#4 Carly & Football

Those two words should not be in one sentence! EVER...

So today was the playoff for the Packers / Giants game to see who was moving on to play the next team for the Super Bowl. Some things that I will need to remember for next time.

- Watch the commercials!! So apparently there is a commercial that has a Packers player ... it is Statesfarm. Anyone ever see this commercial? Well, in the commercial the Packers player says "Discount Double Down". I got a phone call in the middle of this game so I missed most of the commercials (and we were fast forwarding thru the rest of them). When my husband realized that the Packers were losing, someone posted this on my FB page. I asked my husband what that meant. Oops ...

- Now is not the time to ask all of these questions. During the important game, it is NOT acceptable to ask your husband (who is cheering on the losing team) if the players can see the lines on the field. Not the white lines, but the colorful lines.

- It is NOT ok, to forward thru the men who are talking between plays. Ok, I am a DVR Junkie!!!! So out of habit, I will fast forward thru the commercials like it is no ones business. I kind of think I'm a pro at it. I know exactly when to stop so that the programs begins again. Well, those guys that are talking between the actual game and the commercials ... apparently they have something important to say. (per my husband... but all I heard was blah blah blah)

- Do NOT invite your baby daddy over if he is on the opposing side. Just in case you didn't know, I get along with my husbands ex-wife and my husband gets along with my sons father. HOWEVER ... all bets are off when they are for the opposing team. Baby Daddy says to husband "HA ha ha, you married her!" In my quick defense, I said "YO! I dated you first!" (oops ... ) Husband was not too thrilled with the comment. DAMN!


Ok, just so that you know, my Father is a Steelers fan, my Husband is a Packers fan, my son is a Eagles fan and my step son is a Saints fan ... this is kind of exhausting!!! Gabriel (my youngest) is a Packers fan because he likes the colors yellow and green. Not because he knows any better ...

Wait, was I not supposed to say that honey?

I stopped by Farm Fresh on the way home, today. Of course, I was on my bike.  I've gotten pretty used to weird looks. A girl walking around with a helmet and an Icon chest protector ... most of the time, they are looking for whatever guy I MUST BE riding with. Standing in line with my shampoo and hairspray, I heard a lady behind me say, "What do you ride?" Now, people who don't ride will say, "What kind of bike do you have?" ... I've learned that other riders will ask "What do you ride?" I was tired, on my way home from a late day at work and hungry. I didn't have time for a chit chat about bikes. Not today. I didn't turn around all the way. I said over my shoulder "A Yamaha YZF 600r." The lady said "Oh, thats nice dear." Part of me was annoyed at her tone. Another part of me felt disappointed in myself. I would hate if someone ignored my grandmother like that. I swallowed my pride and turned around. She was...

Learning From Gabriel ...

By
I had rough morning with Gabriel. I let my 6yo get the better of me. I know he isn't a morning person, and neither am I. I went out of the routine this morning and let him watch cartoons BEFORE he was ready to go. (at the time it seemed like a good idea, don't judge). Time caught up to us and then it was a mad dash to get everything ready only to realize we were ahead of schedule. That just made me more upset ... that I was upset and I had no real reason to be. UGH. I left without hugging and kissing him goodbye. I made it to the highway before God told me I should call him and wish him a happy day. I called, apologized for fussing at him and I hoped he would have a great day. What he said next has been on my mind alllll morning. He said "We had a rough morning because you forgot to come into my room and pray with me last night. You have to remember to pray with me. When you pray with me, I have a good day the next day." I don't take Gabr...

Day 5

By
Day 5 has to be about my favorite memory. THIS IS SOOOOO HARD! I have such a wonderful and fullfilled life that for me to pick one wouldn't be very fair. I wanna say that my favorite memory has to be the day that D was born. I love my baby ... he is amazing and he saved my life. I've done everything I could to make him have a wonderful life (including marrying a white guy! LOL) ... He is my wonderful baby ... he has such a beautiful smile and he is the silliest of my children... He and I have been thru so much together! Even thru it all he loves me and I love him.
