Realization Friday

Its been way too long!!!

I have like 3 different posts started and stuck in draft. UGH. I would say maybe this weekend I will finally sit down and finish them up... but yea.. who am I kidding. I doubt I will have any free time and if I do, Ill be wanting to nap!!!

But anyway... I figured I can at least start- and finish a realization friday post... since its been forever since I've posted and even longer since I've done a realization post. :-)


I have come to realize that:

~ I am addicted to caramels!

~ God has finally brought an absolutely amazing man into my life.

~ I can not stop picking my fingers!! ugh.

~ I feel so blessed!!!

~ I have two absolutely wonderful kids!

~ I have no idea what I would do with out my mom and my stepdad in my life.

~ I had no idea that my neighbor was as awesome as he's shown he is.

~ Sometimes when it feels like relationships are changing that maybe its time to take a step back for a minute and re-evaluate things.

~ I have become very forgetful lately.

~ This is going to be an insane weekend.


I hope everyone has an amazing weekend!!!

This week I have come to realize:

~ that I am so ready for warm weather!!!

~ that sometimes I just need a hot bath, candle light, a glass of wine and a good nights sleep… and sometimes I just need a vacation.

~ that God is so good!!!

~ that I really want to write… a book maybe?! Idk yet…

~ that I have lost so much motivation in the last week. All I want to do is sleep.

Hope it’s a great weekend for ya’ll and I am really hoping that it warms up here some- especially for the St. Patricks Day parade Sunday!!!

Realization Friday

Its been way too long since I did a Realization Friday post. For those of you that have no idea what a Realization Friday is... well its when I gather up the things that I have come to realize for the week and post them on here... I also collect realization from my readers also. If you have a realization that you would like to send in, please email me at overthinkingmama@gmail.com.   You realization will be posted anonymously, so don't feel shy or embarrassed by anything that you send in. :-)

So without further delay...

This week I have come to realize:

~ that I do not like pushy guys. Just because I give you 5mins of attention does not mean that we are meant to be, that we will be a happy couple or that we will be married.

~ that I am starting to have more days where I am just brutally honest about things. Its becoming harder and harder to keep my mouth shut.

~ that I am too nice at times.

~ I am easily discouraged.

~ that I give everyone at least one chance...even when I probably shouldn't.

~ that my son's school seriously frustrates me.

~ that even now after being divorced 7years... my ex husband still apologizes to me for things said when he's upset. :-) 

~ that I don't want to date anymore. I am tired of all the bs... and I need to just focus on me, my babies, and my Lord. 

~ that some people... just don't get me.

~ that some people do not understand the meaning of NO. lol. 

Hope ya'll have had a good week. and have a great weekend!!!

the drive into work :-) via instagram

Man, I am seriously sucking lately at doing my weekly Realization Friday post. I'll try and get better with that... but I am sorry, I can't make any promises. 


I will try tho. lol. 


This week I have come to realize: 


~ that people you thought would be there to help- ain't always going to be there.


~ that just because you don't talk for months to a good friend, doesn't mean they are not still a friend. 


~ that the Lord is the only one who will be able to get me thru anything. 


~ that I really want to get my 1/2 sleeve done. 


~ that since I started leaving my dogs out the cage during the day, they aint as crazy at night. 


~ that my big dog seriously thinks he's my boyfriend- or something. lol. 


~ that sometimes all I need is some good music to uplift my spirit.


~ that I am def. not as popular as I was last Fall. Which is fine, a little disheartening and a small blow to the ego, but I know most the people I was texting on a daily basis will lead me down a path I really do not want to go. 


~ that I am going to live my life for my Lord. I don't want to be who I was. 




Hope ya'll have a great weekend!! Not sure what we are doing yet... but I know it will be fun, one way or another. :-) 

Could you also do me a favor?? Could you please go and vote for me over on Circle of Moms? I have been nominated for the Top 25 Single Mom blogs... I really want to stay in the top 25. :-) Thank you so much!!!  Just click on here.

Realization Friday!

 Its been awhile… but finally.. finally.. finally… I am doing a Realization Friday post!

This week I have come to realize:

~ that out of all the days… Friday are the most tiredest ones for me.  (and yes I just made up a new work)

~ that I really think that the weather effects my moods. Last weekend it was perfect here and for the first time in months, I have actually felt normal

~ that I really am super blessed

~ that I really need 3day weekends.. Just can’t get everything done in 2 days! Ugh.

~ that the closer I get to being able to put my house up for sale.. the more the kids to crap to push me back.

~ that sometimes I think people forget that I work full time and have two kids to raise.

~ that I have an awesome support system. I really don’t know what I would do with out my mom!

~ that a friendship is only as much as both people put into it. if only one person makes the effort, its no better off than if neither put in the effort.

~  that God has a plan for me.. I just need to keep praying about it and be open to where He calls me!!

I hope ya’ll have a wonderful weekend!!!!

~  that God has brought some amazing people into my life.

o.m.g. (oh. My. Gosh.)  I am so happy its Friday. This week has flown by tho.  So I am thankful for that… and so thankful for my Lord for getting me out of the funk I was in last week…  sometimes you need the tear to cleanse your eyes so you can truly see again!!

This week I have come to realize:

~ that in order to truly be happy- my focus needs to be on the Lord and not so much on life.

~ that things never turn out the way you want them to.

~ that life is a roller coaster at times.

~ communication is key to everything… with out it you are just stuck on stupid.

~ lists are very important!!

~ I need to get a good bible study guide and a new devotional. (any suggestions??)

~ that I seriously dislike having to call people.

~ I need to get into YOGA. I want to be able to obtain my dream to be a Christian Yoga Instructor.

~ sometimes I feel people look down on me…  Im 30 with an almost 10 year old,  not married. 2 kids.  But ya know what??!!!  Im a kick ass woman!! Period.  The Lord has made me who I am, brought me to where I am.  Im supporting my family. I own my own home.  Been at the same job for 8 yrs now.  I may not be the ideal woman… nor I may not be where I wanted to be by this point in my life.  But I am here. I did it with out a man’s help or my parents help (financially).  I am strong. I am beautiful.  I am the woman God created, every single day I am becoming the woman he wants me to be.

Have a great weekend ya’ll!!!

This week I have come to realize:

~ that sometimes life is harder than we ever thought possible…

~ that sometimes I feel like my life right now… is just the waiting period for the real life I should have to start…

~ that I suck at remember my realizations

~ that I have been in a funk the past few weeks… I need to break that cycle

Yay!! Its Realization Friday!!

Here we are having our first REAL snow storm of the year! All I want to do it grab my kids, head home, light some candles, watch a movie and snuggle up with them on the couch.  But… those plans are going to have to hold off till at least tomorrow.  

Tonight, lil man is heading to his dads for the weekend and baby girl and I are heading over to a new beau’s J to hang out for a bit.. 

But anywho… Here are my realization for the week. Didn’t get any help this week L. Oh well.

This week I have come to realize:

~  that I want to get closer and closer to my Lord!

~  that working out everyday during the work week- kicks your  butt!!

~  that I love working out!

~  that life, love and realationships don’t always go as planned.

~  calling someone 3days in a row, leaving voicemails and not getting a call back is super annoying.

~  that I don’t like a lot of Lady Antebellum songs.  They kinda depress me. And Adelle.. sorry she just annoys me anymore.

~   not everyone in life is going to have the same beliefs as you but it is not your place to judge them but to be open about them and realize – to each their own.

~   that putting my life into God’s hands, praying continuously and letting him direct me is the best choice I have ever made with my life.

Hope ya’ll have a wonderful weekend!

Its Realization Friday time… I am sorry its been so long since I’ve posted. Just so much going on and no motivation… I am going to try and change that this weekend. Hopefully. J

I actually had help this week with my realizations!!!  Thank you!!! 

This week I have come to realize:

~ that when a great person comes into your life and makes you feel great… you tend to forget all the good feelings anyone else ever made you feel.

~  that’s its hard for some people to be honest.

~ that it seems that no one thinks that I work… and that I can take care of whatever it is they need.

~  that men suck

~  that my life could be so much worse

~ that just because a movie has two huge actors in it doesn’t mean its going to be good.

~ that I am never going to be happy till I am happy with myself.

~  That my ex will never get his shit together and it makes me really sad.

~  that my parents are always going to tell me to get rid of my dogs.

~ that it seems crazy and too good to be true.. but I am letting go and falling in love with him.

~ that I seriously have slacked with the blog the last few weeks.. I need to get on that.

I hope ya’ll have a great weekend.  I am looking forward to tonight. The man that I am interested is coming over. I am really excited for that!  Then we are going out with a bunch of friends for a going away type gathering for my sis. She’s gotta go back to Cbus after being here for 2 months. L
