April 28, 2006 The day of my blogging debut...

So, I've been hanging out and reading some really great mommy blogs (what about mommy, Irene's Scene, crouching mommy hidden laundry,chicky, chicky baby,and dooce), and have enjoyed them alot! And I've been thinking that I'd really like to have an outlet for all of my thoughts... it's kind of getting crowded up there inside of my head. Some have said that I have a way with words, so we'll see if anyone reads my blog and agrees. If no one reads, that's okay too, because I will feel better telling someone (even if it's just myself) my thoughts without being interrupted. 10 month olds and 4 1/2 year olds have a way of not understanding a mommy's need to be listened to, atleast not the things she wants to tell... they just aren't the appropriate audience. And my husband.... well, sometimes he has the attention span of a flea. That is unless it's a topic that revolves and directly has something to do with something that will benefit him! So, here goes....

Today is the start of a weekend that I will be left alone to deal with the little lovies yet again. One of my famous quotes is that I don't like being a single parent. But apparently my quote is not heard because this is the 2nd weekend in a row that I have been left to fend for myself. Now, Don't get me wrong, I love my girls. We have fun, and I am learning to just relax and not worry about all of the chores and bills to pay, laundry to do and all of those types of things that I don't quite have the time to do when I get home from work during the week. BUT, I want to have fun as a family too! My hubby just doesn't get it. When I complain, he says,"I know, next weekend you can go and do anything you want, I 'll watch the girls all day." This is not what I want! I tell him this, and he says he understands, but yet never shows any signs of understanding!
My relationship with my hubby and my marriage will be a topic that I write a lot about because currently it is something that is on my mind a majority of the time these days.
I decided to name my blog mommy!mommy!mommy! because many days I feel like the mom of 3, husband included as 3rd child.
Well, I think my first post rambled a bit, but I WILL clarify my thoughts and figure out how I want to do this!
