I didn't do shit for St. Patty's day. I am a Celtic Pagan and part Irish American. Why in the Good Goddess Bridget would I celebrate a Christian Saint desimating a good majority of a culture and way of life just because his religion and he didn't approve of it. And the man gets called a "Saint" for wipping out the Irish Pagans and anyone who so much hung on to their culture and tradations. In my opinion, St. Paddy there is rotting in the Otherworld enduring pure torture and NOT in the Christian Heaven! It is no less then what he would deserve; rotting in pain! I didn't wear green. I didn't wear a pin that said "kiss me I'm Irish", I didn't cook anything cornbeefy. And I didn't go out drinking the "green beers". I look dayum good in any green and I have green hazel eyes that from a distance look dark and up close look light! A gift from my Irish/French mother! Anyone who dared tried to pinch me this past Saturday got their hands slapped and told the hell off just because I didn't wear green. Ppl really need to realize that NOT everyone on this Earth celebrates every holiday even if they are that specific culture.
On to other news, Randy is adjusting to his new job okay. The kids are now in a more settled routine now that I am on my actual shift and my dad is still being a spoiled lazy ass on occasion, but over all things are going okay. I am still struggling to get a handle on the whole full time mom thing and full time working mom thing and combining them. My house is okay. Randy and the kids got the law smacked down on them over helping me keep the house up. But Randy is still no help on keeping the bills paid up, the appointments in line, and the kid taxi running. Okay he occasionaly takes them up the lane to the bus, it is still to chilly in the mornings for them to walk up the lane.
I love being back to work. Still nto sure if I like having to dress up for work though. It's a call center over all, it's not like the customer's see us or anything! But it gave me an excuse to actually spend some money not only on clothes (nice clothes) but also getting my hair done. I look dayum good anymore! I am still hit and miss on putting make up on. I have never been one for war paint as I call make up. I perfer my skin healthy vs blemished! I have enough moles, chicken pox scars, various other injury scars, and highschool zit craters that I don't need anymore! I have pretty clear skin and always have had pretty clear skin. All my teenage scaring I consider marks of charater and add beauty to my face. I was a lucky one in school........very few zits and very few zit craters.
That is about it for now. Oh I did go out on my first Friday off! My friend Teri took me out to a new Mexican place that recently popped up in the city before we made our way home. Great food for a decent price! Then she took me to a clothing place called Catos. You see them next to any Walmart! I love it! I spent 49 bucks and got; two blouses, a skirt, a pair of black slacks, and a bra to go under one of the blouses. The only thing I paid full price on was the dayum bra! Then this last Saturday, my second day off, one of my co workers at Gateway is only working htere under docs orders to get off of her feet, she is a beautician and she did my hair for me! I got my first perm in over 12 years! It looks fabulous! Since highschool I have kept my hair free of all product and perm chemical and only occasionaly dying it. When your hair is naturaly multi colored like your eyes you get a tad bit sic of the 3-4 layers of color! Plus my hair loves chemical on it....grows so much faster. I am on my second day of not washing it and by tonight I am washing my hair finally. I am not like some other ladies that have to wait the 3-4 days after the perm to wash it. My hair takes curls and holds perms up to two years in a shot. Randy isn't sure if he likes the new me!:D
I have dropped 23 lbs (now down to 197) from december till now and dropped about a size and half in clothing! Yay me! Before I had kids I was a size 10 after kids and not knowning what hte hell was going on before I was dignoised with Type 2 Diabetes, I was up to an 18 at my heaviest (220). Now I am between a 16 and a 14 womans. If I go to the misses section I am in a misses 18 which is fine with me cause there is a difference in misses 18 and a woman's 18!:D A misses 18 is more like a womans 14/16. So here I am loosing weight and inches, still looking my hot MILF self only better, dressing a lot nicer due to work, and now getting my hair done! Next on the list to pamper myself is getting a manicure and pedicure done! After my sister, mom, and I go shopping in Omaha this up coming Saturday!
And if he is a good Christian Saint he probably doesn't drink it and would look down on all the folks who do on his day!
