Long Time Much Has Happened

It has been a long long time since I have written a blog, there is much to catch up on.

Christmas was a great event my siblings and their families came to my house, we had 19 people and 6 dogs, AB, TP, and MG loved all the other puppies 2 were visiting with family one we found Christmas Eve and no vets offices were open till the next Monday so the lost puppy spent Christmas with us. But happily we found her home, and her people were happy to have her back. We also had a very White Christmas I was so very happy! New Years was fun as always.

AC had a part in the school musical Titanic she was a French mistress she do so well the whole cast was awesome.They received an award for best program design.

Then graduation was approaching and BD was on course to receive his diploma with honors, or so we thought He failed the written part of a state test and we were told he would not be receiving a diploma. The fight was on in the end he was able to take a different test and pasted so he did receive a diploma! Yeah and graduated with honors. He gave a speech for his baccalaureate again he did a great job!

HSSH thew me a surprise birthday party, so many friends and family came and partied. It was the same weekend as graduation so we partied with friends and family all weekend long! The weather was so nice it was warm but not blasting hot.

Life is moving on I have one graduated and over the next 2 years both of my other teens will be graduating. It leaves me wondering what will I do then! I guess I have a new adventure in life to look forward to.

Tis the Season

Holidays are coming soon this year I am anticipating them more then usual. Not sure why Just am.
We as a family were originally headed to see family in another state for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Things came up and we are having them both at home. For Thanksgiving my brother is coming and a friend. For Christmas my sisters and brother and their families are coming. So I will have a happy house full. The teens are excited as is HSSH. He enloys the brother in laws they can do guy stuff, like deep fry a turkey, paintball?, play video games, and have someone to watch action movies with. The teens like action but are to loud for him. I don't watch movies too much. So everyone is excited for the Holidays this year.

For now Happy Thanxmas!

Random

Just some random thoughts today cause my mind is not connecting things today.

Okay so they all just went flying away. So a few other things if I can remember them.

Life is good, I have 3 healthy teens driving me crazy. But add everyday I Love You Mom!!
I have been subbing at their high school each one will say Hi Mom when they spot me in the hall, or when I end up sitting in their class. AC invited me to stand with her and her friends during her lunch. My lunch break was at the same time. I feel it a honor that they like me around. My HSSH and I were asked by AC and her date to be chaperons for dinner when they went out for Homecoming. The boys both like going places with me and introducing me to friends.

I have my HSSH whom works very hard to provide for us. Recently he was on strike and had no income some how he worked it out and ended up doing odd jobs for people and we made all our bills without falling behind. We thank God for that. He tells me everyday how much he loves me and never leaves with out giving me a kiss.

I have house to call home and looking forward to buying one soon. (we rent) Food is on the table and in the cupboards, although BP would argue that point. It's not always what he likes.

Animals to care for and receive laughs, loyalty, and love in return. Oh yeah MG is ours, no people came to claim her. AB is not so sure she like the compitition, TP loves having another dog here.

SC caught a mouse early in the morning and decided that my bathroom was a great place to play with it. I got up to go and the mouse shot out from under a towel toward my feet, with SC help. I screamed and pick up my feet and screamed "GET IT KITTY" she didn't. HSSH came to the rescue and took care of the mouse and send SC out side. But after that excitement I could not go back to sleep. Neither did HSSH, sorry sweetie!

God is good and I am Blessed to have love to give and receive.

Happy Day!

Drugged

Here is a little blurb about drugging I found interesting.


"Oh To Be Drugged"
The other day, someone at a store in our town read that a Methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county. He asked me a rhetorical question, " Why didn't we have a drug problem when you and I were growing up?"

I replied that I did have a drug problem when I was young: I was drug to church on Sunday morning. I was drug to church for weddings and funerals. I was drug to family reunions and community socials no matter the weather.

I was drug by my ear when I was disrespectful to adults. I was drug to the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents, told a lie, brought home a bad report card, did not speak with respect, spoke ill of the teacher or the preacher, or if I didn't put forth my best effort in everything that was asked of me.

I was drug to the kitchen sink to have my mouth washed out with soap if I uttered a profanity. I was drug out to pull weeds in my mom's garden and flower beds and cockelburrs out of dad's fields.

I was drug to the homes of family, friends, and neighbors to help some poor soul who had no one to mow the yard, repair the clothesline, or chop some firewood, and if my mother had ever known that I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she would have drug me back to the woodshed.

Those drugs are still in my veins, and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say, and think. They are stronger than cocaine, crack, or heroin: and if today's children had this kind of drug problem, America would be a better place to live. God bless the parents who drugged us!!

This is a drug problem I grew up with and want to say a big Thank you to my parents. I hope these are the drug problems my teens have.

Happy day!

End & Memories

Tonight I was at a friends house our teens grew up together. They had an end of the year party. It was amazing the stories we both have, about our teens. We both have a teens who are now seniors in high school next year they graduate BD is one.WOW!!!

Being able to watch them grow and become the great people they are is truly amazing and the Struggles they have gone through the years and how hard we as parents have had to fight many battles to make sure they are able to be and grow. Both boys were born way to early and had a rough start. School did not come easy for either of them, yet here they are looking toward college. After the struggles of high school they both want to continue.

I was able to create memories with such a great family! I feel truly blessed.
