The day before I get old

Well tomorrow is my birthday.  It isn't a milestone's birthday, such as 40.  It is my 34th birthday.  Almost 1/2 my life ago I met my husband.  Next week will be our 15th anniversary.  WOW...kay that seems old.  I regularly have to stop and actually think about how old I actually am.  My children age, but I don't...or at least I don't remember aging.  I do notice little things though...like getting up is harder, learning is harder and remembering....what were we talking about again?  

For those of you who don't know me....how did you manage to stumble onto this blog?  I'm terribly sorry if I am wasting your time.  For those of you who do.....how did you manage to stumble onto this blog?  I'm terribly sorry I am wasting your time :)

I have four beautiful munchkins.  LOL I'm sure they'll love that.  JC is my oldest.  She is 14. She is quickly moving from my little girl to a woman I barely recognize.   She has a wonderful smile and a good heart.  Then there is VC...if you have ever seen the movie Shrek, imagine donkey, but beautiful and smart.  She is my extra set of hands in the kitchen.  Then there is MC...the only boy...he is as boy as they come, except maybe the lack of interest in running and sports. He loves lego, science books and reading comics..especially Calvin and Hobbes. That leaves the youngest.....SC.. She didn't want to enter this world on anyone's schedule and she doesn't want to follow your schedule now.  She is larger than life and the smallest of the house.  But you will never forget she is there.

To top this large group there are also 2 cats...DC and Stupid and one beloved Anteater (dog).  DC, cat number 1) earned the name because we couldn't come up with a name and so chose letters that could be used as substitutes.  Some of the favorites are dumb cat, dad's cat, darling cat, dead cat and my personal favorite Darn Cute.  Then there is Stupid (cat number 2), who's real name is Koda. He has to be the most annoying animal of all time.  He has wrecked over 6 sets of screens (window), scratched the paint off the side of house twice and can meow louder than most children can yell.  Why we still have him is beyond me....did I mention he was the result of a series of inbred kittens....We took pitty...NEVER Take PITTY on an Inbred Cat.  Finally we have our beloved Anteater, who really is a dog but has the worlds longest nose.  Timber is our Rough Collie (Lassie pup). He has fit into our family perfectly.  He is a stubborn 10 month old male pup.  He owns the house and he knows it...even the cats listen to him (well DC does most of the time).   He sleeps amazing amounts of the day. But he makes sure to move from our bed, to the floor, to bed and back again just so he doesn't appear to sleep all the time.   Favorite past time....licking everything; greatest dislike....being brushed....favorite place...anywhere we are.

So that brings me to ..... what do people talk about on their blogs?
