Well enjoy God knows I did ~ and still waiting to have them or at least one come shall we say "motivate" me

EVERYTIME I FIND MR. RIGHT, MY HUSBAND SCARES HIM AWAY

jamie_behind.jpg

Yeah I know you think I'm going to do a very educational post here, well you'll be sadly disappointed, I'm talking differences in "corsets". Yeah people you know the one's...in the 1800's before boob jobs and wonder bra's gave the women more cleavage only because the women couldn't breath in those damn things and still can't, yet the greatest things, which obviously they are made by men ~ the underwear, if that is what you call them is no longer attached......:smile

Just little dangly things for the thigh highs for those wonderful "California Fuck *oppsss did I say that* Me Heels............

Anyhoot, I recently purchased one of those "to die for" corsets.....black with baby royal blue stripes ~ and for the record NO PHOTO'S available so don't ask........:biggrin. It took me forever to finally get in the damn thing, latch it for a lack of a better word, strap it up, get the thigh highs attached firmly to the correct place and noticed if I had to wear one of these things on a regular basis boob jobs wouldn't be in question.......damn MAJOR cleavage!!!

Yet, made me wonder back in time to when women actually wore these on a regular basis.......OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Panties sewn in and the boobs safely tied away for only drooling purposes for men...

Can you picture it back then, walking in with corset across your shoulder, parents under candle lite still seeing you are "unmade". They ask, "What happened"? You answer "Ahhh my corset exploded had no choice but to remove it dad" HA yeah I can so see my dad buying into that one!!!!! Personally, I think the whole satisfied look on one's face would be the first give away, don't you.......I mean think about YOU CAN FINALLY BREATH AND GOT LAID who wouldn't glow after that one!!!!

Now in the 20th Century at least, the women took over in making these things, mind you not much more comfortable, but easier access to the ummm "important parts of the body" that the skirt can come up and HELLO access approved.....in a matter of speaking :lol and drooling became from the waist down.

The corset that I purchased is what has driven me to the gym avenue in life.....God I hate gravity with age issue.....everything seems to sag......and harder to push inside a tightly woven corset as well.....breathing seems to be a part of nature that is required so therefore, I'd really love to wear this high dollar item in something other than "the bedroom" but being able to eat and breath is a high requirement with me. :smile

A point to this post........*ummmm NONE*......except this.......got me thinking, I need to purchase one of those corsets with the bloomers attached for Ms. Prissy and lock her in one until ummm age 40 sounds good ~ better than a chasity belt ~ because if she ever walked in my house from a date with corset in hand, the poor sap that braved removing it would well be dead!!!! There is a thought for birth control as well as lots of surveillance equipment around the house with alarms screaming "Prissy is out of the House Prissy Is Out of the House". Did I also mention cameras date and time stamped are also being considered? :lol

HAVING KIDS ONLY GIVES MORE IDEAS TO MAKE THEIR LIVES HELL MORE THAN YOUR PARENTS DID TO US AS CHILDREN ~ WE HAVE THE EQUIPMENT TO ACCOMMODATE

jamie_blinds.gif

However, maybe will give some food for thought.......

Tonight has been a very. ummmm, informative and enlightening nite, to say the least!!! And also since it is officially midnight means I'm making another day's post so don't feel like I'm tearing up the blog world three times in "one day". :smile But God knows I know my phone will be ringing early in the am after this post is read by some :lol.

I have a lot of topics running through my wee small blonde head ~ but after reading Desiree's blog and comments started my brain a steering towards "adult converstaion" and then a conversation with an "old ummmm damn what do I call him.........wasn't just a boyfriend.......okay "VERY" significant other" raised more topics for a blog. So guess what....you're getting the mixture of both!!!!

Hey at least I'm not telling you how many times I went potty today for cripes sake....bare with!!! And here is your favorite :cocktail on the house...:smile

First to Desiree's blog and her post ~ if you want to know what it is about ~ hit the highlight of Desiree. Don't answer here as I can't take credit for this topic nor will I ~ btw woman GREAT job on that post!!!

Second to her comments.......Gawd I feel some of the people who posted to your comments pain.....been there, done that, bought the t-shirt and STILL trying to burn the damn thing!!!!

Thirdly, brings me to my thoughts from conversations with ex significant other ~

Yes they are somehow entertwined, believe it or not us blondes CAN be gifted when cause provoked :wink

Is there anyone in your past that had such a hold on you, be it infactuation *however you spell it*, great sex, large part of your past, or true love gone bad that you think about????

The hold doesn't have to have been just on you ~ the hold could have been a mutual thing but took being apart and talking years later to realize.

If the oppurtunity arose with this particular person to try and "relive the past" would you? Or is the saying true "You can never go back"? Or is it that the love once shared, if that were the case, was so strong, fear ~ insecurities ~ past harsh words exchanged between one another and the like ~ holds you back of "What Might Have Been" or do you just not care to venture to find out for fear "What Might Have Been" just might have been the key to all your happiness?

Dangerous questions aren't they.....maybe Speed and T were right........not much response on this.......but if makes you think hopefully that is a good thing :smile.

I've dabbled in the "What Might Have Been" before Speed and I married ~ LONG before we married!!! Me and my ex significant other after a 6 year relationship, engagement cancled, living togther etc etc.....got back together.....I ended it badly......when he finally realized what I had been saying for years I was pushed to far and closed down ~ wrapped him up in a beautiful little package and placed him so far back in my heart NO one could touch it ~ then I ended it soooooooooooooooooooooooo BADLY!!!! Yet, somehow, we are still able to understand one another, be friends, and care about each other's ultimate happiness with our now spouses. *Note: he nor I agreed that getting married to another was the answer ~ this conversation happened the weekend before I married Speed*

Life tends to throw some sick weird curves in life doesn't it......I guess it all boils down to what makes one happy, how much one can live with their past, and how much one can grow up. It has taken me years, but I've managed with Speed's help and understanding to achieve all in one happy forum, but I also can not dismiss the help along the way from my ex significant other, from him I've learned, no matter how neatly his package is beautifully wrapped away in my heart, he still holds a large part of my heart.... and probably always will.......and also through this same person I learned the true meaning of what hearbreak and regret is all about.......hense the "What Might Have Been, If Only....."

He describes our relationship as ~ and I quote "a bittersweet love story that will go down in history that lived it with us" ~ I guess to some degree he is correct but yet, hense why we are probably not together, I see it differently. And as I told him I don't see it as "bittersweet" more than a sad ending to a very well lived fairy tale of true unconditional love that we were both too afraid to carry to the "till death due us part" and that is without the Romeo and Juliet ending for the record :lol.

In the end, he was right, but to him I'll always be greatful and in all honesty a part of my heart will always be his ~ he was the first I loved unconditionally, before him I never knew the meaning of that word, but through him ~ I learned how to love like a woman/wife should love a person and meet Speed. My soul mate and I truely believe my destiny no matter how much he pisses me off!!! :smile

And for those who look out for Speed, he has read this, he knows all too well before he married me, the baggage I carry :smile yet thank you for the concern on his behalf!!

BAGGAGE FROM LIFE BEFORE MEETING IS WHAT MAKES THE PERSON WHOM YOU'VE GROWN TO LOVE ~ NOT ALL OF IT IS GOOD ~ BUT IN THE END THE LOVE IS THE SAME ~ UNCONDITIONAL

Can Anyone Hear Me Scream

| | Comments (3)

OUCH!!!! I'm reading up on my Irresistable News figuring that I have bored everyone enough of my complaints as Domestic Goddess role in life :smile ~ see ain't I thoughtful :lol

I ran across this article thinking surely this is an Equire type moment. HA!!! I read it then immediately considered becoming a nun on the "off chance" ~ but then figured I lost out on my chance on the whole nun issue.

I'm a firm believer nothing that large needs to enter that area, or any other area for that matter, and depart that large from my body!!! Can anyone imagine the amount of stretch marks that poor lady now has.....

ALL WORK AND NO PAY MAKES A HOUSEWIFE

The Domestic Goddess

| | Comments (4)

Is not happy today!! Slept well last night, however, sleep did not come quickly once I picked up my book to read ~ I'm so addictied to John Grisham!!! Anyhoot, moving along ~

Monday morning I am rudely awaken by the sound of that annoying alarm clock and my body was slow to rise as I was so warm by my snuggling dogs and they grunted almost as loudly as I did when that awful sound intrupted our sleepless wonder.

The day has not progressed any better since this morning ~ it is over cast here ~ great reading/sleeping weather, but the Domestic Goddess that I am *HA HA* has had to kick into over drive, bitching the whole way along.

Can anyone tell me how to rid myself of those laundry room bunnies who seem to keep reproducing no matter how much I do laundry and "THINK" I have it done only to wake in the morning to find MORE to do. I HATE Laundry!!!!

And I'm still trying to figure out why in the state of Texas no matter how often you dust, you walk out of the room thinking you've accomplished something, you walk back in and see dust building yet again GGGGGRRRRRRRR!!!!

Last night before going to bed, I finally found Little Ms. Prissy's floor, with no help from her mind you!! And was rather pleased with myself to also find Mr. Q 14 year old 's floor. Only to walk in their rooms this morning and again can not find the floor ~ have they not picked up on the saying "If Mama ain't happy NO ONE is happy!!" Hubby sure does because he couldn't shower, dress and depart to work fast enough this morning....

Well now that I've bored you shitless I'm going to show you a little picture of my little darlin's taken Easter Sunday ~ they are so cute in this picture so why can't they help keep things straighted up? *sniffle* My pitty party is over for now anyways *S* I"m off to rescue Little Ms. Prissy's blanket from the evil washing machine before she has a stroke!!! Gawd forbid the blanket get a much needed bath!!!

I Really Am Too Old For This!!!

| | Comments (4)

Man, what a night last night! A friend of ours had a delima yesterday and off I ran to help her out. In the end, I wound up with all her kids staying the night over at our house. After finally getting all the kids down for the night, hubby and I had a couple of drinks and watched a movie.

Around midnight the phone rang and low and behold it was my friend, toasted!!! She had another friend at her house and they were absolutely hullarious to talk too then she chims in "You really should get over here ~ we are watching one of your favorite men ~ Patrick"!!! Hubby didn't want me to drive that late especially after drinking so he agreed to run me over there and come pick me up later....Nothing like getting the hormones a jumping that three drunk women watching Patrick take off his clothes :biggrin.

We decided ahhh what the hell we live in a big city, surely there are some strip a grams that could provide us with some entertainment and began our search through the huge Ft. Worth phone book. However, we were shot down, because for some strange reason at 2:30 in the morning, strip a grams don't like to send out their male strippers *humpf* the gaul of them *sniffle*.......

Well several hours later, lots of alcohol later, TONS of laughs later ~ Hubby came and picked me up and brought me back home. Of course I had to call T at work and give her the run down of all the funny events that transipred since she was the only one awake at that Gawd awful hour.

Eventually I made it to bed around 5 a.m. this morning only to be awaken from my drunken slumber by 5 kids around 9'ish. I soon discovered two things.....I still felt like I was drunk and by mid afternoon we didn't have enough advil in the house to ease my pounding head!!! Couldn't drink enough ice water and definately did not obtain enough sleep to get me through this day and night.

My friend stopped by later today to pick up some stuff her kids left behind and I was happy to see that she herself was not back to normal herself :smile. We both decided yet again, we are wayyyyyyy too old for pulling these type stunts.

It is early for me, but my goodness, I'm going to crawl in bed read the rest of my John Grisham novel and drift off to blistful sleepful wonder!!!

It's A Small World After All

| | Comments (1)

Yeah people that song is going on in my mind, with all the little munchicins *however the hell you spell it and all*!!! Tonight I found out JUST how small this world is....on a three way conversation......talked to a lady in a town in South Carolina. When she mentioned the town she lived in, I popped up and stated, ahhhhhh I knew someone way back when in my youth from that town!!! Mentioned exactly "ummm HOW" I knew him :wink again as far as I'm going with issue........and his first name......and OMG she gave me his last name...I about passed out on the floor......can anyone say "instant friendship developed"? :lol

Poor "T" heard more TMI than the poor lady wanted to hear about the particular hunk of hunk of man in question!!!

Hubby comes home, hears me on the phone with Suz's my youthful friend giving her the run down of the "small world", he begins to question what we are talking about and whom, I tell him, his eyebrows lift and says, "tell him thank you for a particular item"......again a topic I'll let your minds wonder on :wink....

Just thought I'd share this mindless dribble with you all wel because I can...........Jo honey, I'll have you blog rolled if I can sweet talk my darlin' "T" into doing my dirty work :lol and if she has recooperated about our descriptive talk about the "small world individual" in question all I have to say in summary is OMG HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MEMORIES LIGHT THE CORNERS OF MY MIND.........DIRTY MEMORIES...AHHHHHH

I'm Alive I Swear ~

| | Comments (4)

What a month this has been :smile but has ended with a very positive note. My parents were here this past week and we had a wonderful time with them. As always, it has been very hard seeing them leave. I'm very much a mama/daddy's girl and I hate living so far away from them. Mama and I were able to spend some much needed quality time together which we needed to heal some wounds from the past year and such. Things have been strained between us until this visit and now we are back to talking several times a day since they left. I've so missed that ~

I have to say T spoils me :biggrin!!!! I've not talked to her but once when my printer stopped working, btw T, it is semi working now thanks :smile. Yet, it appears that she has been doing things for me knowing me so well that I'd want it done. I WUV HER!!!!

I also have one of my "mother's" now blogging ~ you must go and check out her site. I think you will enjoy your walk around there.

Dr. D, I promise I'll try and get Speed to post something soon, but he has been so busy that I've barely seen him. Poor baby!!!

Well I have not much to say of great thought provoking issues but wanted to check in and let those who might be interested know I'm alive and once I've kicked this miagrane from hell I'll be posting more regularly again since life has calmed down a bit for a few months anyways.

Okay Test Are Wrong..

| | Comments (4)

I ventured over to "T's" blog and was happy to see that she posted, and when reading her test out of bordom that hit the nail on the head about her personailty, I decided OMG a test that sounds legit I'm going to run over and take it...........:sad

So I take the test, answer the questions and the results come back saying I"m an "Aries".........:wtf so to give an adequate result I do what any friend would do, I call "T" and say, okay answer these questions about me, like it was me, since you know me so well ~ she does........the results come out as "Taurus". Again :wtf I'm a CANCER!!!!! No wonder I'm so screwed up!!!!!

I'm interested to see if anyone else takes the test on emode titled "What Zodiac Sign Should You Be" to see if you get screwed over as much as I did.......humpfff going to my silent corner now.........GGRRRRR.......tomorrow since I didn't like the site if you haven't gone to "T"'s blog and taken the test I'll post a few of the questions and your option of answers........:smile.

Have a :cocktail everyone

good nite

I won't bore everyone with daily details, but I'll sum it up for you, I'm exhausted from all the activity happening and still more to come........my parents are suppose to be hitting town soon and Steve refers to that news as the week before hell house cleaning, yard cleaning and garage cleaning......

I haven't been around the puter much except for a few hits and misses but I did manage to take a walkie over to see my friend Dr. D's blog and find he has posted a very thought provoking post and the comments are very good as well ~ run on over there and read it and the comments and see where you fall on this issue. I'm still thinking about the issues he brought up as well as his comments brought up. Texas T-Bone and Buffy stated some very thought provoking issues as well, maybe because I believe along the lines of their beliefs *shrugs*, however, Desiree also posted a very thought provoking comment there. Trust me this post and comments to boot will leave you walking away and doing your daily duties and thinking still of the "what if" issue........

As stated to you in your comments Dr. D as well as on IM GREAT POST!!!! Drinks are on me sweets!!!!

GOD NEVER GIVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE, BUT I WISH HE DIDN'T TRUST ME SO MUCH SOMETIMES

Ahhh What The Hell

| | Comments (2)

I'm bored!!! So I went and took an emode test on "Love Personality Test". The results rather shocked me as "I" don't see this being the truth about me and relationships. Let me know what you think I'm curious to your input or stupid for asking.......knowing some who read this blog I'm leaning towards the ladder :smile.

Here are my results....

Jamie, your love personality type is ENTJ

About 3-5% of the U.S. population possesses the combination of traits that make up this personality type.

Being an ENTJ means that you've got a bit of a rebellious streak in you. So rather than being the kind who follows, you'll usually choose to lead the pack. You also appear to love a challenge more than most others do. So if somebody wants something done, all they have to do is tell you that it's impossible. You're apt to show them then and there how you can make it happen. You're not one to be easily discouraged in any aspect of your life. So if someone catches your eye, you'll likely find a way to get to know them come hell or high water. You're not just a dreamer. You're a doer.

In relationships, you usually have a clear sense of where you want things to lead. You also know how to take charge of a situation to help things go your way. You can exude a personal strength and confidence that really wins people over. Your friendly, outgoing nature also makes most people quite happy to follow your lead. Perhaps they're empowered or inspired by your self-esteem and can-do thinking.

Given your test results, Emode's personality experts have determined your four most compatible matches when connecting with others. One of those four compatible types is an ISTJ.

Then of course I took the "Are You Evil Test".......I'll reveal those only by request :lol

EVERY TIME I FIND MR. RIGHT MY HUSBAND SCARES HIM AWAY
jamie_beefairy.jpg

Well I have really tried to figure out what to post about and even tracked Dr. D down to obtain again the addy for blog ideas. He of course lead me in the right direction, but when reading through the list, the one's that appealed to me; well Steve raised a few eyebrows on, knowing how I'd handle the conversation :biggrin.

Anyways, but I do have bragging rights tonight, so we'll start there!!! Got a call from my daddy tonight ~ they were leaving a dinner where my mama was guest of honor. She was nominated as Teacher Of The Year and during the dinner she won!!!!!!! You Go Mom!!!! They are planning on visiting next week and daddy promised that he'd bring me the tape of the event. I can't wait to see it.

Now to my whole bunch of nothing ~ with an upcoming visit of the folks, today began the week of hell of house cleaning.....so to motivate Little Ms. Prissy and myself on a cloudy day we turned on some music and began the never ending task of dusting and vacuming. Through our events which didn't get too far after Little Ms. Prissy's favorite song came on ~ "Kiss This" ~ she did a dance to it today as well which is a first. Then got frustrated because it wasn't going just right so we had to keep playing the song over and over till she got it right to show her daddy when he came home from work. Which he laughed his ass off over stating okay it is time to really consider chastity belts for her because she is definately her mother's child. *SHOCKED LOOK*. Mua, how dare he think such things of his wife :smile.

While I began slowly turning my task back to the house cleaning at hand with the country music channel on Steve and I saw this add that a new singer is running for publicity of winning a phone call from this particular artist which then turned the whole discussion in another direction while the kids were outside playing since "MY" man had just got through singing. For the record "Toby Keith" yummy yummy yummy baby........I'd do him in a New York Second!!!! Steve said okay James lets say Toby runs a promotion like that, you win, you get the phone call what would you do ~ deadly question ~ yet since I never win anything I laughed and said "you know exactly what I do thinking that you were pulling a prank on me" I'd give him more than an earful of what I'd do to him when and how......

Steve laughed, knowing full well I'd do that.....then Steve up's the anty.....he says okay let's say you win, you do that, you find out it isn't me pulling a prank and it is being broadcast somewhere. I know exactly what I'd do...I'D DIE!!!!! Then somehow some way I'd blame you for my embarssement!!!!!

As you can see we have very warped conversations in our house while the kids are playing outside......:lol but amazing how motivated one gets when thinking of "doing" Toby Keith can get things done around the house. Okay maybe it is just me ~ Hey Des darlin' is my "virgin like" behavior showing again :lol.....

I warned you guys I was reaching tonight for blogging material so this is what we wound up with.......now if you've read this far I'll leave you with this question that you can answer or not....

Do you remember that first kiss ~ you know the one where you feel weak at the knees lose track of all surroundings and know nothing but the kiss that you are feeling at that moment and don't want it to end. When it ends you can't wait to feel those lips touch yours again???? Yeah that type kiss that when done no words need to be exchanged because the look in both eyes say all that needs to be said.........if you remember that kiss........where did it lead??? And when was the last time you had one of these kisses?

Gawd Let's Try This Again..

| | Comments (1)

I had such a great post ready to post, went to download something and wiped it all out ~ :angry!!!! Okay shut up from the cheap seats, I know I'm blonde, but ohhh sooo good *wink*....anyways to my post if my wee brain can remember...

It was a food for thought issue~

After watching Stepmom ~ the movie. I know not many like thinking about these issues, but there have been times in my life where I had to face such issues, but I guess my number wasn't up on either Peter Paul's list or the devil...I'm thinking the devil wasn't waiting for compeition :smile.

Anyhoot.........if you've watched Stepmom, which I feel confident most have since it is an old realize, from women's stand point it is a "chick flick", from a man's stand point Julia Roberts and a significant other forcing.....but only agreed because Julia Roberts......yeah I know you sick perverts and wet dreams remember I married one....:lol

So my food for thought is this........could you be man/woman enough to be able to make peace with the "new" person in your "ex's" life, form a friendship/love and respect knowing as the one line that sticks out in my mind of the movie..."Yes I have their past, but you however will have their furture"?

Personally, I don't think I could do that.......during "my issues" my "ex" had a new wife.....whom I hated then and well years haven't helped that issue regardless if my "ex" and I can have a great laugh regularly about life, past and present....aka my boob job that I want and becoming a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader.....:lol

And knowing Steve as I know him, he'd find some woman, who I have no doubt I would fully disagree with about raising BOTH my children...keep in mind with the ex I only had one child then.....now I have two....

My personal view is, I have no doubt that there are some people out there that could handle the situation as the movie portrays, but then there is me, NOT!!!!!!

Can't wait to hear responses, more often than not one's I'll not like, but respond anyway, what is another saying, no pain no gain??? :lol

EVERYTIME I FIND MR. RIGHT, MY HUSBAND SCARES HIM AWAY

I Tried ~

| | Comments (5)

To post something news worthy, but haven't found anything really to post and talk about that wasn't war related. So therefore I guess I need to give an update about my battle with the school district.

With NO help from the school or the District, I had to branch out on my own to find out "EXACTLY" what this program they were planning on showing my son and force my approval on ~ gggrrrrr.

I talked with the counselor at the school in detail to find out "EXACTLY" what the school knew or didn't know. According to her, or at least she didn't know, anything other than what the 3:20 A.M. phone call. She told me I brought up some very valid points that needed to be addressed and that if she had any information of the program going to be shown with to the kids she'd make me copies to pick up, but they had no idea, to what degree or lack there of degree, was being offered to the kids. WTF?

She did however in passing make the mistake of giving me the name of the company :smile. Yes, I was taking notes the whole time I was bitching :smile. I gave the school and the district a dead line to return phone calls and then I was out there on my own to find out this information. I was willing to go as far as I needed to go to stop this if that was the case that was needed.

Since no one felt the need to return my phone call I first started on a search for the company I was told that would be offering this information to our children. That was my first call ~ which turned out to be a very educated call and put my fears and thoughts to rest. The company's name is Aim For Success. They according to their web page are offering a very GOOD package to teach children about sex and the consequences. When I informed them the way the school was handling the parents and thier concerns they were very upset about it and stated that they WOULD be calling the school and the district and discussing this with them. They also informed me that parents WERE ALLOWED to come and watch how the children reacted towards this type of presentation, as a matter of fact, they encouraged it. Yet, the school informed me I'd be police escorated off the campus if I showed up and tried to watch the interaction. *Yes imagine the response they got from me on that issue, basically boiled down to I DARE YOU*.

Well after talking to the company, them sending me information, reading their website etc, I'm very comfortable with this issue and encourage it. Yet, the funny part of the story begins here.......remember the no attempt to return calls from the school or the district............:lol

Well about an hour after I hung up with the company my phone began to ring, the first call came from the District........informing me that they had recieved my message, as well as, a call from the company finding out that the school is not handling dealing with the parents appropriately and that it will be handled immendiately....we exchanged a tense but informative conversation and stated our good byes. Thirty minutes later the school called, all chipper, helpful and the like....*rolling eyes*.....Yet, I still gave them more information that they themselves ever knew about what they are offering to our children.

Now to address those that think I'm against sex education in schools......that is true, but not completely, I think to some degree sex education should be address in schools, but I don't think it should be brought in by the back door behind parents back and not giving them a time and place to state their concerns/protest/or stamp of approval. This school handled this issue as a sneak issue through the back door and that pisses me off......

The school is there to educate my child in math/english/science/history however it is my job as a parent to inform my child about sex in my own way to accomidate his/her maturity level and the like, not the states place. And just as women don't appreciate the state telling them what they can do with their own bodies, I don't appreciate the state telling me what I'm suppose to deal with or not deal with when it comes to my children and sex education falls into that issue.

Do I believe that sex education is the only way that most children will ever learn about the birds and the bees well hello YES ~ but I'm not dead set against sex education in the schools, however, I think it is the parents that should choose which form/how it is presented to the children and the like. Not the schools picking it out, planning it, obtain funding for it, then the night before they are going to place our children in that type of setting THEN inform the parents.......I DON'T think so!!!!

Anyhoot, that is about as informative as I am today :smile.

If you are interested in taking a lookie see at the web site of this particular company it is here.

Hope everyone has a good weekend and stays safe!!!

GOD NEVER GIVES ANYONE MORE THAN THEY CAN HANDLE, BUT SOMETIMES I WISH HE DIDN'T TRUST ME SO MUCH

3:20 a.m. my phone rings not long after me hanging up with an over seas conversation with Ms. Phil aka Sylvia........she and I are talking on msn because Steve is having a stroke about the phone bill.............when this phone call comes in.....

Here is the phone call.....mind you at 3:20 A.M. IN THE MORNING.......

NOTE AHEAD OF TIME MY LACK OF SPELLING THAT IS HOW PISSED I AM ON A GOOD DAY!!!!!!

This is *school*, calling on behalf of the *principle*, as a curtiousy call about sex education. We are having a "parent's only meeting *on this date/this time" for questions and review of what we are going to be discussing with your children about sex".

OKAY WTF?????????????????????????????

Sex Education is important to children, I agree, but since WHEN do the SCHOOLS and THEIR VALUES, RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND MORALS / OR LACK THERE OF have the right to tell my children who, where, excatly to what extend etc etc of having sex?????????

Last time I checked, the schools and all their so called "morals" weren't in the delivery room, much less in conception...........and if I concieved at 3:20 AM in the morning it wasn't from a damn phone call, automated phone call at that, to cover one's ass!!!!!!!

Well of course, being the kind, considerate individual I am..........I called the school and left an equally kind and considerate message on their answering machine DEMANDING NO LESS than the PRINCIPAL him/her self call me back at my number ASAP!!!!!

My children are EXACTLY THAT!!!!!! When I concieved them, it wasn't under a law, it wasn't under distress, it wasn't under anyone's morals, they were concieved out of love BOTH my children............since when does the STATE/SCHOOLS/ ETC have the RIGHT to discuss these issues WITH MY CHILDREN? This message wasn't about you have an option, it stated on this date your child will be hearing an indepth conversation of sexual activity...........I DON"T THINK SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BY WHOSE RULES??????????????????

OMG I'm PISSED!!!! Yeah I know Suz you are reading this right now and saying to yourself, "they so don't know who they are messing with, I remember when....." :lol......you are so right...they don't but they will learn.........even if it means me keeping my child out of school that day and THEY WILL EXCUSE HIS ABSENCE!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not a mother who buries her head in the sand, I talk openly with my children of both ages of sex, drugs, alcholo, cig's, internet and the like.....I'm very open with my kids about MY mistakes.........I don't judge them for what they choose, but I'm lucky, thus far, my kids are much more mature that I ever was at their age.............I don't need the STATE or the SCHOOLS to teach my children.....I do a damn good job on my own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry had to rant and at this hour NO ONE IS UP!!!! GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRR

I'm pumped and Suz you are right, I didn't think you were reading :lol!!! How is Lori when she heading back to town and when are you and my baby coming with her??? Okay people enough boring issues :smile

To her post to me about motherhood ~ I have to say ~ I WARNED YOU!!!!!

For those that I know HATE reading "life issues", you'll hate this post, so go grab your favorite cocktail already mixed at the bar for you :wink and stop reading now......

Suz, you have been on my mind heavy lately, I've even tried contacting you via msn, phone etc, but our schedules seem so out of wack......I MISS YOU!!!

And obviously I'm going to have to come home just to kick hubby's ass and break his damn recliner!!! As much as I'd hate that as I love that chair in your house :smile.

I have news about my upcoming birthday that I'm rather proud of my hubby about ~ he agreed ~ in a nick of time I might add ~ to buy me tickets to see the Eagles in Concert on the 19th ~ I'm so PUMPED!!!!!

Yes, Suz, I know, I've already seen them in North Carolina, however, this is the EAGLES, you know the songs, the one's playing on the radio while we are trying to dig out a vehicle of mud when we are already hours out of curfew, the same group playing while you are taking out the bar chairs when we agreed in our drunken state, we make a silent enterance to go "pee", you walk in start laughing, trip over a bar stool and take the whole line out.......need I go further down memory lane??? :lol

GOD I MISS YOU!!!! Mama and daddy are trying to be here for their Easter break so if they make it I don't know when I'll be home again since Ryan's baseball team won an "in" to the Junior World Series in Michigan this year. Joannie starts ballet Thursday of this week and is so siked!!!! It is hard to believe that she is old enough to be participating in these type activities......and Ryan is 6 foot 2 ~ you know the one ~ age three at "our" apartment ~

The things we could rat each other out on *wink* but we never do...........and we even taught Lori right....no matter how much Steve tries ever time she comes to visit about obtaining that ummmmm "revealing" tape of me.......she plays stupid so well.....she makes "us" proud!!!! :lol

Yes people, my youth is much more exciting than my adulthood........ohhh wait they intertwin don't they Suz??? I forgot the whole, dancing on the bar, us getting seperated, me somehow managing through a road block drunker than a skunk....you calling at 7 a.m. and daddy walking in telling me I needed to help him take the trash out...us meeting up later and you informing just what all I did that night...OUCH.......

And that was on our "calm" nights huh Suz :lol

However, Suz, it gets better, the men eventually grow up *aka husbands* and we wonder where their zest for life went too, it seems our "time tables" never seem to twist together except to conceive children..............

Love to my baby boy, slap Glenn for me, tell Lori she is long over due for a visit as well as, I haven't talked to you lately, but Dustin passed away March 8th....we'll talk later when I can about that........Love to you always....

Everyone else that read this all the way through sorry, but she is my childhood friend and she more than deserves a post JUST FOR HER.........if you want to read her comment on my blog go back to "I'm Still Alive" post......that is my Suz!!!!!

Everyone stay safe.......

EVERY TIME I FIND MR. RIGHT MY HUSBAND SCARES HIM AWAY

Before my rant from before :smile.

Let me set it up for you ~ you've met your mate for life at a young age, the two of you, regardless of sex, have a child. One of the two of you are out in the park swinging your child, enjoying the sun on your face, the laughter of the small voice you are swinging when at a young age of three, you suffer a stroke.....a stroke that puts you or your spouse into a coma for years.........

What do you do???? How do you go year after year still loving yet still being alive...........?????????

Then out of a miracle, your spouse who suffered this stroke went into a coma, years later, comes out of it but with only memories of a child you share of the age three but now they are in their 20's.......your spouse lost 20 years of thier life.......what do you do???????

Give it some thougt.....but also think about this........does love really conqure all?? We are human after all........think about it and I'd love to hear some feed back.....

I Finally Have A Post...

| | Comments (3)

Well when I first started typing this it was to be about a movie I watched.....give you something to think about and respond too, however, something else caught my attention in my "responses" to my blog that has raised a question.....

Has anyone ever had a comment made by an "anonymous" person. Meaning, email is fake, ip is through hoops and bounds to track, no record other than something negitave towards you as a person or raising an eyebrow to "who is this person"????

Well, I get plenty of those, but they tend to go further back into my archives before they make a post so that I'm the only one, unless you are looking, to read and receive the email....

Question.....WTF is up with that??? Why do people feel the need to hide under false emails, ip's, names and the like, if you don't like what I have to say or not say here is a clue........DON'T COME FUCKIN" READ ME.......and if you are here to read to find out issues about your life or the like, well I'm glad to say, you are sadly disappointed....I do not post private issues they are none of your damn business....

This sticks in my crawl, maybe because, I refuse to hide behind anything or anyone false or likewise...if I have something to say I say it, do you have agree ummm NO.....but it is my right to say what I have to say how I choose to say it.....

I'm not one who post private issues in my life, on occassion I have, however, for the most part, I don't......and I don't appreciate anyone hiding to post to my blog.....say what you have to say, post your name and email address and be proud of it.......if you can't then don't bother posting or commenting, because if it is false I WILL track you down. You may not hear from me, but you will be notified if you continually present yourself in a bad light on this blog in comments!!!

For those that read my blog regularly and comment as whom they are in real life, please dismiss this post, and I apologize for this rant, it was not my intention when I first started blogging, but "pigglywiggly" I've got your number honey/mister and if you continually keep this up, I will stop it from THIS particular blog!!! What I have to say or not to say "piggly" is not for you to say now is it???? And until you can come out in your true form then you will with all internet powers to me and my friends be banded from commenting........God willing....

IF YOU CAN'T BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF ABOUT WHO YOU ARE, THEN SPARE US ALL FROM YOU HIDING FROM YOURSELF AND KEEP YOUR COMMENTS TO YOURSELF

After wandering through some of my regular reads, and for the record, glad to see you back posting again "T" and "L", as well as, a heated conversation "T" and I had on the phone today. Damn woman we seem to be having a great deal of those lately......:lol.......I decided I'd pose this question for everyone....

Do you think that Church and State should be seperated? And if so, then explain to me why "Pro-Lifer's" can wind up before a Supreme Court trying to make abortion illegal under the guidelines of "religion"? And if Church and State are really "seperate" why can't same sex marriages be recognized except in the state of Vermont?

Drugs are a completely different elimatent *however you spell it*, as drugs, regardless the drug, and more now than ever alcohol being in that mixture of "drug", as it is associated with violate crimes, rape, murder, gangs, etc etc etc.......

I'm by rights a very reigious person, I believe in God and his power, and I'm a God fearing woman, however, "I" believe many people take it over board. "T" can vouch for the fact, I'm not a bible thumper, for crying out loud, I do good to not take a drink when my parents *which for the record my daddy is a preacher* come to town, however NEVER in front of them. They could search my house high and low and NEVER find a lick of alcohol in this house, I'm very good at hiding things :smile many years of practice I guess. Why don't I drink in front of my parents as an adult? RESPECT plain and simple RESPECT........enough said..........

Now I want to hear rants, views and the like about the seperation of Church and State and if you really feel that America seperates the two FOR ALL CAUSES or just "SELECT" one's?

MY INNER CHILD IS A SASSY LITTLE BITCH TOO

I'm Still Alive ~

| | Comments (3)

Just been very busy and haven't had much thought provoking information to post about so I went without posting ~ so if anyone out there is still stopping by and reading stop by and crab a :cocktail!!!

Okay, today I took some time out of my day and sat down and watched two shows I use to watch all the time and on both the topics were very thought provoking Dr. Phil and Oprah today. I'm going with Oprah's discussion today basically because "I CAN RELATE".

The topic was about What Your Mother Didn't Tell You About Motherhood. About feelings once becoming a mother you don't feel right about expressing because people will label you a "bad mother". Yet, people go into marriage knowing there are going to be rough spots, that is expected, jobs aren't expected to be enjoyed every day of one's life, so why when a woman becomes a mother they are expected to be happy 24 hours a day 7 days a week?

I love both my children with all my heart, to be honest, I don't know what life before them was like or that I'd want to go back to life without them, however, there are some days that I would just enjoy being able to sleep until I woke up, enjoy a cup of coffee without having to reheat it several times before I get through it well you obviously get the picture.

A great deal of people consider women who are stay at home mom's have the life of luxurey. For a long time I was one of those women when I worked as a single mom. I remember laughing with friends saying, man what I wouldn't give to be a stay at home mom for a change. Well I found out and some of the largest arguements Steve and I have had is over my frustration of being a stay at home mom, the "stigma" that is attached to it and how now I'm treated differently. The butt end of peoples bad taste jokes, inconsiderate feelings towards me as a person/woman and mother etc etc....

The decision to be a stay at home mom was mine ~ I'm a woman that wants to be the first person to see the first smile, hear the first laugh, watch the first step and hear the first word. I'm very lucky I married a man who understood that and although finances have been tight to allow me to do this for our children we have managed.

As much as Steve tries to elevate some of the high stresses that go along with me staying at home, there is a great deal of the time, he fails terribly!! NO One's fault just the high frustrations running ramped ~ like today for example ~ my son is out of school on spring break ~ he and my daughter have done nothing for the past two days but fight non stop and personally it is a toss up on who's hair I want to ripe out first.....I'm leaning more towards the children :lol *people I'm KIDDING*!!!!!!!!!

Dr. D, for the record, this is one of the topics us women discuss while talking, disagree with, argue about and sometimes agree about. Women just don't seem to be able to agree and get along on many topics excpet men bashing :biggrin.

How Oprah covered this topic today was really great, I enjoyed watching it and finding out I'm not the only woman in the world that feels this way, or the guilt of finally deciding to go back into the work force. And the overwhelming amount of guilt, anger, frustration, and with all of those bad feelings still an amount of love and beam with pride when talking of their children. But to sum it all up, mother's do not prepare their daughters for the TRUE expectations of motherhood. It isn't all roses ~ and never forget roses as beautiful as they are they still have thorns!!!

YOU THINK YOU'RE STRESSED OUT NOW ~~ WAIT TILL YOU GO TO HELL
