This That and Even More Dribble

Well today, after walking around in the feeling of being thought of as in my 20's, even if only by one person, that dream was shot to hell!!!

My son hit me up about obtaining his licenses this summer ~ surely I'm not old enough to have a child ready to begin leaving my house on his own accord much less DRIVE!!!! NO NO NO !!!! This was asked of me before COFFEE ~ what on earth are my children thinking?????

After getting both kids off to school, going through a parent / teacher conference for Ms. Prissy Princess, I got home and had a full pot of coffee to just think!!!!!

It dawned on me then: it isn't about me getting older that bothers me it is the having to give up control of my eldest child's decisions and basically life. Yeah I can hear the cheap seats roaring with commentary now ~ *glares hateful glare in their directions*. Then I figured out that was only part of it ~ the thoughts of one of my kids on the streets around this area SCARES ME!!!

I know I know accidents happen in small town's also, but in big town's the potential is even greater. I mean my Lord, people here in Texas DO NOT know how to drive!!!!! Yeah even you Kristi you speed demon you!!!

If I had not just recently moved I would swear I'd move back to my cozy little small town and allow him to drive, but me moving again, HELL NO!!!! Not unless I win the lottery :biggrin !!!!

So after I mule the above facts over in my head I reach the decision, I'm not ready to deal with a kid driving yet, and took it off the thought process for now :smile. Well at least until the subject is brought up again by Q15.

Leave to pick up Little Ms. Prissy Princess from school to get announcements of the "big day" of her Preschool graduation.

By the time I make it home, I'm officially feeling OLD!!!!!!!!!! Thank goodness it is "cocktail hour" :biggrin.....so grab a drink at the bar if there is any left after I get done with my self proclaimed pity party :lol.

And Madbull I've got a bone to pick with you ~ tease me and make me wait till Friday and then go off line too boot ~ SHAME ON YOU!!!

IN THE 60'S PEOPLE TOOK ACID TO MAKE THE WORLD LOOK WEIRD. NOW THE WORLD IS WEIRD AND PEOPLE TAKE PROZAC TO MAKE IT LOOK NORMAL!!!

Flattery Will Get You

Almost anywhere :smile.

Well today, flattery, no matter how untrue it was, still made my day :biggrin

I was told that not only did I look like I was in my early 20's but no way did my body look like a mother of two.....okay that type of flattery will get ya places :lol. However, didn't get him anywhere :lol, but he did make my day :smile.

Of course my son about died of embarrassment and my daughter yelled, she does too look like a mommie she is MY MOMMIE!!! Ohhhh who are these children and why are they calling me mom is all I want to know ~ here have an apple or somethin' gezzzz ruin a moment for me *huge pout*.

Other than cleaning floors for the upcoming party and the house and all the domestic goddess chores that I do so well HA!!!!! My life is pretty much the same and boring ~ I think it is time that calgon needs to take me on a really long road trip ~ after I obtain a very good tan and firm up some very flabby body parts ~ and for the record calgon can we leave the kids behind???? Just a last minute request on my part you know :smile.

Hope everyone is having a good week ~ just thought I'd drop in here and type a little bit of dribble before heading off to sleepless wonder ~

Tootles

SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES....NOT GOOD FOR ANYTHING REALLY, HOWEVER, YOU CAN'T HELP BUT SMILE WHEN YOU SEE THEM TUMBLE DOWN THE STAIRS!!!

Ever Just Had ~

Days where you wake up meanier than a snake??????????

I mean after 3 cups of coffee you are still vile towards any man kind???

Well then welcome to my day........

I dreamed about something last night, don't know what it was when I woke up, but when I did wake up for the day ~ I was just down right mean towards any breathing human being or hey for that matter anything breathing in my mist.

I remember what the dream was about, it had to do with friendships, and obviously it had taken a sour turn in life..............ohh wait something I can relate too........

Yet, I guess I know why my mood was so vile all day long, is because there was some truth in this dream. I don't know I don't hold much stock in dreams and the like, but when one makes me think and re think and affects my mood as much as this one did; well, I tend to step back and take stock.

I have always tended to get along better with men than most women. In having that ability I've also managed to obtain many different adjectivies in regards to my real name. But in truth, if I was as that "experienced" when other's thought I was I'd be a happier woman :biggrin.

Yet, my "experience" also doesn't run thin either, via with men or with female friendships. To be honest, the men friendships are much easier and healthier I've learned to keep afloat; okay minus other's hands of influencen involved.

Why am I posting about this??? HELL I don't know other than a question.....

if a woman is married / or a man for that matter / are they then no longer allowed to have "friendships" with the other sex??????????

Have relationships and marriage become such a place that once you choose one for you life you can no longer have the friendships to fullfill oneself??????

I don't believe in that acutally, I believe any relationship is healthy with other's having friends of the oppoiste sex ~ and no I don't mean sexual issues either ~ get your minds out of the gutter gezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *HUMPF*

I guess I'm pissed because I've had one too many hands meldling *who ever said I could spell* in my life and my friendships. I've lost many friendships due to such issues, but I'm luckier than most, I've been able to regain those friendships back in the end.

Do people just not realize that one's character speaks for itself????????? Whatever happened to judging a person by there charachter????????? That is how I like to build my relationships, and only on a few wacked out calls, I haven't missed yet. No matter how far back those ties bind us or what circumstances.

Exuse the spelling or lack there of ~ and exuse my rant ~ I'm just bothered by circumstances and people's "views" and what should or should be going on in my life right now!!!!!!!

Bottom line is I'm HAPPY with my life and my decisions; if you don't like them deal with it!!!!!!!!!! I'm HAPPY in my friends; if you don't like it DEAL WITH IT!!!! I don't care if is someone recent or someone from my past I hide nothing from my husband ~ DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!!

I'm done ranting!!! But if you've read this far, think about it!!!! If you can't be happy with yourself and your life and/or your significant other who CAN you be happy with??? Because yourself is not an option...

Ever Just Had One Of Those Days

Where placing a choke hold on someone or going nothing short of postal on someone or many different individuals could just make your day? :errrr

If so you will so relate to this post, if not, well stop reading NOW ~ :smile

You have been warned ahead of time ~ old James is on a rant!!

For the most part where neighbors are concerned, I'm pretty easy to get along with, if they piss me off, I don't make a fuss gezzz I don't even tell them about it, I just migrate into my own little humble abode and ignore the crap out of them.

However, I have one set of neighbors, I'm half tempted to walk over at 5 something a.m. and ring their damn door bell and state ~ I'm letting my dog out to go potty, I'm not hiding bodies in my backyard YET, but don't press your luck idiots!!!!

My poor black lab is allergic to something in this new house. He has been biting and scratching himself non stop that neither he nor I get any sleep due to his already in placed medical condition of epilepsy. So yeah, I'm a bit ear in tone of his different sounds, whines and the like. Gezzzz, it only took us what a MONTH to move with all the crap we have in this house, yeah, I tend to take notice of different sounds that could cause more clean up for me....for example, the crashing of crystal, porcelain *however you spell it*, electronics *ex: tv, dvd's, stereo, computers *Lord forbid*, etc etc etc........

So tonight after a very enjoyable conversation with one of my many adoptive "mom's" via phone and then transfered over to the internet so I can send her files of her "grandkids"........Bruno decides he really needs to go outside to go potty.........

So I go out with him to have a smoke.....I'm not talking to him I'm just smoking my cig and making sure he gets his business done outside before I let him INSIDE.......

I walk out my back door and look towards the neighbors windows the blinds are closed and down to the window ceil ~ by the time I'm finished with my cig the blinds are pulled up half way and the feeling of you know someone is watching you.

Okay now I'm pissed..............if you want a peep show at least till it is 100 plus heat and I'm trying to get a tan but in the middle of the night I'm going to have clothes on IDIOTS!!!! So what do I do???? *big grin*

I walk towards my sliding glass back door talking to Bruno and say "your backyard is your toilet honey, you should have the same respect of privacy as the idiots whom are looking out there half raised blind by listening to our back door open.....I smile ever so sweetly in my southern charm and flip them off as I walk inside...........their blinds hit the window ceil with a very noticeable "clank".

Thank you my "welcome to the neighborhood" is done. Gawd, I'm a noisy little bitch, however, if I want to know something about someone be it a neighbor, a friend or for that matter a perfect stranger or family member, I just plain out ask......why spy and make my own judgments? When just plain asking curbs the curiosity *and whoever said I could spell with my lowly education?* !!!

Well I've decided they are going to spy one time to many in my backyard ~ one time they are going to think they are watching a dog and myself in the backyard only to find out a real education in life!!!!!

HUMPF yeah baby the bitch has arrived in your neighborhood and just call me your neighbor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And this is only on a good day ~ the postal post is awaiting with PMS ~ see aren't you guys so glad I have no idea how to use a gun :biggrin

I have learned recently, our neighbors of which I'm speaking, home-school their children. Apparently, one of the windows in question of the constant "lookie see" issue in our backyard is one of the children. However, I've learned through other neighbors they have like 4 kids ranging in ages from Little Ms. Prissy's age to Q15.

Congrats to the neighbors, crazy but well congrats on your patients of not only parenting that many children but homeschooling.......HA that is a CNN headline in the making at my house!!!

Any hoot, I've only witness one child of theirs in the "day light hours" as she pushes sticks through the fence to taunt my dogs while they are out trying to "relieve themselves".

All I've got to say to the neighbors is ~ if I'm out there taking care of the plants and flowers while this taunting is going on with my dogs or Little Ms. Prissy Princess, is this, welcome to the real world and a new version of health class as I show you exactly what you thought was an exit only issue now becomes the stick of taunting as an entrance into your body!!! Thank you have a good day!!!

And the most ironic thing of all this ~ these neighbors haven't even seen us throw a party yet :lol ~ ohhhhh we must break in the neighbors!!! I feel a challenge in the mist!!!


EVERYDAY I BEAT MY OWN PREVIOUS RECORD OF CONSECUTIVE DAYS I'VE STAYED ALIVE

I'm Alive And Ranting!!!

First before I begin, Dr. D, my handsome boxer doctor over there in Jamacia :kisses, forgive me ahead of time!!!

But DOCTOR'S PISS ME OFF!!!!! I've only in passing posted about me and my time with the doctor's of late. It began before the holidays certain health issues that even my hard head couldn't ignore to drive me into the doctor's office. Me being such the patient individual that I am :angdev I assumed a few test would have to be run, I'd be given a verdict and treatment and I could then continue in my every so loving attitude of life moving forward :biggrin.

In case you don't know me; well you just missed a great deal of sarcasm going on in that paragraph above!!!! Anyhoot, remember I said I began this journey of doctor's BEFORE the holidays!!! Holidays meaning before THANKSGIVING!!!

We are now in late APRIL MANY doctor's later and not a ONE of them eye candy either HUMPF!!!! Only to find out they aren't sure what is wrong and causing my problems other than I have major nerve damage somewhere in my body affecting my right side.

Well hell, I'm blonde and KNEW THAT MUCH :brick, hense why one of the reasons I began this journey of stupidity to begin with :errrr !!! So we are now back to treating symptoms with medication, :lol this should be good since I don't do med's, why do they think I don't take the pill :bite !!

But other than that drama in my life everything else is going okay!! We are FINALLY done unpacking boxes and things put up in this house ~ I swear to goodness I didn't think I'd ever see the last box leave this house. Bruno, our black lab, has finally figured out how to climb up and down the stairs and claimed our spare bedroom as his own now. Little Ms Prissy Princess is bitcher than ever ~ go figure where she gets that it must be from my hubby's side of the family since I'm so demore and sweet all the time you know:heart :biggrin. Q15 is thriving in JV baseball and school and just found out last week he will be bumped up to Varsity :Woot !!!

I think that pretty much covers all the news on the home front so I will turn everyone back over to their normal reading and ranting in life, but hey if you feel the urge, by all means leave a message for me sometimes you guys even shock me on who stops by :smile.

Tootles everyone!!! But before I leave I will leave you with some items of what one does NOT want to hear when they regain consciousness:

1. I've never seen one of those before, quick pack it in ice.

2. It's great that some people like this are willing to donate their vital
organs.

3. Hey Charlie, unzip the bag on that one, he's still kicking.

4. Blink once for yes.

5. What? Who's in the other bed? Actually, that's also you.

6. Hand it to me. Maybe they can sew it back on him.

7. Do you think he can hear us?

8. I didn't even know one could bend that way, let alone both.

9. I'm sorry, but we were only able to thaw your head.

10. Hold still, we've almost pried its jaws open

:biggrin
