Giving Thanks

I wanted to take a moment to be all sappy and thankful. Don't worry, I'll be right back to being a bitch before I can click "Publish Post."

I am thankful for:

My children
My job
My friends
My amazing intelligence :)
My house
My car

Not in that order, necessarily. It's been a tough couple of years, but I'm thankful that I came out on top.


I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and if you're reading this.....I'm thankful that you're interested. Now-let the festivites begin!

Ciera Vivian Marie

Today my firstborn turns 15. That child that I was too young to realize I was too young to raise......

And now, here we are. She gets to go on dates. That was the rule. She could start dating when she was 15. Of course, I never expected her to actually get to her 15th birthday. I mean....really. I had to sit on the child to make her sit in 5 minutes of time out. Then I realized spanking her butt was much less effort but still rendered the same result. That would be.....nothing. She didn't give a damn either way. Then there was the time she thought she might fight her Daddy. We can't forget the whole "screw you" incident that I was sure was the end-all. But after all of it, she's alive. And 15. And has DD breasts.

I hope we make it to 16.

Hmmmmmm.....

Life........

I love being an empowered woman. I love being the mother of crazy, loud, beautiful, independent daughters. I love being sexy and important and loved. I love being intelligent. I love.

I'm amazed that it took thirtysomething years for me to figure out the little bit that I have finally figured out.
