A girl's gotta stay busy.

So I managed to over do it once again & pulled some muscles in my neck/shoulder area. A friend who is a doc stopped by on her way home to check on me just in case. She told me to alternate between a heat pack & an ice pack & to take it easy. Well duh. Although in my case a reminder is welcome. I forget to easily just how much I do every day because no one else seems to notice very often.

As a stay at home mom of an 8yo boy w/ adhd, & a 2yo girl who is exceptionally bright & creative but possibly slightly autistic, I stay pretty busy just being Mom. However I also make/sell wire/chain maille style jewelry http://craftymama.deviantart.com/ , sew, write, sketch http://craftymama2.deviantart.com/, and do pretty much anything else that needs to be done including removing mice, checking for robbers, baby sitting, and more for a family friends, & neighbors. Needless to say you'd think I'd pass out once I get the kiddos to bed every night. Instead my mind doesn't quit so neither do I. I figure if I'm going to be awake I might as well get stuff done.

Of course on top of all that I'm still expected to do almost all the house work, minus things like taking out the trash. *rolls eyes* Unfortunately I generally let those things slide a bit & give preference to my art but thankfully I have a very tolerant husband, lol. Not to say I don't put up with plenty from him too but thats another blog entry entirely, hehe.

My son & hubby both have adhd which has been a bit of a challenge but we're working on it. My daughter is so young none of the pediatricians will test her for anything yet. I however have been around children of all ages my whole life & can usually tell if a child has special needs. Its not hard to spot if you pay attention. In addition to all that I have a rare disorder of my own (you can ask about it if you want. I don't mind sharing.) It has been a challenge but it has prepared me for taking care of my own family & their special needs & for that I am thankful. However dealing with everyone's needs just adds more for me to do so if I ever seem a bit off or eccentric sorry but I've got a million things on the brain.


Esh. I'm babbling huh? Sorry. This is my first real blog entry & I'm not sure what to write atm. The next one will be more interesting. I just felt the need to explain in more than 140 characters how I hurt my shoulder, lol. ^_~

Grammar say what?

Here is a sentence I'm trying to write but it isn't coming out properly. Help please! Lol. Kieran is one of the story's main characters. He has chin length raven black hair streaked with silver at the temples. The character the sentence is describing has hair the same length but it is a lighter shade of black, almost a dark, dark brown/black mix. Should I keep it that way or should I just make things easier & change his hair color? XD Thanks in advance for your help!

A tall, impossibly pale man with hair cut to his chin just like Kieran’s but lighter leaned against the wall for a moment before walking up next to Kieran’s chair.

Girls just wanna have fun... *sings off key*

@Crafty_mama_2: Why is it when a gal is single u could throw urself at guys & get ignored but when ur in a relationship guys come out like ants at a picnic?


@In10tionologist That is so true. I have no idea why. LOL It's like it's easier to get a job when you already have one. Same concept.

@Sharlendoble: Because men want someone who they don't have to commit to.


Great answers girls!

I need more feedback! Comments are welcome!
