So What Wednesday...Broken Ankle Edition...

So What if the weekend that was supposed to be fun turned out being one of the worst EVER.  Broken bones and dislocations 3 hours into a trip is unacceptable...

So What if the fact that I needed a shot for a migraine before we even headed out on our trip might have been God telling us that we shouldn't have gone.  I'm sorry Amus...we should have listened...

So What if my parents think that Aimee missing her tattoo appointment with a broken ankle was the good that came from the situation.  I hate to break it to them but I'm pretty sure the next time she gets a chance she will be getting two...

So What if in route to the hospital we accidentally called another Ryan that is in my phone at 1 a.m. instead of the Ryan we were supposed to.  I'm sorry "wrong" Ryan...we were a little stressed...

So What if I got a lecture from the nurse in the emergency room that we should have called an ambulance.  Honestly...it never crossed my mind.  Sorry cranky nurse but I still stand by my decision to take her in myself...

So What if the Security Guard who greeted us at the ER entrance wanted to know..."What are you here for?"  When I told him that my sister had a broken ankle he asked me, "Are you sure?".  It literally took him taking a look for himself before he realized I wasn't lying.  I know I'm not a doctor but seriously...it was pretty obvious...

So What if I am completely traumatized by the events of the weekend.  One of things I was not blessed with was an ability to handle situations that involve hospitals, broken bones, putting bones back in place, needles, etc...I try but I'm telling you that if you are hurt and you need someone...PLEASE don't let it be me...

So there you have it...blood, guts and gory details.  Hope you are all having a better week than the weekend that we had...Sweet ankle-

So What Wednesday...

So what if catering two events in one day sounded easy enough.  I always underestimate the time that things take to make happen.  You think I would have learned by now...

So what if I've bit the bullet and now have an IPhone.  Be prepared to be bombarded with food photos...don't say I didn't warn you...

So what if I guess I have a clone out there...even though I'm not sure I see such a resemblance everyone else did.  Thanks Amus...I think...

So what if missing my besties birthday hike made me really sad.  Luckily we had a birthday dinner a few weeks ago that included wine...somehow that makes it all okay...

So what if not having my boys around last week was hard for me.  I expected to get so much done.  Instead I drank copious amounts of Bonita's.  At 1500+ calories a whack I'm hoping they don't leave again anytime soon...

So what if my last two "so what's" were about alcohol.  By now I'm sure you know I love a handful of things...my kids, Darb & his sweet girls, cookie dough brownies, wine and Bonitas.  Maybe not in that particular order...

So what if I'm already living for the weekend.  Come on Friday at 3:00...get here already!!  I'm ready to play...

Merry Christmas...Oh sorry...Happy Spring.  The snow has me so confused. :)  Sweet snow-

So What Wednesday...

So What if I have spent most of the week jealy that my Darb and his sweet babies are at Disney Land this week and I had to stay home and work. Being a big girl with responsibilities can really suck sometimes...

So What if I let Tater make his first solo trip to Medford for the week and I feel old.  Where in the heck has time gone?  It seems like only yesterday that he was scootin around in his little orange car on the sidewalk in front of the house Flinestone style...

So What if I'm seriously thinking of updating my ancient flip phone for an IPhone.  I guess at some point I'm going to have to move into the 20th century but I just don't want to do it...

So What if laughing until you nearly pee your pants with your sisters, mom, niece and daughter completed my weekend.  After all...peeing your pants is the coolest...

So What if bribing my children to do things like clean house and finish a sporting season has became a common practice around this place.  Miss Me jeans and golf clubs are valuable tools of negotiation when things get serious up in here.  Ya...I know...Mom of the year...

So What if I'm pretty sure that DVR has to be the best invention EVER!!!  Commercials are completely overrated...

So What if Spring Break without plans and bored children is a disaster for any parent.  Trying to entertain teenagers in Lakeview for an entire week is brutal...

Have a fabulous week!!  Sweet spring-

So What Wednesday...

So What if I've decided that the extra light in the evening is worth the excruciating mornings that have become mine.  Luckily a little sunshine can make anything better...right??  Silver lining people...


So What if I have still only cooked one meal at home since I bought the HH on January 2nd.  I'm sure my children will be permanently scared for my shortcomings but I just can't muster up the energy to do it...

So What if my parents love Sage enough to keep her and if it weren't for the kids I would let them.  I love her too but I have NEVER had such a whiny and needy dog!!  Who has time for that??  Apparently me...NOT...

So What if I have been ignoring my email and had 698 messages in my inbox.  The worst part about the hour it took me to go through them...there was only about 15 that were worth reading.  I think I might have been better suited to live in the stone ages...just sayin...

So What if I had every intention to run the ShamRun 5k on Saturday...that was until I woke up at 8:38.  The sad part of it all was that I was secretly hoping to sleep late and miss it...I can't help it...I'm tired.  Here we are back at the time change...are you sick of hearing about it yet?  Ya...me too!!...

So What if I'm still not sure why my children have rooms or even beds.  The rest of the house is where all of their crap is and the couch is where they fight to sleep.  The truth is they that they could fight about anything and they do...

So What if my sister is going to Mexico without me.  I may forgive her...someday...

Happy Hump Day my favorite peeps...until next time.  Sweet sister-

So What Wednesday...

So what if the time change can SERIOUSLY take a hike!!  Why is it that loosing an hour of sleep can feel like a lifetime....UGGGHHH...

So what if Monday night of the Bachelor was the biggest lamest finale yet.  I'm not sure where Juan P. went from every girls dream to every girls nightmare but it certainly happened.  Poor Nicki...

So what if Target is my favorite store EVER.  That is as long as you don't have 4 hyper and whiny kids in tow.  I'm certain that I am loosing patience with each passing day...what were we thinking??...

So what if my biggest victory of the week was out running my 14 year old.  I may be slow but don't count this mama out...

So what if adding Nascar events to the already scheduled golf on our DVR is exceeding all limits.  I mean Tate really is the only one who should get to watch TV...right??...

So what if Cookie Dough Brownies have morphed into something beyond my comprehension.  I guess that can happen when you have a 3 layers of sugary goodness...

So what if I have drug out some of my spring/summer clothes even though I am sure we still have Winter coming.  My white legs tell my not to but the nice weather wins every time...

Happy Wednesday Peeps.  Enjoy the sunshine!!  Sweet sun-

So What Wednesday...

So what if my newest food obsession is Planters Snack Mix (Original).  You know that I always have something that I can't live without eating and those skinny sweet things in it are so damn good.  Thank you Planters for not making Costco sized containers of them because I would be 10 pounds heavier and sick to my stomach...

So what if having Bonita Margarita's after a 8 month hiatus was totally AWESOME!!  It was like sipping a little piece of heaven.  Awww...the little things..

So what if turning 38 was a piece of cake...followed by a cookie dough brownie, a lemon bar...OH and Planter's Snack Mix...

So what if having a weekend at home is almost as good as winning a million dollars.  What??  I said almost.  Actually...it may be better...

So what if saying goodbye to my Dad at the Happy Horse was sad.  Who else will I find to wash hours worth of dishes and NEVER almost never complain.  I learned so many things...like where I get my uncontrollable desire to eat raw cookie dough...who knew??...

So what if playing basketball against Tales team was brutal.  In my mind I think I can do it...then I'm quickly reminded that I'm not 14 anymore.  Pretty sure lack of coordination and getting older go hand in hand...

So what if I don't have a good run soon I'm going QUIT!!  I don't know who I have to talk to about that but we need to have some words...

Hope everyone is having a fabulous week.  Sweet basketball-

So what Wednesday...

So what if I'm tired of my dogs ruling my life.  How is it that two four legged fur bags can completely take over??  My life is officially ran by dogs...


So what if I'm already living for a trip in October.  A week with friends by the beach is gonna be mine...8 months from now.  It may be a lifetime away but I'm excited anyway...

So what if having my sister and best friend help me over the lunch hour might not be such a great idea.  Lets just say this...more horsing around than work was done.  Good thing that I'm the boss...

So what if the thought of being your own boss might be a whole lot better than actually being it.  Sure its great when you want to mess around during lunch but when its 5:30 a.m. and you don't want to drag your butt out of bed...your it and it doesn't matter...

So what if I'm a little worried of what my Tales body will feel like when she is my age.  If you start falling apart at 14 then I think you might be in BIG trouble...

So what if I'm convinced that making fresh cinnamon rolls every morning is a hazard to my health.  Why do they have to be so darn good?? Damn you Pioneer Woman...

So what if I found myself jealous on Saturday when a girl just happened to have a wine bottle opener in her car for emergencies...why didn't I think of that??  Then I remembered...I drink wine from a screw top or box.  Realization-I'm either poor or ghetto (or both)!!  Oh well.  It could be worse...I think...

So what if having a good friend with a baby might just be the best thing ever.  I get to enjoy the pleasures of a baby and none of the pain.  What??  I've been there...done that...twice...

Happy Hump Day Peeps.  Enjoy the Spring weather...while it lasts!!  Sweet babies-
