It’s Thursday and I am ready Ramble!!! Are you ready? Hope so here we go ;).
Walking up a 1.5 mile hill with the cold blowing in your face and then all of a sudden you realize pushing a 64 pound girlie in the stroller is taking its toll. You can do it, you start telling yourself then you feel that ole so lovely sciatic nerve sending its vibrant pulses down your leg that you spit out so fast… please Madisyn can you just walk up this hill for a little bit. Yes I can mommy… ahhh relief.
Until… uhhh mommy I kinda gotta use the bathroom and I cannot wait anymore. Hmmm well we are .5 mile out from the house, mommy get your brain a thinking what can you do? Oh yea we do have the cell phone, will it pick up on the mountain? Let’s try. I hear that oh music to my ears when hubbs says hello. Ummm hun Madisyn needs to use the bathroom really bad. Ok, I’ll be right down. Phew…………
Her ride comes from daddy and mommy keeps on the walk as we all know my weigh in wasn’t the best news this week. I get to the top of the hill/mountain and ahhhh my feet is craving a warm hot bath. Feels so nice.
This big walk got my mind thinking so much about the half of tank of gas it took to fill my tank yesterday. It wasn’t that long ago that 35.00 would fill the whole van up and now it takes that to fill up a half a tank? Me thinks there is going to be some drastic changes happening soon or this mom will go all ape-crap on someone. Do the billionaires of Exxon and BP not realize who they are messing with? I am a bargain momma you know, and you are throwing my monthly budget all out of whaack. Would you like to come and pay my budget for the rest of the year while you are out vacationing on some big yacht with all the billions of profits you are taking from moms and dads here slaving away to keep food on the table. Just food for thought literally billionaires!
:::rant over::: and this ready to ramble mom is going to get back to work to help pay that gas bill from yesterday 😉

Jen, why does that ALWAYS happen?!
Sorry I’ve not been around in so long. I never mean for it to be so long and it always is. Forgive me!
Hope you had a great weekend and have a great week!

Hey, I have sciatica, too! Ironic! Mine started month four of pregnancy with second baby. Had me out on disability the entire rest of the pregancy it was so bad. I followed it with lots of physical therapy until I just couldn’t afford the co-pays anymore. It’s still there nagging at me whenever I take a walk. Yikes, it’s painful. I feel for you. My oldest is only 30 pounds! (She is only 3).
