Why a blog?



This is the second time I am writing this because last night while I was posting my Internet, phone and cable went off during , literally during when I posted and lost half of my stuff. Thanks cox, I didn't even know I hadn't paid the bill. Sound familiar?? To boot I realized this last night at 3:00 am while our precious little Georgia politely decided to not sleep from 2-4am. Rick is usually the one to get up with her but if she is not cooperating we take 30 minute shifts and so I decided to check how brilliant my blog was when I realized the frickin Internet is off. omg It had better saved. No luck!
First I have to clarify something I wrote about the "vodka" incident. I just got back from my girls trip and when we were unloading the car some water bottles got divided up and i put them in my fridge. Sooo no it was not my teenagers trying to sneak vodka, actually it was one of my 40+ friends that did. Still don't know who it belongs to but Rick did enjoy some on the rocks last night so thanks!!
So..... why a blog? Well As you all now I have been obsessed with reality shows for years...My first brush with getting close was the show "trading spouses" that didn't work out because I got pregnant for number 4 and actually the show was cancelled, moving on to Oprah Winfrey was doing a show on high security prisons and I was going to spend the night with four other normal women and talk and interact with prisoners...............Well I got pregnant for number 5 and they were not comfortable with that but I was literally put on stand by to fly up to Chicago and take part in the show. It all happened and ended very quick,,,,Then there was a close call on the amazing race and of course my latest obsession The housewives of New Orleans..boo hoo

I thought this was it for sure, it started in November of last year when I had my first chat with the producer, then it all snowballed into this huge audition process where I had to stage things and film them and pretty much film everything during the holidays and send it in to him.
Then I had my face to face filmed audition and I thought I nailed it, he acted like I did too!! Now it was a waiting game but in the mean time it got out that I was definitely going to be on it and I must have been asked, "did you make it?" a thousand times. Just the thought of making it was fun so when I got the call that I did not make the last cut I was upset but life went on and I got over it really quick especially when no one else I knew had made it either!!
I think my biggest reason for wanting to be a "real housewife" was due to the fact that everyone kept telling me your life is like a reality show, oh my gosh you should be on a reality show, and I thought my daily family happenings were so frickin funny that it would be a trip for the world to see. Evidently the producer, who said your family is perfect for the show, I love the connection you and Rick have and blah, blah, blah at the end did not think so.
So I was thinking if I'm not going to be on the show I still really need to document my family follies so everyone can get a kick out of them and It would be like a journal for me as well.....hence the blog

I offended a couple of people yesterday and I am sorry but if you can't take the heat please get out of the kitchen. This is my life for real. Speaking of that I have to say that today I actually had to get out of bed after the kids got out of school because SPX had a mothers day May crowning deal with church, crafts, and picnic lunch. (Oh Mary We Crown Thee With Blossoms Today...it makes me cry) I mean it was fun and all and I love being with my Millie BUT come on I think I spend way enough time with my kids, mothers day isn't until Sunday anyway.I loved church and picnic but I am so sick of doing crafts. Millie is up my ass 24/7 and actually I always tell Nicey If I could literally shove her up my ass she would be in heaven. She would actually be with me all of the time and she would luuuuuv it!!

We had a first day at Lakeview park and I was running to the car to get Money of course and Millie was holding Georgia when I got back Georgia was screaming and I thought she just wanted me, 5 minutes later Millie goes Hey mom you know Georgia's face fell in this crack. I'm like WHAT? What crack? this one in between a big roll of turf and some plywood. she fell off my lap and her head was in this crack. Rick was behind her in the batting age with Cameron and he very nonchalantly says, Yep she fell in the crack. Holy crap I was gone for 30 seconds.
Juicy was sitting there and laughing telling Millie "You re so stupid!" that really helps juice

After picking up Quints car which was in the shop again for a flat tire, broken mirror, piece of bumper missing on the front, broken fog light, and broken wind shield wipers, yeah that's it, we got home and had meatballs and spaghetti. It was a big hit with them all!! Watched 9 by design and Glee which are my Two new favorite shows. I should say tried to watch my shows but Bella was in rare form begging me to smell her feat. Pleeeaaassee Mommy they don't even smell bad. I refused and then I caught myself saying, "Rick please tell Bella to stop humping my leg!!!" What an awesome day!

FYI Rick was 100%alive and willing Monday night and it was all I would hope it would be and more!! I won the bet... Well deserved because we were celebrating that night because my incredible hard working husband left his job with the bank and flew the coup and is going to do it on his own. So please send all business his way, as we know he is the best at what he does! I love you Rick

I cant wait to write about my girls trip which I will do tonight with pixs.....
Adios on this Cinco de mayo
