What is that called? Oh, yeah a table!

Okay, this will be short since I just deleted my great entry...and I mean it was wonderful. Talked about coming up from the dead and poop and all kinds of cool stuff, but it is gone now cuz I don't know how to use a computer! Why? Because I am totally fuzzed out in my brain and cannot make any sense of the senseless babble that is in my head. I need sleep. I need my baby to let me sleep. He wants an all-you-can-eat boob fest all night and day, and I gotta tell you...it is a little exhausting. I couldn't remember the word for “table” today. Elizabeth had to finally ask me if I meant "table". I just stared back at her with my mouth open and drool coming out nodding slowly. (I think she may have taken a breast pad and wiped it off my lip...what a good girl!) I do have great kids. They have been home for a three week break, and besides the clump of poop left in the washer after the wash had been put in the dryer...(yes, washed poop still stinks and sometimes older siblings don't know they should rinse the poop out of the underwear of their regressing sibling’s (Sam) underwear. ( I swear he pooped his pants for the 100th time)...yeah, had to wash that load again...in hot. So, where was I? (Got the poop story in, hope I don't delete this again) ....it has been great. I am trying to resurrect my personality now and I hope expressing myself on this blog will help. Just a shout out to all of you who are trying to laugh at life and be grateful for insanity... I have been working on that gratitude thing?...and it is working I think...I just hope I don't die now that I feel peaceful and grateful for my kids and home...uhoh that always happens in the movies and I am reading some really sappy books by Nicholas Sparks (chic books...good ones) and so many are sick and dying when they have so much to live for...getting me paranoid. Okay, I am rambling. Love you and share me with your friends. We are all in this together right? I have missed you all. (Thanks to all your… “I miss your blog comments”) Ana

  2. Hey girl, I have forgotten such words as "patio", "jet" and "toilet"!! ha ha! No worries there. As for your personality, I don't think it can die- "esta fuerte y bella!" I'm trying the gratitude thing too- it WORKS!! You're awesome. You write wonderfully- I think you should to the Stephanie Meyers thing and start your novels.

  6. I thought I had done it all but you've topped me. I have never washed poop before. It's an interesting concept to think about though. :) Can't wait for more of this Ana humor! Such a perfect blend of optimism, gratitude, and pessimism all entangled into an intricate web of intrigue.

  7. I need a good laugh so thanks for blogging again. My kids have seen me at my worst every time I saw James in the bathroom trying to clean up his messes . . . he got it everywhere. When I finally decided that I didn't care he stopped.

    Why can't kids come to earth clean and potty trained.

  9. Thanks for returning for me, if I knew I just needed to ask i would have done it a long time ago! Love ya. I feel your pain. Breastfeeding, sleep deprivation, and potty training definitely on my list of favorites of mortality.
