Suicide

My life has been affected by suicide. My loved ones have attempted, I lost my very dear cousin and friend two years ago, two high school friends this year, and at a younger age I had suicidal thoughts.
I have started reading a book and just wanted to share. As a person that has not attempted and hasn't thought of it in over a decade, I didn't think this would help ME, I was reading it for someone else. But in the first three chapters, I feel a life change happening. I will be buying more copies of this book and am willing to share it with anyone that wants to read it. I am understanding more of my cousin's decision, I am learning how better to talk to people about it and I am finally understanding my own thoughts from years ago.

Sunrise Sausage Bake

Hello, I am Kakie, Rachael and Melissa's mommy.  I have always enjoyed cooking and recently have found a new interest in experimenting with recipes.  I'm even canning!  I made this recipe for my hubby and the guys at his work, it went over so well that they even offered to pay me to make it!  Rachael asked us to babysit her Nugget, the boy wonder, last night and I offered to make it for breakfast today.  She liked it enough that she asked me to post it here.  The recipe falls under my family legacy on recipes......looks difficult, but in fact?  Easy, easy, easy!  Enjoy! Oh, FYI, this freezes and reheats extremely well.

Stop Asking if I'm Pregnant

No, I'm not pregnant. I'm chunky.
No, I'm not pregnant. Sometimes, I get sick to my stomach. 
No, it's not "time" for a family addition. I don't know when it will be, but it's not up to me. 

Things My Husband Does to Piss Me Off.

Today, my husband and I went to the grocery store. I grabbed  a cart (a non car shaped one, to the chagrin of my 2y/o) and started to get set up to shop. It seems it takes me a lot of prep, HEB is very intimidating. Then, hubby asked if I brought something, something very important... something like means to pay. Whoopsy Daisy! So, he offers to go back to the truck, grab it and meet me in the store. While offering, he sets the toddler to the cart seat and places him in... BACKWARDS. Oh my God. What is wrong with people?! I said, "Why did you put him in that way?" DH says, "I figured you'd fix him."
