Life always wins

Hey world it's been a while!! Hope all is well on your side of the world.. Kids are on summer vacation here and well all my kids are moving up in grade I am definitely not excited that I will have two in high school!! We live in a small town small community and it's a very lonely place for sure!! Lots of pros and cons with that the upside my kids get to stay with the same kids growing up but there is a downside to that too!! Kids are just mean.. Not all of them but a very good majority... And there isn't a dang thing you can do to make that better!! And how just brushing some cobwebs off missing my oldest friends... Hopefully they miss me too!!

Well hello 2014!!

So far we are off to a great start this year!! So many surprises so far and it's only January!! Whoop whoop!! I have so many things to do this and it's only just beginning!! My daughter Daija is part of wonderful travel team and the Coach is wonderful!! My oldest daughter is doing spectacular in High school. Still can't believe I will have two there next year!! My 6th grader is passing her classes!! Wish I could find a way to light the fire under her!! So much potential going to waste!! My son is in 4th this year and still and an all A student!! How amazing is that!! So blessed!!

World Series meet Daija!!

Well hello blogging world....life like always has me flying in so many directions.We are just getting back from Gainsville where my daughter participated in the 12u world series... She did an amazing job pitching.. .. we ventured off to UF and to see the excitement on her face was priceless... I really believe my girl can do anything ..college softball and professional softball.. words cant describe how proud of her I am.. I know getting her scouted will take tons of time but Im up to that challenge...Great job Daija Irizarry!!

And today makes 3

Yay for me three days of blogging this week!! I'm on a roll well kind of!!! Lol not sure how long I'll stick with it no promises. today was definitely no ordinary Saturday!!! It rained so much and my daughter had a softball game... It was not the ending I expected but then again life never goes as planned. Im considering it's better not to make plans.. Hope you have a great weekend!!! Lots of love Monica

Pay it forward

So yesterday was forward amazing day!!! I took the girls to get breakfast which is our normal Thursday routine and as I go to pay the lady says your order has been paid for... I was in shock yet grateful at the same time!! It was a blessing, one that I was sooo grateful!! They call this kind of thing pay it forward. I call it simply a blessing... I have a habit of always helping others.. It's just part of who I am.. I can't help it.. I don't do it to get anything n return... To the stranger that paid for my meal at chick fil a thank you from the bottom of my heart....

Wow life really has a weird sense of humor

So it's been so long since I blogged and well honest sometimes life just stinks what can i say but the truth. In looking over some choices I have made in the last few years I feel like I have lost my way. I don't know but things have changed for me in the last few weeks and I need to move forward and change with so.. Wish me luck and best wishes to you all lots of love....

School Dayz

Back to school and the days are crazy hectic!! I feel like I spend more time in my car then anything else I surely cant wait till it dies down .. I`m going crazy.. Some of the other parents clearly don't have any idea how to drive and it just drives me nuts!! seriously.. Softball fall season will be here soon and eek I`m just not ready because then my evenings will be crazy hectic too .. lol just my luck!! Then there are all the fees and supplies it surely would be nice to have a money tree because our account is clearly running on fumes.. lol

No Ordinary Sunday!!

I just love this cute backpacks for my kids aren't the Nerds soo cute!!!

i was just thinking Its Sunday Already.. ugh I am still not done school shopping for the kids.. I have hesitation though because it seems like every year they give you an ideal list then you go to meet the teacher night and they change up on you... I hate that sooo much I think.. and this is just totally my opinion... that the teachers should get their lists done before school ends so that they can mail it out to the parents a month before school starts.. that isn't asking too much is it?? Tax free weekend is nearing the end and well I see no point in buying anything else since the lists always change... So Its Sunday and as I wish it would be a great day to sleep in and do nothing it never seems to workout that way .. I get up early and go here and there but seriously drag all day long... Lucky me huh!!! hope you had a better Sunday then me!!!

One Week left

One week left and its back to school.. I have totally slacked this summer and my kids still dont have much of what they need for school!! So lucky me waiting till last minute.. I am soooo behind with everything so this is definitely some icing on the cake. My Two girls are off to middle school and I feel completely lost. They don't allow backpacks here and I'm just praying that gives no reason for my girls to slack off because at the end of the day .. I am a very strict parent!! The bad thing is that my health is not so great lately .. the worst part is that i`m starting to give up on my fight.. I would much rather stay in bed then do much of anything which in turn means my thyroid none the less is acting a fool again!! Lucky me!! I have lost a good amount of weight but that in turn isn't helping lately .. I wanted to lose another 30 pounds but here i am stuck in fact I think I gain some pounds I am afraid to look that's for sure!! Any how I wish you luck .. so please I need some too.....

Words...

Life is all about moments!! There are good moments and bad moments!! Some days you have to remember why you keep fighting for those memorable moments!! These days its hard to remember the good moments when your heart is still aching from the bad moments. For me, my children help me keep focus!! They are the reason I refuse to give up!! the love I have for them are like nothing I have ever experienced ... they complete me!!

Where does the time go???

You know sometimes it seems life gets worst before it gets better but at times it is just all way too confusing!! My kids are growing up before my eyes and I too have grown up some with them. They inspire me to want more in life and I am a better person thanks to them!! Soon they will be starting school and I am looking forward to a break from having them home 24/7 but I`m not looking forward to middle school and all the drama that goes with it!! Am I wrong to want to keep my kids just that kids?? I maybe shelter them too much but as a kid I had to grow up fast and I just wish they weren't in such a rush!! I really need to get back on track with so many things ... blogging is certainly one of them.....

Winter sucks

I seriously hate the cold weather therfore well..today was not a great day. So i am blogging for real wow i cant even believe it ....

Sorry again I have been MIA...

I am so sorry for being MIA.. I have been keeping up with my project 365 just more on my facebook then anything else . I have allow my life to consume me somewhat and actually the month of April is a very sad month for me .. I seem to climb into a dark place mentally during that month.. I am slowing coming out of it and getting back on track... =) go me!!! lmao I will get back on track maybe even step back into some old hobbies I have parted with .. I miss alot but change makes somethings come to light a little brighter.. .. anyhow its late for me and I need to get some rest ...
byeeeee....

Oh where oh where have I been????

Oh so we moved about an hour away from our old place and honest I have never been so heartbroken... I miss my house sooo much and well this week was the final days for us to get out ... yes I lost my house to the bank ... it was so hard for my babies... they are in a new school .. sharing a room and well lately just everything is going wrong... everything....so this week I have to prepare to lose my car... and well It just really has me completely stressed... its going to complicate so many things but I have no other choice nor help. If fact most people have turned their backs to me right now when I need the most support. Im all alone in a new city and well a complete emotional mess.. I try not to cry when kids arent around but honest .. Im just sooo sad.. ok well I am just rambling away..

hope you all have a great week!!
