Christmas

Great Christmas!

Even tho I fought it every step of the way! ;)

But now it's raining cats and dogs here, then it'll freeze and we will be in for it big time! Evan was in another car accident last week. His friend was driving and they hit a patch of ice and hit a telephone pole. No one was hurt, thank you God, but he did hit his head on the window and it busted, glass flying all over him..But that kid has a very hard head, so I think the window hurt more than he did!

I have to work till 11pm tonite. Now tell me...who in their right mind goes out on Christmas Day to rent a frickin movie?! People GET movies as gifts...they don't go out and rent movies! But we are open 365 days a year, regardless...even when there's no power in the store...as I found out a few weeks ago. So I will be watching "Elf" on repeat tonite since I work part of the time by myself.

I cooked up a storm yesterday. I made Dog's goat cheese stuffed olives which were a HUGE hit...and I made crepes, which no one ate. Well, Evan ate about 4 of them and got sick.....oh well. Next time, I'll make twice as many olives since Stephen at about 50 of them all by himself! I forget what's it's like to have 3 big boys in the house, eating wise. Gawd, they can eat! and they don't get fat either, which totally pisses me off! I'm still down 30 lbs.....and have hit a plateau. So I'm going to up the ante, so to speak....adding weights now. I want to lose about 20 more pounds and then I'll be happy. Marvin said he'll buy me some boobs if I want them! I told him I'll think abou tit...OOPS! THINK ABOUT IT!!! HAHAHAH!!!!

Missed my Mom like crazy today and last night when everyone was here. Only cried about an hour last night in the tub. Then I stayed up until 3:30AM talking to the kids about our "situation" here in the house. I wish I would have made big changes when they were little...I think it would have been easier on them. Cuz change is very hard for them now. This family is all they've ever known and I'm changing everything...or at least I wanted to change everything. Now, I'm not so sure. If you think you can stay In an unhappy relationship "for the kids"...believe me, don't. It's not worth it. Cuz they might be older and adults, but it still effects them and they still hurt considerably. and I never wanted to hurt my kids...ever. I thought they would understand how I feel now that they're older. I was wrong. So, lots to think about and consider.

I'm stuffed with ham...and hot chocolate and I think I'm off to take a nap before I have to battle the old men looking for their Christmas porn!!!

Oh my god hon, love your blog. So cool that he'll buy you boobs if need be!
I was just talking to youngest today and mentioned to her about all the kids we know who's parents got divorced, and that it is hard, but it doesn't make them angry forever or anything, and I mentioned a friend of mine, whose parents had stayed together for the kids, and how she wished they hadn't. They fought all. the. time.

Everyone has to look at their own personal situation and see what they need to do. Glad you're talking to the kids and getting help.

Really glad that kid has a hard head, but tell the guy to put on his seatbelt, m'kay?

hugs

Enjoy elf!

Dearest TrannyBeth -

Nothing says "Christmas" like some good porn...

I'm so glad you had a nice holiday. Things are good (but rainy) here in PA also.

By the way, I'd be more than happy to give you MY boobs... :)

Love You!! Merry Christmas!!!

Ah, Christmas and car wrecks....My boys were t-boned by a Crazed Christmas shopper from out of town who was racing to find a store and ran a stop sign. Totaled our car, Eldest was fine, GB, who was closest to the crew cab pickup that the shopper was driving, had another stint in physical re-hab. As a football player he was in there all time anyway. (is that David as the Arby's icon??)

Change IS hard and totally totally sucks, but everything will be OK. I like to remind myself there even though change is hard, there is a lot of hope in it, too :)

Merry Christmas! Love you!

Really? Nothing was open in my town, maybe 7-11 but we never left the house. We ran out of toilet paper too and had to use paper towels..LOL. So what are your plans? My hubby and I got into it BAD the other week but I told him I want things to change in a big way.

Beth said...

Yeah, it's tough at any age for the kids. I do hope things all work out for the best - for everyone.

Glad to hear you guys had a great Christmas! But separating parents is hard to deal with, regardless of the kids' ages. Even adult 'kids'. Think things through and follow your heart.
