How does a couple took a second chance at love and mixtures of five children, four cats, three dogs, two fish and a bird
When I say people that my husband and has a mixed family of five children, two boys and three girls, I hear laughter obvious and the usual comment that our life is like the television show. They are, of course, referring to the Brady Bunch, an idyllic, fantasy and comedy of yesteryear, where besides being beaten Marsha in the nose with a ball Jan football and development of an allergy to flea powder, life was fairly tame (and lame if you ask my kids). I agree that my life is like a television program, but more along the lines of a modern day program reality, like Survivor. When I see a group of adults disputes over the coconut milk dressed in tiny outfits in front of a fireplace in the tropics, all I can think is: "Big deal, what's the problem?" Try to eat five irritable, bored, dirty, exhausted children at a camp trip, in tight quarters, in the rain for five days. To survive! Better yet, see if you can pack five lunches each morning, cooking dinner for seven in the evening, attend four different soccer matches in one day, twenty loads of laundry washed per week and feign interest in the history of his daughter on the strange boy in his class who eats paper.
My life is far from ideal. My dogs smell, my house is not clean once and I forget to water my plants until they die and I have to get them out. We manage. I have my priorities. At least do not forget to feed the children. How could? They always hanging over me for food. Then, of course, is the constant juggling of lines of five, alternating between the three houses separated. Who left the green holiday dad or your math textbook in their mother? I seem to always forget something somewhere. I remember the five Children must be at all times is a challenge worthy of an offensive coordinator in the NFL. I can not tell you how many times I pressed the teeth in one of my children, "Ponte shoes, get in the car, going to be late for soccer! "only to discover that I led in the wrong field and forgot it was my turn to have a snack. Oh, how I wish my life was like Carol Brady. He would have time to read, and sleep and eat without interruption. It would have a maid. My husband and never fight and I could go to the bathroom alone. I tried to take comfort in the idea that at least my hair is better and I'm not walking in pantsuits two-point frame.
Actually, I love my life and not change it for anything. When my first marriage ended in divorce and I went back into the scene only at age 40 I really thought coupledom my day was over. With two children under 9 years, and struggling to support myself as a single mother, not only have time for appointments, he had no confidence either. I worried that my children not to accept a new man in my life, or worse, a new man would not accept either. I left with the childless men were impatient with or lacked understanding of the demands and challenges of having children. Moreover, men with families were in the same situation that was no time or energy. Although I considered my children my greatest asset, which had to face the harsh reality that not all of my dating prospects thought so. Refusing to believe that my children were a responsibility, or "baggage" as one man put it, I gave up on appointments, he retired in me himself and feared that I would spend the rest of my life alone. Then I met and fell in love with Paul, a loving father of three years and have decided to marry and mix of our family five children, four cats, three dogs, two fish and a bird. As a mother of two recently remarried and his stepmother of three, I decided to start this blog because I feel I have a message of hope and guidance to share with parents and children who are already or are thinking of getting into blended families.
When he got word that my husband and I were engaged, people she barely knew, mostly known school of my children come to me in parties football or in the store and flood me with questions. "How did you meet? No children together How can what are the custody arrangements? "The more I answered his questions became more specific." How do you get everyone to school on time? How can split the holidays? Do you really cook dinner for seven people every night and every package of five lunch tomorrow? "(Yes, I do. Every two weeks. View my RECIPES page dinners family to learn tips and menu ideas.)
I quickly realized that not only do not want advice, they wanted inspiration and confidence that it was possible to re-marry and blend their families too. A dear friend of mine, once a single mother and recently became to marry into a family of mixing said, "You are my ray of hope." If that's the case then I will try to shine as bright as I can, and most importantly, say how it is. The same friend also told me he admired my honesty. I try to keep it real. I am in ecstasy happy now, but when it smells of life, and often can I'll make sure to know. Everyone has problems and nobody's life is a bed of roses. Please read and write reviews for us to laugh and mourn together, grinding the teeth, wring their hands, share our joys and triumphs, and most importantly learn from others.
We are Shwanda, which is not ours real name. It is a combination of both names for our children came up one day when they were playing a computer game called Sims. The object is to design and build a house and raise a family to live happily in it, which is exactly what we did. This is our story.
Note: I know that many people reading this blog already know me. With regard to the general public in the interest of protecting the privacy of my family, I have changed their names. I to refer to my husband as Paul, his eldest son, 17 Sam, the youngest son, 15 and Mark, and daughter, 11, Cheryl. My older daughter, 15 is called, Sofia and my youngest daughter, 12, as Eve. As for me, just call me Carol. This should be very interesting because I can not remember his name now.

I have 5 tanks of tropical fish in my bedroom & I leave the lights on 24 / 7 in 4 of them, will this hurt my fish? ?
I love going to bed watching my fish and certainly does not seem to suffer any adverse effects. The only tank that I can change the light off is right next to my bed, because it is a little bright if I face him while sleeping. It also contains 6 tropical flounders, which are generally nocturnal. I also spend much time in the day watching, because I work from home and I look really relaxing. Funny enough i was not the main problems with algae. I clean the front glass tank at least once a week. The substrate in all tanks is sandy and I give it a stir occasionally groups of fish and algae out. In two of my tanks have Plecos and seem to keep the tank clean.
It will not bother the fish at all, but I'm surprised you did not have major algae problems
