Well, I just have a few things I want to get off my chest so sense this is kinda like a little journal for me here it goes.... Today at work we had a shift alignment, it went off your hire date. So needless to say I'm heading back to grave-yard, I start it Sunday night YUCK!! I only missed day shift by 3yrs. Yep you guessed it, it totally sucks!! But I'm trying to look at the bright side of it, We won't have to get a sitter & the kids won't need to stay over at gp. & gm.'s any more.(except when James & I need a little get away) And the best part is I get a BUCK more an hour, that's a total bonus in it's self, cause if you know me you know I love $$$. And one other thing is that I will be here every morning to get my kids off to school & they are both happy about that!!
Now for the fun stuff....I just wanted to write/type a few cute things Kobe said last night, he is so full of it:) We were at the corn maze & when we were leaving just out of the blue
he says I know what seniorita means I say you do what? he says a HOT CHIC in Mexico
And then he starts laughing his bum off, what a kid!! Then we are driving up the hill by Taco Time & we see this kid walking on the side of the road & he says look there's a hippy. And a said a hippy? He's like yeah, he says do know what a hippy is? It's someone who wears their pants so their butt crack shows and then bust up laughing again. He is to funny, I love this little guy:) I don't know where he comes up with all this stuff, but he says he learned it from Carson???
Then today I was taking somethings to Becki at work, and I had Maddi just run in. When she was going in a couple was heading out they looked kinda older & the lady was first and Maddi stopped and held the door for her. I thought what a good little girl, I was so proud of her and I told her when she got in the truck that she made a good choice & I was proud of her:) One thing I don't really enjoy is kids that don't have manners, so I always try to remind my kids to say please & thank you and watch for ways they can help others. I know that we will always have room for improvement, but for now it looks like it is paying off:)
Thanks for letting me vent!!

Oh man Mandi, I am so sorry that you have to to graveyard. I feel really bad for you. At least you can see the positives in it though. Maybe is won't be the best for you, but maybe it will be the best for your kids in the long run.
I really hope its not so bad on you.
Mandi,
I found your blog off of Janieces.
I hear you on the graves thing...I "qualify" for day shifts but found that (unfortunately) the night shift really does work better for my family. I just hate the next day...when I don't get enough sleep and feel like I have the flu. Which by the way-where do you work now? Reading your blog made me think of and remember our nursing home days. I loved working with you.
Hope everything works out okay!
SO are you saying you dont like my kids cause they sure don't have manners :) Just kidding but I totally know what you mean, and sorry about the graveyards, that sucks, I would hate working nights....and I laughed my butt off at colby, he is so much like Braxton its not even funny..those are totally things Braxton would say :)
That sucks tootie that you're always having to change shifts. Sorry :(
SORRY FOR THE SHIFT CHANGE! I think you are an awesome mom you are always looking for the positive in everything you do. By the way I am pretty sure Kobe gets is funny sayings from his mother you are always making me crack up. And for the manners you are doing a fabulous job with the manner thing and teaching your kids. Way to go Maddi you are a sweetheart to think of others.
oh man, your stories about Kobe are hilarious! What a funny kid. And what a sweet thing Maddie did by opening the door. She is such a sweet heart!
