Just = only

Wanna = want to

Settle down = get married, buy a house, live a quiet life

Gaggle = group (of people)

Rug rats = children before school age

Right now = at the present moment

Mace = An irritant chemical used in an aerosol to disable attackers

Enjoy = take pleasure

Mace has a number of meanings.  

- it's a type of weapon.
- it's similar to pepperspray, as Gail has said.
- and it's also a spice, but never mind
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/mace

The line of dialogue, as it's written, means she likes to use this weapon.  If she wanted to talk about the pepperspray, the line should read, "I have *some* mace ...."

Honestly, the meaning is not clear to me.
