Why in the world does Alyssa choose to start getting sick right before:
A) Either a Wiggles Concert or the Disney on Ice?
B) A holiday (either Halloween or Christmas)?
Because she did these both! In October, I paid big bucks to go to Wiggles. Everyone is excited, then the day before, Alyssa gets sick! I still take her to the Wiggles because, well at $40 a pop, I'm not going to lose out on $120 worth of tickets!
Then right after was a Halloween party and Boo at the Zoo. She had to miss both, because she was still sick.
So that brings us to tonight. Disney on Ice! We are PUMPED! Excited! Can't wait!
We drive there with my best friend and her daughter, who also bought tickets. We get out of the car.
Alyssa's tummy doesn't feel well. And then it happens. All over the parking lot.
Now, she doesn't want to go in. UGH! Yeah, well because I'm such a mean mom, we still go. I then have to take her to the bathroom half way through because she doesn't feel well. Yeah, again! Of course, we still stay.
On the way home. Tummy hurts AGAIN! UGH, not good!
And tomorrow is her pre-school Christmas party where she's supposed to get a gift from Santa. And tomorrow night is my best friend's daughters party at Chuck E Cheese.
Friday is daycare Christmas party and Sunday is my big family Christmas get together.
Last year at Christmas she was flu sick too.
What is it with her and holidays?!?! They literally make her sick to her stomach!

Bad week
A friend of mine watched a Dr. Phil episode where the family's father had gone to prison. The mom told the children that adults have rules and their dad broke the rules and he had to go somewhere that was going to teach him what is right and wrong.
While I'm not so sure about telling my daughters that yet, I have told them that he has gone away for work and he won't be back for a while.
I'm struggling. Being on my own is hard. Being on my own with two young children is even harder.

I'm struggling. Being on my own is hard. Being on my own with two young children is even harder.
My oldest daughter is having a tough time without her dad. She broke down two different nights last week crying for her dad. This just isn't right to be dealing with the emotions for a four year old. My heart breaks for her. I'm having a hard time, because I'm left alone to have to deal with a four year old and these emotions.
Last week was a bad week. First it was the door, then the coffee pot, then the kitchen faucet, then my phone line.
I called the phone company and it was going to cost me $150 just to have a technician come out to look at it.
Luckily my friend's husband was able to come over and look at it and fix the line for me! Then, he fixed the door AND replaced my faucet!
This is the same man who had to walk me into my house because I drank too much at my company dinner. And SHE says he's a pain in the ass! I think I owe him something, maybe a small gift card somewhere!
I'm not going to make this into a long post, as I could (and probably should), because there is a lot of explanation behind what is going on. My emotions are all over the place and I've had a long 9 months. I'm already exhausted and I've got 3 more years to go.

More broken things
It's been 17 days since he's been gone.
The side screen door broke on Tuesday.
And just now, the kitchen faucet handle broke.
Crap.
Damn It.
Remember, mommy doesn't like broken things?? What the hell to do now??

Mommy doesn't like broken things
Why is it that when I'm not paying attention for two seconds, my two and a half year old will break my coffee pot? Now how the hell am I going to wake up in the morning?!?
And this is after I told her when she broke the refrigerator lock that mommy doesn't like broken things. You'd think she'd learn. Jeesh.
And oh how I HATE that my children can get in and out of the refrigerator whenever they feel like it.

Blogging, Take Two
I'm trying this blogging thing again. Mostly for therapeutic reasons. I don't have time to see a real therapist, so I'll just vent and bitch here and hopefully that will help me to not choke my children while they fight over anything and everything.
There's a lot to the back story and I want to tell it, but right now I'm really tired. It's almost midnight and I was determined to get a new blog post up before I went to bed.
I will say that my life has been recently turned upside down. It's not what it was a year ago and I'm facing many struggles in which I know I'll get through, but damn it, they are tough!
