For all those that have children and wish to entertain them over the holidays, My mother in law is again putting on one of her shows.
This time she has given me a minor role as the tooth fairy. This should give you an indication on what kind of show it is. Seeing a tooth fairy in the play Robin Hood is somewhat misplaced, but that is the nature of my wonderful mother in law. She writes some very funny childrens show and anyone in Dunedin, here are the details of the show if you would like to come.
Wednesday 22nd to Friday 24th, shows are at 11am and 2pm and on Saturday 25th, shows are on 2pm and 6.30pm. All tickets are $7 and is at the Globe Theatre.
If anyone is interested in coming, let me know and I will book you in. The theatre is a small one so it would be best to book.
If you have not guessed yet either, the recent picture of me under the title "queen mischief", that is me dressed im my tooth fairy costume. When Carol was writing the play, she felt the tooth fairy was somewhat gothic, so that is how she dressed me, and i let her do as she pleased.

My Super Hero
There have been a couple things later that have been weighing me down. Bothering me somewhat.
Thing 1 :
Im in debt buy a fair few hundred. Depression and lovely little plastic cards do not mix well, especially when you have a fair amount in the bank because its just before all your bills are due. And also it doesn't help you sort out your budget and i made a couple of huge mistakes like misjudging the week the mortgage came out and forgetting to put money aside one week for the next. Lets just say that the amount was over 500 but not yet near 1000. Debt is stressful. When Jakob found out i was in as much debt as i was, he jumped to it and found me a way out. I don't know exactly how he did it but i do know it was completely legal, But he just gave me all the money i was missing to make ends meet. I almost cried when he gave it to me. It was such a relief to finally say i had enough money again. Although it did come with a mild lecture about staying on top of things. Which was understandable and trust me everyone, im not making those mistakes again. I promise. Super hero to the rescue number 1.
Thing 2
I hate vans. I loath them. I unfortunately own one. One unpleasant thing i have found out about my van is that when it is wet, it fish-tails. Its not stable in the slightest. Going around corners i have to be at 20kph at the most and just because im driving straight, doesn't mean im safe. I've found that if i drive over any of the road markings, it can send the back of my van swaying and swerving. Its scary and i hate it. It only happens when it rains, but this is Dunedin, we are not known for our wonderful hours of sunlight all day. It has been hot lately but today i woke up and our house was in the clouds. I do not feel safe driving the van and when the kids are in the car it really worries me. One thing that has bothered me (but i have gotten used to it) is Jakobs impulse buying. Since we have been separated, he has ended up owning 2 cars due to impulse buying. At first i thought what a silly thing to do, but now im so thankful that he did. Because he did, i can now sell my stupid van and use the money to pay off Jakobs ford and then he will give it to me under my name. It means ill have to learn manual but thats ok. Without that car of his i would have had to trade in and then payed off the rest of a new car which i don't have the money for. The ford is the youngest of the cars and would be safer to drive. Super hero to the rescue number 2.
Thing 3
With 3 little kids its hard to keep up with housework. This whole time we have been separated, He has still come over and helped clean when i needed. One time i went to church and came home and found my house clean. I was amazed. He mentioned the other day that he wanted me to pick a day when i would go out for a while and he would come round and clean my house. Now that would be bliss. Super hero to the rescue number 3.
Im so thankful for all that he has done for me lately. Sure he has made my life complicated but he has also taken some huge burdens off my hands. He has shown me that even though we are not together, he is still there for me. This last weekend he has spent a fair amount of time with the kids as well. They absolutely love and adore their dad. I still love him lots, Well as much as an ex-wife/estranged-wife can/should/whatever hmmm.

Pumpernickle
Pumpernickle, that is an odd word. This word has been stuck in my mind for all day. Why? i have no idea. It just has been.
Jahshia has gone almost the whole week with no nappy but at night. Im so proud of her. If only Devin was this easy to toilet train.
To all those who have sent me texts to my Telecom number, my phone is dead. It wont charge. So for the time being, anyone on telecom, i can not contact you through text and most likely i do not have your number because i can not turn my phone on and i have no idea when i can get a new telecom seen as i am broke broke broke and more broke.
i think that is all i will say for the time being. Im about to go out for dinner.

Proud of my little girl.
Yesterday was a milestone in Mischief Jahshias life. She went the Whole day, from when she woke up to just before she went to bed, with no nappy on. She had no accidents either. I also know though that just because she went yesterday with no mistakes, doesn't mean she is toilet trained.
Oh how i can't wait till all my Mischiefs are toilet trained. No more nappies will be bliss.

Freakin Spiders
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!
I don't like spiders. I don't like them one bit. But spiders love my house. Those jumping spiders scare the boogers out of me. But those stupid spiders love my house.
I was just folding the washing and one jumped of the item i was holding.
I am trying so hard not to pass on my fear of spiders to my children. Its very hard, but im trying.
I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!!!

Random ramblings
I feel the need to blog, but i lack a topic on which to blog about. So this will be about anything and everything that pops into my mind that i feel comfortable blogging about.
Well as you may notice my blog looks different. I finally figured out how to change my background and make it more personalized. So i hope you like. But if you don't, then oh well, to bad so sad because i do and its my blog.
How are the mischiefs you may ask. Well Devin is doing good. At the moment he is helping Jahshia learn to use the toilet. Jahshia is learning to use the toilet. Madison is doing so many new things. She really has come to life. She is now crawling, having regular sleep, eating 3 meals of solids a day and pulling herself up on things to stand up. I walked into her bedroom the other day and found her standing up in her cot.
The other day my Branch Pres. was over at my house and when he arrived i was in the midst of painting myself a picture. I love to paint and i find that i have more time to do so now that Madison is going to bed not long after the other mischiefs head off for the night. I find it rather therapeutic, which i need to add more therapeutic things into my chaotic little world. He asked me to seriously think about doing some paintings and selling them online. So when your Branch Pres. asks you to seriously think about something, its usually worth while to comply with his suggestions. So i ventured out yesterday and bought a couple of little canvases which i will paint and sell. See how that goes to see if i shall pursue this avanue in my interests.
I feel i must now end this random spew of thoughts. I have two delightfull mischiefs fighting over a cat. Poor poor cat. Cat must be rescued.

Messy mess mess mess mess mess messy
All i can really say, is that my life is rather messy at the moment. In the marriage front, its a mess. There is so much to clean up and i don't feel that all the damage has been completed as yet. But thats all i am saying on this matter. Im going to try and get back into blogging again. There is so much more to my life than a messy marriage. So i aim to find what else my life has to offer and blog about it. New year, New beginnings. Lets hope this year will be much better than last. Although so far, its not much better.
