I want my coffee and I want it now!!!

In case you were wondering, no, 4 teabags in one's cup DOES NOT satisfy one's caffeine addiction! What am I talking about? Well, I decided to give up coffee as it inhibits the body from absorbing iron, amongst my many ailments (don't worry you'll get to read all about them eventually) I have recently been diagnosed with severe Anaemia, I am iron deficient and had mild Anaemia during 2 of my pregnancies but this time it's SEVERE and apparently drinking 6 cups of coffee a day isn't helping!
Well, switching to tea (decaf, at first) apparently isn't helping my boys either, on the plus side, mum turning into "the Hulk" every five minutes does make boys listen, a bit. My eldest offered to ride to the service station and buy me some coffee "maybe you could just have two cups a day mum, one in the morning and one when we come home from school" God love him, poor child. In my defense, he did get changed in the loungeroom and left his pajamas, doona and pillow on the floor... Why was his bedding in the loungeroom anyway?
You know how we've all had a partner whose brain switches off their hearing as soon as we speak to him? Well, let me tell you, I have 4 sons and they are born like that! Oh just like grown men can suddenly hear us when we say things relating to food or sex, boys too can hear words related to food, sugary substances and video games. Other than that THEY DO NOT LISTEN!
Why does EVERYTHING have to go on the floor!!! How am I supposed to clean up after my monkey men without caffeine?!!??

It's the end of the world!!! Again!!

Why does my 7.5 (mustn't forget the .5) year old act like a teenage girl? He's emotional, thinks he knows everything, lies and wants me to buy everything he sees. He also has a girlfriend and wants to know how babies are made! WHAT!?! He is 7!!! What is the world coming to! I didn't even kiss a boy until year 8! Yet here is my 7 YEAR old telling me about how disappointed he is that his girlfriend hasn't "grown boobs" yet! His father thinks this is funny! Is it funny? Do I have a deficient sense of humor? Funny to me is when he says to me this morning "I can't wait to have hairy feet like dad so I can shave them", this is the kind of stuff he should be saying ALL THE TIME!
So his cousins were over the other day and asked me if they could play the Wii, I said yes of course. So this meant they had to take out my dear boy's game, that he was in the middle of, then when he finds out he spends 45 minutes, I kid you not, sitting on top of my hot water system, curled up in a ball, screaming and crying at the top of his lungs! Why couldn't he just storm into his room and slam the door as usual? Oh yeah I banned that, maybe I should lift the ban so my neighbors don't think I'm over here severing my boys' limbs...
Last night my darling, gorgeous, angel faced, adorable little 3 year old got SCREAMED at for touching my 7yr old's magazine! He was devastated! Then this morning Evan (7) gets up all happy and packs his own lunch...I don't get it...

Don't have a title

So I've just watched the sunrise, or at least I would have if it wasn't for all the fog!
Today I decided to get up at 5 because I have an inspection at 9:30, my kitchen is a mess and my room looks like a tornado went through it. I have a couch that's supposed to go in my room blocking the hallway, because I was too tired...Two of my three boys went to their dad's on the weekend (my little one never leaves me, I reckon he thinks his dad is some dude from the shops) and I was supposed to be getting my house ready (I hate housework) but instead, being the skilled procrastinator that I am, I decided to find me a new couch, free of course. So I prayed (I've gotten in the habit of praying before I do most things) Lord, please help me find a free couch and maybe a Microwave too today. So I look on Gumtree and there it is! Free Leather lounge, 3 seater and 1 seater, so I call and it's still there!!! It's also only 15 minutes away!!! My car is a tank and I can fit anything in it. So I drive to this area and it's Council Pickup week there, I find a near new microwave (yes it works perfectly) as well as an exercise machine in perfect condition (don't know what it's called but it's big and heavy) so I end up making two trips and carry the big heavy machine and three seater couch up the stairs and into my house by my self. So I'm left sore and tired. The old and much abused 3 seater, much heavier than the new couch, is to go in my bedroom so the next time all my sons decide to sleep in my room I can tell them to sleep on the couch (am sick of falling out of
bed), according to my 6 year old if I got a new husband this wouldn't happen! I'm still married! Heartbroken too! The cheek of him...So anyway, instead of cleaning I've spent the last hour on here! Thanks Duck! I think that I've found a new, possible addiction to replace the virtual games on my iPhone...More on that later. Did I mention my new Leather couch is Pink? Well it is. I LOVE pink!!!! I can also wipe it down!!!! Yay!!!

Beginning a blog

So I have no clue whatsoever about blogging. My sister said I should so here I am.
So here I go...

I believe very strongly that crazy hobos are not crazy at all. They just haven't emotionally and psychologically matured beyond toddlerhood. People don't know this so these giant toddlers are left to fend for themselves. Some do ok by joining the armed forces (like my errant, wondering husband) some become homeless drunks, like the guy that wanders around Circular Quay, for example. He staggers around talking to himself, yells at random people in a dialect no one understand and smells like he's had a few accidents. Just like a trip to Coles with my toddler boy. So next time you see a crazy hobo, have mercy.

This was in no way intended to offend crazy hobos or toddlers.
