WOW I should look in the mirror before leaving the house!

If you are like me, a mom, I am sure you have looked in the mirror at the end of the day only to notice that mysterious something in your hair, on your shirt (thinking gosh everyone has been staring at my boob all day, cause I have something on it.....nice!!), in your teeth, on the side of your nose, or on your butt. Because you were to busy this morning making lunches, warming the kids clothes in the dryer, because it is cold and the kids get the snuggly warm feeling when there clothes have been warmed in the dryer (yes I do do that!), cleaned up the spilt Orange Juice on the carpet, started the car so it is warm, made your husband his to-go cup of coffee, reminded the kids for the ump-tenth time to put there lunches in their back-packs, warmed up a to go breakfast because of course no one wanted to get up in time to eat breakfast, remembered "oh crap what I am going to throw on, will anyone notice I haven't showered?", stepped on a race car, cried a little, gave the kids there vitamins, took a look around.....but forgot to look in the mirror. Well I have, more than I would like to admit. I think I am starting to develop an underlying self esteem problem now! I am terrified to get out of my car, knowing I am sure I have something stuck somewhere and everyone is going to laugh at me!Yeah, that's me.....Traci mom to 2......well 3 if you count my husband! I love to write, and why not do it about my everyday life of being a mom, it is funny, a little inspirational, and most of you can relate or not, who cares. I am sure there is a million of these sites out there, but hey I have to try to get a hold of this self esteem issue, so I am going to say "well there is no one like me!". WOW I feel better......a little. So I am doing this site, or whatever it is called, for me to write, you to write and comment, and for all of us to have fine and dandy time. Let me just clarify a few things: I am a terrible speller! I know there is spell check and it is my best friend, but spelling and grammar are not my forte.....changing diapers, making beds, making lunches, holding throw-up buckets, wiping butts, noses, mouths and hands.....now that's my forte. If you feel the need to correct me that's fine, but you are doing it for yourself because I am not going to listen, nor do I have the time to go and fix it. :)

The Talk... great new show

I love this new show!!! And  will be blogging about some of the topics..... here are a couple if anyone wants to comment....


Bullying.......

Just got done watching The Talk & todays show was on Bullying. I know that when I am at the school on recess duty I make sure to pay attention to what is going on & when I saw bullying 1 time I confronted the kid & as I was talking to the child saw right through his tough guy image. I literally saw his face change fro...m hard to soft. He understood when I was talking to him that maybe some other kids arent having such a good day or time in there life and we can help them by talking to them instead of picking on them. And he got it. He is one of my favorite (besides my kiddos) kid on the play ground. Along with the proper punishment, we need to talk to our kids, explain to them WHY it is wrong, not just that it is wrong dont do it. Here is a book they suggested on the show today... "Queen Bees and Wanna Bees"

Tweens taking Pole Dancing Classes......

McDonalds Fries Have Beef Extract

Even though it is a small trace they use before they freeze them and then cook them in veggie oil, they still are made with Beef Extract.  And I am sure vegetarians would be greatful to know (like me who ate them last night)  that they may want to for go these yummy treats :(  I am saddened cause I love those fries.....here is a link to the article www.commondreams.org
