Well hello there.

I feel like I’ve been missing a lot. I haven’t had a lot of time to be online lately, if you read my protected post under this you?ll know why. It’s been something else that’s for sure. But I am okay, the kids are okay and that’s all that matters.

Chase went to the vet’s on Tuesday. He got his splint removed. He also had an xray. He now has a Tensor on his leg with a little piece of foam holding it straight to just get it to where it needs to be - which will be 2 weeks from this past Tuesday at which time he will go back to the vets and have it taken off. Woohoo. He’s so ready for it to be off, poor guy. He is walking around in my backyard right now with a bread bag on his leg being held on by a elastic so it doesn’t get it wet LOL! It’ a sight!

Jordan has been involved in track and field for the last little while. Yesterday was the school’s big track meet. I was going to take the kids after my doctors appointment but it was overcast all day and was spitting here and there so I didn’t think they would have been doing it, today was the rain date. But they did it and Jordan got six ribbons! He got 1 for participation, 1 for 1ST PLACE! 2 for 2nd place, 1 for 3rd place and 1 for 4th! WAY TO GO Jordan Mommy is sooo proud of you! :)

I went to the doctors yesterday. I do have strep throat, again. I’ve had it over 2 weeks and was just able to get into the doctors. Hopefully the medicine I’m on will now get rid of it for a while… it’s not fun at all. Ugh.

I promise I’ll be better will blogging, a lot has been going on but I will make time! I will make time to comment more too, and have more giveaways RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!!!! Keep checking for those.. so exciting!

Right now I’m going to go check out ebay for some books. I need to read more and I can never find anything good in book stores with 4 kids attached to my side so ebay it is!

Home Theatre Seating & Me

I dunno about you but I’ve love to one day own a home with a build in screening room/home theatre type thing! Having a huge tv and a ton of home theater seating would be awesome! Especially for the kids. Who needs to waste money going to the theatre when you can have it right in your own home! I dunno, something to think about! :)

I apologize for not being very present here on my site for the last few days. I’m going through a lot at home, and if you follow me on Twitter you know what I mean. I promise to get back into it though, and start blogging everyday again. I shouldn’t have even been away, it helps keep my mind of BS. :)



What is wrong with this picture?

I’ll tell you the only thing right about this photo? Is this animal is wearing hand cuffs.

I’ve known for years this guy is a killer. A psycho, disgusting killer. I know he is guilty for whatever did happen to Natalee Holloway. Just like everyone knew Casey Anthony killed baby Kaylee Anthony. I’m beyond disgusted he’s been on the loose until now. It’s a shame really, someone else had to die before anything was done. A FBI sting took place where he walked away with $25,000 to give the whereabouts of Natalee’s body. Anyone who even tries to do that should be in jail PERIOD. Gonna lie about where a dead body is to get the money? GO TO JAIL. Really know where the dead body is? GO TO JAIL. Why was this dirt bag still on the loose?

I’ve been reading every story CNN comes out with the past few days. I’m usually pretty good at figuring things out, so I ask again… Why was this dirt bag still on the loose? No one seems to know the answer. But the answer that keeps being given is “Not enough evidence” okay, how much more evidence do you need than the taped confession that his friend got while driving Joran around in a vehicle? Or what about the fact he approached Natalee’s mother to get the money arranged by the FBI in the sting. I don’t care if it was “Private Funds” Joran van der Sloot was funded with while giving “a” loaction of Natalee’s body. The fact of the matter is he approached them, he took the money, and the told them of a location. True or not, this screams guilty. Why was he able to walk away after ANY of this? Wrong location? So what, he gave a location. Yet he was still able to walk away… Of course he’s not going to give the location of her body. It’s long gone. Probably in the bottom of the sea, or eaten by sharks. Who knows. But of course hes not going to give it up, sure lets tell for some money - and end up in jail not even able to use the money. The guy is an TOP NOTCH IDIOT but I think hes a little smarter than that.

Regardless, as of today he was charged with the murder of Stephany Flores Ramirez. From what I’ve been reading all over the place he went to the store, came back found her reading his laptop which had evidence linking him to the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.. she wanted to leave. He wouldn’t let her. She ended up beaten, with a broken neck dead on the floor of his hotel room.

If none of this screams GUILTY for both of these women I don’t know what else does. I’m slightly irritated by the whole thing… Maybe I’ve been reading too much about this over the years, probably got a lot of false information, but hey… to me he looks 110% guilty and I personally think he deserves a lot more than to sit in prison.

Who am I to say anything though? :/ I know I’m surely not alone in my thoughts though…. right?



Nuphedragen

I dunno about you but I have been taking advantage of this beautiful weather. I talk a lot about the fact I want to lose the rest of my baby weight, I’ve been doing horribly at getting rid of it but it’s because I’ve been so busy with my 4 little ones. I was searching online when I came across nuphedragen. Like I always say these types of things aren’t for me I’m doing it the old fashioned way… But if you do feel like going the pill route please do your research I cannot stress it enough!



Misikko Review & Giveaway: Corioliss Classic Pro Flat Iron

I’m so excited to have been given the chance to review this Misikko: Corioliss Classic Professional flat iron in black! If you are looking for Professional Hair Straighteners I highly recommend you check out Misikko! They also have some of the best hair dryers! Please take a look at all their available products from flat irons, to curling irons to hair dryers.. You name it they got it!

I received my flat iron this morning. When I opened the box I was impressed! It came in a box with a bunch of flowers, very nicely packaged! The Corioliss Classic Pro also comes with a brilliant heat proof pouch for free ($20 value!!) I was also lucky enough to get a small bottle of “Hana Shine Sheild” which is an advanced leavin-in treatment that strengthens and protects your hair from heat, styling and sun! I also got a pretty satin pouch with 3 Misikko nail files! Pretty awesome huh? :)

I really enjoy the Corioliss Classic Professional. It’s sleek, small and very lightweight. I especially love it because it will be very useful when straightening my girls hair. The Corioliss Classic Pro is a Ceramic 1″ flat iron that has adjustable heat from 140° - 410°F. It has an easy find on/off switch located above the heat setting. You can Straighten, flip or curl your hair and It is very energy efficient at 35 Watts! It also heats up in less than 6 seconds!

I have tried many hair straighteners in the past. But I really like this Corioliss Classic as it really does take my waves to flat in a very quick time! And lets face it I don’t have a lot of time to be straightening or playing with my hair! I love Chi hair straighteners, I’d love to try the Chi Digital flat iron and I would love to try the T3 Tourmaline Evolution Dryer. Such amazing products I’d really like to give a try!

This morning after the straightener arrived I had a shower, blow dryed my hair like I usually do and put in some product. I used the Hana Shine Shield that was sent with my straightener and really enjoy the smell of it and it made my hair very shiny. Sometimes I find leave in treatments can make my hair look a bit greasy, which was the case this morning but it wasn’t too bad. It’s not the product; it’s just my hair and what my hair naturally does.

These arent the best before and after photos, I apologize but you can see the difference. The before photo I had already ran the straightener over the left side of my hair very quickly before I realized oh no must take a photo. But, again you can see the difference. Even from just once quickly over the one side of my hair you can see the difference. I am very impressed. With my hair so thick it usually takes up to 6x going over one side, not with this straightener!

Kyla even insisted I straighten her hair. She loves having it done but with my Rusk straightener it always took a while because although her hair is thin and she has very little of it, it took a while to actually tame the curls. It took less than 8 minutes with the Corioliss on the lowest setting!

I am very impressed, and I highly recommend!

Alice In Wonderland..

I don’t know if any of you ever watched movies as a kid that you had horrible dreams about, or remembered because they freaked you out. But I have 2. “The Wizard of Oz” which I still cannot watch - that stupid Wicked Witch! (haha, I know!) and “Alice in Wonderland” the version from 1985. Take a look at this clip if you don’t know what I’m talking about:

AH. Okay, so I was searching eBay this afternoon when I found it! I couldn’t remember what year it was from so I searched YouTube and that’s the clip I found; which is the movie that FREAKED me right the heck out. Why? I’m not exactly sure but I remember very distinctly I would have nightmares about me being small and BIG HUGE things flying at me or I’d grow really big and not be able to fit into doors. I also believe I would drink a potion that read “Drink Me” and stuff right out of the movie! LOL it was terrifying as a Child. Now, I think its rather hilarious so I bought the dvd from ebay and I’m now awaiting its arrival. I’m stoked, it will be fun to watch and see how much of a dork I was. I will for sure have to blog about it after I watch it again.. it’s been years since I’ve seen it, I don’t think I’ve seen it since I was at least 5 or 6. Wait for that entry.. it should be interesting.

Before ending this entry I want to ask anyone who prays to please say a Prayer for Amanda. She is currently in hospital in ICU. It’s all over the internet what’s happened to her, and I’ve posted on a mb or two in support and asking for prayer and thoughts of support and get well. Just please everyone keep her in your thoughts, and hope she gets well. Her baby girl needs her Mommy, and we are all rooting for her, so please Amanda pull through this… we know you can do it! So, if you don’t pray please send her good vibes, and think happy thoughts for her and her baby girl.
