(or The Great Laundry Scandal of 2010)
This morning I was looking for one of my shirts and a pair of undies and was having no luck at all. Since Becca tends to wear my clothes I went up to her room to seek out something to cover myself with. (They are with their dad.. I’m not walking around naked around them.) Her room looked pretty neat and tidy until I opened the closet.
Oh Momma!
6-8 full baskets of clean clothes were stacked up from floor to shelf. Her chore is the laundry. Doesn’t even have to fold them just sort them out so everyone can grab their pile and take them to their room. This is at least a months worth of laundry.
I yelled for Jase to come upstairs and I wish I’d have had a camera to capture the look on his face. I’m still giggling. She’s going to be soooo grounded! Especially since he just complimented her on doing such a great job. Guess you shouldn’t judge the work by how empty the laundry room is.
This does bring up an issue. How much clothing we have in this house that we can go a month and still have clothes to wear. *Jase wants me to mention he washes his own clothes so he is exempt*
Spring cleaning here I come.
Still kicking…
I’m doing really well. I’m down to 13 cigs a day which is WHOA! That’s less than a pack a day. Not bad! I have only cheated once. There was 20 mins left on the clock and I went ahead and smoked then went to bed. Not going to beat myself up over it.
I’m drinking 2 bottles of water a day and I’m down to less than 2 Cokes/day. I know, I know! I need to drink more fluids. I’m getting there. The whiteheads on my cheeks are almost completely cleared up so… YAY!
Jase is really sick and it sucks so much. He can barely breathe and has gone through 2 boxes of Kleenex in 1 day. His eyes are swollen and red and he looks stoned much of the time. Poor thing… it’s kicking his ass. He’s missing work and he’s stressed out about it. I hope it clears up soon.
I did not have a dream about cheating on my husband last night. I did not have sexual relations with that man in my head. I did not lie about it when my husband asked me point blank. I did not wake up screaming “NO” at him.
In the words of the great Shaggy… It wasn’t me.
Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
I’m Cherryrebel & Jase is Ceer.
CherryRebel 79: First I kept waking up cuz in my head I was trying to keep track of Mormon wives and who had what kid. (We’ve been watching Big Love)
ceer778: awwww 
CherryRebel 79: Then me, mom dad, and the kids spent the night at J’s (ex-husband) brother’s house. Mom, dad, and I went somewhere then somehow I was driving and trying to evade a cop. I succeeded with some Nascar worthy stunts. We got out of the van and went off on foot. When we passed a place holding auditions with a ton of hot blondes outside dad asked me if i knew them & if they were my friends. I didn’t have the heart to tell him i had no friends.
CherryRebel 79: Did i mention I was pushing him in a stroller?
ceer778: uhm
CherryRebel 79: or that the kids were freaking out in the backyard because they thought they were hearing Satan
ceer778: holy fuck
CherryRebel 79: turns out it was a monster truck rally few blocks over
ceer778: Thats some fucking David Lynch type shit there
CherryRebel 79: And that I found $150 in my purse and gave it to mom because she’s the one who gave it to me a year before?
ceer778: no, David Lynch WISHES he had your dreams
CherryRebel 79: Who the fuck is David Lynch?
ceer778: Twin peaks guy
ceer778: makes fucked up movies
CherryRebel 79: Well I skipped the part where we woke up at J’s house cuz that seemed NORMAL! (NIGHTMARE)
CherryRebel 79: OH OH OH!
ceer778: hehe
CherryRebel 79: OK so when I “lived” there before I’d had a fish tank setup. The other fish kept picking on this tiger/suckerfish type thing I had so I tried to be merciful and just put him and his lil house on the floor so he’d die instead of suffer over and over.
CherryRebel 79: Well when I woke in J’s house I looked over and the damn fish was floating around his house up in the air completely alive and cheery
CherryRebel 79: Not in a Nemo way though, bitch had teeth
CherryRebel 79: I just watched him floating in the air a while. Then he tried to bite me.
ceer778: ha!
ceer778: zomg lady
CherryRebel 79: it was cool
CherryRebel 79: it all made perfect sense
ceer778: thats sum crazy shiot
Let the crazy nicotine patch induced dreams begin!

I have a crush on the UPS man because he supplies me with my other less annoying addiction. BOOKS!
On the sidebar I have my already read books and now is my Planning to read shelf! Is it wrong to sniff books before you read them? If it is I don’t want to be right!
It’s not to late to join in this years DragonDreamer’s Lair Book Challenge!
You have just 4 more days to join in the Sock It To Me sock exchange over at my BFF Kym’s blog! DO IT!
Until my quit date.
I told Jase a few minutes ago that he should check my blog that I’d made an announcement. He read it, looked at me in shock, then turned to the kids and yelled, “RUN FOR THE HILLS! SAVE YOURSELVES!”
We’ve been through this before and it wasn’t pretty. I screamed at him for leaving coffee in the coffee pot all day. WTF I don’t even drink coffee so why should I have cared?
I will try not to bore you guys to death with this stuff but I think my blog is going to be a good way to channel my emotions during this time. Maybe I should start a side blog.
Cigarettes have been a part of my life for so long. I started when I was 15 and now I am 30. It’s gotten to the point that I am smoking 2 packs a damn day. The problem is that I sit in my house 24.7 and mindlessly smoke.
First step: Cut back! No more reaching for my pack without even thinking about it. I have a kitchen timer next to me and when it goes off every hour I can have a cigarette. I do think it might take flight across my living room because the ticking is LOUD!!
To make sure I don’t do the Zombie Smoke I have relocated my cigs to a safe area out of my reach. That means if I want a cig I have to make a conscious decision to get my fat ass up and go get it. Maybe I should put the timer with them?
All the stop smoking tips talk about avoiding the situations that lead you to smoke. I’d have to be cryogenically frozen for that to be possible. Going to deal with it one day at a time. Even though I have not fully quit yet I am taking the steps necessary to making it happen.
ATTN: I have started the side blog in case anyone wants to watch the freak out!
It’s about doing something for those I love. What better day to show my love than on my blogoversary and Valentines Day.
I have the gum, the patches, and a bit of Chantix left from the time I quit before.
Now I just need the will power and the support of everyone in my life.
I was able to quit as soon as I found about my pregnancies but went back soon after their births. I’d say within a year. So I know it can be done!
I don’t want this anymore.
