The Struggle is real as a parent

Any parent knows it's not easy. It can be challenging on a daily basis, however it does have it's moments of being awesome. To those who don't have kids sometimes I honestly envy you. Don't get me wrong I love my family but days like today challenge who I am and challenges me to do the right thing instead of something much worse. So this morning my 9 year old couldn't find anything to wear. This is a continued struggle every few weeks. However this morning when she is screaming inches from my face I had a decision to make, I could 1. Act on my instincts and smack her in the face as I would anyone else in my face. 2. Keep calm and let her finish so I could calmly explain to her that I had given her every opportunity to have some of her clothes washed. Yes I am one of those mom's who is teaching my kids responsibility and making them learn what it's like to work for the things you want. Now she didn't like that answer of course because I'm holding

Let your Kiddo's play on the computer & Keep your files safe!

So I have been seeing it more and more on Social Media Sites, blogs and everywhere else, How to keep kids safe online and protect your computer from their accidents. For the last couple of years now I have been using a product called Magic Desktop.  When I was looking for a way to limit screen time, let them play their games or learn online all without me having to worry what they may get into or have them accidentally destroy my files. I happened to just stumble upon Magic Desktop through a search and I am so glad that I did. Not only was it affordable but it allowed me a way to setup limits on their screen time, and that they have to do some learning before any of the "fun" games would unlock. I can even setup that they can't access the window's desktop or search the internet outside of when and what I setup. This program is great especially for younger kids and does have a lot of fun interesting things to do. So if you are looking for a fun, easy and cheap way

Today's Public School System?!?

I'm finding myself getting more and more frustrated with the public school system. Now granted I work for our district as a Nutritional Service Aide, but this as granted me access to really see the inside works of the schools. I've made sure to be active in my children's school because I want to know what's going on in my children's lives. One of the things I can say is SCREW this Common Core B.S. Bring back common sense. I understand that it can be important for some students to know where the numbers come from and how to turn a multiplication into an addition problem for easier solving. However it takes twice the amount of time to get the same answer. I know it's not only me who is frustrated a lot of the teacher's at my children's schools are frustrated as well. They see the kids struggling to understand but all they get told is keep pushing, hurry get through this lesson. It really is making me think that maybe I need to go back to homeschooling my

I just have to share with you the wonderful essential oils from barefrut. Not only are they affordable but they are always adding great New products. So I joined with them after reading tons of reviews about their products. In the picture you can see my first purchase. I received all of those products plus one (not shown) for about $20 with their amazing deals.  I must say it was pretty fast shipping as well. About a week if that. It really was like Christmas all over again. I love love love the ready balms!!! I used the peppermint for a headache I had and it did seem to work. Last night my youngest was having trouble calming down and going to sleep. So I let her smell some of the calming I had applied to my wrist and she honestly started to calm down. So then I went and got the sleeping balm and applied a small amount to get wrist, she was asleep within 30 minutes. It was amazing! I highly recommend this company and their products! Keep an eye out for th

Alrighty well I decided to try and write a blog. This should be interesting. As a busy mom who is raising two girls and works and is always looking for the side hussle I decided why not share my stories with you. So please feel free to join me in my struggles with daily life, my tips and reviews for things I do try, random rants and anything else along the way. If you have suggestions, ideas or anything else I look forward to getting an email about it. Often I may ask for your public opinion on certain things that maybe I haven't tried but am interested in. So on we go to our new adventure and I welcome you to walk along it with me!
