I have two kids and have to pay a $5 parking ticket whenever I do not move my car on Thursday nights after church when hubby works, because the sweeper runs 4am to 6am. Walking a block with the kids home is just not safe at 9pm in ANY neighborhood and can't just leave them upstairs alone. So every other Friday. LOL

Yeah I can't go outside past a certain hour cause all the crazies seem to come out and it feels dangerous then, and it's my neighborhood, does that mean I'm crazy if I go out then?

I regret the time I was more of a city person, and got taken in at 18, after being kicked out and used the excuse "I watched a man chop off his arm while chopping wood" to get out of chopping wood and carrying it back.

Then i had to explain that story
:( that one hit me in the heart felt area!

I am seriously displeased with the fact that I hadn't worn a wedding ring in years cuz I outgrew mine, and then recently my wife found her father's old wedding ring (a kind, warm-hearted man and a great father). So she gave it to me and it fit, and I loved it! It was light and pretty comfortable.

So I come home from work this morning and sat at the computer and was starting to type something when I looked down at my left hand and IT WAS GONE!! Must have slipped off my finger cuz it was just a tad loose.

Looked everywhere.
Can't find it.
Aggravated!

Really?? How so??

I lost my kids when they were young, my ex wife divorced me and I had a bad surgery that left me jobless so I had to move back home. Long story short she disapeared with my kids and moved from state to state then announced she was having them adopted by a man she married 3 months after our divorce. I got a lawyer but he said the law in her state was such that I was going to lose my children and I did. I kind don't like people throwing kids out of their homes. Anyways enough about me...

What I really hate is when a child throws a temper tantrum at the store and the parent shows them tough love instead of cuddling them and working it out, usually by that time it's too late anyways. Just sometimes it's bad parenting me thinks.

Get you a rental metal detector!!

That's an idea... could be in the front yard between the car and the front door... It would be a miracle, though. I bet I lost it throwing papers with my left hand. I'd have to cover an area that's about 3 square miles...

I still need to go check and see if I'm still married.

If I still am, I guess not all is lost, LoL.

I'm sorry to hear that. I left at 16 for home reasons and my parents are nomadic! So there was never a stable place to go to. No real place to call home!

Luckily I had a thing happen as a kid and I got to ask for whatever I wanted so Jesus, thank you for my future big blue house and my future husband /family!

Everything else is temporary.. Similar thing happened to me, too.

I am so sorry!

I dont know of I could pass the test of having my children taken from me.. I pray the Lord spare me that.

May He bless you and your children!

Pax!
On a serious note I didn't pass that test, I tried to take my own life, but God put some kinda force on me and I couldn't move to do it. But that was many years ago and I'm over it now and hoping to see them when they turn old enough, so there's still hope for me. I enjoy your posts @Philip James you have a great way of conveying your messages, very peaceful, I'm not as peaceful I can tell.

OK so you know about things like that, I'm truly sorry that anything like that happened to you, and I don't like it.

I'm tired of unicorn poo being made into a cute glittery rainbow toys in the Walmart stores and I will never understand it!!!!

Why don't the Bratz Dolls wear any clothes!!!

PUT THE ORIGINAL 95 ERA MR POTATO HEAD BACK:mad::mad::mad:
I second that. When people politicize a plastic spud, something's going bad in their brain psn. Probably the broccoli. That would 'splain it.

There's a movie for kids titled, Flushed Away!
You got it. Cartoonuzed poop with features. And what speaks to the lovely holiday that is Christmas but an ornamental Christmas poo.
And if that's not pooey enough, there's rainbow colored diarrhea WEARING A FACE!
How do I know this? The merch is on clearance at the local Walmart.o_O:rolleyes::confused:

The children are our future. :cool: pooooooo
