Medical Marijuana

Ok so I know this is a hot topic, so please I welcome your feed back, and this is how I feel about it!
Go to fullsize imageHere in the wonderful town of Grand Junction, Colorado we have a medical marijuana dispensaries on every corner. There is no need to even have a real need for a medical marijuana card. A wanna be Dr can prescribe you one over the Internet. Trust me a reported for the paper did an undercover story. She met in a coffee house with a person from the dispensaries and had a video chat with a Dr to get her card. Yesterday I was driving down the street and the guy in the car next to me was smoking a bowl. REALLY??? Well after a second glance yes it was a bowl and I am sure it wasn't full of tobacco. The man probably had his medical marijuana card, so no big deal right. NO WAY!!!!!
Go to fullsize imageOk so I totally understand how marijuana can help with medical problems. Trust me I have Crohn's and when it is bad I could smoke and feel a lot better. I could hold food down and my pains wouldn't be so bad. Now keep in mind that I do not do that, mainly because I have kids and I feel irresponsible doing that. Anywhos..... I think marijuana is right for some people. Why isn't it regulated by pharmacy's like any other prescription? Why are they allowed to make suckers and other items that kids will be attracted to? I think if you have a prescription for marijuana you should go to a pharmacy and fill it. That way hows it grown, whats in it, and how you consume it can be regulated. Tequila makes a great antidepressant. I am sure if I paid enough a "wanna be Dr" could write me a prescription. Then I could drive all my kiddos around drinking my tequila singing Lady GaGa at the top of my lungs! LOL If you use your medical marijuana responsibly (not while driving) I think that's great. Common people what were we thinking letting dispensaries hand out marijuana. I don't care what anyone says it is addictive and a gate way drug, but if used the right way can be very helpfull to people who really need it.Watch out next time you hit the road. I may be out there with my new medical tequila prescription!!

Burger King. GRRRRR!!!!

Go to fullsize imageOk so last Thursday we went to Burger King on 24 1/2rd (by the mall) at noon for lunch. First of all the got our order so so wrong, thank God we didn't go through the drive through. No big deal I just kept taking food back until they finally got it right. Then Teagan took a crap in his diaper so I took him to the bathroom to change him. the have NO CHANGING TABLE!!!! WTF!!!!! I go to the front counter and ask where the expect me to change my son. The lady says to go to my car. I tell her no that I have other kids in the play area, so she tells me to pack up my stuff and go home to change him. Again WTF!!!! I ask her if I should change him right here on the counter, and she said shure. Well I am not going to do that to Teagan as he is 2 and I do not need to show him weiner to everyone.Plus it could embarrass him. So I ask for the owners number. Then the manager finally got involved and told me I didn't need the number because he ordered a changing table yesterday. Ya Right.. so I demand the number. Well today I finally call the number and it is the cell phone for another manager, not the owner. I tell Cesar about the situation and he says by law he does not have to have a changing table which I understand, but that's not the point. I ask for the franchise owners number and he says he can only give me and email address. Well after some research I finally found a 1-800 number and called and complained some more. If you are going to have a restaurant that attracts little kids you should have a changing table. Next time I just may change my kid on the counter where you serve food. "would you like a pile of steaming poo with your whopper"??

Everbody Poops!!

So I am so fed up with poop. Everyone in my house poops and I have to clean it up. The dog, cats, kids, and chris.Well I have to clean the toilet so Chris counts too. Well today there was poop everywhere. Let me start from the beginning......

So the girls were crying so I went to change them. I laid Charlie on the floor, changed her all is good. I laid peyton on the floor next only to realise she had a big blow out and now there is a huge poop stain on the carpet. Well I continue to try to change her and Chralie rolls over and puts her hand in the poop! What was I supposed to do lay

 Peyton down to clean the poop, which would result in more poop stains, or continue to hold peyton try to keep everyone away from the poop. So I get Peyton cleaned up lay her down, clean up charlie, and clean the poop off the carpet. Then I realize Peyton made it to the diaper I took off her and now she has poop in her again!!!! AHHHHH.
Well I get Peyton cleaned up and I am trying to get a diaper on her, which at this point should be an Olympic event, and out of the corner of my eye what do I see......... Charlie crawling towards the dirty diaper! AHHH. Luckily I stop Charlie, get the diaper on Peyton and all is good. Thank God Teagan was out side. he is like a magnet for poop. Poop is now his favorite word, he can even tell you poop comes from his but, and when you flush the toilet after pooping he waves and says "Bye bye poop"

To Pierce or not to Pierce? Part 2

If you missed Part One you can find it here... http://lilbrulestheworldtheend.blogspot.com/2011/02/to-pierce-or-not-to-pierce.html

So I am now torn on piercing the girls ears. We say a little girl at church the other day and she looked so cute with hers done. She had tiny little earrings, not big diamond like ones. Now I sorta want to get the girls done. AHHHHHH!!!!!!
I have decided that I am either going to go and do it next week or I am not going to do it until they ask. If I wait much longer they will be at the age were they play with them, and I don't want that. Chris has next week off and I will defiantly need him to help me, so it will either happen or we will wait. I cannot make up my mind. I didn't want to do it for two reasons.
1: I wanted to wait until it was their choice.
2: I wanted to have a special mom daughter bonding time doing it.
But after seeing this little girl at church and how cute and nongoddy they can look I want to do it. Plus I feel so bad for my bald little peyton, she needs something girlie about her. LOL
Well I guess we will see in a few days if it happens. Here is just a little something.. in some countrys babies ears are pierced in the hospital right after they are born.

It takes a special kind of man.

Go to fullsize imageSo Chris has been out of work for almost a month now. I have to say it has been the best month EVER!!! I love having him home. This last week has taken some adjustment tho, and he has been awesome! I decided I need to find work, something were I would make more money than I have been with loan closings, but still be able to be home and not put the kiddos in daycare. Well like most of you know I did that. I was super worried about Chris being home with the kids. Granted I am not working a full day, but I know how hard it can be to be home alone with the kiddos. Especially for him. Chris is the type of guy who likes to be out working, he prides him self in providing for our family. So Friday I get home from work and the kids are all down for nap and he was doing some laundry. Good Start right?? I think so. Saturday I had to work at the gym and when I got home he house was CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!! I was so impressed. I was worried chris would be overwhelmed and not happy. He is so sweet and so supportive of me working. I think it take a special kind of man to, one agree that me working part time will really help our family, and two take on the house work that he hasn't had to do for two years, He hasn't batted an eye he has stepped right up and help me so much. I still have to tell him the things that need done around the house, but he does them, and doesn't complain. I am so excited to be back to work, but I am even more excited Chris is so excited. I am going to be sad when he goes back to work. Which will hopefully be tomorrow ;) I could use some ideas of a way to show my appreciation to chris......parts for the Jeep....a mini vacation.....or?????? Let me know what you think!

The first day Jitters

Wow I have not blogged in a while, guess I have been bust or lazy. This last week I tried to get my job at Osburn Cabinets back. I didn't think they would call me, mainly because the market is so slow. Well they did and I got my job back. I am so excited!!!! It is a full commission position and going to take a lot of work, but I still get to stay home with my kiddos. Tomorrow is my first day back, I have not worked a "real" job in two and a half years. I am a little nervous, excited and think I may pee my pants! LOL Luckily all the same guys work there and I know everyone. I am excited to work on getting my name out there. I know I am going to have to work my ass off, but I also know I can do it. Well wish me luck, and if you ever need cabinets let me know. I can do kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, mud rooms, offices, and even entertainment centers!!!! Well off to bed, going to try and get some sleep to start my new day!! YEAH I AM WORKIN MOMMA!!!!

Primerica, What a Joke!!


Ok so Chris has been out of a job for a couple weeks now. He was supposed to start his new job with in a week of training, which was a week ago. Now they are hem-hawing about when he is going to start. With that said I thought I would check out the job market. If I could work for the next few weeks he is home at least it would be something.
I have seen this add in the paper a few times:
Go to fullsize image
Primerica
Part time or full
Grorge Rau
970-243-6895
So I call thinking well part time I may even be able to do when Chris goes back to work. I call George, give him some of my info and he tells me he would love for me to come in for a casual interview, if I have a resume bring it but if not it's ok. Ok sounds good so I get dressed and go.

Primerica is a company who helps middle class America (or people like me and most my friends) get out of debt, invest in your future, and purchase the correct amount of life insurance. Well this is what they tell you.

So I show up to the interview, I walk in and the main room has a bunck of chairs in a circle around a projector and screen. The room is unorganized and not professional in any way. This was red flag number one. I hand George my resume and he doesn't even read it, he really doesn't care what my background is I know realize, red flag number two. So I ask the guy if they are one of the top companies in America why I never see advertisement. He said they do not advertise. Red Flag number three. So he goes through his spiel about the company expanding, and how they help people, and blah, blah, blah.....
Any who he invites me back for a meeting tomorrow. He says they normally have a business meeting on Tuesday night and I could join in. I agree and come home to do more homework.

After googling "primerica scam" I find that they are a pyramid scheme company. They make money by hiring as many minion's they can find. What kind of company can be successful and not advertise at all? They don't care who you are, where you came from, or if you have any schooling. They get you sucked in and make you believe you can earn lots of money easy, but its not true. For anyone looking for a job stay away from Primerica. I was a no call no show for this meeting and George is still calling me asking me to meet with him again. Why would you want to hire someone who no called no showed to your meeting?? Because you are A SCAM!!!!!

BYU's Honor Code

Go to fullsize imageAfter seeing the news and learning that a College Basketball Player was benched for having sex with his girlfriend, I was a little flabbergasted. After hearing the whole story I am impressed with BYU!! Al tho I am not sure I could up-hold the honor code, I am impressed that even with march madness coming up they stuck to their guns, and laid down the law. I think athletes get a free pass all to often. I have felt this way even since High School. I went to a school where football players were God. They could do anything and get away with it. Not to mention how the football program sucked the money away from other programs. I would know this because the AWESOME speech and debate team I was on got nothing compared to the football team. I remember one of the head football players showing his balls in the school parking lot and no one blinked an eye. I am sure if I were running around with my VaJaJa out the police would have been called. Maybe no one said anything because his testies were not much to be proud of. I mean why add insult to injury! I feel my husband was treated that was in high school, not because he was a bad kid, but his grades were not something to be proud of. In this way I feel that his teachers and school failed him, all because he was a GREAT football player.

It is nice to finally see a school not giving a star athlete preferential treatment. He knew when deciding to attend the school that they had an honor code, he knew what was in the honor code, and if he didn't agree with it he shouldn't have signed it. Al tho I think some of the things in the code are weird and over the top, I also understand the back ground of that code and where the rules come from. Thank you BYU for not buckling under the pressure of winning March Madness and upholding the values of your school.
