Im still here - barely

Saw a news clip on Fox 5 this morning about a local family with ten kids. They said the hardest transition for them with all the kids was from having two kids to having three.

YES.

Im hungry

But eating at 4:49am in the morning is a sure way to reach 200lbs by the end of the year. As it is, Im watching the weight pile back on and am not happy about it. I plan not to let it get out of hand, but so far I haven't come up with a way to halt the gain. Except not eating.

But Im hungry allllllllllll the time. AND food is a de-stresser, and you can imagine the amounts of stress these rugrat boys cause me on a daily basis. Sooooooooooo.........

It doesnt help that I have cookies and ice cream sandwiches in the refridgerator.

Dont worry, Im gonna be good....if only for this moment! lol

WHY havent they come up with this yet!?

Im sure this is an official sign of my impending descent into insanity, but on the way home from the store today I was thinking to myself....why isn't there such a thing as DIET MILK?! With all the things you can drink you would have thought people would have come up with that already. I know its not much different from diet soda, and you have fat free milk already, but the calories are still there. And you cant put soda in your cereal in the morning.

Yea, I know, Im losing it.

On the bright side, these are my adorable kids in one SINGLE moment of adorableness that's supposed to last me for the week:

I hate Verizon

One of the bloggers I check on a regular basis has a thing for lists, so I'm stealing her strategy and making a list of what happens when I finally get back on line from a week without access to internet. All that is VERIZON needs to burn in hell.

1. Check my gmail.

2. Marvel at all the wonderful emails I have to go through.

3. Check to see if any of the emails have anything to do with money.

4. Hop on the emails having to do with money (respond in kind, process, send back info, etc.)

5. Check all my regular potential money websites to see if anyone has posted anything of use to me.

6. Check the bill websites to see when the bills are due.

7. Pay anything in imminent danger of being cut off

8. Check to see how much money I have left (usually about two cents)

9. Finally read all the non-money emails left, turn on my trillian and talk to friends.

10. Check peoples blogs for updates

11. Check my fun pages
