Will Things Start Looking Up?
Do you feel like you’re doing all the right things as a parent and your kids still screw up? I feel like a failure…and it made me cry.
I’m here for them, I don’t sit in the bars or do alot of socializing outside the home, I teach them right from wrong and explain the consequnces and it just breezes right through their simple little minds.
I know they need to learn from their mistakes, but some things are so STUPID!
First, I do love my boys very much and I want them to be good citizens and contribute to society. However… I do not like kids…I don’t have much patience for them and sometimes wonder why God gave them to me.
D & J were so strong for me when their dad died and brought me back to reality when I was having a bad day and I love having them around. I’m beginning to think that maybe I need some counseling. I was hoping that bloggin would help, but I’m not sure it is.
I’m so thankful for JD and his patience. He was sent to me by God and I want him in my life forever. A couple weeks ago I was babbling about my day, and JD was focused on a football game and I told him I’d quit rambling on and he said he’d listen to me forever. It was a special moment for me. It was the first time forever was said…even though we talked about marriage. Crazy thought, huh?
Well, tomorrow is another day.
I went to the gym today and they got these cool bikes where you’re like in a video game and keep your scores, etc.
I also worked in a different department these past few days.
I’m driving a loaner vehicle, cus some old fart in a truck backed into my car and it needs to get fixed. I don’t have a window and my door doesn’t work. The Ford I’m using could fit into the truck of my Chrysler. What a change! It’s like driving a go-cart.
Anyhow…
Thank God For All You Have and realize that is How It Is.

Stressing!
I absolutely hate times like these!
Where do I start?
First, I’m having a hard time getting all the financial stuff figured out for my son to go school and it makes me feel so stupid! But there just aren’t enough options to choose from or not what I’m looking for. So I called the school and said I’m showing up tomorrow…I need help!
My younger son got his schedule for school and we need to make some changes. He took summer school classes and finished a class that is on his current schedule. That’s minor.
I have a couple friends that I need to take a break from. One always talks to you like you don’t “get it” and she could’ve ended the story 2 paragraphs ago. She’s soooo animated too when she talks. Actually I hadn’t talked or seen her in a couple months, then I did twice this past week and…I don’t know what to say. The other friend is having problems w/ her daughter. Or the other way around. The daughter is sick of her mom and hasn’t talked to her in a month. The daughter is my Godchild so I had her over last evening to find out what’s going on and I don’t blame her for being pissed. I did, however, suggest that since she’s 18 she should face it and at least leave a message on her mom’s cell during work and let her know how she feels. The mom is on vacation next week and wants to take her daughter school shopping. I’m not so sure that’s going to happen. This is a long story w/ lots of details and it’s all added into whatever else is going on. Both of them know that I am the middle person and will be talking to the other one about what was said.
I also had to make a hard decision regarding helping someone out finacially and there’s a little tension in the air. I have to take care of myself.
I got news that an uncle-in-law passed away. He was about 90 and came across as being ornery, but was really a nice guy. He reminded me of the Grinch when he smiled.
On a high note, I’ve been getting to the gym. I went for a motorcycle ride on Sunday. Work is going okay and I had so much on my mind that Bonnie didn’t even get on my nerves.
The AVON lady did though. She comes in the lunch room once a month during lunch break and stinks it up w/ half a bottle of perfume. How in the hell is anyone suppose to eat? I have allergies and perfume is one thing that should be under the clean air act. I’d rather smell a cigarette.
I also think that when you order a magazine subscription, you should be able to get yours w/o the perfume samples.
Time for bed.
