What would your craigslist Ad read

As I was driving to work early this am, I was thinking of all the events that occurred yesterday that made me want to sell my kids on craigslist..... Would I be honest in hopes someone would want to rehabilitate them..or sugar coat their personalities... just to get them off my hands....

GIVEAWAY to a good home...
Three wild savages all potty trained but do not respond well to firm direction.   Often whine, whimper and feel that they are being picked on.  Fight when it is time for ....homework, to do chores, to shower, to go to bed, to go to school, or whenever they feel like it.
Please be prepared for screaming, yelling, hitting and a lot of MOOOOOMMMMMM.. to come your way.
Must have a bottomless money pit... they require mall trips, Lego's, Nerf guns, make up, movies, but they mostly like to blow money like it is going out of style...
I don't answer to spam so please text or email if you would like to take a look at these rotten kids....

What would your craigslist say????

Crossing our fingers for good health this week!!

Chase had the flu the entire week last week, which made it miserable for ... well me... It seems like the popsicles have paid off and he is feeling better.  Today he started in on his pile of homework.... I think he have maybe gotten smarter while he was sick...just sayin'... he was converting feet into inches like nobodys buisness...

Saturday the kids and I were able to spend sometime with a very special family of mine that I met at work!!  We met at Just Kiddin' Around and a fun time.  They let you come in and out as much as you want.  We left for a while to grab a bite to eat at Red Robin then back to play.  Gina and I were so tired and all we did was watch kids play... oh and talked... maybe that is why we are so tired.  Cooper loved playing with the girls.. and I think he might just have a crush on someone......  He is a ladies man you know....

Until next time........keep bloggin'

Momma's got talent!!!!!

 I decided to try my hand at 'Re-Doing" furniture.  I bought this cute cabinet at Antique Mall in Boise for $80. It was painted a gross color gray and has brass handles.  I love the handles.. just not the color.  The best part of this piece is that it is on casters so it will roll.  The drawers can fit all my papers!! Hurray.  I know that is alittle much, but it was love at first first sight.  I think Jamie thinks I am crazy, which I problely am because when will I find the time to do this?

So with a little TLC, this is my final project!!! I did paint it RED and spay painted the handles black.... I love it.... When did I find the time?  When the kids were sick and asleep... I am super excited about it!  Next is a desk I bought in Oregon with my girlfriend Jen.  More to come.......

Changes At the Oneida's House

As another week ends, I sit and wonder what all we have done this week.  One major change is a new activity for Chase.. (who is turning 11 tomorrow @ 0934).. Chase was recently accepted into the YEAH program http://www.vvdailypress.com/articles/idaho-18909-care-obesity.html .  As a family we are very excited about this new venture!!! Last we started with a physical assessment at the local YMCA.  Tuesday we had a wonderful nutrition class and tonight another workout.  Parents are encouraged to be involved, so Jamie and I went with Chase, met new parents and got a workout out in to.  YEAH is program that helps fight the childhood obesity war.  We can't wait till our next class...
Chase had his first job interview today.  He is going to be dog sitting for a friend of a friend.  He will be babysitting 4 Yorke's... Lucy, Lilly, Snickers, and Peanut.  He is very excited to have a first job.  He would always get upset when Kaylee had babysitting jobs and he had nothin'. 
Here is to another crazy week come and gone!! Tomorrow we will celebrate Chase... my little man is growing up...

Does Meridian School District ever have school

Is it me or does Meridian School District ever have school?  This is the same exact look I give when I find out there is a so called "Teacher Inservice".... Really where are our tax dollars going...... Because it isn't going to my kids math skills that is for sure!! We decided to have a family day on the day school was out... Which day you ask... Well, Meridian District has so many days off I can't remember which day it was!!!!!
