    NowWhat
    Never say never! :) You don't know what life has in store for you!

    I HAVE to shop today. If I don't, my kid is going to school barefooted. But, no, she doesn't have to have 5 pairs of shoes. What can I say, I like her to look cute. :)

    Nowwhat, good luck with the school shopping, it can be tedious! The first day went very well for both of the kids so that made me feel good.
    HEy good morning to you STart!! I miss you. IT feels like I haven't talked to you in forever..
    Today is Myke's birthday, my friend who died on April 21st. Four months before he turned 23. I celebrate his life today, the person he was, and the person I am aspiring to be after knowing him. Happy Birthday Mykey!! I sure do miss you and I hope you see the love all around you from everyone who knew you. YOu are a special soul and a kindred spirit and I am thankful to have known you, as brief as it was, it was life changing. YOu are still with me in my heart and in my memories...
    Good Morning everyone, hope you have a great day!!

    Aww, Shattered, so sweet to honor him like that. It has only been four months? Wow, I feel like I have known you forever! Hope you are doing well, sounds like you are.. the kiddos too.
    I am irritated with the boys' mom, I will go there a little later. I need more time. Hugs, Start

    Ok I want to hear what is up with that! Yes, it does feel like I have known you for a lifetime. Maybe because you have been there for me for so much. Thank you for that, you have helped me tremendously to be able to come to work without crying or feeling like driving right off the road. Did you get my email? I believe it is so true.
    Are you getting ready for school? I hope everything is going good for you, besides the boys' mom.
    Well it is getting ready to pour here. I feel so bad for all of those people that got hit by the hurricane. The flooding in the midwest looked awful too. Boy, Mother Nature is talking but we sure ain't listening!

    Just the fact that she has night time and daytime daycare is really affecting the boys. Night time is for when she works nights and days are for when she needs to sleep. I know for a fact that she has been bringing the boys here everyday and she has been bringing the boys there every night... she does not work 24 hours a day. She had her girlfriend over this wickend and was off from Thursday night to Monday night, the boys were still going to night care... That totally shows the boys that her girlfriend is more important to her than them. They have talked about it and I am furious!! I will be talking with her today about all of this. Besides the fact that DHS will not tolerate it, neither will I. She has no sense of priorities... I just know this is not going to be good. Poor babes

    Sorry to hear about things that are going on. I know that everything will work out the best for the boys. Do not blame you for being mad and like you said DHS will not tolerate it.

    Hello to everybody else. I know I have not been here lately. Just busy with the family and work. Hope you are all doing fine and I will write more in a bit.

    I see you have my apologies for hearing about that tragedy

    Yet I too understand what it is I have lost all people dear to me
    I hope you shall not cry

    Not crying is not to be ruthless and not care

    No one ever said you shall never have a wife nor children Cal

    Be glad in life find your happiness regardless if you let your children out to the world or not

    I have gotten to a new school with a wonder due to my bad grades from the first semester it was a unbalanced situation

    Now your asking for it!
    (hugs gaia)
    You can never have too many hugs :P
    By the way nowwhat, I do say never, seeing as how
    1# I would never want to bring a kid into the world if I wasn't married
    2# I would never want to tie another person to a horrible person like me by marrying them, they could do so much better.
    Hugs to everyone, you are a wonderful bunch :)

    I want to see some color and definitely some cool shoes... Come on sweet, mix it up a bit... You want me to go with you? I am the bargain shopper of the world! And I have good taste. At least that is what I think.
    Thanks guys, I think we got some stuff worked out through DHS and another week she will be on days, so it would have all changed again for the boys... crazy! She isn't a bad person, and we talked a bit yesterday, I know she has good excuses for the things she does, but I would like to see her take more responsibility for the things she does. Any way, who am I? Her mother? LOL
    Cal, I would marry you if I could. You are too kind and sweet...
    My husband has taught me some very important things about babies and parents... They have us for a reason, we are not to let them get away... It really does surprise me when people just have babies and decide a year or whatever down the road that they are not happy. Upsets me, I feel unhappy sometimes, I just keep moving on. I am sure you saw in my posts around here that I have my own problems, but those dang problems, well, they make a person and relationship stronger. OMGosh, am I talking out of my A-hole... I will stop. I hope you get the point. (No relationship is ALWAYS good)
    Gaia, one (hug) more sweet... mmmmmm that was a good one. I think you made me fart!

    YOu are so crazy and so sweet Start. I too feel like marrying Cal!! What a doll. He really is a good person. It makes me sad to think he doesn't see himself that way.
    Cal, you are a truly unique and beautiful person, you have so much to offer. PLease look in the mirror and find a way to see something good within yourself. You are the only one who can change that image and open your heart to love. Everyone is worth loving. Yes it is a scary world and I wasn't worthy, or didn't feel worthy of having my own kids, until I had them. They renewed my faith in things that are good and in God and in myself. The most important thing is to learn to love yourself, otherwise you really can't be close to anyone, including God. I have faith in you and I believe you will find love and have a family. ONe day.
    GAia, you are showing your silly side and I like it, OK HUGS FROM ME TOO so feel extra squished today.

    JOe and Proud, hope all is well. Missing you lots.

    Start, I hope everything works out for the boys I really do. I am glad you are in such a good mood today, I would like a hug, minus the farts please LOL LOL

    I love you all!!

    No don't go, I had to get a thingy started for Maxy... I have to tell you, there are no extra kids coming, my hubby is at work, Grady promised he would help with a few errands, and I am going to try to get a pair of pants and a few shirts... If I go out, they recognize me cause I wear the same thing... My kids on the other hand, well they are might cool.
    Anyway, how are you SHATTERED? You doing OK, working, sending kids to school, getting laundry done? LOL, I am tired, and will be giving myself another hour to relax then get up. Love you. Start
  • Aug 22, 2007, 08:02 AM
    shatteredsoul
    I am doing fine, kids are good, work is work and laundry is well, there. I am trying to do more but there is just not enough time in the day sometimes!! I will do a few loads as soon as I get home, a lot of sheets and blankets to wash. I am sure you will be busy the next few days getting everyone ready for school. I am sure Grady will be a big help. I thnk maybe you deserve a few new things to wear, you bust your a$$ everyday!! I am glad you are relaxing, I don't think I have ever heard you use that word but that is definitely a good thing!! Now, I need to refill my coffee cup!
    I am here, if you want to keep chatting, otay?

    Oh, you came back, I thought I hurt your feelings so I called you... I love you Shattered, you have been a good friend... my humor come out and I can't stop!
    I can't imagine working and taking care of my home, I am proud of you. I think about the day I go back to work, and OMGosh, it just isn't going to be like it is now, I will never want a clean house again!
  • Aug 22, 2007, 08:21 AM
    shatteredsoul
    YOu will do fine like you always do. You find a way and you manage. I think it is harder to stay home in some ways. I feel like I am more productive at work and yet I don't budget my time wisely when I am home. To be honest, sometimes I am just lazy. YOU could never be lazy. Don't worry you didn't hurt my feelings, I just figured you couldn't talk. YOu have never been intentionally hurtful, it isn't in your nature. If my feelings get hurt than that is my problem, not yours. I always see the good in you and I am proud of who you are. You have opened my eyes to a few things and shown me how to be different. Thanks for that.

    YOur friendship is more priceless than gold or diamonds. Yes, firmbeliever, she does need to spend some money and time on HERSELF only. This allows you to feel recharged and happy, you deserve that. Yes, we have helped each other. I know I can be emotionally sensitive and maybe even immature, but I am trying to toughen up and take things with more stride. You have helped with that, immensely.
    Firm, thanks for all your kind words, support and interesting threads. I enjoy being a part of all of it. I hope too, that I find the peace my soul is searching for. I never thought about it that way, but that is exactly right.
    Start, That kid is a keeper! What a thoughtful thing to do. Grady is a special kid, for sure. I wonder where he gets that from.. hmmmm lol
  • Aug 22, 2007, 08:34 AM
    startover22
    Aww, except the fact that he can trip you when you walk by and he is so tough, it is hard for me to take him down anymore. I have resorted to biting and tickling! LOL
    Yes, shattered, we are here to help you get along. I think you are a very strong woman, so keep your chin up and have a cup of coffee, I love it when you are on caffiene. It cracks me up!
  • Aug 22, 2007, 08:38 AM

    Yes I sound like I am on crack as well!! LOL LOL I think its funny to trip your mom, the thought of him taking you down is hysterical!! All in good fun. OHHH I don't want Bryce to get that big because he will be the jokester that likes to see me fall. LOL

    Kids, they are just the darndest things aren't they? They can make you laugh over nothing. SOmetimes I wish I still was one, well I am on the inside and that counts

    Ya, I knew the day would come when I couldn't take him. I still can, I just don't REALLY want to hurt him.

    Morning Start,
    Grady's a good one... he is a sweetheart, you wait until he grows up, I have a feeling he may be the one who will keep you safe as you gracefully age...

    Hey Shattered,
    You deserve everything I said, though I don't know you I have read many of your threads and seen you change and grow in subtle ways.
    Would love to chat sometime whenever you are up to it...
    Ask Start I am a real chatterbox...

    WE will get along tremendously because I have the gift of gab as well, as Start!! Especially on caffeine. I would love to chat anytime and your insight is very important to me. Sometimes an objective point of view helps clarify things and anything you have discovered or seen along the way, is truly beneficial to me. Thanks for being interested in my thoughts, sometimes I feel like I can bulldoze over people with my thoughts, but I try to be fair and objective. NOt everyone wants to hear them but hey that is what we are here on this site for right? I appreciate your interest, I feel so special! LOL
    STart, I agree with Firm, I think you will always be able to count on him. You are very blessed. You kind of make me want to have more!! KINDA> But I won't!! LOL

    Hello everyone,

    I hardly watch this show, today I did. Hunny, I am killing the kids. I think parents should be in better control of their children. Feeding children junk food, over feeding them everyday and even their daughter gets sick all the time from over eating, all take out food and no healthy food or exercise. I think that is so sick. I think more healthy food and hardly no junk food is better. I know you could live longer when you watch what you eat.

    What do you all think about that? ;)
