I love Avrie's face in that picture. She kinda looks like she's had injections in her lips. And I think I look funny in the first so that's why these are here.
So I decided to create my own tag. I'm not exactly sure why, just wanted to. So do it if you want, or maybe even if you don't.
Here are a few things you might not know about me, not all favorite things about me but this is the way it is!
*I weigh: (gulp) 146 lbs.
*I want to weigh: 130 (I would love 125 but let's get real here!)
*I yell at my kids at my wits end. And then I feel bad and either cry or go talk to them about emotions or both.
*I have to have the bed made every day. If night comes and it hasn't been made, I have to make it before I get in. And Glade can't make it, he doesn't do it right.
*I look like I am dying of a disease if I don't have make-up on. Not a natural beauty.
*I have really bad PMS. I cannot be logical or rational during this beautiful time. This is usually when I yell at the kids and then cry about it. Glade can't do anything right when I feel this way.
*I haven't cooked consistently since Brockston was born. I used to have a menu planned for the month and followed it. Not anymore. Brockston will be 4 in March.
*I am high on drugs right now! Muscle relaxers for the kink in my upper back so I can move. I may regret this post when I'm sober!! (te he)
*I am a computer retard. I'm getting better, but I don't know what I'm doing most of the time.
*I have to ask for help when I am helping McKinley with her 3rd grade homework. (not all the time, but sometimes)
*We have been on time to church 3 times since Avrie was born. Sometimes I don't want to go, but I do.
*I hate doing dishes and laundry. I would rather scoop Sophie poop that do either of those. Luckily, Glade does the dishes when he is in town. Laundry is another story. It piles up to the point I have bought clothes for the kids cuz none of them were clean. My mom was here for a day and helped me while I have been unable to move. Thanks Mom!
And those are a few things about me that you might not have known and probably didn't want to know. Oh well, you take the good with the bad. Well, hopefully! If you know of any weird things I do, feel free to comment and tell me about them. I will probably think of more later, I will add them when I do. I wish we could be honest more often. This is just the way it is...not always peaches and cream!
But I have a great life and I love being me! I am simply fabulous!

You were at the hospital getting your neck looked at yesterday, weren't you? I was there getting stitches in my 21 month olds head! He's officially branded as one of us. I think you took my journal and wrote the words from it. The WHOLE thing. The PMS, yelling, laundry(I was just at the laundry mat because my laundry was overwhelming me, and my washer and dryer work!), dishes, all of it. How are we so much alike?
Haha. Ok so I needed a good laugh today so thanks for that. But I already knew most of that, and I think the reason you cry after yelling at you kids is because you are an emotional sissy! :) (I do it too, but only with Taryn, is that bad?) I wish I were drugged right now, you are lucky I don't have any drugs but I could use some because my friendly monthly visiter came yesterday. Anyways, I like your tag better than the one I posted so I'm gonna do that one.
yeah you are nothing like Julie. She makes dinner from scratch every night and has it on the table by 6 pm. She cleans the house everyday. The beds are always made. All laundry (once she has enough to make a load) is washed, folded, put away in no time. She never compains. She is very humble. In fact if you where to ask her about this she would probably deny it.
I love your honesty. I'm probably not going to do this tag because I am not going to put down how much I weigh. Hee.
Yeah, the weight, I don't know about, but I have a similar tag to do. I am trying to think of some funny things to say about myself. Maybe I'll have to call you guys to get some ideas, or I'll just steal some of yours. Amen to the dishes--that's definitely my least fav. chore. I hope you have a few good days at your mom's. If you get bored and want to come up to IF, let me know. You are always welcome and we could always scrap and go shopping to Roberts!
every person needs to have a Shari In their lives to move them along... and to let us all know that no matter what we may have goin on in our lives its okay... and being honest about things is refreshing. Even if its something that we dont want to share! So thanks!! It sure made my day and helps me to be thankful for the Shari In my life! your great! love you and see you SOON!!!
I love how Trent lied about pretty much everything on the previous post about me. We pretty much don't eat dinner before 8, and a lot of the time Trent ends up making it because I can't figure out anything to make. I'm lucky if I get in the shower before noon. I usually don't even make the bed cause I figure I'm just going to get back in it later and mess it up so why waste the time. And don't get me strated on dishes and laundry. I just hate that it's never ending with those two things.
I'm kinda laughing at everyone! I actually am like you, Shari, with making my bed, and I don't mind doing laundry or dishes. I HATE vacuuming, mopping my kitchen floor and dusting! I do hate cooking, though. I have the bad PMS, too, and have been working with my doctor about that, so I'm on drugs too! Hee hee!:) Oh, and just so you know, I think Shari is awesome!
Shari you are NORMAL! Here is my take on your blog and life as a mom in general. Hope you enjoy. Everyone yells at their kids. I try not to do it in the middle of the grocery store where their are witnesses. Good moms feel bad about if afterwards. Learning to apologize to our kids teaches them that everyone makes mistakes and everyone should apologize when they mess up. People who love never ending laundry and never ending dirty dishes are sick in the head! I will allow those who enjoy cooking that bit of insanity. Trying to cook with little kids around is the pits. Why is it that our kids always need you "RIGHT NOW!" when you are trying to cook, clean or talk on the phone? Even the best of husbands will never just "see" what needs to be done and "do it". It just isn't in their nature. But most of them will do what we "ask/tell" them to do. Sometimes cheerfully, sometimes not. It is OK for them not to be cheerful about it as long as they do it anyway. It is OK for kids to wear dirty clothes once in a while. They will survive if they don't shower/bathe everyday. Cereal for dinner once in awhile is a legitimate menu choice. Whatever is dirty tonight will still be there to be cleaned tomorrow. Most moms have an overactive guilt gene, especially LDS moms. Kids know exactly what buttons to push to make you crazy.
BEING A MOM IS THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD!
I love you Shari.
Shari, I loved that! i know this is late, so i don't know if you will get this...sorry, just got the internet again. anyway, I'm so glad I got to hang out with you a few times over the last month! You are so great and i hope we can see more of each other!
