There have been A LOT of things going on since my last post.
We have acquired an additional body in our house full time and another one part time.
A close friend of mine and his 9 year old son are staying with us temporarily while my friend heals from a break up and gets back on his feet.
His 9 year old son is staying with us as well, when he is not at his mom’s.
Things have been hectic, but we are happy to be able to help them out.
In the mean time, I’ve been trying to keep up on my household chores, which the little Tatertot is making extremely frustrating.
He has been enjoying taking his diaper off at night and peeing in his bed, meaning we are washing sheets….A LOT.
The kid will not keep his clothes or his diaper on, so it looks like we are going to have to turn to the trusty Duct tape and start securing those bad boys.
Next week, we plan to start the potty training, so wish us luck.
In other news, the Hardworking Hubby and I have both been keeping busy with school. I am in my last week of my 5th block of classes. After Sunday, I will officially be halfway through my program. YAY!
The kids are all doing well.
Zman will be graduating from the D.A.R.E. program this evening so I am getting ready to attend the ceremony.
The DramaQueen is still as dramatic as ever but is kicking some serious butt as well.
Tatertot is also talking a lot more and is more active everyday.
So, what’s new in your world??

Now I am not one who usually posts anything political.
I personally prefer to keep my political beliefs to myself.
However, this week, there has been A LOT of hoopla on the WWW about Health Care Reform.
A lot of what I have read is that people are confused and don’t know how it will affect them.
So, here is a great little site that you can check out and see how it affects your situation.
Health Care Reform
I hope it can help you better understand what this new bill means.
So, many of you know that I purchased a student pass to BlogHer in NYC and unfortunately, our plans changed and we will not be attending. Once we came to this realization, I figured why sell my pass when I could just give it away to someone who really needs it!
This brings us to today.
Today is the day the contest has ended.
Today, as in this post, that you are reading right now, is the day that I am posting the winner.
The winner will have exactly 24 hours to contact me with their email address, name, address, phone number etc. so that I can have the ticket transferred to their name.
The winner will need to send me this info via email to annegyounger(@)gmail(dot)com.
I know….you just want to know who the winner is and so do I!
Here goes…..
According to Random.org, the lucky number is #3 from Bobbi Janay of KidtoGrownUp.com.
Congratulations Bobbi!
Not only where you the 1st and most consistent to comment on the post, your tale of why you want to attend BlogHer10 was very touching!
Here is Bobbi’s story:
Well like you I am a student but I thought I wasn’t going to be able to attend this year due the fact that I was pregnant and due 3 weeks after. Well as of this Friday night we learned that we had lost our sweet angel. When we found out all of this my husband trying to cheer me up said I could get a student ticket and go to blogher after all. Well as you know they are sold out and with our up coming medical cost, we are unable to afford the other tickets. So please check out When did I go from a kid to a grown up? , and help me make it to blogher.
Bobbi, I hope you have a fabulous time at BlogHer 10, you truly deserve it!
Also, please feel free to share some of your fabulous swag with me!!
Congrats again!!
