shante's blog

*Note to the wise…you're better off writing your blog in Word first then publish it from there….one too many times have I accidently hit the backspace or click on a link…only to go back and my entire blog has disappeared! Which is what happened today. That will happen no more my friends!

Now moving on to rewrite the entire blog I did early this morning…

Hi all!

I know it's been awhile since I blogged and the last one was kind of weird looking so I guess I will explain that first.

Everything is covered in snow! I mean everything! I have never seen so much snow. The snow has covered the car, covered the streets, covered EVERYTHING!

I know I know I was suppose to have this up, what? Yesterday? Procrastination, one of my fatal flaws. SMH.

I was thinking a few days ago about how rude people make me angry. I'm sure rude people make almost everyone angry. But my attitude changes. This is what my friend Roro, likes to refer as "Tae Tae" coming out. Which got me to thinking of the different reactions of myself that come out in different situations.

If I had to break myself down into levels or phases or faces or whatever, I'd say there where four: Shante, Tae, Tae Tae, and Mama Tae.

Hello all,

I trust you all have enjoyed the past few holiday weeks and are getting back into the swing of things. My love has a new work schedule!

We've been entering a contest. I won't specify, but if we win it would be amazing. And I think it's about time for a blessing. Looking at the timeline of our life and all it's right on schedule! LoL...

Well, I'm going to have to cut this one short. My love has returned and we are going to either go to bed or fall asleep watching television.

Good night all!

So along with being a domestic diva, I have added technical diva to the list!

As you can see to the right of my page, I have add a twitter feed and a facebook share button to my site! So if there is anyone who really does read this and perhaps finds it interesting. You can share it with your friends on facebook! Also on facebook, I've added my site to my notes import! So every blog I write will show up!

So this is a little test run if you will to see how everything has worked out.

My husband will think I'm even hotter now!

So tomorrow is Christmas Eve...

I'm kgb_ing away. The kids are asleep...well two are...Brittany has been holed up in her room all day. She came out to eat breakfast and came out and got her scissors. I asked her what she was doing and she said nothing...hmmm...Clearly she's up to something, probably Christmasy.

Stuck on a question, waiting for help.

I'm excited about Christmas. I ended up finding some good gifts for the kids. You know the Domestic Diva is the Bargain Queen!

Good Morning!

Well like the title says-I'm blogging sitting here the couch through the Wii. It is awesome!!!

Last night I was sitting around and saw the Wii was glowing, which, if I'm not mistaken, means that we have a message in the inbox. So I went and checked and it said the internet on the Wii is now free! So of course, I immediately downloaded it!

Well good morning!

Early morning start I guess you could say. The baby woke up at around four and when I finally got him back to sleep, I couldn't go back to sleep. Ha. I'll pay for it in the middle of the day when I'm trying to watch some movie and fall asleep.

I'm exhausted beyond belief and cannot really sleep right now...maybe I just need to go ahead and eat some breakfast.

Speaking of breakfast, Chloe is eating cereal and drinking milk again! Praise baby Jesus!

So...

I've had the baby. Alex Russ IV is a month old! But I owe some friends the story of his birth.

It was rather quick...

I went in on the Friday before Halloween to get set up for my induction that was scheduled the following Monday. I was having contractions so the nurse said I could go back to triage and get checked out. This would be my fourth time in triage.

The nurse checked me said I was a thin four centimeters, but was having few contractions so I could go home, but there was a chance I'd be back later that night.

So,

It's been two weeks since I last blogged and there is still no baby. In that two weeks time, I have been to the hospital for a third time! I thought the third time would be the time charm. But since this baby is Alex IV I'm thinking maybe the fourth time is a charm?!

I have been having contractions still. Sometimes steady, sometimes far apart. Sometimes none at all.

I have another tomorrow. We will talk about possible induction options. I'm not really wanting to be induced. But if it is better for the baby, then I'm all for it.
