:: In the news today ::



:: I can't sleep. I have a semi-truck living on my face. I need the drugs to kick in. They are not working so I'm watching "slice" tv and blogging ::


:: What else would a mother of two small children do when she can't sleep @ 4:45 am? ::


:: Jacob is sick as well, cold & a fever. Fabulous ::


:: I thought he was on the mend yesterday then it all went down hill. Rash, fever (again), then puking. Poor little man, poor Me & Paul. Not the best way to kick off the long weekend! ::


:: Jacob did help me plant some of these seeds yesterday - they are perennials so hopefully they stick and return strong every year, that would be such a treat! ::




:: As I was sitting down to blog this I saw this headline "Shania to split from husband"::



:: Is it just me or do y'all get upset when people in the public/famous eye get separated? I was so sad when Brad & Jen separated. I feel for people in the media, I have a hard enough time working on my relationship let alone having some crazy paparazzi following me around just waiting for me to slip up on some level ::



:: The headlines would be quite catchy if I were in the media "Shawna just can't shake the weight...No matter how much her butt shakes!" / "Shawna caught speeding again!" / "Where are Shawna's kids, who is raising them now?" / "Shawna's heading down to the States to go SHOPPING again" / "Shawna's yelling at her kids in the car, while speeding" / "Shawna locks husband out of house with kids inside and refuses to come home"



* * * It all has to do with interpretation * * *



No comment of me eating salad and cutting back on sweets / Kay well I'm guilty for speeding, but who isn't? / My kids are babysat, a couple times a week, it wouldn't be healthy for me and my relationship with Paul if they weren't / Yes, I shop in the States, but I don't "like" shopping, I have to shop - I have a family, duh!?!!? / I sing in the car, often, loudly. I'm not yelling / Yes, I locked my hubby out of the house with the kids inside, but not on purpose!



See what I mean, it's all up for interpretation. I feel for the stars who just want a "normal" life, to love and be loved. I pray for them - I really do feel bad for them and their marriages which get put through the paparazzi gauntlet at every turn ::



:: Okay, that's enough...I'm going back to the couch. Have a great Saturday everyone...I'm hoping to get some sun, It's supposed to be amazing out!::

I read that about Shania+Mutt yesterday in the Vancouver Sun. I just think it's so sad. 14 years. I really thought they were going to last; and they have a little boy and everything. So sad.

Candice said...

Well, with a name like "Mutt", he was in the dog house to begin with...haha ! Just kidding, it is really sad and when it involves children, it's even more sad !

Shawna said...

Oh Candice - you're SO funny.

It is very sad but true, the kid will suffer!

I agree with you Shawna! The media are so ridiculous and just won't leave them alone. Granted, people keep buying up all the magazines which just fuels the fire. I just think that it's so sad how many marriages don't make it.

Love the ramblings......it's funny, when I can't sleep I just keep rolling over hoping that will work, maybe I should try blogging! That's an awesome reminder for me to spend less time judging and more time praying for those in the spotlight....thanks!
Love,
Christy and Bambino MaC
