Hooray for a long weekend, although we were busy busy, haha.
Friday I went out to clean for a friend
Saturday we did a lot as a family
Sunday was laundry
Monday we did laundry too
Tuesday we went grocery shopping
And here we are at Wednesday. I didn't get to do the writing I wanted to do because of how busy we were, and how much we were out of the house. So I'm gonna pick up where I left off and just write until I feel like quiting. Now, don't get me wrong: I've only missed 3 days, and this would be day 4. But who knows. I might write a bunch of the numbers today, since I'm sure I'll miss more days. It is the school year after all. And I do have a LOT I need to do around the house. SOO, yeah. Here goes.

14: Something that upsets you
Honestly, this one is kinda complicated. I've got a few things that upset me on a regular basis, so I'm gonna write them all out.
The first is people saying they will do something and then not doing it because of some lame made up excuse. If you didn't wanna do it, just say so. Trust me, that hurts a hell of a lot less than letting me get my hopes up only to smash them to the ground. I'm ok with rejection. Believe me, it's really not as bad in real life as it is in your head. And I'll honestly hate you less if you just tell me straight up that you don't want to go, k? Thanks.
Second is expecting me to just drop everything to do something for you. To completely change the way I do things at the snap of your fingers because YOU had plans that you expect me to do too. Life doesn't work that way, k? You can't expect me to just drop everything to do something for you - especially when you refuse to do the same for me. That's not the way life works, and not the way I work. And truly, it never will be. Family is the worst about this one. Still love them though, just wish they understood that things just don't work the way they want them to work just because they want it. There are a lot of things I want that I still don't have. Just saying, haha.
And the third is expecting me to do something for you AFTER you've refused to do things with/ for me so many times before. It's not gonna happen. Unless it's just something that I really wanna do, it's not going to happen! And I don't really care if that pisses you off. Put yourself in MY shoes for a second. If you'd asked repeatedly for help, for company, for a shoulder to cry on or a hand up after life kicks you down - and were denied - would YOU jump at the chance to do something for that person? Yeah, didn't think so. Just saying again. NOT GONNA HAPPEN!
Those are the things that upset me the most. Thankfully most of the people in my life KNOW that, and do their best not to do any of them. And I LOVE YOU GUYS for that! :)

15 - Something that makes you feel better
When I've had one of "THOSE" days - You know the ones, where nothing is going right, and no matter what you do you don't feel good enough or you feel like you're always going to be stuck where you're at and things will never get better - the things that make me feel better are as follows:
Talking with my friends/ best friends. - They have a wonderful way of making me laugh at the things life has thrown at me and making it easier to handle because I know I've got someone there who's got my back - even if it's from MILES away.
Hugging my girlies - Because their hugs could cure any bad day because I remember that the blessings truly outweigh the bad in my life. Even at our worst, we always had people willing to come out of the woodwork to help us out. And I feel truly blessed about that, and I'm doing my best to pay it forward to others in need.
Playing a good console game - Like God of War, Champions of Norath, Blur, Enslaved, Katamari (any of them, because that's funny as hell, haha), the Lego games (cause they're funny as hell too), or Skylanders. They help distract me from the real world, and just let me enjoy things for a while.

16 - Something that makes you cry
Just writing a list. I'm sure you can understand them if you really think about it at all. So I'm not really gonna write about any of them.
Pain
Death
Loneliness
Anger
Frustration

17 - A first
This year was the first spring break where both girls stayed with my mom and dad in Arkansas for spring break. It was the first real vacation that Ruben and I have had since having the girls and him working at the hotel. We had a whole week without the girls to do what we wanted when we wanted to do it, without having to worry about when we had to be back to pick the girls up. We could sleep when we wanted, get up when we wanted, and just go. It was fantastic. :) And it's going to be a yearly thing now. So that'll be nice, and always something to look forward to. :)

And the next one is kinda hard, so I think I'm gonna stop for now and think on it. Might be a couple days before I pick it back up again, but I'll be back. :)
LOVE YOU GUYS
