Welllll Crap

Are you kidding me? Now I have to worry about my lipstick making me stupid too?! As if checking every label on every toy and utensil I purchase or already own isn't enough! The chinese have to go and mess with my lipstick too. This is getting ridiculous. At this rate I am going to need a personal Lead detector for my home. I do not have enough brain cells to waste them on lead ingestion! And really, my lipstick! Is nothing sacred anymore.

My niece

I clearly have not written in a while. And truly that does make me sad. I wish I could blog more. Somehow, I think it is a sign of stability and having it all together. Not because blogging actually demonstrates those truths or fictions as the case may be. But because if I did have my act "together" I would have time and energy to do the things I really want to do. I would really go to the gym to exercise. I would not yell at my sweet children. I would not cram my face full of cookies every time I am upset. And I would get all the paperwork completed early enough to get help with my iteneraries!
I am home today apparently in need of a break from life's pressures. But when you're a Mom there really is no such vacation. This weekend I really need to take my niece on a trip to talk about becoming an adolescent and sex! I really don't know how I am going to get that done! On top of everything else I am supposed to do! But if I don't talk to her about God's love and plan for her. There really is noone who will. It is really sad but true. Both of her parents love her just enough to appear that they love her. I don't know if that makes any sense but it is true. Of course, maybe they are just too lazy to love her the way she needs to be loved. Either way it has somehow come to me to be the one to have the talk with her. I am actually excited about that part. I think it will be a nice time to clear up some misunderstandings she may already have. I love my sweet niece very much. And I understand the role I have as her aunt that can be very influential in her life. Although, I do wish I had enough money to really do it right. oh well, we shall see.
