thanks so much to everyone that entered. i can relate to almost everyone.   i don’t have much help. my husband is wrapped up in his studies. no family around, well my mil but she’s not much help.

 i have a 3 yr, 2 yr and 6 month old. so i am on my feet constantly.

training two to use the potty with little luck. they refuse to wear panties.

they all wake up at night at different times. so i get maybe 5 hours if that a night.

my 2 and 3 year old have picked up on bad words

i clean the house just so it can get dirty 2 min later.

my girls fight over everthing

i can go on forever

not so glam anymore

can you still wear a bikini? after having children a lot of woman go to mom suits. i could rock a bikini again if i ate a little better. i have little will power. i checked out boca wich gave some great advice to better living

 

when i was a teen, before i became a mother. i wore bikinis, thats all i would wear. i had a flat stomach and a bikini fit.ah those were the good ol days! i was at the pool everyday in my cute bikini. living in phx thats the only option you really have!

 now that i have had children and put on some weight. i dread hearing bikini. i have a belly and stretch marks. those two things and bikini do not mix.i went bathing suit shopping the other day. tried on one piece and the new tankinis. a one piece was okay. it made me feel a bit awkward and my pouchy stomach still hung out. i tried on a tankini and loved it. lose enough so you can’t see my belly hanging over and no signs of my stretch marks. plus it made me feel like i was still in a bikini. i would love to invest in a tankini, still a bikini but enough bot to show my emabarassed tummy. they are too exspensive for me though. so for now i wear shorts and tshirt. though i have not been swimming in like two years. my kids have a kiddy pool in the backyard. i get in there with them.

out here and in a lot of public pools you can’t wear street clothes, so until i can find the right suit i am steering clear of the pool area.

poor polar bears

- brandy3

i am shocked and outraged at this story. this gives me more reason to hate bush. now i understand we need oil and gas, but this is rediculous.

Less than a month after declaring polar bears a threatened species because of global warming, the Bush administration is giving oil companies permission to annoy and potentially harm them in the pursuit of oil and natural gas.

Environmentalists said the new regulations give oil companies a blank check to harass the polar bear. for more of this article read it here

 

i read this in my sunday paper and was heartbroken. this is horrible to give permission to kill of a animal that is already in danger due to global warming. best bet find other sources of energy. spend money on trying to fight global warming, energy alternatives.
