Hello 30's

Today is my last day in my 20's.  I'll get over it :)    I am actually quite proud of what I have accomplished in my life so far... things that a lot of people dont until they are actually done with their 30's.  Some people my age, still partying, still not settled, actually can't understand that I chose to be a mother when i was 19. That i chose to put my medical carreer on hold, and that i chose to live a life of goals and not this "im living my youth, i drink, screw stangers and party" bullshit.  

Nah, im not pissed, just irritated that yet again, someone told me "you are too young to have this many kids"    Huh? scuse me?  So, you'd rather be 45 and send your kid to kindergarden, or 30 and know that the sacrificed you've made instead of only thinking about pleasure, were well worth it.   I am not talking about people that tell me im too young because they simply are surprised.... but im talking about people that actually cant do their math, assume I was a teen mom (and so what if i was, who cares; some teen moms i know are better mothers than some other 40yo we hear about on tv)

Dont get me wrong... there is nothing wrong with being 45 and just starting a family.  I admire mature, self sacrificing people, whatever age, whatever circonstances and whatever they are doing. I just cant stand people that can't grow up and put down other people like me that CHOSE to do something good with their lives when they were 16 instead of waking up at 40 wondering where life has been when they were drunk.  

Im not mad. nah, just irritated by a comment i got yesterday; but i'll keep the comment to myself.  Oh heck, i'll tell you.  This guy told me "well, looks like you've been doing a lot of one thing"      He means sex.    Huh, im 29, hmm 30!!   yes, i do the "thing" you are talking about, probably more than you do, so what??   it makes me really mad when people say that; and i've heard it more than you can imagine.   I cant believe how stupid people are... to insult me, because i've got 4 wonderful children. The comment itself is just pure ignorance. I should respond "yea, i've had sex 4 times , and you?"  

Back to life.. haha

We are done with Angelina's room! Jay did a great job with trimming, molding etc and the floor!   We had to let it cure one week becore putting any furniture back in!  In the mean time, i could refinish the bed and finish other little project.  Here are the before and after pictures.

I am now working on the boys room.  I am finishing all the painting today.  Jay will refinish their floor saturday, so again i will take that week to refinish their furniture (wood is in bad shape)   I have been working on their furniture for days now... its taking so long.... not to mention that i chose a deep blue for it, so its taking 3-4 coats of paint, after the primer! Yikes, that is a lot of painting.    They are having a "pirate/ship" room.    We'll take a month break after this, than we'll do our room, than Nick's. His was done when we moved in so that's why we are doing it last this time around.   He'll probably have a loft bed and some stripes on his wall (his request)  

Weird enough, we JUST found out he is colorblind!!  he's always matched his clothes (well... jeans and black shirts how easy! haha)  but few months ago we noticed he asked sebastien why he was wearing a lot of purple! (it was blue)   so he had a test done, and he is colorblind; so many colors he doesnt see right!  Pink is orange, blue is purple, and more.  

I miss my family....  especially my sister.  I really hope to see them soon... which is probably a while....   *sigh*

Well sorry about my rambling. I'll go enjoy this last day in my 20's cooking for my family, cleaning my house, painting, workout, and comfortably sit with my husband... oh and probably do that thing to; not that you want to know, but hey, everyone know its my favorite hobby!!   hehehe

SMILE!!
