Moved Again... So Sorry!

Hey everyone!

I have had to move my blog again... I have had several people state that they can't view this blog and I found that my RSS feed is really screwed up. I have moved back over to wordpress at http://ordinarymiracle.wordpress.com and I hope this will cure the problem. I promise this will be my last home.

Come by and visit me... PLEASE... and bring your friends.

Spoiling a Child...

When I was a little girl I was very spoiled. I was spoiled by my parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. The "spoiling" died down when I turned 4 years old, my middle sister was born. I have been told that I cried out for attention many a time. The stories I have heard are always very humorous. Example: When friends of my parents came over to the house. I brought my potty chair into the room where all the adults were and showed them how I could do #1 and #2.

As I became a teenager I always had to get my way. If I didn't get my way I lashed out by doing something "evil", well not really "evil" but wrong. I was a horrible teenager. If I was told I couldn't do something or couldn't have something, I always found some way of getting what I wanted. I was a professional liar to my parents and my temper was just uncalled for... still is sometimes. I came across a TV show not to long ago that was reporting on child "wanna be" stars. Some of the kids/ teenagers reminded me of... well, ME at their age.

Back in the day, I had stars in my eyes and I would have stopped at nothing to get what I wanted and to reach the goal of "stardom". I was a bratty little cuss and if I was told I needed to work on my vocals or I screwed up a note... I was a little bitch about the whole thing. Instead of taking the criticism and trying to make myself better, I would brush it off as whomever was doing the criticizing had no clue what they were talking about. I thought I was the shanizzle and no one could tell me any different. Until I "fell on my face" I was the "queen" of my little world of Shayna. I am not sure if a lot of this was wanting the attention of my mother... she and I had a lot of difficulties while I was a teenager... the fences between she and I still have not been completely mended. (Can you tell I have "Mommy" issues?)

As an adult, I am no longer that little liar, temper tantrum throwing, "evil" kid/ teenager. Although, my temper can flair when I get mad... which doesn't happen often... but when it does... WATCH OUT! :)

I am writing this because I worry so much about my 3 year old son. I see so much of me in him. He has my temper and is spoiled just like I was. I do not want him to be "evil" like I was. I want to have a better relationship with him than I did with my mother. I don't want him to lie to me to get his way... I don't want him to turn into a little me. I want him to be appreciative of the things he is given and of the things my husband and I do for him. I want him to know that it isn't "Will's World" and that everything doesn't revolve around him. We, my family and I, are very guilty of letting him get away with whatever he wants and I am sooooo trying to put an end to it now before it gets worse. He is already throwing fits, lying and being so sneaky. Again, I see so much of me in him and it scares me to death.

I hope I am over reacting. This has been on my mind and I had to get it off my chest. :)

Catching Up

So, life has been crazy sense having my 2nd child almost 7 months ago. I can't complain to much because he has been the best baby ever and my oldest son has been wonderful. It is just hard being a working mom... I can't imagine being a working SINGLE mom. My hubby has been wonderful and I can't thank GOD enough for having him as a great father and hubby.

WORK... work has been very crazy. We are getting more and more business and I am getting more and more behind. We so need more developers and designers. I had one website I developed and designed that I worked on for 3 months because I had no clue how to make the damn thing work. I figured it out and the customer loved it. I just worked on a website for the novelist Thomas H Block. He wrote "Mayday"... it was turned into a TV movie in 2005. Anyways... I made a simple site for his ranch in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I really liked working with him. I have worked on several sites for a lot of Cowboys and Ranches. I know nothing about horses... but I can design a site for them. :)

LIFE AT HOME... my children have been wonderful. They demand a lot of TLC and attention. I tell you, I have the perfect life when it comes to my little family.

William says the funniest things. For Example: I asked him the other day to pick up his dinosaurs. He looked me dead in the eye and stated "But Mom... that's IMPOSSIBLE." Impossible? Where did he get that? He is sooooo into dinosaurs. HE LOVES THEM. I kid you not... I counted how many dino's he has... 127 . Yeap, 127! AND... he loves to put them all in bed with him.

Carter is growing up so fast. He will be 7 months on the 23rd. He is sitting up perfectly and is rolling around everywhere. He is so much fun to be around... constantly smiling, laughing and "talking". A pure delight he is.

Hubby is doing great. He is busy with his job as well. His company just bought out another company in Boulder, CO. I kind of hope they offer him a job there. A change would be good for us I think.

My mother has gotten worse... poor pitiful her. She is really bringing me and my sisters down. There is no need for the things she does and says and I really want to get away from her. I hate feeling this way about my mother... yet, she does it to herself.

POLITICS... I don't even know where to begin. I really have no clue who I am going to vote for next year. Honestly I like none of the candidates on either side. So, what to do? I am truly sick of Clinton supporters playing her ticket as the "woman" in the race and Obama supporters playing him as the "African American" in the race. I could care less what gender or color you are... impress me with your mind and what you can do for me and my family and the future of the United States. Don't bring in the gender and race discussion. I DON'T CARE! I hate it when people play those games... As for the republican side... OY!

My boss started preaching his beliefs on abortion the other day. Oh, that got heated. I told him it was my body and if by chance I made the choice to abort... it was none of his business. He got fired up. My point to him was... I don't believe in abortion as a form of birth control... but I do believe if I were raped or my health was in danger... I say that I should have the choice to abort. He so didn't agree and I thought I was going to be fired. I asked him if his daughter was raped by an African American and she became pregnant he would want her to have the baby (the reason why I used African American in the example is because he is so raciest)... extremely red faced he turned and walked away. My point being... a woman should have a choice if she has been violated, if she has health issues or if the child has no hope of living or extremely deformed. I know there are other option available for women, such as adoption. I'm just saying that women should have the choice. I could go on about this all day.

Well... I have kind of caught you all up.

So, Maybe I'm Back

Okay, so here is the deal. I have had blogging withdrawals and couldn't take it any longer. I have tried the myspace thing and really couldn't get in to that. I canceled www.mymusichighway.com mainly because hubby didn't want to have to pay for the hosting every month... because that money could go towards baby formula. Plus, I made him cancel some computer web game he had taken out of our checking every month... so I suppose we are even.

Like I said, I did cancel mymusichighway.com two months ago and just noticed it is still live. The hosting bill hasn't been coming out of my checking... so I think I may have to email ewebscapes.com and let them know I am no longer a customer and they may want to take my site down.

I am still very busy... but you know, sometimes a girls got to rant or speak her mind... and blogging has always been a good outlet... AND believe me, these past few months I could have done some ranting on politics and work... it has been a little "harry" around here!

I suppose I have been wishy washy on the whole blogging thing since being pregnant with Carter. So, I apologize for my wishy washy blogging ways.

I have so much to write about... but tonight I am very tired and must go.

Let me know what you think of the new digs. Also, visit Little William's and Little Carter's Blogs, links are located on the sidebar.

I'll be playing with the ole' blog a little layer to bring it back up to par. I am glad to be half way back and I have missed you all!
