So I finally got around to getting a new blog. Im not making any promises that this will get updated often but I guess I have to start somewhere.
For those of you who dont know, here is a run down of what has gone on the last few months. We moved from California to Georgia.......what fun that was, lol! Ok it wasn't that bad but im not going to be making that trip anytime soon I can promise you that much!!
We rented our friends house (thankyou Theresa & Josheph) which is right outside one of the gates so it doesnt take James long to get to work. Its a cute house in a great sub division. We have some super nice neighbours.....and some residents I dont like so much. (think huge bugs, snakes, lizards ect)
Alot of you have asked how do I like the south....hmmm well where should I start, lol! The people (most of them) are super friendly and unlike in CA they make the effort to talk to you. Now that been said there is a small matter of what I call Georgia slow ;) At first I didnt get how people could move soooo slow but now I get it, a little bit. Its soooo humid here.....I can handle the heat just fine....but the humidity is gonna kill me I swear it. Oh and then there is the bugs.....those of you who know me well know that I DO NOT DO BUGS! I hate them....I am the biggest sissy walking when it comes to bugs. They also think im the tastiest thing alive cos they bite the crap out of me even when im wearing bug spray. So yeah Im not a huge fan of the south...Im hoping it gets better once my friends arrive.
That really sums it up......I dont do much, unless Kamie invites me along to the park or playgroup. I stay inside with the kids, which drives James insane.....he says im a hermit crab. I just dont want to deal with the kids crap mixed in with the humid weather......it really doesnt make for a nice Leanna, lol! I mean really....my kids DO NOT listen at all, so any trip out with them alone will usually go something like this... Get us all fed, dressed...slap on the sun block and bug spray and then load into car. This is when the first melt down happens.....usually because Adam is looking at Kevin or Kevin touched Adam. Drive 20 + minutes to get where we are going. Once there I unload the kids and off we go.....this is when the second melt down starts....."mum what we doing, can we get this, can we go here" to which I reply my usual "we are going here, no you cant and no we cant". Now because they didnt get the answers they wanted they will start crying, 1 of them will be on the floor the other walking off in another direction and just for fun Ryan will set off crying. It gets worse from there and I usually end up shouting at the kids, dragging them to the car and going home more pissed off than when we first headed out. This is why I just stay at home all day. I would rather stay home and listen to them fight and moan than do it in a public place where everyone is looking.
Well I guess thats really it for now. Im off to make lunch for the kids and fold some laundry.
Oh and this blog im sure will be my venting place....I swear better than a sailor, so be warned this blog may contain foul language and all that jazz :)

Yay, I'm so glad you're back in the blogging realm. I can't wait to read more of your "venting." Entertaining for sure. So glad that your kids fight like mine. "She's looking at me, she's breathing on me, etc, ect." I seriously feel like I'm going to lose it sometimes. Love your pic by the way! You captured their cuteness perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI love the title of the blog! Don't worry about the heat and humidity. The first year is the worst. I remember our first year in south Texas, we didn't leave the house. But by the next summer, it was hot, but it didn't bother us near as bad, we actually got out and about. I am hoping that happens again...it is SOOO hot here. You get used to the creepy crawlers...just don't let your boys know you're scared of them and they'll take care of them for you b/c they aren't scared of them. Lizards don't bother me...they eat cockroaches, so make them your friends. Get your house sprayed often and you'll never see more than a dead or half-dead roach. I can't do anything about the tarantulas or snakes, just don't leave your door open and you won't find them in your house! Thats my advice. I had a tarantula AND a snake in my house at one point in Brownsville!
