Oh man, just watched his doc again- annnd - broke my heart again.
A prison sentence yeah- but 80 years then on death row?
I do like him I admit! A free spirit- or used to be I guess.

Melina, good luck on the menu/recipe development. It sounds as if you've had a productive day.

Sao, happy Wednesday! You must be up for work as we late stragglers are heading to bed. I'm in bed, trying to relax.

We also walked into a showroom for vintage American cars. They were pretty awesome. Fun to see. We were just going to look in the window but my kids just ran inside to see so we followed them in.

Time for bed. Hopefully the one cat returns. She was a little kooky. Good night all!

Interesting, watching his doc reminded me of so much.
I've been so lazy writing and now I feel guilty.
He used to tell me death row stories- it was so weird for him ( and me) because he's not actually going to be executed- they just keep him there because he's so clever- they can't risk him escaping.

I felt so bad for him living there- one by one his friends being executed- watching it it :/
He used to tell me who went quietly and who fought.
I have sent him travel pictures; and he tells me he passes them around death row for everyone to look at, since they never leave their cells.
He told me they all said thank you so much- that it made them feel human.

Wow debbie downer post
I really don't know how I feel about it.

Shouldn't have brought all of that up- too late to delete.
Now I've upset myself.

Moving on... Won't bring it up again.

Tetra: my mother will drive me to an institution as well.
( sorry men)
She's here at my house- I accidentally left my box of tampons on my table....
She hid them- I asked where they were- she told me she put them under the sink in the bathroom where no body can see them- my brother doesn't need to see that.
Good job mom..... Why is it that I'm ****** up?!

She brought me up to be ashamed of existing- men always come first- you should defer and make them comfortable..... Just the fact that she took my tampons and hid them says it all.

I should just go to bed instead of getting furious.

I've fought her on this for years.
I'm actually clenching my teeth as I write this.

Good morning!
I'll watch the documentary today, Jen. I was asleep by the time you posted it last night.

Nice pictures, Ruby. Glad you had a nice trip.

Good morning everyone.

I had to laugh about your mom hiding your tampons Jen. What does she think of all the feminine product commercials on TV?

Beautiful pictures Ruby.

Have a great day!

Morning y'all!

Jen...I've learned that moms do the best they can and sometimes screw up in the process because they're human. Most don't intentionally try and do harm. I've had to forgive my mom for a lot and realize she did the best she could with what she had at the time. That being said...I get crabby when anyone touches my tampons! Xo

Another day another dollar. Sometimes I feel like a robot in a rut. Oh well...at least having a rut makes it easy to decide what to do!

The rut does make it easier to decide what to do Brynn.

Wish I could have slept in but between kids and cats I'm up.

Back in 2003 I was deployed to Prince Sultan Airbase in Saudi Arabia. When I reported in they assign me a room. The airman gave me a key and said I'd be sharing a room with Major Robin Shmotz. I said, "Robin? sounds like a female." The airman assured me it was a male.

I went to the room (still suspicious about Robin) and no one was there. It was tidy, but some guys are tidy. There was a pair of running shoes that looked rather smallish, but maybe Robin was a small fellow. Then I thought to myself, you've been married for more than a decade, you know what to look for. So I went to the bathroom and looked under the sink, and there they were.

I went back to the front desk and told the airman I was sure Robin was a woman. He asked me if I was sure and I said, "It doesn't matter, my wife won't let me share a room with a man that uses tampons." The flustered airman assigned me new quarters toot sweet.
