Wow. Last night was a blast. I hosted a Slumber Party. Everyone but one person showed up that had RSVP'd. Some brought friends and we had lots of laughs.

We're ready for the weekend. It came so fast not that I am complaining. I spent all week scrubbing my house down for the party and so I guess that helped it go by faster. I am so proud of my girls for getting their own rooms cleaned before the party. Genni's is usually clean until Koda goes in there lol. Erica's is NEVER clean I'm going to take a picture and every time it gets messy I am going to pull the picture out and say I want it to look like this. I know you can do it.

Now I just need to figure out what I am doing for the weekend. Hope everyone has a great one!

January 26 2009

Wow, this month has just shot by. Not a very adventurous month of us. I am still not working yet. I called last Thursday and they are calling people back but only at like 67 and I am 256 So I have a while. They said they are calling about 30 back twice a week. So hopefully I will be back before Valintines. I could use the break from home life. I know if freaks people out when they see I am a stay at home mom who is single lol. Not the usual Single mom right. Well I am able to do that because I get the Survior benifits from Danny when he died. I only work at I.R.S. So that we have REALLY good health insurance because you know kids you need to have it.

I am getting tired of the snow and cold weather. Mother Nature played a really dirty trick on us letting it warm up and then freeze us again lol. I love seeing it snow I love playing in it a little, But I am not a skier, I am not a boarder and so I prefer the warm weather so that I can go to the beach and have fun there.

My Scentsy Business was booming, This month it too a MAJOR dive. I haven't put one order in, I am a little saddened by it. I am trying to put together a quicky party for Valentines on Friday Jan, 30th. But not sure it will get much response. If you haven't gotten your invite you are welcome to come just give me a call or send me a message and I can give you the info. Or even if you just want to place an order you can go to my site, WWW.SCENTSY.COM/13301 .

I am also hosting a Slumber party if you would like to come it is this thrusday the 29th at 6:03. It is going to be so fun.

I have been trying to keep myself busy the past week. I have had a kind of hard situation that I am still not 100% sure of. Shane went in to have surgery (he had to have a bump on the inside of his nose removed and then they removed his tonsiles) and I have been trying to figure out what I am to him lately. We have been together for 2 1/2 years and in November I finally had enough of him doing nothing but sleeping and not working and kicked him out of the house. I still love him but it's hard enough as it is trying to keep myself and my three kids a going he expected me to take care of him and his kids and get nothing in return.

He came to me about two weeks before I kicked him out and made the comment I owe you so big I'll have to marry you and take care of you. Well we had talked about getting married before and both of us had agree'd that we didn't need to be married. He needs to get his divorced finalized before we could even do anything if we wanted to. But anyway so I wasn't really sure that he meant what he said or if he was just joking. Well one of his friends has commented that I am still his girlfriend but yet his friends wife thinks I am the ex. His mom on the other hand still has the pictures up of our families together and us as a couple like we are still seeing each other (I am still friends with them all) and so when I ask him what I am I don't get a reponse. He is currently living with his friend and his wife and so I can't go by them because one thinks I am and one thinks I'm not. UGH.

So I decided that while he is down from his surgery I was going to get out and have some fun and get MYSELF back and so I have. He texted the other day wanting to know what I was doing that night. I told him what I was doing and he asked why we didn't do that when we were together. I told him that he was always going to poker and never checked if I wanted to go and so I never felt like I was apart of it. and that had we been together now I would have totally had him go with me and we would be hanging out together. (When he was living with me and he worked he would work Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday 7:30 am to 6:00 pm. So by the time he is getting home he is exhausted from working a 12 hour shift and eats and then went to bed. On the days off he would sleep and then get up around 6 pm and then at 8 he would say he was going to hang out at his friends house. So I started wondering what the crap, I can stay home and take care of mine and his kids and he gets to go out and play I don't think so). I don't know if he is having issues with the fact that I CAN go and do things now or just the fact that now that he is not around I am doing things. But honestly I just recently reunited with my girlfriends after somewhere around 13 years. I have been having a blast getting to know them again and getting out kids together and just having FUN. I tried to explain that to him but I don't think he understood that they really weren't in my life after I got pregnant only because one I couldn't go and do anything because the babies daddy wouldn't help out, and with Shane well he was never around and if he was he was usually sleeping and so I didn't right leaving my kids with him to watch when they would really be watching themselves.

So am I right to have more or less left him while he was down. I don't text him unless he texts me first. I haven't gone to see him since Wednesday. And when I did I kissed him on the forehead (his nose was to sore for me to try on the lips) and said GOODBYE. But I don't think he heard me because he text me an hour later saying he was sorry he fell asleep while I was there. But I still did it, It wasn't easy for me I still love him and would LOVE to see him get his life where it needs to be and we could be together but the way I see it sleep in his number 1 priority and his friends were his number 2 and I came in last and I didn't think that was very fair. I commented on it a lot and he would always tell me that they came after me but he never proved it to me.

Ok ok enough whineing. No I don't want cheese with it. lol.

So this past weekend I had a blast I went to my friend Yvettes brother in laws house warming party and go Wasted. I wasn't planning to go to the party because he (the brother in law) is trying to get with me and I didn't want him to think that I was there for him because I have no intrest in him but Bill and Yvette told me to get out of the house and come have some fun so I did. They had some friends there some I knew some I didn't. We had fun. Ron (one of the friends I knew who was bar tending) got mad when I left I didn't drive one of the friends Vinny drove me in my car with my kids to Yvettes which was just around the corner, Yvette and I were going to walk but it was cold and so I decided to take the ride. We stayed the night there. Hung out all day Saturday. I was exhausted all day yesterday not getting into bed before 3 the two nights before.

I have lots to do today I need to start scrubbing my home down it's amazing how three kids can destroy a house in such a small amount of time! I think I can get my house together before my parties. It's definately not as bad as I use to let it get. I love this place and I found it on my own and so I think that helps me. My other places my husband found for me and decorated it for me and I had no say in the way it looked and I didn't like that.

I am a very independent woman and I know what I like and don't like and I guess that is probably why I don't get along very long with guys. Danny and I were together for ten years (we spent our tenth anniversary (Sept 16th) in the hospital because he was having back surgery he came home and recovered and on Sept 25th He passed away. The Death Certificate stated he had a drug poisioning, clogged artery and he was obese. He was 5'11" and at his last dr appointment he weighed in at 211. I don't think he was obese. He was over 300 lbs when we married June 4, 2002 so I think he was in better shape then he was then.

Ok I am rambling, If you actually read all of this THANK YOU.

What a weekend

Well it started out kinda slow and crazy. Erica had asked grandma if she could sleep over friday and then Genni asked to sleep over at my brothers so she went over there. Koda said that he and I were having a date night, LOL What a cute kids. So We had dinner and went home to bed. Saturday I took my car to my dad and he fixed it. YAY Bambi is running normal again Whoo Hoo. (Yes I named my car and Yes I know that Bambi is a boy but you know what I liked it lol)
Then we went to a friends house and had dinner and played games and it was so nice to get out of the house. I haven't left much since New Years.

January 3 2009

Well we have successfully started a new year. We at the Richardson home are all healthy and happy.

I think we all had a great christmas. They all might not have gotten exactly what they asked for but they seem happy with what they did get. I am trying to teach them that christmas is more about family and friends then it is about gifts.

Not a whole lot of news to tell. I am still working for the Gornment and selling Scentsy. I am having a Slumber Party on the 29th of January and any Woman 18 and older are welcome to come. Let me know if you are interested in coming or even if you want to place an order but can't make it to the party.

Ok I am going to try my hand at this. Wish me luck...
