Quirks or Peeves?

Well, it has been quite awhile since I have posted on here. Shall I say life has been rather busy to say the least! Being in Graduate School and working and raising three BUSY kids has taken a tole on me. I don't have much time for myself anymore. So I noticed on a not so busy day that my sister-in-law, Lisa, in Cali (Jon would kill me for saying that) has tagged me for my 6 quirks or peeves. You mean I have to keep it to 6? Since they will most likely pertain to me, I could go on forever! But I hope to entertain you with the ones I will have the guts to list.

1.) With my 30Th birthday vastly approaching, I have a big peeve on how people think turning 30 is such a horrible thing. Are you at your peek prior to then? If so, I am screwed! I have bigger worries in my life then turning 30. I overheard a guy at the gym yesterday saying he is deathly afraid of turning 30, it will be the end of his life. He is 27. Come on now! Are you that pathetic?

2.) I absolutely hate how I cannot get my house clean enough. I always feel inadequate! No matter how hard I try, it is not good enough. Jon is sooo good about this. He has taught me to relax a little more. I guess it is more of the inadequate thing, with just about everything in life.

3.) I am not a very open person. I guess that is how I should word it? I am not good at meeting new people, maybe that is better. I am horrible at it actually. I always feel like they would rather be talking to someone else. I have missed out on getting to know some really great people on a better level because of this!

4.) Oh, one not about me. I hate how Jon farts and burps all the time. He has passed this trait on to Miranda, not very pretty! Gas in general. Working with Special Needs kids, I hear and smell a lot of it daily. GROSS!

5.) I hate that we can't get more done on the house. We have tons of work that needs to be done and we can't do it. ie: money, time and life. It is a daily struggle for me. I get really in the dumps cause I feel once again, that it is not good enough.

6.) Back to the gym thing, I am peeved that I can't lose that last 20 pounds! Those three kids have destroyed my body. I like to pass blame! How could it be my fault? ;) Or maybe I should say that I am peeved that I don't have more will power when it comes to food?

Tag to those of you who want it!!

Anyways, I could bore you with my life, but wait, if you didn't want to hear about it, you wouldn't be here, right? Yeah, one of those days. I have many of them.

I will hopefully post some pictures of my birthday. I hope to find the time. We are actually getting a full night without the kids. I am going dancing!!!!!!!!! Watch out!

I found your blog off oe the Woodens it is good to know I am not the only one who never seems to have a clean enough house or who can't get everything done on my list of things to do. Cute backround too!

Sorry this comment is so late! What could I say or do to make you understand and believe that you are completely amazing and capable and much more than adequate? Please just repeat to yourself that you are wonderful anytime you need to. It is so normal for us moms (and most women typically) to feel inadequate at so many things. So many jobs and chores are things that are a long process, or need to be repeated forever, no way you can ever feel finished on those. hehehe you said Jon and fart in the same sentence, poor Evelyn, inherited Daddy's talent!
Hope y'all had a super wonderful Christmas. HUGS

OOps, I meant Miranda got Daddy's talent, although I bet Evelyn's got some of Daddy's other talents ;)
