ALL about me! My place to rant,rave, cry and laugh!
** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **
by Kiya



WELCOME TO MY BLOG




I joined WDC in December 2004 and have struggled with starting a blog. I made a list and it had just as many cons as I did pros. But finally I have decided to go for it.
This blog is for me, about me and really when it's all said and done~~If you visit my place and you don't like it here, you don't have to be here!
This is for me! To help me! This is my place to vent, rave, rant, cry, laugh and say whatever I need to say!
I think we all have personal truths. This blog is to help me find my personal truth, deal with my personal truths, let go of some of my personal truths and build on my personal truths!
Personal Truth are those thoughts and actions which lead to a feeling of well-being. I think there has to be accountability in order for truth to be found in a personal way. I think all means of self-discovery are valid. I hope my blog helps me with this.

My birthday is tomorrow...35!!!
I feel old most days...sometimes I feel really young.
Like when the kids and I are doing something and we get to laughing.
I'm not sure what they have planned, I know Caitlyn is making a cake for me!
I would like to just stay at home and watch movies this weekend. Haven't done that in while since we have been so busy with baseball!
We have a few weeks of nothing and then Cody goes to football camp and Caitlyn goes to Band camp...all in town so it means running them back and forth every day...so much for summer vacation...

Haven't really had much to say here.
I have been busy with kids and ball.

Have been in a funk, not sure why...can't say that I even care...I just want it to go away!!
Been grouchy and on edge, but it will pass..

Haven't done too much here besides keeping my contests up...little things irritate me.....people bitching about things everywhere you turn around. Gripes about reviews, gripes about GPs ,gripes about newbies, gripes gripes gripes. Most of it is very petty. I think we should pick our battles not focus on stupid, minor things.

But damn I just did it too didn't I>>>??
hmm ok I'm through griping.

On a good note I am participating in DDOSF and having lots of fun. I love having a secret buddy and getting them things...(I kind of suk at it the secret part...I have exposed myself about 3 times already!!! : 0 )

My secret buddy is awesome and has sent one of my groups and my weekly contests GPs!!!

Been a while since I have written here.
Busy with the kids and sports.

This past weekend we had a 2 day tournament out of town and I didn't have much time for anything.
We lost, but had lots of fun.
There was a huge Cinema right beside the hotel and the movies were only $3.75 if you went before 6pm.
We all saw Click and then Caitlyn and I saw Break-Up while Cody and his friends went and saw the new Fast/ Furious movie...Tokyo something...
Click was funny!
So was Break up in spots, but I didn't like the way it ended.

Cody had a good weekend. His batting and fielding was on!In the first game, his first hit was so powerful that they intentionally walked him his 2nd time up...which irritated me. These are flippin 13-14 year olds!

I spent the last 2 days (when I was able to get on) catching up on my Weekly contest and updating my Simply Everything Reviewing group.
The group did 112 reviews in 8 days!!
I still need to catch up on this weeks entry for my Weekly contest and review on my Newbie contest. Just haven't felt like reviewing.

Things will calm down in a couple of weeks.
Her softball ends with a tournament on July 8th and his last travelling tournament is the same weekend.
His league team ends next week with their play-offs!
Then to wait on school to start back......

Ethel was a bit of a demon in her wheelchair, and loved to charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheel and getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors.

Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic the other residents tolerated her and some of them actually joined in.

One day Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened and Kooky Clarence stepped out with his arm out stretched. "STOP!," he shouted in a firm voice. "Have you got a license for that thing?" Ethel fished around in her handbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. "OK" he said, and away Ethel sped down the hall.


As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, weird Harold popped out in front of her and shouted "STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?"
Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a drink coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said "On your way, Ma'am."

As Ethel neared the final corridor, Crazy Craig stepped out in front of her, Buck-Naked, and holding his "You-Know-What" in his hand.
"Oh, good grief," yelled Ethel, "Not that Damn Breathalyzer Test again.!!!"

A very ugly woman walks into Wal-Mart with her two kids.
The Wal-Mart Greeter asks, "Are they twins?"
The ugly woman says, "No, he's 9 and she's 7. Why? Do you think they really look alike?"
"No," replies the greeter, "I just can't believe you got laid twice."

my mood that is.

I am going to take Sara's advise and check into some over the counter mood stabilizer. I have been on prescription meds but always when there has been other things going on; seperation from my ex, parent's death. I've always weened myself off, but maybe I need something routinely for a while.

Yesterday was good, I got a merit badge from kelly1202 and then one for the reviews I do and a Cheerleading one for always rewarding public reviewers.
I thought that was pretty nice!

Today I got a little irritated. Someone reviewed my contest....but it wasn't a review for the contest it was a correction of a word I use sometimes in my reviews that I give.....seems I have been misspelling it.. lol!
I don't mind being corrected but they sent it anonymous and signed it a friend...well if it was a friend then they should know they could have sent me an email telling me this!! oh well..

Now that leads to reviews, I do a lot of reviews here and stay in the top 100....yes at times they get repetitive(I think that's how you spell that word.) Even though I point out certain things about each one I also try to personalize each review...whether it's saying what emotion/feeling their item evokes in me to their individual errors...
Still sometimes I feel, as a reviewer, between a rock and a hard place. Like damned if you do, damned if you don't. It can't be too positive BUT it can't be too negative.
It can't be too short BUT it can't be too long.
You can use an image BUT not one that is too big or use it TOO often. There are items and forums all around with people bitching about reviewers...
I think instead of them using that time bitching about them they should go GIVE some reviews OR they should go to the public review page and award some of the reviewers there!!
Enough about that, I don't know what's wrong with me!! I usually just keep these kind of opinions to myself and just go about doing what I do here...but damn it felt kind of good to!

weekend.
Been in a pissy mood the whole time...not too sure why.
Glad the kids were gone most of the time.
They were swimming and spending time with friends...clebrating school being over.

I don't get this 'funky' very often, thank goodness.
But when it does hit it is freaking draining. I end up sleeping worse than usual, having weird dreams. I either eat everything in sight or nothing. I doubt EVERY decision I've ever made. I dwell on past events that can't be changed, I think about good times thaT can never be had again. anyway,

I know I've got to hide it better.
Last weekend when we were at the Hotel, the kids had done something to irritate me and I had got onto them. A little bit later Caitlyn, my 11 y/o said, "Mom, do you ever notice that you have mood swings?..."
not good
: (
So, I was talking to my best friend in Texas about it...wondering...Are my swings worse or is my daughter getting old enough to 'see' them?!?!
So, I have to chill with these...when I try I find myself withdrawn and unattached to them and my surroundings.
I have to find some way to handle these funks a little better...anyone have any suggestions??

day....I just feel like crying.
NOT sure why!

May be my hormones, since it's my 'time' of the month.
Yes, I'm talking about that, if everyone else can talk about stupid ass shit in their blogs~~so can I.
Told you~~I'm in a funk.

I was worried about my muse yesterday...no reason to be...my ugly thoughts of today has produced 2 items!!
Leave it to your emotions....

I came here to vent but it's all crazy in my head and I can't even write about the shit.

Would you even believe me now if I said........
Have a good weekend
; (
