Jacqueline Marie. 25. Married. Redhead. Canadian. Optimist. Mother of two boys & a baby girl.
Here you will find my own drawings and photos, my occasional 5 things feature, general stuff about my day; and of course posts about me, and my family.
Remember that you can’t change the world after you have kids. You die. You can no longer accomplish your dreams. You can never achieve greatness. Your life is basically over. You failed at life. You’re done.
EVERYONE MUST BE A SUPERHERO.
EVERYONE must get an amazing education and an amazing career as a scientist-doctor-astronaut-teacher, and no one must ever, EVER settle for less than absolute perfection and a seven-digit yearly income.
Because, you know, no one could possibly be content staying at home and caring for their family.
Dany felt a lightness in her chest. I will never bear a living child, she remembered. Her hand trembled as she raised it. Perhaps she smiled. She must have, because the man grinned and shouted again, and others took up the cry. “Mhysa!” they called. “Mhysa! MHYSA!” They were all smiling at her, reaching for her, kneeling before her. “Maela,” some called her, while others cried “Aelalla” or “Quathei” or “Tato,” but whatever the tongue it all meant the same thing. Mother. They are calling me Mother.
Bought the loot bag stuff for Isaac’s party today, since Monday was the RSVP deadline.
Come home and find out two more people are coming.
Good thing I bought extras… but now I don’t have ANY extras. If any other kids show up, I don’t know what I’m going to do. Some stuff came in bigger batches than I needed, I guess they will just get semi-empty loot bags? (Honestly, I go overboard with these things anyway).
Is it just me, or does the photoset drag & drop rearrange feature SUCK?
It is so freaking laggy, I can’t stand it. It takes longer to click and drag two photos into the proper order, than it does to upload the whole set of 5 in the first place. How does that even make sense?
I miss being able to just select the layout from a menu.
This will either turn out awesome, or horrible.
Can’t wait to use it all, but at the same time, I really like how my hair turned out this time and I’m afraid of ruining it. The red is really natural looking and not fake-y purple like most red dyes I’ve used.
We’re going camping in July, and sorely needed a bigger tent. Our old one was a bit too small for the four of us two years ago, it definitely wouldn’t fit five. So, I picked up this tent, sun shade, 2 chairs and 2 sleeping bags at Walmart for under $100. The kids help me set it up in the backyard to check it out. It’s so much bigger than our old one!
Yesterday at work, we got on the topic of mushrooms. Pretty much everyone on my shift hates them, or only likes them on certain things like pizza or whatever.
I was the outcast, because I like mushrooms on/in all kinds of things. Steak, pretty much any sandwich, pizza, soup, meat pies… Apparently, the weirdest thing I like mushrooms in was grilled cheese.
Mushrooms in grilled cheese sandwiches isn’t weird, right? Right???
Brought a takeout tray with chicken fingers, fries, coleslaw, and pickles to work for dinner. The little plum sauce tipped over and spilled all into the coleslaw :( :( :(
