POSSIBLY...MY FAVORITE TALKY EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you two are killing me over here! Im laughing very hard, in my house...by myself...and want to forward this to all my friends and sisters...to say "LOOK HOW FUNNY THEY ARE!" so real, so honest, so funny, so witty, LOVE IT!
theres no sense in being fake...like everything is just hunky dory...perfect...cuz ya klnow what...that doesnt exist...so keep it coming girls...I need this now...borderlines obsessed before...now ...full blown obsessed with the wed. talky.
oh oh.
hahahahah
you might have to make this an every day thing...serious.
Yep...IM claiming it..your biggest fan..Heather
Too Funny! My husband has actually gotten "nearly confrontational" with people on the road before, then they end up turning into the same church parking lot and parking right by us. We get out and "good morning" them and go on our way. It seems so fake! You ladies are helping to keep me sane. I'm glad I'm not the only Christian wife to ever show her husband a choice finger. Keep it up. You two are cheaper than therapy.
Okay.....so here is the deal.....I have actually gotten irritated with my husband for driving like a granny. Okay, he doesn't actually drive like a granny, he actually goes the speed limit. Says not only is it "the law" or some silly thing...but that I actually might not have to fill up so much. Imagine that :) So, I finally decide that he is generally right about 99.9 % of the time, which in it self is a bit irritating in a loving sort of way :) and I did have to agree that gas is outrageous....so...okay, I am going to do this little test to see if I can make my tank of gas last longer than 6 days. I have been making a huge effort to drive at least five miles under the speed limit. Much to my surprise.....he was right. I got a good 4 more days. Same places...work, piano, get the kids from school...dentist appointments, grocery store, soccer...all the crazy places Mom taxi has to go. BUT you know what!!?? PEOPLE HATE ME. They are mean. I dont do it if there are cars behind me...I will actually drive the posted speed if I am not alone on the road...but even that..not so friendly. So you just keep driving safe and conserve your gas!
As for the "off" days we gals have....I know I can relate. I am trying to be more aware so I dont push it too far with my sweet hubby and kids. What is that saying "If mamma aint happy than nobody's happy" :)
Yikes, we always hurt the ones we love don't we? Must be we're more comfortable with them so at the moment it seems OK... Stress does definitely add to it though!
On our wedding day (almost 19 years ago...), I was bound and determined that our wedding would start on time because I am almost always late. Everything that could go wrong did. It rained, inlaws got in a fender bender on the way to the church...and hubby innocently said that I didn't say "Hi" to his grandma.
I can't believe I actually said this...and I was at church! I did the middle finger, verbally!
And he still married me....wonders never cease.... ;)
Nice job ladies, keep up the good work. I like the comments almost as much as the talkies!
PS Let the blur know, he went to fast...couldn't even see him...even in slow mo. Ceci your face made me smile as you noticed someone was going by.

So funny and so Real I love it!! I am reading this book called Messy Spirituality. You girls would love it, you need to read it! Talks about fake Christians and that we need to be real and let people know we make mistakes, but God still loves us.
anyone see Rachael Ray today? (Thursday) She had Leah Remini on her show ...and like this talky blog...SO REAL! I love how all these real girls are being put in my life lately. We all know that need to compete with the seemingly "perfect" moms, other peoples perfect kids...etc..) Im so grateful for these true moms....and their honesty that ya know what ladies...life aint always so peachy keen! Even with Leahs $$$$ ...doesnt matter! she has the same kid issues that we all face. I think she may be a scientologist though:( so maybe we can all keep her in our prayers...what an awesome thing if GOd could use her! She is very "out there" and not afraid to let people hear what shes thinking:) LOVE HER! and Love you girls too...
any moms reading this...please know that any insecurities your feeling when your out...with other "perfect" moms...they are all feeling the same things, themselves...lets put our guards DOWN and just be normal...stop all this fake pretencious, acting like everything is just wonderful all the time. It puts alot of stress on other moms...can we not help each other? Lets try teaching our kids to be humble, and kind to others....even the kids they think arent as "cool and popular" as they are. Why is it that kids cant be buddies with their peers? Elementary school was great, but for our family...it started in middle school. There are so many kids (and adults) who will only associate with kids like them.They put their noses up at their own peers. I have been on both sides of the spectrum..my daughter tends to struggle to make good friends, and my son has them coming out of everywhere, and is considered to be the "popular" kid. WHO CARES!!! We are telling him all the time to be an awesome friend to all the kids he goes to school with...not just the select few he finds acceptable. moms...help! it starts at home, and has to be emphasized at home...and not tolerated EVER!
Im writing a little book here...but Im getting more and more passionate about this...and feel like God has put this on my heart...maybe all the times Ive struggled with my own daughter not fitting in...year after year..has actually been a lesson for me...I know other kids are going through the same thing...and other moms for that matter.
just another blog comment, sorry so L-O-N-G
I may need to start my own. :) haha
I actually pray every day for God to place the friends around our kids that He wants them to have. Who can pick better friends than God? We try to also teach our kids to use the situations they experience with the "bully" kind of kids as growing experiences. Dont really let them get under your skin...but let God raise you above that. I am not saying to get tough and let it happen, I am saying to use the situation to grow yourself. Obviously they are going to deal with the type forever...otherwise us very nice and kind grown women wouldn't be talking about losing our tempers....being "mean" (which is really very nice in comparison isn't it? :) and giving unsuspecting husbands and virtual strangers the finger....verbally or physically! :) If we actually practiced all the GREAT advice we give our kids we personally would be so good to go! Walk the Walk right??!! This last comment made me think of all the "nice" kids that I didnt understand my daughter or son not wanting to have as friends. With all the suggested play dates and prodding....they finally came out and said that the kids I thought were "nice" kids actually acted pretty differently when us parents were not around and they didnt care to meld into that "group". How proud I was and that is when I started to realize that God had that and my kids were really allowing the blessing of that guidance. Hence, the daily prayer. Thanks God!
Loving the Chunky necklace:)
Hey Mandy, here's a "mom tip" Buy a case of Diet Pepsi and put it in the fridge at the station LOL
thats a great idea...to put the diet pepsi in the fridge at work...in fact, this week diet pepsi is on sale at family fare:) GO STOCK UP!!!
I am just like Mandy in the morning want noone around me. I also get in bad moods for no reason. I hate it when i do then i do feel bad after words. Its nice to know i am not the only one that has those kinds of days. Thanks for being real you have no idea how being more real, then fake, ministers to me. I see God more when people are real and show there faults. It goes to show God still loves and uses his imperfect children and that we r not the only ones who fail..make mistakes..be human :) Thanks women of God thanks for being real. I get tired of all the fake christians who act like they got it all together.
Yeah...so, I paid for those donuts, so get off my hump.
And my truck still reeks of Aspertame.
