alot of drama in my life, yet I am able to disconnect from it and not attatch (negative) emotions. Am I numb? what am I? I have 2 homeless sons right now, yet I myself have a roof over my head ..... and won't allow them to come home, so to say tough love.
there is a question for me as to what is the right thing to do,
my husband and I have been helping them along for more than 2 years now, it APPEARS that they lack the ability to be productive when they hve a cushion to fall back on or even to take care of their life, issues, bills and so on.
one of my sons seems to be headed for jail, I hope, and I pray ... that isn't true, but my gut feeling is that it is coming. heart wrenching is what that is. time will tell.
please note that I have 5 kids, 4 sons and one daughter.
2 kids under age. well kind of, my daughter will be 18 come may 31rst.
she doesn't have a job, ... because she refuses to work fast food, she graduated late dec of 2007, she is sleeping right now, and just like every young person ... she has her own ideas of life, lets call it young and dumb.
who knows what will become of her in 6 months, maybe she will turn her life arround? after all she did graduate early!
my love and I didn't celebrate v-day, I wasn't in the mood and he didn't have an issue with that, in fact instead of getting out and dealing w/ traffic, at 3pm we layed down together snuggled and fell asleep untill just after 8pm, for which we then got up and cooked dinner , fish/tolapia .... it was awesome, we had dinner with the 2 kids that are still at home, Amber & Casey. our dinner consist of tolapia, white rice, steam broc, grapes, & mushrooms, I used pepper pasted and romane lettuce to make rice boats, I love them!
I have a crown that chipped about 2 months ago, it is giving me heck. very sensative, however it was giving me heck ever since it has been done which was aug 2006.
I'm ignoring it for now, yet it seems to be on it's way to absessing. hard to imagine a root canal/dead tooth having the power to absess AGAIN.
this evening .... stir fry is planned, I have snow peas-mushrooms- bamboo shoots- water chessnuts - baby corn and so on, he wants to use chicken. I don't care I'm easy. yes folks I married a cook, he even cleans, does laundry, in fact he mops the garage floor! more power to him!
anyway just rambling
he wants to go to AA tonight, work out in the GYM, go across town and finish his dry wall project ..... not to mention dinner .... and so on ... thank God for prozac! come to think of it, thank God for all things in life ... amen

I love your attitude and your ability to put things into perspective.
And - I like the sounds of the meals you prepare!
Hubby sounds not bad either!Posted 02-15-2008 at 10:25 AM by Rowan
- Sounds like you just LOVE you some vittles. That's cool. Hope yer smothering that healthy crap with butter...I LOVE BUTTER!
As far as yer kiddies....life is hard and there are not allot of good low paying jobs. So...if yer gonna give 'em any money...se about a trade school. Yer little girl could do hair and the two sons could fix cars. TWO THINGS THAT NEVER GO OUT OF ECONOMICAL FASHION! I get shafted every time I bring my car in or have to get my roots touched up. AND I TIP WELL.
How are you? Miss taking care of all dem kidz?
It's hard out there to stay SOBER and life is gonna happen...so take it one day at a time.Posted 04-21-2008 at 03:18 PM by lilbit
