Yeah so…..hi everyone. Been a long while, but having two baby boys to take care of takes alot of time and energy. They are 15 weeks old now and doing awesome! They’ve been teething though, so its not all sunshine and unicorns, but I love them more than I can ever say with words. Anyway, um, I’ve decided that I’ll post stuff here mostly on Fridays and maybe weekends, since I don’t wanna totally neglect my blog, but I can’t be on it everyday either. So hope everyone is doing OK, and if I’ve never mentioned it before…thank you for following me! It means alot.

38 and guess what? It’s not so bad

My year thus far has been filled with firsts; pregnancy, giving birth, feeding a baby, changing a diaper, getting peed on by Joshua (and shortly after by Jesse), being able to wear my wedding ring for the first time in more than 2 years, first valentines day as a mother, first birthday as a mother, and in the near future my first Mother’s day. And it’s only April!So, yesterday was my 38th birthday. Which means two more years till the big 40. Eeeek!
We dropped the boys off at our friends house and went to dinner and a movie. We were just about to have the waitress bring the bill instead of bringing dessert, when hubby asks her if they do something for birthdays. I’m sitting there thinking ‘whose birthday is it?’ When I suddenly remember..its mine. I smile sheepishly as she looks to me asking if it was my birthday. I wait for the lame to begin as I tell hubby that I just about forgot it was my birthday. Then. I see them coming. The team of people that gather round your table and do the lame birthday thing. I roll my eyes and laugh as it continues. Then they give us the dessert and it’s over. They go away leaving me fealing like the embarrassed 15 year old I carry around in my soul.
Then after finishing the yummy dessert, we fly off to the movies where we see American Reunion. It was everything an American Pie movie should be, and more. So much more. Stifler was still Stifler and this time he got to do the nasty with someone. I’m not telling, so there! Anyway it was a good night and when we got home after getting the boys back hubby had a surprise for me. Well, a few actually. He got me this awesome tablet from Toshiba. Very cool. The other…well I won’t say exactly but it was sexual in nature and very surprising….in a great way.

Wow. What a powerful statement. A sad but true commentary on our times.

There must be another life, she thought, sinking back into her chair, exasperated. Not in dreams; but here and now, in this room, with living people. She felt as if she were standing on the edge of a precipice with her hair blown back; she was about to grasp something that just evaded her. There must be another life, here and now, she repeated. This is too short, too broken. We know nothing, even about ourselves.

I am a 21 year-old student from Finland.

It makes me sad to hear how Americans are suffering.

Here, our taxes are high but we all benefit from them.

I grew up in the countryside and always had access to the same services that people in the city did.

My university is known around the world in my field and my education is not only free, but my government pays ME to go to university. Everyone has a right to this.

Everyone has a right to the best healthcare, there is no such thing as health insurance.

I am young now and able to take risks and pursue my passion because I will never have to worry about starving if I loose my job or my business fails.

I know that when I am old my state pension will be there for me so that I can enjoy my retirement.

We call this the Nordic Model, and under it we live well and our businesses are among the most competitive in the world. I am grateful to have been born a citizen of a country that cares for its people, and I hope that one day the USA will take example from us.

I am the 99%. 

Finland for the win, why can’t we model our country the same way?

YES.

New babies, a new house, and a new me

Just had twin boys five weeks ago! With the struggles and frustrations in the first two weeks, I thought I was not doing enough. I was not giving myself enough credit. We just moved into a place; our first place in three years and I smile at the word “our”. I feel I have a family, where before I didn’t really.

So many things are changing. I am changing…

I can feel thoughts and attitudes realigning…it’s like I’m metamorphosing into the butterfly I have been waiting so long to be. The cocoon is opening. I have this new identity I need to feel comfortable and confident with. I am a Mom. This is such a strange feeling. It’s like new skin.

And to match what I feel on the inside, I am returning to Weight Watchers to continue what I started before I got pregnant. Although I actually weigh less now than pre-pregnancy! Don’t ask me how: I have no idea. Course it could be all the baby lifting, walking back and forth all day, or the vigorous shaking of formula that happens every four to six hours…..

In any case, my life has and is changing for the better, and I feel myself flowing with it, instead of my usual MO of fighting against any and all change.

Black Teen Shot, Killed By Neighborhood Watch (by TheYoungTurks)

TRIGGER WARNING (commentary on the shooting death of Trayvon Martin)

The 1:30 mark made me clap. Finally. An emotional, raw coverage from a news reporter

dude wtf 

Like the bolded said, finally

My girl just goes off around the 1:30 mark…

HOLY SHIT she went OFF i love her!

Her anger was beautiful. To see a woman, especially a white appearing woman, show anger towards the injustices perpetuated by racism is so enthralling. Mind you, just being angry doesn’t give her a gold medal for understanding, but it does show that not all white appearing women are cold, unforgiving, racists. That certainly gives me hope.

White people are just slaughtering out youth in the streets and jack shit iis being done about it. Unfuckinbelievable. Pisses me off

Ummm……the youth is also being slaughtered by people of their own race!!! Don’t you fuckin’ blame a specific race for the demise of another. All races have good and bad, all races have infighting where they kill each other. And yes, of course people should react with anger when faced with the injustices of the world, and if you don’t get angry, why the fuck not?
