My Hot Mess

This is us. Us summed up in one picture. We are crazy, we are wild, we pretend we know what's going on, and sometimes we just don't give a flying' .... well, you get the drift.I'm first and foremost a woman who is stubborn, gun-ho and sticks to her beliefs, though I'll listen to you babble on for hours. When I put a task up on the table, I pretty much accomplish what that task is, make what I wanted to make, and get what I want - or pretty damn close to it. I work hard both personally and professionally. I don't take crap from others, though I am very nonchalant in how I tell show you how much you pissed me off. I don't accept failure graciously, but I will try and try again until something works.There are good days, but mostly days with high stress and annoyances; but I make it a goal to end on a positive note ... even if that means I shove my face with a cookie and call it a night.  I love my family with my whole heart and nothing, I mean NOTHING, will come between me and my boys. They are my world. They may not be perfect, but neither am I. They may act up, show their mean side, or that sarcasm and attitude that is so engrained in their DNA, but they light up my life.My husband is my biggest supporter (besides my mother) and will go to bat for me even if my own stubbornness may get me in trouble. He's a strong-willed man who doesn't take no for an answer and never gives up.We are a military family. He wears a uniform, I wear a uniform. Both my sons will inform you real quickly when someone only asks if daddy is in the military. "Women serve in the military too." I believe I can do it all and sometimes that catches up to me in full stress mode. I am not ashamed to take a time out for myself and be selfish. People who are close to me know that I can be the biggest sweetheart or the biggest bitch, circumstances negotiated. I will do anything for you, but expect you to be there for me in my time of need. I don't have time for flakiness or fake relationships. This is my life. My opinions. My thoughts. You don't have to agree, hell you don't have to read, but know this IS personal and I will not tolerate ignorance or hate. With that that said, welcome to my hot mess I call LIFE.
