Ok.. I am not sure where to start with this post..

Soooooo.. I guess I will start from the beginning of today.. I sent an email to someone today that was none too appreciated. I didn't like something they did in re to my husband and just threw it out there. Well.. husby was none too pleased either. It got blown up bigger than expected.. thats for sure.. I don't know how many of you saw my post about it earlier today.. I actually pretty much put the email right up on here. .I did decide to take it down after a bit because Scott asked me to. For some reason.. I listened. Now.. That does not mean I don't stand behind what I said.. I very much do. And I am a writer.. I write.. I journal and I speak my mind. I was raised that way. I don't back down because I am afraid someone's feelings will get hurt. It's not me.. and it never will be.. My mom is very much the same way and to hear her say it.. You will NEVER have to worry about where you stand with me.. because I put it all out there and don't hide my feelings. If you are someone who knows about this situation.. then you should know how serious I take my marriage and my home.. Its not a joke to me. My husband is my world.. even though I get upset with him too at times. If I feel you are over stepping.. I will say something. I seriously don't know what the problem is with that.. but don't start crying and complaining to others.. Try being adult enough to have the conversation with me that is needed. Plain and simple. My husband did have to hear about it some today as did some other people because it seems that acting like an adult for some is hard. I guess it didn't seem adult like of me.. but with my temper.. it was best that it was in writing and not face to face. I hate that the day was harder on husby because of it. And our night was spent doing a lot of talking. But again.. that does not mean I am sorry.. I didn't mean it.. or that all is good with who I sent the email to and who I referred to in it. I am even more upset at how they handled it now. I am not going to continue any conversations about it on here or on facebook because I am not wanting to upset anyone any further.One of my girlfriends were also effected in a weird kind of way.. and she is dealing with that too. This was a problem with her too in the past.. and when I had to deal with it.. she was reminded of all the crap too. However.. Scott says he handled it when it happened.. but I said what I think needed to be said too.. now lets move on.

In my bad mood.. I needed something to do to take it off my mind. So I headed out to get dinner and ended up finding something on sale that I had to have..

A pretty new planner!!

You guys know how much I love planners.. I was actually just looking for the inserts for another one of my planners. Yes I have a rather large one but I wanted one that would be easier to carry around with me. I have lots.. that's why I only wanted the inserts. Well while I was looking I saw this one on clearance for $ 6.00 at Walmart... Can you believe that price.. I thumbed through it and thought it was a great bargain for that price.

Let me show you how its made.. so you guys understand how it works..


Of course its got a pocket and its a 7 prong binder that holds everything in..


The months are tabbed..

You get your month view.. as in all of them..

But here is how the day to day looks..


Here is how a week looks..


at the top there is To do/ Errands list for the week..


and on the other side is the school/community area and the personal time area..

The pink column is suppose to be for you and the 4 other columns are suppose to be for other members of the family


On the opposite side there is a a place for menu planning.. which I love.. a place for notes and the rest of the area is for Sat and Sun.

Then you flip on and you come onto the

Emergency area..


frequently called #'s


website pages..


and this area is a area for your grocery list that is perforated so you can tear them out easily..

love it!!

And your phone book area.

Then you have a


card holder..

And a little zip lock


bag area to hold stamps and such..

There is also the note area..

and lets not forget that there is all the detailed


instructions that help you how to understand this system better.

I am really excited to start using this.. Of course I love the color too. I think its a great bargain.. I don't know if they will reduced where you live or not.. I just happened to stumble upon it when looking for the other inserts.

Its just something that made me happy in a very complex day!

Another thing that made my night a little better is..



the faces of my babies looking up at me.. They are such sweethearts and they don't do drama.. They do play and love.. thats it.. Too bad we can't all be like them.

I think a lot of times Ego gets in the way for a lot of us. I really believed I was.. my family was.. being attacked in a way.. and I didn't like it. Its easier to see it in others than its yourself. But today was not a shinning moment for me.. but rather a lesson. I have to learn to let go of the reins some and try to trust that my husband will do things right.. without me in his ear, coaching him along. He is such a smart man and I have to trust his judgement a bit more. I am a huge control freak.. I doubt that will change much. I like to take charge and that didn't really work out like I thought it would today!

I am trying to grow and learn.. its not easy.. but I have to try to keep my temper under control!

Scott did understand why I said what I said but would have rather I have told him about it.. So another lesson learned.. Tell husby when sending an email to someone at his work place!!

I am not so upset anymore. I am sure if we start talking about it again.. those upset feelings will come right back out but I am going to try to understand his point of view too.. The last thing I want to do is make his life harder.. so got to try to remember that before my temper gets the best of me.. but still..

I meant EVERYTHING I said.. I just wish I would have told him about it right afterwards so he wouldn't have been blind sided about it today..

I don't think Scott is working all day tomorrow which is just fine with me. I don't get that much time with him.. he is at work a lot.. around people I don't like.. and we need some extra time together. So hopefully tomorrow is better. Sunday was great.. and of course the drama queens around there made today hard.. but they are not going to ruin tomorrow too. No way.. I think the dealership had enough of this so my fingers are crossed that tomorrow is a fresh new day. I talked to my mom in Scotland about it.. talked to Scott's family about it.. talked to my girlfriends in Indiana about it.. and you know.. ALL THE WOMEN AGREE WITH ME... Its the men who don't... Amazing.. But we are all different!!

Well I am heading to bed for some rest!!

Waking to a new fresh BETTER day!

xoxo
