HELP! I hid my candy corn from my kids and can't find it!

Help!                                                   
I hid my candy corn bag from my kids and cannot find it.
 Yep I am serious. I fasted candy for 8 days as part of a fasting and prayer time with my church. Ha! That didn't do much for me in the way of my addiction either because it took one day to be back into the swing of desire to eat it. Thankfully I do not have stashes in every random place so desire without resources is a good thing.
 Anyway, apparently I do not really like fresh candy corn. It tastes different after the bag has been opened for awhile. Today I forgot to eat breakfast, didn't have much for lunch since I packed my own in a huge hurry and was home for 10 minutes before leaving again to PTO meeting I am hungry! My last unopened bag retrieved later and ick, unstale candy corn didn't hit the spot. Does this make me a connoisseur ? Nope just crazy is what you are really thinking. I know no need to lie. I am pretty sure I have crossed the line to insanity with this.
In other randomness of life (not sure if that is a word either but making up words can be fun):
I have 2 other posts all typed up just lacking pictures to be uploaded. I figure one step at a time. Look for some other funny moments from the past in the future:)
I officially have forgotten to do more things today then in the entire 2011 but hey all is well and right in the end.
It took me approx 4 hours to gather and pack clothing, pj's and swim suits for the 6 members of my household. I still have carry on bags, travel activities and snacks to pack but I think I can consider this halfway done.
Lastly, my children are stressing about 18-20 hours in the car on the way to Disney so unaware that there is a plane involved. I am soooooo super duper excited to get this show on the road. Course if you saw my agenda for tomorrow you would wonder how I will survive it to get to Thurs. One step at a time is all I can handle though.
Now for the final thought let me end with this song. I had to listen to it several times to understand the words but considering all the opportunities today for aggravation is was a good thing I had listened to it over and over. Enjoy, you really couldn't even tell it was a Christian song, so sneaky too.
How we roll
I know that everyone's running
Just trying to get away (you can't get away
Life can feel a lot like a rat race
Like everyday is so mundane
But I am saying

Hey, hey, oh, oh
I'm not getting caught in the undertow
I'll keep taking it easy and taking it slow
I'm never gonna follow, no

Turn it up, make it loud on your radio
We are gonna dance everywhere we go
Everybody knows
That's how we roll

Why don't you come on and join us
Take your nose off the grindstone
Take, take your hands off the keyboard
And put down the iPhone
And let me hear you say

Hey, hey, oh, oh
We ain't getting caught in the undertow
We'll keeo taking it easy and slow
We're never gonna follow, no

Don't fold under pressure
A smile can make it better
Woah, ya know, ya know, yeah
Don't fold under pressure
A smile can make it better
And if everything goes wrong
Keep singing this song

Valentines, Boys and food

Last night all 3 big kids sat with me on the little couch reading books. One of them was called will you be my valentine. Michael asked what a valentine was and as I was explaining about "boy" friends and boy friends/ girl friends and "girl" friends. Annabeth then says so you and Daddy knew each other when you were kids. I tell her no and she gets confused. She asked some more questions suprised to hear that Daddy wasn't my only boyfriend. She asks if I kissed the other boys and I hestitated but said yes. She asked how old I say when you are 16 you might kiss a boy, HA! Daddy chimes in and says more like 20. All the kids yell at him because he usually does add something to tease with. Annabeth then covers her mouth and says I am NOT going to kiss a boy. Jan 1st 2010 we were heading to eat Chinese. It was 10:30am. Joey said I haven't eaten breakfast. I said well you should have done that before we were leaving can't you wait. He said nothing so I left t...

Piglet strikes again...

Lately dinner has become a major source of tension in my home. Many of you may know I HATE to cook as it stands so any additional frustration pulls at my temptation to not cook at all. The girls are pretty good about trying foods, eating salad and not complaining too much. The boys on the other hand have really gotten ridiculious. They would not try sloppy joe's, pulled beef which was AMAZING. G even had several helpings, or pork chops, even cheeseburger pasta (mac and cheese with beef). I have always felt that you must eat a few bites of everything and then if you are full or truly not hungry than fine. Fruit or vegetable is available anytime. But when I watch #1 eat 9 pieces of pizza, an adult meal at any fast food joint, or even restuarant I realized that he is playing the system. He has gotten a little better, except for gagging on sweet potatoes which he later was shocked to find out they were a potato and said if he has know that he would have ate them, What??? He does no...

Dad in charge

Today was my nephew's confirmation. Only grandparents and sponsors were attending the ceremony as it included 300 or so children. Afterwards my BIL and SIL hosted a celebration picnic in the park near their house. Having an older nephew my family, children included, remembered how it was to go. Park fun, no bathroom nearby not so fun. The biggest difference this time was that I ended up not attending, that is Eva and I. Dad was in charge of the big 3 at a function where adults eat and chat, kids play. Hmmmm anyone else hear the foreshadowing? Dad's typically are not the same as mom's. Mom's teach and nurture dad's brush off and toughen up. I am a fan of tough love and work it out on your own now that the kids are bigger. In conflict resolution some extra talking between each party should also occur including coaching at times too, but the event started off at a terrible disadvantage for the kids. #2 spent the night at a friends house and was only picked up on the ...
