side note from myself to myself

on the phone with my little sister somewhere in Utah...and she laughs and says "wow, maybe you will find someone to bring back who does not mind that you have 2 kids and who will take care of you".

there are so many things that i find offensive with that statement, joking or not. i actually brought it up with her today in from of our mom. sis told me "to get over it already".

k, as soon as you really get it through your head that i don't want someone to "take care" of me. oh, and i don't want someone who "won't mind" that i have kids. my kids before me and that's the way it is.

for fucks sake.

Longest Road Trip Yet!!!

So I hauled my almost 6 month prego self plus 4 1/2 year son on one heck of a trip! :)

We left out home in Long Beach Washington and drove through Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, got to Colorado to visit family and then went through northern Wyoming and then Montana, back into Idaho and finally Washington where we stayed at my brother's house in Spokane for a few days. It was a BLAST. I had no idea how beautiful each state was and in so many different ways!

All the different places we stopped or staid at had nice people but what sticks out the most in that area is Montana! WOW. The most friendly people that I have ever run across.

We will most definitely be making road trips with our little family more of a yearly event.
