I wanted to create this page as a safe place where I could post real stuff.. You know, the raw unedited parts of life that I wanna shout about but was too “self aware”(more like worried what people would say about me) to do it on my own page..

Life’s hard! Paying bills and working and being a mother…the standards by which one is judged now days is awful….. I say alot of s**t ton cuss words and I am not the perfect mother! I go to Church on some Sundays, but am new in my walk with Christ.

Far too often we get into the habit of only posting the good parts of life! Well, thats what I do anyways! Oh my won an award POST, got a promotion POST, late on my bills to buy groceries HIDE, my 17 year old son threw up in the back yard bc he came home drunk🙄 HIDE..
I dont hide these things bc Im pretending or because I am ashamed. I hide them because Im not proud and it’s not your business… doesnt make me a fake “perfect” mother or pretend perfect person! It makes me an adult, and just because I do things differently than you does not make me any less or more than the next person!
I haven’t been using this page the way I had hoped to! Hell I haven’t used it at all so I wanted to touch down here with this post and say that you dont have to be the perfect Mom, Wife,or friend… You just have to try to be the best version of you for today!

The begining of school marks the a lot of new beginnings for people. I have always wondered why its not a national holiday…. Its like new years in a way!! You get to set a bunch of new goals, buy a bunch of new clothes, and walk into your first day at school being anyone you wanna be! It doesn’t matter how good or bad your summer was you get a fresh start at a year full of blessings and new beginnings! We need to celebrate our kids and let them enjoy the new! They need to know how lucky they are for all they have and teach them to be kind! Not all kids are lucky this time of year!

Being a mom is such a roller coaster of emtions.. It’s actually really hard keeping tiny humans alive and training them to be good productive adults.. but raising teenage kids isn’t only hard enough to cause a full on drinking problem, it’s lonely. Nobody talks about that tho! It’s not the kind of lonely where ur alone ya know, its the kind of lonely where your constantly surrounded by people. Your always on the go. Work and then home, but only long for maybe an hour before heading off to a game or a practice of some sort, just so that u can get home at 10/11 pm and that is where the real s**t hits the fan, because even though you just ate on the way home and it cost you $52 to feed everybody you still have to fix something to eat because somebody didn’t like their burger or it had pickles on it or they didn’t have barbecue they only had ranch with their chicken nuggets and now you have to manage to bathe 4 kids get them in bed feed and water all the pets get laundry done for tomorrow and let’s not forget about little Sallys soccer uniform that never got washed because it was in the bottom of the duffel bag in the back of the car underneath 14 other bags full s**t…
Oh and tomorrow school sports picture day so you can’t let little Sally wear the dirty uniform to play the game hell no she has to have it washed because it’s time for pictures which remind you that you forgot to send back the packet so now you have to get online and order $212 worth of pictures just to pass them out to your family and friends, because believe you me you better not forget one person or grandma Becky is going to call Aunt ”Karen” and before you know it the whole damn family stirred up about the picture you passed out and missed three people on…
It’s the kind of lonely that you can’t fix just by being around people… I kind a lonely where you need adult friends to sit and visit and have adult conversations and ask you if you’re OK and help pick the cereal out of your hair! Its hard and us Moms need more support groups that arent based around the lives if our children!!!

Its nice to put a name to so many feelings..

So I’m a mom. Clearly right ^^hence the name! Also Im mostly hanging on by a thread. That’s where the manic part comes from I suppose! I have an overabundance of children, dont get me wrong I am glad I have them, but 5 is a s**t ton of kids to deal with every day. Their ages range from grown, too still small enough to be called a crotch goblin! I love my kids, all of them differently, yet all of them the same. Its an amazing thing, being a mother. You spend the first part of your childs life trying to keep them from falling down hovering them to the point of no return, and then you spend most of their teenage years wishing it was socially acceptable to push them down! Kids will make you happy, crazy, and criminally insane all in one conversation. You spend so much time as a mother wondering how your gonna survive it… the late nights, the early mornings and all the choas that comes throughout the day! You make it through sports teams, grade cards, school dances.. you read self help books and spend time with other moms trying to figure out what your doing wrong because trust me… your feeling like you have made a s**t ton of mistakes by High School age, and then your kid graduates! Bam- u think ur prepared for what comes next but your not! You can never fully be ready for your baby to leave you. Everyone keeps telling you s**t like; your fine; its not far; college isnt the same as moving out? What? Shut your mouth and shut it now… because my baby is leaving!!! She is chasing her dreams and she wont be back! Of course she will visit. She will be home for summer and everything will be fine until its time to go again! She is moving out folks and let me tell ya, this isnt one if those kids that leaves and gives up- this is one of those over-driven, over-achieving, one of a kind kids!! Her goal is more than a goal, its her future. Its not about if/ its anout when she reaches her goals! So Im holding on now but only to the memories bc my baby is not a baby anymore!

I made this page two years ago and never made a post..
I wanted to create an open forum where I just talk… talk about life and what gets people going.. talk about work and kids and adult friendships and their importance.. I just wanted a place where I could go and tell my story…

BUT…

Its terrifying!! Everyone does this.. mommy blogging or youtube channels.. I dont wanna be famous I just wanted a mask where I could be raw and real and not be judged by my community bc I live in a small town and that s**t happens..
So today I take the leap I jump neck deep into the reality I hope becomes something spectacular!!

Im saying hey!! Im here and I will be back to tell the world about all the things I wanna say.

Stay Tuned!
