So if you've been following this blog (which I know you have), you know that Mr. Cranky Pants and I have had our ups and downs lately, well actually just a lot of downs. I am happy to report though, that since the fight with Mr. Idiot, Mr. Cranky Pants and I have not had any more super nova melt downs.
Insert huge sigh of relief here!
I know it seems a like a small thing, but it's monumental to me and I am so thankful that that rough ride is over. In fact, since getting into it with Mr. Idiot, Mr. Cranky Pants and I have been that much closer, that much more supportive, and that much more loving. It's wonderful.
It's like our honeymoon phase all over again.
There's flowers and little birds everywhere. Ok, well not really, but it's been pretty darn awesome. And maybe that's the point. Every relationship needs to go through its ups and downs, especially the downs, in order to truly appreciate what you have.
I mean don't get me wrong. I love and appreicate Mr. Cranky Pants so much, but since we've gone through and over our obstacles, it's just so much more real, so much easier to put my finger on, just so.much.more. And I love it.
So today is a short post, and more griping about the Little Monster, my undone projects, my projects in progress, and life in general later. I'll just leave you with the lyrics to these songs... perfect for my feelings about Mr. Cranky Pants lately. Also on my playlist, Hey There Delilah, 1234, Chasing Pavements, Lucky, My Funny Valentine, Til There Was You.....
MAKE YOU FEEL MY LOVE (originally written by Bob Dylan, but check out Adele's version)
When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you
Haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong
I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love
The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are throwing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing
Like me yet
I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
HALO (by Beyonce, I know know, it's Beyonce)
Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your faceBaby
I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Halo, halo
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

What We Lose When Time Flies.........
My Goodness and my goodness! The last two weeks have been so intense, it's left me without any time to sit down and vent, er, ahem, I mean blog. Things have just been coming at me at left and right, and once I wrangle one item, another one popped up just a quick!
Here is the Reader's Digest recap of my past two weeks:
1. Get the Little Monster's teeth fixed
2. Have Mrs. S and family plus my in-laws over for the weekend
3. Recooperate from the weekend
4. Pull my hair out trying to get Mrs. S b-day suprise finished on time
5. Fight with Mr. Cranky Pants
6. Arrange a Girl's Nite Out (GNO) for me and Mrs. S
7. Fight with Mr. Cranky Pants
8. Go crazy at work
9. Fight with Mr. Cranky Pants
10. Have a humongous blow-out with my dad, Mr. Idiot
11. Have a humongous blow-out with Mr. Cranky Pants about the blow-out with Mr. Idiot
12. Realize that the Little Monster somehow lost one her $190 teeth (tooths, however you say it)
13. Have a mini melt down because of said missing tooth and numbers 10 and 11
14. Finished Mrs. S b-day present
15. Planned activities for the kiddios to do with their daddies while Mrs. S and I ran away to the circus, er, ahem had GNO.
16. Finally had GNO with Mrs. S, and we'll have to do it again, and soon!
17. Attempted to make up with Mr. Idiot, with minimal success
18. Got into another huge fight with Mr. Cranky Pants at his parent's home
19. Made up with Mr. Cranky Pants
20. Updating my blog..........
PHEW, are you as exhuasted as I am from reading this list?! It's been intense. Really intense. But things seem to be straightening themselves out now, but it's a miracle that I made it this far. It has just been two weeks that has taken everything I've had emotionally, and mentally to make it through. And with any trying time in your life, I have lost things, and gained things, made difficult decsions, and easy ones. I'm sure the insight of the past events won't even truly hit me until years from now, but boy oh boy, do I ever feel years older.
Things I've lost.... respect. I love Mr. Idiot, more than I should, more than I need to, and I honor him and my mother everyday, all the time. That said, I do not respect him anymore. This is a monumental thing for me. I realized I could finally separate the two. I have lost all respect for Mr. Idiot because of the things he's done to me and my family (Mr. Cranky Pants and the Little Monster). I thought that part of honoring your parents was respecting them no matter what, but that's not the case. Honoring your parents is loving them no matter what, respect is a two way street. I'm tired of giving and never getting. I mean a post about Mr. Idiot is really another blog in and of itself, so let's just leave it at that!
Things I've gained.... humility. With a stronger sense of who I am, and not being chained down by certain emotional bonds, I overstepped my boundaries with Mr. Cranky Pants. I made an inappropriate comment about a heated topic, and all hell just broke loose. I wasn't willing to give in and neither was he, and it was pretty ridiculously stupid. Pride is a terrible thing when used the wrong way.... I finally saw the hurtfulness in what I said, and have repented, and learned that a little humility goes a very long way.................
Ok, so I don't want this post to be a total downer........ let's skip ahead to some of the more fun things I've done.
GNO---> AWESOME. It was totally the best pick me up ever! Mrs. S and I just had mani/pedi's and dinner, then went back to my house to chat it up, all night! hahahah, also we had drinks, and so it was pretty much an all around rocking night. Maybe next time we'll shut up enough to watch a movie or do a craft hahahaha.......... but I doubt it. The next day I played dress-up with Mrs. S and my clothes that don't fit my fat ass anymore hahaha, to help her get ready to go to a wedding later that day. Let me just say that Mrs. S turned out simply stunning, and I know she had a great time. Mrs. S also gave me a fabulous hair cut... all in all an stellar weekend!
And the beginning of this week has been hard, but I'm not going to dwell on that or the Little Monster's missing tooth. No sir, not me. Instead, I am going to plan my next GNO, and go home and have a drink!
The biggest thing we lose when time flies is ourselves. Mommy needs a time out and a maragarita.
