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 andNEVER 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-

So what Wednesday...
So what if I am not like normal females and don't get all gushy about Valentines Day. I guess I do have a tiny bit of my mama in me (probably a whole lot...but lets not tell her that)...
So what if I enjoyed my weekend without my kids more than I should have. The fact that the house stayed perfectly clean for two whole days was amazing...it was totally awesome...can't lie...
So what if even though I enjoyed my clean house I hate missing my children's activities. Hearing about how great my girl played ball kills me. Mommy guilt is at it again...
So what if the wind could have literally picked up my house and blew it to the next county. I don't know who pissed off the Wind God but it must have been pretty bad...
So what if I was sucked into another test on face book. A-I'm not sure how picking a child out of 12 pictures can give you any clue into what state you should be from. B-When asked what food chain I liked best I chose Dunkin Donuts...not because I like it but because I didn't recognize the names of any others. C-I'm pretty sure out of the 50 states it would NEVER be North Dakota...when you get more bad weather than Lake County then I'm out...just sayin...
So what if I'm a little worried when they say that you are what you eat. If that's the case then I'm a cookie dough brownie, diet coke and spicy mustard middle aged lady who thinks she is healthy because she runs once a week if she is lucky. I think I may need to rethink my life choices...
So what if a photo my sweet friend posted of a 4" spider at her home in Hawaii almost made me promise myself to NEVER go there again. It is a damn good thing I love the sun and sand a little more than I hate spiders because it was a close one...
So what if my son's obsession with golf never ceases to amaze me. I'm not kidding when I say that if he could pitch a tent on hole 9 (even in the sub-zero temps) he would. I know I say this EVERY week but it is a little ridiculous...
Hope all of you lovely readers have a fabulous rest of the week!! Sweet Tater-

So What Wednesday...
So what if I didn't follow my poor dad's fatherly advice and went to Tater's game anyway. The roads where not as bad as I thought and after 37 (almost 38) years of doing what I want to I'm pretty sure that he wasn't surprised...
So what if I feel terrible that my poor children are longing for normalcy. The worst part about it is...I hate to break it to them but this is the new normal...sorry...
So what if the last month and 13 days has literally kicked my a$$. I'm ready for a nap...followed by a nap...you get the picture...
So what if the rest of Oregon is getting snow and out of nowhere Lake County has became the banana belt of the state. I've lived here since the womb and never seen this. How is it even possible??...
So what if the questionnaire on face book is a big fat liar. How could it say that I am a pint of beer when clearly I am a bottle of wine?? The insanity...
So what if basketball has taken over Darb & I's life. 4 kids, 3 teams and 7 games in the last week has made life awesomely crazy...
So what if migraines can take a hike. I don't want you, don't like you, don't need you and hope you never visit again. The END!!
So what if my Taters may have a slight germ phobia. Besides an impromptu golf game I have literally NEVER seen him move so fast. At the first sound of puke he was packed and out the door to his grandparents...at 1:00 a.m.. I hope after all of that he is lucky enough to not be the next victim...
So what if I am convinced that although I don't mind getting older my bones and muscles do. I never thought I would be "that" person but at almost 40 but I am. After a long run I feel like I am 70...UGGGHH...
Two days until Valentine's Day. Have fun with the one's you love! Sweet Valentine-
