what happening in august

 the first weekend of the month was used as a reset in a bit with bubby at the grandparent's house with a little shopping and date night. 

this past week has been so hot but other then getting bug bites every time i go out in the garden we started harvesting our tomatoes this week now what to do with them since they are on the small size perfect for snacking lol and taste so good. another hobby to add to my list of things i got to make time for the carrots i planted has sprouted one row better. then the others but that what it is. bubby is in his train phase hard core right now most just play with his train sets and watch thomas the train. Got a bit of heartless by elise sliver read and other then that played pal world and cleaned the house. 

Another allergies attack this past week so had to go to go get that taken care of on Tuesday so between that, keeping an eye on the garden trying to keep a 2 year old entertain while it raining outside off and all it was a chaotic week the weekend was much need clean of the house and reading time since bubby went to see his grandparents 

this week has been a week bubby hasn't been sleeping good again not sure why but we making the besst of it it been playing trains and little trip to the park and just trying to keep up with everything having to keep an eye on the garden since tomatoes are coming in with that said last week was fun but tiring 

the last week of august as been chaos between dealing with the healing from my allergy attack and my little one being feral. with all that waking up thinking it the wrong day happens idk if i just want the week to be over or what. thursday was a day where i kind of did the bare minimal with the house and that was a bit of a mistake because friday we ended up packing up the boy and going to see my mom and sister so i didn't have. full day to clean i did what i could, and that started a very busy weekend because saturday was a much over due game night of battle tech so a few late night this weekend left sunday to be a rest day where i read and hung out with my son and let my husband worry about the garden and today i'm kind of regretting leave the dish in the sink and computer work for monday but I feel reset in a way i wish i could get a good night sleep but that seems to be a me problem with that said August was okay other then the bad allergy reaction that i'm still healing from yes i know don't scratch but it so hard, And that the end of another month i'll see you in september 

what happen in july

 well the first few days we during my husband's work shut down so we sent time together as a family he took our son on walks and try to keep cool the first couple of days then Friday we visit my mom and hung out there. then on the fourth we went to a parade and then visit my in laws then we finish off with small fire works for my son before he went to sleep we learned as of now he doesn't like to be out with the loud ones. he also don't like when they are over. once he went to bedI ended up staying up to late watching everyone else to bigger ones from my front window and watching a Netflix show. sunday just became a wash really of just chilling at home because of that. 

the 6th thur the 12th was a bit of getting back to the normal program lots of trying to figure out what needs done now and what can wait had to do a shopping trip with bubby and for the most part he was good got mad when i had to clean his face but he helped mommy a lot shopping and then help bring the bags in he been helping more with things we also took to an old co worker"s  house where he got to going swimming for the first time. though his terrable twos is showing this month for sure i don't know if he just go thrown off with the trip and them my husband being off for a week but he been extra this week. Also did a slittle go go fest and checked out the new pal world update 

ah week three was a mess and to top it off I got sick so sent the boy to in law so i can rest and ended up trying to clean the whole house. That didn't get finish before bubby got home but it looked a whole lot better and hubby relise it shouldn't just be up to me let's see how long that last. I'm only half joking about that but with that we will see what the next week holds 

this past week was getting the house clean and over the weekend we took bubby to the book store needed to get rid of some of the  books i was unhauling and got some stuff for the garden lot of walks and as much outside time as we could get over all a very normal week for us. 

the last few days was spent changing bubby around keeping an eye on the garden seeing how much it grows and trying to finish a few books with that said happy reading and remember to take care of yourself 

book loft trip

 last month we took a family trip to Columbus Ohio and while there i finally got to go to the book loft in german village. this store is bigger then it looks and i loved it it like a little maze full of books. I don't this i put a dent in to looking at everything with my son nap time coming up and him being hungry tired and cranky i still came out of that store with 5 books 2 for my son and 3 for my self.  I would love to go back again another time i think next time i it going to be a big bookish trip or just a trip to german village but if you love books and are visiting Columbus ohio i'd check out the place

what happen in may

 This first weekend of the month was a cold one we just try to stay warm but we did take bubby to the park where he made a little friend and played with the whole time. 

another week over this past week i felt tired a lot and behind on chores just kind of felt like i was dragging my feet all week not sure about that. as for stuff we done this week our neighbor gave bubby a trampoline which i think he been on almost every day. we also took him to the library and got some book i had to get a replacement for myself and hubby got his own. tho bubby was wanting to run around and pull ooks off the shelf which hubby got piss about my son thought it was a game and when hubby picked him up he had a melt down. so checking out was hard when i had a husband who wouldn't give me the book to check out and then need my card to check them out then not understand why yelling at me to come over from across the room as a follow my son to make sure he not cause and problems like dude it a library don't yell exceptionally whn you just told our son not to do the same thing. B. I'm a little busy but other then that bubby when to the in laws for a few days then we picked him up on Saturday and took him to visit my mom for an early mother's day then mother day was spent mostly with my son since hubby had to work that night. 

this past wee was chaos to say the least my husband had some overtimes and to say bubby didn't want him to go is an understatement. i started decluttering again 100th time a charm right? this week i felt like i was dragging ass again go figure right. it was also hubby birthday weekend so we went out to eat and of course bubby had to miss behave he wanted to climb and run around and my husband didn't here the host right so no high chair for bubby we made it work. after that we did a little shopping and over the weekend we kind of just chilled at the house Saturday took a walk but other then that nothing to out there. 

this week was a lot of trying to get my ass in gear, Ive just been in a funk the last few weeks and been doing the bare minium but got some cleaning down and much need rest done finish a book or two it been hard getting bubby out since it been raining off and on all the past week and this week is much better we will see what this week bring other then visiting the in law not much happen this weekend

the final week was a week of just staying home and trying to keep my son busy while cleaning the house and cooking along with getting computer work down. had a day where he would let his father sleep. other then the normal chaos it been okay 

over all this month has been rainy but a lot of celebrating and chaos with that said have a wonderful day and read what you love 

life update

 Well another update I can't remember when the last one was it looks like from my research it was march when. Bubby turn 2 but that was focus on him. this is a genral update.

home cooking:

this is going good and been trying more and more thing made my own bread a few times as well and my own tortillas and homemade pizza well simi homemade haven't gotten brave to make my own pizza sauce yet. I'll get braver but i also want to be able to can the sauces i make to make them last as long as posable but with having pizza almost every Friday that might now go bad as fast 

Gardening 

Well gotten the tomatoes, onion, and peppers planted in the raised beds I also trying to get camomile to grow in my kitchen window and have gotten parsley and basil plant in pots got swiss chard going in a starter kick and got some carrots in the beds we will see what grows this year and me and my husband has said we will see what we want to plant next year in November so we can have more of a plan and see if we want to grow our garden 

house work

this has been a mess a lot of nights it lucky if the dishes are done and that with a dishwasher( that need to be replaced) there always to been crumb and toys everywhere and we still hot our sons room 

reading 

now reading has been mostly been audiobooks but i have been able to get a few moments in to physically read here and there 

movies 

i've kind of slowed down on. watching movies right now and been watching more youtube it fine my list is under 250 i keep getting it close to 200 then finding more movies i want to watch so there that.

gaming 

i've been playing a few games here and there when i got time and i just want to fully unwind minecraft and binding of isaac have been put on rotation and of been playing a lot of the sims 4  

motherhood 

ah motherhood it been up and down some days I lost my patience and other days seems to be a breeze the little boy i'm raising is fearless and will test boundaries like no other. With that said i wpuld change it for any thing at all. I love seeing him play and what he gets in to though it can be messy and he loud and won't listen sometimes he has a big heart he has to know where everyone is and will check on people even though it not his job. He still needs to learn to play with kids his own age but don't have a lot of opportunities for that right now. he loves outside as well which can be hard to get him inside so neither one of us burns and he can have a something to drink or when he getting tired that boy will go and go until he falls out. 

health 

this has been a bit up in the air back in February the whole family got the flu but as i was getting better from the flu i got some kind of allergy reaction to something in the house and had a dizzy spell in the middle of the night when i got up to go to the bathroom. then in march i had a sinus infection. then in april while cleaning up our back yard i got in to something that made me had another allergy reaction. my mental health has been pretty good a few day with all the illness it slipped but for the most part it been good. 

with all that said thanks for reading this and have a wonderful day or night where every you are and remember read what you like 

things i want to do with my son over the years

hey readers here are a few things i want or have done with my son over the years 

outside time this is an everyday thing just about 

last year we took bubby to his first aquarium trip i think going to different ones and even back to the one close to us will be done in the future 

parks it a great way to get energy out of his sadly it not an every day thing maybe in the future it can be a once o twice a week thing 

now the thing i want to do with him now some of these thing will be bigger trips so it ight be a once in a life time thing for him 

disney world now i know it over priced but i want to do this at aan age he'll remember something from it but young enough to enjoy the magic of everything 

road/ day trips/ weekend trips this might be a once a year thing and just going to different places close by where going for a day or weekend will still be worth it all and not feel rushed 

zoo trips this is something we are going to try this summer this will be a summer thing because of roads and winter weather where i live 

museums trips this one i might wait until my son old enough to know not to try to touch everything 

This stuff isn't to keep him busy because it just be once a year or so but to keep him to feel like summer only good thing is no school. Growing up summer always felt like a dead zone since my family rarely did anything at all 

what happened in april

Hey readers, the first five days of this month has wiped me out we had some good weather leading to lots of outside time. Wednesday was going in out of the house and trying to get food on the table as well as keeping the house clean Thursday was a park day and some shopping for garden things and stuff for bubby. Friday was an running around day getting the weeks groceries and take care of the house and running bubby around in between rain showers Saturday was easter bubby photos and bubby first easter egg hunt. sunday was easter so time with family and another easter egg hunt for bubby

so another week of chaos at the ward house monday was a meeting and the new gun range and then tuseday bubby came home wednseday we had some one come out to give us a price on a new heater and the next day we had a new one put in along with a new ac unit then friday was a new water heater so lots of chaos with a little child that just wants to know what going on in his home saturday all the chaos got to momma and i took a nap only too be woken up with screaming and yelling my husband noticed something wrong with the water pressure and went to go look as he was fixing the problem or little germlin had to go check things and grab a pipe that wasn't properely surcred and cut it little finger so momma had to clam bubby down because dadda yelled when he got hurt he thought he was in trouble and bubby kept saying sorry but he okay won't leave a band d aid on but we got him a couple of toys and ice scream to make him feel better had to go to the store any how since momma for got stuff at the store the day before. then he got to surpise his papaw with a sleep over there for the night sunday probably was the chillest day of just touching up the house trying to get laundry done and playing with bubby. 

Another week of chaos this week i had the bright idea to help my husband out in the yard and clean up some weeds and brush that been sitting in the back yard or started growing and we both been too busy to deal with and... not i'm having an allergic reaction to something and it bad it started late thurday and just has gotten worst. Bubby was enjoying the outside time and the weather but this week we starting off cold again so we will see how much outside time we get. we also hot more dirt for the raised bed and to plant my plant for the back yard I'm ready for this rection to go away to say the least hopefully the next week is better 

this past week was a week of getting better and doing what i can in the yard with out making my allergy reaction worst. chasing bubby around the back. yard and cleaning this house of ours it needed it bubby went to visit his grandparents so i had time to do a deep clean in a few rooms of the house. with that we used friday as a bit of a date night at home we went to a new coffee shop that in town before we went grocery shopping then after i sent my husband to bed and got as much as i could done before i had to make dinner. then had and movie game night at home. then bubby came home saturday in time to go out for pizza and a book trip for independent bookstore day where we both got some new books that we promptly started reading on the ride home. sunday was a home day though we did hve to got to the store and pick up a few thing we forgot and bubby got a new bubble maker that he carried around the yard when we got back for about an hour or so. 

 the last few day of the month wasn't the most exciting thing monday i cleaned house while the boys slept played with bubby until dada got up for dinner made brats and homemade fries and did more cleaning while the boys went for a walk before the storm came in once bubby when to bed played some games and read before bed Tuseday was another day of same old same old taking care of bubby and the house and finding time to read and relax Wednesday was a rainy sleepy morning and was just filled with house work and entertaining bubby. That evening tho was a bit better the sun came out and had a good dinner took a walk after dinner where i some how got stung on my toe by a bee like really i guess i was focus to much on my son who didn't have shoes on and for a second i thought i had glass in my foot but nope just a bee stinger the last two day wasn't much different tho wednseday night i couldn't sleep much and we ended up cleaning the couch with out needing to. with that said have a wonderful day 

springtime

 Spring is here and between spring and fall i can't pick really most day the temp is good enough to go out side if it not raining where is summer gets to hot and winter gets too cold and with a child that not school age yet it good to get him out of the house. Now allergies at a thing with flowers blooming and letting bubby run in the yard is the best thing though he does find trouble from time to time. This year we trying a garden as i said in last month's post we got onion both sweet and red as well as tomatoes we also trying to grow sweet peppers carrots and swiss chard that last one i got to look into how to use in recipes never had it before. So with that said this spring is bring lots of new things as well as old. lots of outside time as well as raining days curl up with my song and few books. With bubby being two we got a rotuine kind of with him and so far it working soon it will change but until then we work with what we going early morning and early bed times. long days and short nights but the time of chaos is here for a short time soon summer will be here along with who knows what. 

what happend in march

 well this month had a lot going on 

week one was lots and lots of rain and me getting sick again yay ( not really) ms to be just a sinus infection for now since it been raining we been close up in the house until the weekend where since i was sick hubby took bubby grocery shopping we finally got everything but food for bubby party as well Saturday was a park day and lunch outing and car nap for bubby Sunday was another day of walks out side and as much as we could get outside.

this past week was a lot of finding time to go bubby outside and making sure i had everything for his birthday party. the party happened and that boy had so much fun a few things we had to take away from his so he'll open up his gifts then his birthday were we spent a lot of time outside and playing with his new toys and watching bluey 

well week three was chaos but over the weekend bubby went to his grandparent and my husband and i went for a hike and out to breakfast we also updates the bathroom shower head which lead to update storage in the shower along with planted more plants got the bell peppers planted and got dirt for the raised bed now to get the raised beds 

well this past week has been cold and wet so lots of inside time but the good days was a lot of outside time over the weekend we got the raised flower beds and i got them put together but now we need more dirt trying to figure out what to do with my front flower beds now sure as of now want try to help put the raised beds together he starting to want to help out more around the house a bit like grabbing clothes and bring them to me to put in the wash or to fold after they been in the dryer 

with that said this month was bitter sweet seeing my boy turning two and the weather being all over the place here to warmer weather and fun times outside in april 

Starting gardening again

 hey readers lets talk about starting a garden again last year my husband had the idea to start a garden and we play with the idea over the years last year we only got like three small tomatoes this year my husband has been doing some research and we are doing a few things tomatoes and onions this year i'm making sue my husband label them so we know what is what when it come to trans plant the stuff i will tell you all if we get anything to grow 

shopping my own cook books

 hey readers, last year i try to cook more at home and buy less premade stuff and take out one money two was not so to keep it healthier but to know what is actually in my food. Since my son eating the food as well. Last year i was looking online but with AI recipes every where i'm going old school and using cook books we have a bunch we got over the years some were my grandmothers. I'm going though them and seeing what recipes i want to try so far we been working on one for the slow cooker and have done a few recipes so far everything we made me liked. doing this has giving me a new love for cooking but i will say i caught. a mistake in one of the recipes and it just makes me laugh. With that said i'll be trying to go though more and more of my cook books and see which one are worth keeping and what worth getting rid of. I'll update you on how this process goes and if we find any new faves 

bubby turn 2

 how is this boy turning two today. it been a wild two years for sure with sleepless night yes there are nights he wakes Again how is he two already but he not my little boy you can just look at him and see that he so tall now i noticed the other day he can look out the windows just by going on his tip toes like when did that happen? He still babbling but getting more and more words out been reading to him almost everyday. he runs, bounce and sneak around the house everyday. i didn't release until the other day he almost tall enough to look out the windows as of now he just has to go on his tip toes. he wild at times but he can be the sweetest little boy at times he'll run up to you full speed arms wide and gives you the biggest hug he likes to act bashful around strangers and try to act like he wasn't just having a full on melt down.  I never know what i'll get when i wake up but he makes my day every day when he with his grandparents idk what i would do with my time. He going through a pinching biting phase i'm surprise i'm not cover in bruises from his little butt he got his daddy once and the man had nerve to compline to me like dude i deal with this every day. Even with that he my little sour patch kid because for no reason but that he sees us he'll run full force in to us and give us the biggest hugs and he'll come up to me and give this biggest kiss. he will push his little way between me and his father like he has to be apart of the love. but with the good there the bad when ever me and his dad argue  he starts crying and if he in the other room he'll run out to see what going on like he has to protect one of us it break my heart so if i raise my once at all he breaks down and cry. over all he mommy little sour patch kid 

the perfect reading day

 Hey readers let talk about the perfect reading day for me personally i need snacks both sweet and savory. I'll need drinks and audiobooks. 

first step is to get my coffee before i even crack open a book i need to wake up. Then i need my book and either a good back youtube video or music. Then finally it time to open the book. Now we will get hungry so either i need a meal or snacks and if it snacks it be something easy to eat while i read like a meat stick or cheese stick something super simple a grab and go. if it a meal it hopefully something my hubby made and isn't too messy or sticky. 

then after an hour of reading it time to do some movement weather that a walk with an audiobook or doing some chores around the house depends on the state of my house and weather. might be with my husband or not depends on how he want to do his sleeping that day or if he wants too. then it would be a snack ti.me or meal. this snack i might take time to actully fix one so it might be a sweet treat or a chip and dip thing.  then it be another hour or so of physically reading then take a gaming break while i listen to an audio book deoend of what and when i had lunch might do another snack if i get hungery.

After an hour or so of gaming probably move a bit around the house and then go back to physaical reading then make a simple 

what happened in February

 Hey readers this month we did...

well the first week of feb didn't go as planed at all had plans on going to the library and having fun with my husband and son and i got sick so far i'm the only one but it wasn't ideal to say the least... and even though i try my best to get bubby away from the sickness he got sick too as well as my husband I feel so bad for that little boy when i got the call he was sick and had a fever i just wanted to run to him and bring him home, but the next thing i knew he was asleep so i didn't want to wake him up. 

week two hasn't been that much fun with a house full of sickness and pushing myself way to hard. bubby getting over the flu and i went from getting over the flu to having one of the worst allergic reactions i've had to waking up at midnight drench in sweat and lightheaded scaring my husband so bad he rushed home from work on his break. we been going though it this week for sure. while over the weekend we chill had  family valentines day movie and dinner at the house. After everything last weekend i'm looking forward to warmer weather for sure because being stuck in the house these past two week get bubby outside for some energy burning but it seem with warm weather rain will be coming. 

Ah with another week down we are getting better little man got a cough and running nose stick but a lot better then he was with us getting better and the weather being warmer we were out back a lot about three of the night we ate dinner out on the deck after that sickness being outside help a bunch got bubby some running time and it also got us some sun tho i think i over did it Thursday over the weekend the weather cooled friday we ran around and got that done so saturday we started in cleaning the house of since we were having a game night and we all had fun bubby fell asleep min game sunday it snowed so it was an inside day i rebuilt bubby's fort and played with him as much as i could 

with tons of snow on monday it was a inside day which bubby wasn't too happy after last week i wasn't too happy either to be honset with you but that life after all you take the good with the bad. Tuseday even tho it was cold we went for a walk to the library and got a few books wednseday was cold but sunny so i took him out to play on the deck for a bit after lunch then random pizza for dinner since mommy didn't sleep good and was tired it happens.  Thurday was a day of trying to get this done and kind of failing at getting alot done but we was able to get the boy to the playground and bubby had Was able to play with other kids he had so much fun it not even funny he was tired and still didn't want to leave but friday was busy shopping and taking bubby to memaw and papaw and saturday was a busy day of movies and pokemon go  

Playing the same games

 hey readers

if you notice on my wrap up it the same few games over and over and that because a. that what i'm playing currently duh and b. they are comfort games of mine and c. there has really been a new game i wanted to even try to play. Now i'm not saying that will change this ear as there only one game this year i'm even intrest in at all as of now but we will see if i'll pick up anything different this year 

sims and Minecraft even palworld are all comfort games for me do i get bored of them at times yes but i can just play them and not think about what i'm going to do there nothing i got to focus i can just build or collect things in them. are there other games like that out there yes but right now i'm not going to. buy a ton of games to over load my system and get to the point where i can't choose. back to getting bored with them i can take a break from them and not worry about forgetting what i'm in the middle of. 

now mega bonk sis just a mindless strangey game that i play from time to time that makes me think a bit of got to beat a level and yes i'm stuck a bit in it can't beat tier 2 of the forset i will mark my words tho. as for cult of the lamb i feel stuck in it and yes i know an up date coming for it i might get back in to binding of isaac this year and as for new game it a we will see as of now there only one indie game coming out this year that i want to check out with that said happy gaming 

simi home cooking

 hey readers 

last year i learn so many things are easy to whip up home made but i'm still simi homemade not everything going to be made from scratch right now i'm taking one thing at a time and i don't think everything will be home made i don't think i'll be milling my own flour and making my own cheese but sauces and salsas and soups i'll be trying to make more from scratch or simi homemade this year we will be trying to grow a garden again but that for another post this is about cooking

so what do i me by simi home cooking i mean less take out and more cooking at home meals will have jar sauce sometimes, but not every meal has to be home cooked either it buying the pasta insteead of making it myself, but instead of buying premade bread making it myself that kind of thing i got tons of cook books that until now rarely got used 

with that said i'm not going to be looking up recipes online as much a lot of them are ai these days, but i would love for you guys to leave your faves down below and if one of my cooking youtubers come up with something i want to try i'll use their website

over all what i'm saying is i'm not making every meal fulling from scratch between chasing my toddler and cleaning house and still trying to read a few pages a day i got a lot to do and some mornings i'm just not up for getting everything prep 

What happen in January?

 Hey reader,

 January is coming to a close and this month my family got up to...

New years's day was a day of relaxing and family time the next day we did out weekly shopping trip and then got home and hung out until bubby went to memaws and he spent the weekend there while he was out we clean the house and put away christmas decor and went though bubby stuff and packed up a few clothes that don't fit and got rid of some toys that couldn't be fixed anymore.

week two was filled with 3:30 wakes up and trying to kkeep up with the house and Bubby. Having some knee pain and back pain made it harder but things still got done we took Bubby to his frist arcade for a few mintues let him press buttons and run around a bit tho he did want to steal other people balls we got him one with the tickets and we will see when we will go back again it was fun stressful but fun then we stoped on the way home and got a pizza which i had to have a slice before we got home which lead to bubby. finding different thing for us to do that not too far away is the key for weekends because you never know if it going to rain snow be 60 or 10 degrees and with bubby he wild child. that all for that week 

week three was a week of stay home with the weather it was too cold outside to do much and I can't afford to go out every week lets be honest here but we did have a game night with the boys playing battletech buddy fell asleep before anyone got here and i was able to send out invites for bubby party in march Early morning with bubby are chaotic at time but reward. on that note sunday probably ended on the best note had a movie on and bubby crawled in my lap while i was reading a manga and once i gave him his figet book he just cuddle reading together it was so sweet tho my husband had to be a smart ass and told us to smile when he took a picture of e and my son i just flipped him off over all this week might of been stressful but it was good. 

week four, let me tell you this it was chaotic bubby was up early all week so i got almost nothing done since I was tired so weekend came and we all went to my in laws because of a big snow storm that wasn't as bad as predected just incase our power went out. to have their furnce act up and catch on fire thankfully no one got hurt and my father in law got it fix tho bubby was mad he couldn't help papaw. went to the amish store with my mother in law and looked around while she got stuff we might need and got about 80 pages read before me and my husband came home on monday we left bubby there in case we got stuck or worst. 

well will this past week being snowed in for the most part it been a week of trying to get back to our routine last night probably was the best night sleep for us and i'm still tired mid day got to power though the day I blame running around getting stuff done over all this month be chaotic and fun at the same time hope your January was a good one

1. when the weather is good outside meaning around 50 degrees are above and not raining or super windy get my son outside for at least 30 minutes a day 

2, to start better habits it easy for me to just sit on the couch when i'm not playing with my son and it also easier to just jump in to the day and not take care of myself i need to try to get a morning and night time routine of some sort that has self care into it doesn't have to be an hour just enough to get the basic done

3.to start cooking from the cookbooks we have it easy to go on line and find stuff but with ai it hard to tell what legit and not

that all of life lets go in to reading 

1. 54 books within the year I can go up but this is a stress free goal i'm not trying to make everything this big outrages goal 

2.I want to try to either complete or catch up too 5 series next year and now i know i'll have to do alot more if i want to get sown my series that i'm in the middle of but i'm going to try to get myself to dnf series if i'm not enjoying them
