Speaking of drum circles....there is one tonight at one of our beaches here.....it's every Sunday at sunset....I really should take my drum and go!

Since I'm not good at giving advice, I'm trying to post a cute pic for everyone but my computer is being a brat.

I'm so glad you all are here!

Feeling like I'm unraveling right now. My kids really upset me and I blew up at them. I need to breath

I was upstairs cleaning and had told my oldest daughter to watch the other 2 they were were outside and told her they cannot be alon and she knows that. So I come downstairs and she is insid playing the Xbox and there is some strange kid in my house that the kids just met a few weeks ago. She put her shoe in the door holding it in and let our 4 month old kitten out. I went outside to look for home and my son had wood knives a saw and some other tools out like he was playing wood shop. Yeah so this all took place within like 10-15 mins. They know better this isn't anything new. now they are playing like nothing ever even happened. I just don't know what to do anymore they won't listen and forget 2 mins later that they were in trouble.
Sorry needed to vent sooo bad I really want to drink right now. I'm not feeling as positive as I was this morning and feel like I'm about to derail

Hey Keets! Wow, that sucks! Sorry, I don't know about raising or disciplining kids (only that I would never have the patience to do so,....so kudos to you!) As my Dad says, "Kids are a pain in the ass!"

Hey Keets!! Sounds like quite an afternoon at your house! Take some deep breaths and think it through....drinking would not improve the situation....in fact it would make it 100% worse!! Keep posting here and stay close!! Hugs!!

This, Keets. I don't have children so have no advice to offer. I'll stick with the experts like Sam who do.

OK, so there are no actual experts. You do the best you can and I'm sure your children and Keets's will turn out just fine.

I can only imagine how mad my parents were at me while I was growing up. Actually, I let my brother bear the brunt of that while still being difficult. Regardless, I've no doubt you know what's best and try to instill that. At some point children must spread their wings and make their own decisions. Seems yours are at that point or very close. Easy for me to say, of course.

I'm bored with my time off too Sam. If a few days now drives me nutty, I might completely lose it after surgery. I'm already thinking of bailing on it after getting the annoying work pack for time off. I won't though. I think, even though I have tomorrow off, I'll go in and work off the clock.
