Girl , I would be glad to be home alone, especially if I was sick! Girl you are doing so many things at one time. I thought I was a multitasker, but you've got me beat! Work in out girl!

You're amother, so you're definitely a multi-tasker...it's nice to have the kids gone but I miss them severely...I don't think I've gone this long without 'em before...makes me kinda sad ya know? But at least now, I can fully concentrate on ME and getting better!

Hey girl! I would like to be home alone for a little while myself.. my kids are driving me nuts, lol. My husband is home so maybe they will bug him for a while, hee hee hee... do u keep kids? U have so much going on all the time girl, you need to take this quite time and get u some much needed rest! I'm home on a Friday nite b/c it's cold and I am tired myself. I may go to bed early tonight. I picked up some more chicken broth a while ago and I picked up one can of beef broth, I'm just gonna try it and see if it's ok I haven't tried it ever, lol... I'll let cha know. Oh, I picked up a 2-liter Diet Sunkist (my fav) and I'm having a glass now and it is sooooo yummy! My family had chicken nuggets and doritos, lol... you can tell I'm not eating, lol. I guess they have to somewhat suffer, but they seem to enjoy that more than if I get in there and bust my butt cooking! I did make brownies two nights in a row on this fast & although it smelled really good, I was strong, I'm so proud of myself these past few days! Get Well Soon Hon!!

I actually am raising 3 kids. two 2yr olds and one 5 yr old. In December, I will also have custody of 2 more children...ages 1 and 4. As for the 3 I have right now, one is my lil brother (2yrs) Devante, and the other two are my nieces (2 & 5 yrs. See, my father is in prison and my brother (my nieces' father) is in prison as well...I have had custody since I was 18 and they showed up in the middle of the night on my doorstep...family is a BIG thing with me...they are the reason I live...

So really, I do alot more than "keep kids" lol I'm basically a surrogate mother...the 2 yr olds call me mommy and I'm not exactly sure how to handle that...since daddy's not comin' home...ever...

awh, girl.. I had no idea! You are a good "mommy" it sounds like! I wish you a lot of luck with the kids. You have a huge heart and that is very important. You are such a good person for doing all that you do for your family. Family is really important to me too. I love my neices and nephews just as much as I love my own kids. If they call you mommy and no one is coming back for them ... then I'd say that you ARE their mommy ... let them call you what they want girl. Even my step daughter wanted to call me mama on the weekends we had her and I let her, although she had a "mama" at home.. she just wanted to be like my kids and not feel out of place. A mama or daddy isn't just the one who actually "made" the kids ... it the person or persons who care for them and who are there for them and put them first and love them ... like you. Again girl, U R sooooo good hearted! I'm really proud of you, God will really bless you for all the good that you do! Be proud! I just learn new things about you all the time don't I?? LOL

I like the names, they are different from the "norm" ... I love to hear baby names and little kids names b/c I love all the variety you hear now. Sometimes, I look through baby names books at the store just to see the new ones, lol. I'm am by no means having another child. 3 of my own and a "grown" step kid is plenty ... couldn't afford anymore even if I wanted them anyway, lol

oh, and I too am the "family sitter" lol... I keep my neices and nephews but yet ... no one ever keeps mine, lol. I guess it's ok though b/c I love em and I want them to love me back .. to have that relationship and to be close when they get older.
