Happy anniversary... or ...?

Today is exactly 19 days from my 3rd anniversary and I have been thrown for a loop because I cannot get what I was planning to get for hubby. So I am stuck and not sure what to do for him. I promised him an Apple Notebook by Sept and he is finally getting it today, but that is so technical. Not that Hubby likes romance or surprises, but if I cant plan something special it just takes out the fun of it all for me.

I usually have things planned out at least a month before, and I usually go extreme. But this time with finances at a low, and no car, I cannot plan a getaway or even just get a high tech device. So where does that leave me now?

On top of all that is holding me back hubbie is a really hard person to buy for. He does not want a new phone, and he does not go to the theatre. He brushes off romance and needs for nothing really. So thing leaves me with the ?, do I just buy something sexy to wear and dance for him or make him a splendid sushi dinner. I am definitely not as talented as Samantha in Sex and the City, and with two kiddo's, there is no way in hell that I am laying on a table with sushi covering my body, although that could be the one thing that he probably fantasizes about...lol

So here I sit, wondering if giving him something with me and the kids pics AGAIN would be enough or too much. I get my best ideas while under pressure, so who knows what I come up with?!

Dream On?!

So I have been bragging for the past 16 months that Aunt Flo has decided to give me and axteneded holiday since I was pregnant for 9 months and have been exclusivelly breast feeding for the past 7 months.

Just two days ago I was talking about how great it has been to not have to worry about damage controll and the terrible cramps that accompany her.

History:
Aunt Flo and I have a very bad relationship since our very first meeting at the tender age of 11. I had already gotten educated about it at school but did not realise that it would eventually happen to me.

I remember waking up that morning and went to the loo, when I wiped, what I saw made me want to faint.

I was bleeding in a place where there has never and was never supposed to be blood. I was surelly dieing!!

I called my mom and she came to check what was going on. I quetly whispered "There is blood in my panties", and I saw relief in her face. Being old school about these things she took me into my room and said " You have gotten you period, here is a sanitary pad, put it in your panty and dont tell anybody especially the boys about what happened" .

Maaa!

Mummie,

From the first day I was born, you worried about me. My education, my future and my
life consumed your every thought. You are always trying to make provision for good schools
and trying to help me speak properly. I see that family and friends give you a hard time because
you are trying so hard to make us good citizens in society. And now that I am almost 4 years old
and almost all grown up, I can see that what you are trying to do is good for me. I am sorry that you have to worry about A's eyes and deal with my needs (wants) at the same time. I am sorry that I will only realize when I am older that my tantrums made you think you did something wrong.

I just wanted to ask you to take it easy, relax and enjoy us. We are safe in the Fathers hands and it is His job
to protect us and your job to love us. We are doing well thus far and we know that you only have our best
interest at heart. I would like you to just have fun with us and leave worry for other people. You are my mommie and I want to enjoy you for as long as I can.

Remember that I love you Ma!
