4 kids as I have no vehicle. Sean and I are not sure what we should do. I am still unable to find a job, I keep looking, and a car payment is a scary thought. We also have to pay the orthodontist next month and then go on a payment plan with him for Gabe's teeth. Argh! It never ends!

I know that God is in control and things will work out. It is just hard to wait for God's time when I want it done now!

I am amazed at how fast my kids are growing. Gabe is in high water pants lately because he hit a growth spurt again. Caitlin is rarely in shirts that meet her pants as she has become very long in the torso, Luke has been growing out more than up, and Johnny is just so solid. They are going through pants and shoes faster than I can keep up!

Change is just everywhere! I guess it is inevitable, as much as I want it to stay the same sometimes.

I have been feeling lonely lately. I think a lot of it is hormones and winter blahs. I am teary a lot and can't really say why. I hate feeling sad so much! I hope that when the warmer weather comes the better moods come.

Boy, this is such an uplifting post!

I hope you all have a good day. Thanks for listening.
