Spanglish₂

  So I was finally able to watch Spanglish after the 55 minute download from I tunes.. seriously!?  It was well worth the wait though.. My original bedtime of ten that was planned.. was than pushed back 4 hours.. I tried many times to stop the video and go to bed.. but I couldn’t!! It was so good.. especially now that I am a mama and a wife.. I was watching it with a new point of view and values..  Its quote time baby!

John Clasky: Worrying about your kids is sanity, and being that sane… can drive you nuts

Deborah Clasky: How are you nicer than me?
John Clasky: You didn’t set the bar that high.

Evelyn Wright: We have to talk.
Deborah Clasky: Mother, are you buzzed?
Evelyn Wright: No. I quit drinking weeks ago! No one noticed, but I guess that’s a pretty good indicator that I conducted myself quite well when I was drunk. But this isn’t about me right now. 

Deborah Clasky: You were an alcoholic and wildly promiscuous woman during my formative years so that im in this fix because of you, it is your fault and I just needed that moment for us to build on.
Evelyn Wright: You have a solid point dear… but right now the lessons of my life are coming in handy for you.

Narrator :your acceptance, while it would thrill me, will not define me.

on another note.. 

  This morning me and my Oli bear had a brunch date! We have had a couple before.. but with her getting older.. they actually feel like quality time on both ends… I did notice as well (thanks to my sister telling me) that is was such a great mellow time.. because there were no expectations.. If I go out for brunch with some friends or Dustin.. we are trying to have conversations.. and Olive is vying for our time.. and my stress levels rise a tad because I am wanting to be involved in the conversation.. but being with just her.. she received all my attention (that is until the best eggs bennyin the world arrived in front of my face).. she knew it was only me and her and she wasn’t worried about fighting over mommy or daddy.. It was such a fun time.. followed by the coffee shop.. and than a much needed nap.. for both of us :)  The weather turned a little cold and windy and we were cuddling indoors all day.. with a little visit to the cousins two doors down.. I do believe that Winston and Olive are almost.. dare I say it.. becoming friends!  Now that they are on the same height level.. it is game on!  We were lucky enough to have Quentin supervise while me and Auntie lew-lella (olives word) were able to finish a couple bottles of wine and some Housewives of New Jersey episodes.. Isnt mama hood great!!

ahh.. back when life was sooo hard!! ;) how that dishwasher ever got unloaded.. I will never know..
