Rocco says the darndest things...........

Last night we got in a little later than normal and the first thing I did before making dinner was to change Gia’s diaper. While I was doing so, Rocco went and grabbed a bag of powdered donuts and poured them on a plate and tells me: “I cooked dinner mommy……….mmmmm……..donuts!” I then took the donuts away and said “Sorry Charlie, nice try, this is not dinner.” He looked at me and said “I’M NOT CHARLIE I’M ROCCO AND I COOKED THE DONUTS FOR DINNER!”

Thieves

Well, yesterday was not such a good day. Not only was my little Gianna sick, but my new "used" double jogging stroller was stolen off my porch. I placed it out there while I was mopping my entry way and when I went to bring it in, it was gone! I am still very upset. How could someone steal something like that? I worked very hard to get it and it was gone just like that. KARMA KARMA KARMA will get the thief...................

I am back!

WOW! It has been way too long. I have been super busy with mutiple jobs and my two babies. I will try to start posting daily. Now that I have a laptop, I have no excuse!

Thursday's Quote

“Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.”

I subscribe to the web-site http://www.justsell.com/ and I receive daily emails with quotes and sales tips. This is one of my favorites and it made me smile when I opened today's email and saw that it was the quote of the day.

5-Hour Energy Anyone?

I have heard so much about the "5-hour Energy drink" and have decided that I am going to try it today. I had to work both jobs yesterday (8 am to 4am) and have to do the same today and tomorrow as well as work Saturday night from 6 pm till 4am. I figure now is as good of a time as ever to try it. I will let you know how it goes.....................

Today's Quote

“For the hand that rocks the cradle - Is the hand that rules the world” -William Ross Wallace

**My mom sent me a card for Mother's Day with this quote written on the inside of the card. Believe it or not, I had never heard this quote before and now it is one of my favorites. I decided to "google" William Ross Wallace and this is what I found:

Our God is the Sovereign King of the universe, and He has blessed mothers with an awesome responsibility.
Click on Deuteronomy 6:6 and His Word


Blessings on the hand of women!
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
Oh, no matter where the place;
Would that never storms assailed it,
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

Infancy's the tender fountain,
Power may with beauty flow,
Mother's first to guide the streamlets,
From them souls unresting grow--
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or evil hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

Woman, how divine your mission
Here upon our natal sod!
Keep, oh, keep the young heart open
Always to the breath of God!
All true trophies of the ages
Are from mother-love impearled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

Blessings on the hand of women!
Fathers, sons, and daughters cry,
And the sacred song is mingled
With the worship in the sky--
Mingles where no tempest darkens,
Rainbows evermore are hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

William Ross Wallace (1819-1881)

Ok, tonight I am going to watch a movie!!!!!!!!!!

Part of the fun of being a single mom is having to give up "me" time. My 3 year old son Rocco is a handful and never lets me watch tv. :) From the moment I pick him up from daycare and feed him dinner, he is NON-STOP! I am really having a tough time getting him to go to bed at 8 pm. Needless to say, by the time I get him down for bed, I am too tired to watch tv or read a book. I am notorious for renting movies from NetFlix and holding onto them for a month (or 2)! So, tonight I have scheduled time for me to watch a movie that I recorded on my DVR back in February. :) We will see how it goes..............
