Once upon a time, a Kid Rock show in Detroit was something all my people wanted to go to. It was the cool thing to do, the cool place to be, a good time for all. Now my mom wants to go, my aunt calls for tickets, and my teachers from High School frequent the shows. Once upon a time, he was a devil without a cause, now he is all religous during his shows, making me feel as if he is a zealot without a cause. The lyrics and content used to be on the edge, its what made him who he is, now its pathetic and same ole same ole. Why do I hold on?
I wont, hun, dont worry. Its a good aura in this thread.
No shit!!! Hahahaha
I miss the seasons too. Although not the snow much. I make plans to go up north in the Fall, that's my favorite season. Halloween when the leaves have turned colors and before it gets unbearably cold. I love the smell in the cool air but not cold in Fall. The smell of fire places burning. *sigh*
Summer never end s here in Florida. I so miss the change of the seasons and I love a white christmas and the budding spring. Some Day. Peace!
What's Up?
Micki, don't you dare!!
It'll just ruin Angie's blog and our bonding moment, hahahaha.
Didn't think my blog today would get this much attention. I'm not sure if its good or bad...I think everyone has some good advice because of the things each of us has gone through. I appreciate hearing all your stories too! Got a question...whose not here? Might as well finish what has been started????
If I said who... I would be starting trouble, now wouldnt I?
whos not here?
tee hee.... not trying to start trouble. No... really I'm not. Just stating the obvious.
Haha, I love it when someone posts what I was thinking but chose not to say in an effort NOT to start trouble. It's wrong I know but I can't help it.
Thats cuz the ones that start it arent here. BFG
Oh, God no!!
Bouncy boobies are welcomed though. :D
On the sunny side....at least we have not started bitchin at each other yet! haha
I could bring the bouncy balls back out if somebody gets out of line! lol

this is the most depressing topic that ive come across so far
Hahaha, I don't believe the idea of an individuals blog is to make any one person happy. You can always start your own more cheerful topic. Can't promise you it will stay on topic though, LOL
I would have to say that looking back the only regret I have is not perusing my college education sooner, other than that Shady is right if you look back and see everything that has gone on in your lives it is what made you what you are today, and I like to think that for the majority of us it made us stronger, smarter women.
this is the most depressing topic that ive come across so far
LOL @ disclaimer. Its very true. My boys think they are abused to have to mow the lawn and stack wood. They want more $$$ everytime. I wont give in by the hour. Its by the job only, otherwise they turn into "stateworkers". Tim has to do his own laundry cuz he kept putting back clean clothes into the dirty.
When my oldest was here he was investigated by the state PD on ... a long story. I really by then couldn't totally take his word on anything. My husband...Jays nemisis so he thought... was LIVID with me for letting the state execute a search warrant on our property. DEAN got a lawyer immediately for Jay. age 17 is adult in criminal cases.
*** It was three of them foolishly talking about disabling the heating system at the HS and over heard by another classmate. Disabling was one thing. ha ha no school for a day or 2. The other kid (the one at County now awaiting rape trial) no ....He wanted to make a poisonous gas in the heating system. Jay knew nothing of this til the pd told him. Then he did the right thing and told them everything he knew***
The other kids mother was livid that the state was picking on her boy. How dare Jay talk, and how dare #3 talk. Jay had no deal or immunity on the table for him. Nothing. He did right and was willing to take responsibility for his part (finding our saws-all). He declined counsel, too. When he was told about the concoction of chemicals his buddy was going to put in the system.... he bawled like a baby at the thought of his school mates being hurt like that. He couldnt believe his so called friend would lead him into "something so horrible".***
I do believe because with his past mistakes, he has well learned that mom and dad arent going to cover for him...ever. That from breaking a toy to breaking the law, there are consequences. I will always be proud that thru all that he's never pointed the blame onto others, but for only a minute. In the end he's all stand up & face it.
It astounds me that ki
Hahaha, Kaye, I love that word.

absofuckinlutely!
***DISCLAIMER***
^^^^That was a general statement based on the majority^^^^
Oh, I hate the 'let's do lunch' and the 'we'll touch base' bunch.
Your right Micki, my youngest is far less mature then My oldest was at her age. It depends on the child.
The biggest problems kids are facing is being spoiled, sheltered and coddled. The don't learn self respect or respect for others. They don't learn how to take responsibilty. They don't learn morals and standards anymore. It's a damn shame. Parents are too busy and teachers are too lazy. Not to mention both parents and teachers are limited by ridiculous laws, children have too many rights and they know how to use the system and just how far they can push it.
What gets me: Ppl who cant just say it out right. You know like at the soccer park. The moms who give off like their life is so perfect and have perfect kids. The ones who deny anything off-color is going on. I find them so pathetic. The kind of parents that say when the cops call telling them their kid is in trouble, "why do you have to pick on my baby" gimme a break! When Cheif Smitty would call me I would say "ok....what did he do now? is any one hurt? are there property damages?" Usually it was just a lil update that Jay was hanging around with known undesirables with records. It was more of a heads up call. which I sooo appreciated.
another peeve: these women who used to be even more wild than I. How they try to hide it with their now perfect lives. whats wrong with your kids knowing you used to party hard. Whats wrong with your kids enjoying stories from the "old gravel pits" Dont these kids put 2&2 together. How do they think we know where to find the lil bastards when they miss curfew...duh. what ? you dont want them to know what a hypocrite you are? they already know.
The "lets do lunch"-ers. Say things they never intend on doing. they just say it cuz it sounds good. the one who would never voice the words "well... I dont agree". They are useless fuckers. I really adore the moms/dads who are truly organized and truly right out there. The ones who arent afraid to say "thats fine for your kid...he can handle it, but I dont feel mine can yet, or rather I cant handle mine doing/watching/playing that" You know how "tweens" vary so much in their maturity.
I am just really lucky with Tim. He's a slob but he's really great at being courteous and responsible. He's learned what NOT to do from his older brother's doings. and the baby, I only worry about his OVER acheiving need. I dont want him with an ulcer at age ten. I've seen alot of good changes in my stepson this summer. He is more independent thinking now instead of worrying about his
Thanks, it took me many years to realize it. It's my own, not a quote I dug up or a fortune cookie I came across.
Geez, I just re read some of this. Hahahaha, It's been one of those 'reflecting' days.
Ok ladies, that'll be $150 for each of you....CASH. I don't take insurance, hahahahaha.
'Someone or something may be responsible for how your feeling but only you are responsible for how you react to those feelings' Don't wallow, don't blame, don't regret.
I love it!
HAHAHAHA
I've had strech marks since I was 21 and had my first child. DEAL WITH IT!!!
I'm glad it's better and your giving yourself some credit. You can only do your best with whatever you have to work with and whatever you do, don't let what other people expect of you influence your choices. Make sure your accomplishments and the 'important things' are truley what's in your heart. Your head and your heart mind find more to agree on.
I tell my kids all the time (because they tend to hang onto the shit and it makes them miserable) 'Someone or something may be responsible for how your feeling but only you are responsible for how you react to those feelings' Don't wallow, don't blame, don't regret.
Be grateful you still have that oppotunity, they will leave you one day. Nothing hurts more then when your kids don't need you anymore don't want to need you anymore. Teenagers suck!!
They only call me now when they need money or something is going wrong in their lives. They rarely remember to tell me the good stuff anymore because they don't need help with that.
My life's struggles are pretty big too Angel but I make the adjustments necessary for me and move on. I feel the pain and heartache and I experience the fear but i don't hold onto it because if I did I wouldn't be able to really feel good stuff the way it's meant to be.
Well Angel.... If I knew it was going to end tomorrow, I would probably change a few things immediatley that I plan on doing in the not so distant future. I am doing certain things in my life for others and out of convenience. BUT, knowing this, I have given myself a time limit.
