It has definitely been a while since I have blogged, and God knows I miss it! I am in the process of writing a book, and if all goes well one day you will see my picture along side of my pen name on my book. A lot of people have asked me what I am writing about, but for some odd reason I find it bad luck to divulge such information, kinda like it being bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding....hmmm, that explains a lot! I love writing, it has been an outlet for me, I am not much for chocolate, sex or small talk, so writing has helped me get through a lot of lifes ordeals. As a Mom of many, five kids to be exact, three that are triplets, I must say that I have a lot to write about, they give me a lot of ammo to put into words, and with that comes a lot of tears: tears of joy, grief, and well....stress! Being a Mom is a lot like finding out there is no Santa, you knew the stories were too good to be true, yet finding out doesn't change the result, I mean who cares how you get the toys as long as you get them!! Being a Mom is sorta like that, you have all these fantasized expectations of what being a Mom is like, but when that moment actually gets here, you realize, it is more exhausting than you ever could have imagined, but it doesn't change the result, being a Mom is worth every exhausting moment! I can't tell you how many times I have been thrown up on, hair pulled out of my head, been elbowed in the boob more times than I can count, how many times I have eaten leftovers off my shirt from the kids crumbled cookies or spilled bowls, the sleepless nights.....oh the sleepless nights, getting roughed up from breaking up fights, sore feet from stepping on various toys (dang, that hurts): the cleaning of numerous gummy bears being licked and stuck to the walls, cleaning up the toilet paper that clogs the sink and toilets, wiping off mirrors that look as though the toothpaste tube had been slaughtered and the spatter of toothpaste DNA echoed across the mirror, how is it that toothpaste spatter can travel so far, sounds like the next science project! Anyway...being a Mom is tough, you get no respect, no pay, no sleep, yet we still find it more gratifying than any job out there! Are we crazy, have we lost our minds.....nah, we are just Moms, and well, Weezers! So like eggs on a griddle this is the flip side of our lives! :)
