Couple new pictures....Yes, I know I suck

This cat puts up with more shit than I ever thought possible. It must be the extra extra extra layers of fat that keep him from feeling much pain. But of course the lovin he gets is pretty good too.

My beautiful babes for once not beating the hell out of each other. Um yeah, that lasted all of 5 seconds. Long enough to take this picture.

P.S. I added a new recipe on my recipe blog. Recipe Share on my links list.

Ay yai yai!

I've been a bit of a mess lately. That is actually putting it lightly. We've been having some issues around here at Casa Loco and I really have no clue when we will be back to "normal". I've been trying earnestly to potty train Jack and while my efforts have been very rewarded in the pee pee, the poo isn't coming along very well. I've been told by numerous people , including the pediatrician, that this is to be expected. So I expect it but that doesn't make it any less frustrating to have to wipe poop off of everything a couple times a day. Plus we just got over a pretty nasty stomach bug in which the poop flowed, literally, like water and I have to say that I do not enjoy cleaning up watery poop. I had the flu, you know the kind with fevers, body aches, chills, sneezing, coughing overall shitty feeling when BOTH kids got the stomach bug. Now I have the stomach bug. Really people, Lysol is a waste of fucking money.

On the bright side, I quit smoking. It's been a month and things are going really well. I've been taking Chantix and I have to say, it's a wonderful drug. Jack is talking more and more. So many words are learned daily! It's pretty crazy to finally be able to decipher what he's saying. I'm loving it!! Chloe is doing great besides trying to adjust to some major changes that have taken place around here. It's been hard on all of us but I know it's the right thing for us.

I really don't want to go into detail about this major change yet. I'm not ready to openly discuss it and I certainly am not ready for any internet criticism. I'll just say it's been a lot to handle but we are all doing ok.

I hope everyone out there is doing well!

Strange things happen out of the blue sometimes.
I checked my email today and had a message from an old old friend. This girl and I were imprisoned together at a Southern Baptist Children's Home for I believe, 2 years. Anywho...she found my blog, left a comment with a link to her blog and she sent me an email. Yay. Hi Niecey!! You can visit her food blog Veggie Tables. All of the recipes look amazing and I can't wait to try some.

Also, Becca over at the Smoochy house popped out another beautiful baby. A precious little girl. Go give her some love!

Where am I exactly?

I have been on a blogging hiatus lately. Not something I intended to do but any inspiration I've had to write has been quickly been lost. My mind has been a jumbled mess of shit I can only aspire to sort out. So...there has been nothing.

I feel like I'm being put through the ringer these days. There's only so much one person can handle. You know, sometimes I feel like I must have sown some really shitty karma in my past and it all likes to come back to me at one freakin time. Fuck karma.

On a lighter note. Jack is almost, almost potty trained. And he just turned 2 last Wednesday. Whew! 80% success rate in making it in the potty is alright with me. The poop is a whole different story and one I can't bring myself to talk about yet as it is still a HUGE fiasco. My little boy isn't a baby anymore. He is big and only getting bigger and damn! He's such a handsome little bugger! Miss Priss is growing. Again. We just bought new clothes for her Christmastime and she is almost grown out of them. The child isn't 5 yet and she's about to start wearing size sixes! WTF!! She's so tall and so beautiful...I'm in such deep shit.

Ok...update partially complete. Love to all.
