My Five

I feel as though it is becoming routine for me to comment on what “crazy” week I am having. Yesterday I was joking about it being “Thirsty Thursday” and one of my friends kindly pointed out it was Wednesday…. EPIC FAIL… So without out further ado here is my five random things that mean everything or nothing to me this week!

Five.. When I was 14 I had my first job. When I was 16 I had two jobs… By the time I was 18 I was a district manager of 3 salons and had another full time job. So Obviously I am used to working MANY hours… HOWEVER after only working part time, or not at all while being a stay at home mom, I am So worn out by this 60 hours a week thing. I used to work 80 hours+ and still have energy to party and now I can hardly do 60. I need to start sucking down the caffeine and working out hard core to get more energy because I feel so OLD! However Like I briefly mentioned last week I feel so blessed to be the Resident Manager of a 125 unit property at the age of 23(that number still makes me cringe). As my mom always said there is nothing you can’t do when you put your mind to it! Like when I first started riding a bike she made me repeat… I CAN DO IT I CAN DO IT I CAN DO IT! And as my sisters would say I am a mexiCAN not a MexiCANT!

Four... I am not one to recommend things but ESURANCE is amazing, and Jacki Wages at Esurance(Phone: (800) 772-935 Ext. 2635) is even better. AND NO I DON’T GET ANYTHING FOR SAYING THIS. The service she offered was amazing she was sweet and patient not just out for a sale. I have amazing coverage and it truly is the most inexpensive coverage for a vehicle. In this society I can’t help but obsess a little over good service!

Three.. True Blood Season Premier DID NOT disappoint me. It was just as out of control, shocking, and amazing as I expected it to be. This season is going to be wonderful. I have said it before and I will say it again the author of Twillight ABSOLUTELY stole her idea from the author of the Sookie Stackhouse series(which True Blood is based after).

Two.. OH OH OH! So Jacques and I are complete Tv Show Junkies( SEE ABOVE FOR EXAMPLE) and As we are caught up on all of our shows I was looking for something new to watch. Old, New, Strange it really does not matter we love everything. Anyway searching on google for good shows and “Persons Unknown” Popped Up I guess it just started on … I think NBC… AHHH AMAZING! LOVE IT. Recommend It!

One… Always seems to be about my little, BIG, Papa Bear! I swear every week this kid takes LEAPS and BOUNDS in his development. He went from sitting to crawling in a 3 week period and now a month later standing and trying to take steps. Seriously! Every time we think the place is baby proof he proves us wrong!

As Always Love,

Mommy Of a Jamexican!

Crazy week


Should have made more than eight cups! Is it nap time already? Aries is napping behind me on the couch and Jacques to my right. It almost seems rare to have all three of us in the house at the same time. Its been a long work week, Jacques now works full time(while going to school full time) and I have been working almost full time. A definite adjustment from both hardly working part time. We were so fortunate to have spent so much time with Aries for the first six months, but when great opportunity comes along its hard to say no, hopefully it will lead back to me being a full time stay at home mom. Crazy because I have been working since I was 14 had two jobs at 16 was a district manager by 18 while having another part time job. I LOVE TO WORK. I never expected to want to stay at home, but spending the day with my son is the best work I could ask for! Get ready for one of my great transitions… Its going to be a good weekend. I am really looking forward to moving into our new apartment. However I am beyond scared of what Jacques is going to say when he sees the color in the kitchen lets just say… it did NOT turn out to be anything like the color swatch we chose. We of course can always re paint it but it probably wont be as good of quality as the professional painters who are painting it now. What can you do? We will make the best of it. We are pretty good at that! : ) as always thanks for reading my random ramblings!

Love always, Mommy of a Jamexican!
