That's All She Wrote

It's so hard to break up sometimes. It's tough to deviate from your comfort zone and start over. But you deserve to be with someone who treats you right. Don't ever settle for anything less than that. Take what you've learned from this relationship and make the next one better. Thinking of you Meranda (even though that's not your real name, LOL)

There was a kid that would come and visit his Grandparents a few doors down from me and I just instantly did not care for this kid. The kids the my children play with have all grown up together since around the age of 3 and all seem to act/behave similar to one another. I don't allow certain language and behavior here at my house (like Ducky, my house is the main hub ALL the DANG time) This kid was like "fast" or something, always trying to be cool, putting the other kids down, swearing, making sexual harassment type comments to the girls. I shut his visits down real fast.

Good one Martin.

Awwwww, I'm really sorry Kristy. This is tough news I know. And I also know it's hard to stay positive at a time like this, but I know you're grateful that you're employed. So many other's aren't. You probably don't want to hear that right now, but I'm trying to help so you don't get too down and so you don't ever give up.

Waiting in line for wine? Who knew?
Enjoy friend.

Dang girl, you should be ecstatic with all you've accomplished. What a great feeling heh?

Sorry Fredo that your plans have to change after all these years. I'm glad you and Mike have each other. Some will be alone.

Excellent advice.

I like Fredo's point. There are a lot of over indulgent parents who give their kids everything. But yeah... there is definitely a lot more benefits to kids these days which also brings on the chances for lots more harm.
That was a great post!

I laughed out loud! Good one!!!!!

Oh Man! Can't believe you did that but boy it's times that those that you truly learn to think before you speak (for the next time you're about to put your foot in your mouth )

I think it's called "routine" and we all fall prey to it at times. Though, I think some folks enjoy their routines and feel anxious when it is disrupted. I like balance and a little "shake up" in my daily routines. Keeps me awake ya know?

Very good to know this. I gave a gift card to someone last year and the code was stolen and used on line making my gift "useless". I'm sticking to cash-o-la this year

I wonder if eliminating mail on Saturdays would be a good idea?? And getting rid of junk mail once and for all... surely that would help

I think it's great that you are trying so hard to find the silver lining. It really isn't easy sometimes and we all have our rough days. Keeping a positive outlook will lead you in the right direction.
