Memorial Weekend = Tired

I had an okay weekend. Not even close to the joy and entertainment some had with swimming, bonfires and alcohol. I was the sole parent to my son for 3 1/2 days. I love my son, but he does not listen to a word I say. No matter the time outs, it is a constant struggle to do ANYTHING. This weekend was no exception and so he wore me out everyday. I am glad it is Tuesday for two reasons...#1 I get a break from my son, #2 It is already Tuesday so this week will go by fast!! Hopefully tonight I can get in some t-shirt making..I'm dying to make one already! I bought the stuff for it on Sunday and only got the t-shirts washed. A beer after work sounds nice, it's just the right hot muggy temperature of 90 today. Sit out with the boy after work and enjoy a cold one. Cheers!

Ear Infections...I hate

DS has an ear infection of the obnoxious variation...you know the kind, it keeps you up all friggin night! We were up until 3am last night, crying and crying. First it was his ear, then it was just upset crying, then it turned into I want to play and you won't let me...and then the tantrums began. Oi Vey, what we mamas do for our children. I feel like a complete failure as I was alone with this poor kid and I was loosing my ever loving mind! I called baby daddy and he came over at 3am to help me. Of course the dear child went to sleep then, but whatever. I got 4 1/2 hours sleep and that is something to be thankful for. I just feel like a failure that baby daddy had to save the day. I'm on one hand just thankful he for once came thru but at the same time it stings a little that I didn't think I could do it myself. I have kind of prided myself on doing what I had to for my boy no matter who or what didn't work out in my favor. So calling HIM just kinda sucks. It also stung when I sat there this morning watching our "family" watch TV and laugh together...seeing what could have been...seeing what my baby could have had. His mommy and daddy in the same house. It's been an emotional and exhausting night and morning. At least it is Friday and I can get a quick break while hopefully DS gets some rest and comes home feeling a tiny bit better.

I'm BAAACCKKK! :)

Sorry guys I have taken a little hiatus. I broke up with my boyfriend of a year and a half, moved out and have been recovering myself and fixing my sons broken heart. It's been a rough few months but I am feeling so much better and i'm so much happier these days! Woohoo!

There's a new guy in town and he's fabulous, he treats me like the princess I am!!! Double woo hoo! :) Today I actually have a guest post and I will be back tomorrow with some extra special things!!

Gold Rush Alaska is an Adrenaline Rush

Authored by Greg Fletcher

I have enjoyed watching Gold Rush Alaska from the first episode. This show features a group of inexperienced, debt-riddled Oregon men seeking fortune in Alaska. Every episode has commanded my undivided attention as these men attempt to overcome obstacles in the path of their mining for gold.
I was thrilled when the show became available for me to view free On Demand. My job requires me to travel often which prevents me from watching Gold Rush Alaska when it airs on Discovery Channel. I am grateful to have the luxury of watching this show on my www.direct.tv when I return from a work trip. I am so eager to see the progress that the miners are making, or failing to, that I don't even unpack my belongings before watching Gold Rush Alaska for free On Demand!

Never having seen the show before, my boyfriend watched an episode with me last week. He's now as interested in the fate of the miners as I am! With the show free On Demand, I'll enjoy watching episodes a second time while my boyfriend catches up with the show's current content. It's great!
