Mother-in-law

Sorry I haven't written lately friends. My dear sweet mother-in-law (I know...I've heard all the mother-in-law jokes, but mine is an angel) has advanced cancer and is hospital. We have been with her day and night. She never complains and no one knew about the cancer until she started bleeding. Then... Sign in to see full entry.

"Mr. Mouse"

Daughter #3 (Free Spirit) needed hernia surgery when she was not quite 2 years old. The night before her surgery, my in-laws brought her a stuffed animal. It was a mouse and had a long stocking cap on and a squeaker in his ear. It was almost as big as my daughter. She immediately fell in love and... Sign in to see full entry.

Wild Child's Daughter

Wild Child sent me a picture of her daughter, Little Rosebud, the other day. Of course, Wild Child says she has Little Rosebud because of that mother's curse. You know the one I mean - "I hope you have a child just like you!" Actually, I told her I hoped she had twins just like her. Anyway, Little... Sign in to see full entry.

My 10 year old grandson and my son-in-law have a favorite activity. They go to "Comicon" every year in March. I don't understand it, but I think it has something to do with comics, graphic novels, Star Wars, and such. Anyway, my grandson has developed quite a taste for fish so they decided to go to...

Nicknames

For some reason, my husband likes nicknames and has given one to each of our grandkids. I'll attempt to tell you why he says he named them what he did. #1 daughter: Big Guy (because I'm the original "Guy"), 'Lil Bit (because she's a little bit of heaven), and "B" (because we called him Budda Baby)....

Haircut

When my kids were young, our next-door neighbor ran a hair salon out of her home. One day, I had scheduled Wild Child for a haircut. Right before our appointment, my son got hurt while riding on his skateboard. I called our neighbor, told her what had happened, and how I wanted Wild Child's hair.... Sign in to see full entry.

Peace

I got a phone call one November afternoon from a nosy neighbor. She wanted to know if I knew my kids were playing tag on the roof. Well, duh! I could hear them. They weren't playing tag though. They were putting up Christmas lights. My son (clone of Wild Child or the other way around) and Wild Child... Sign in to see full entry.

Kinda funny

Ok, so last nights blog was a little intense. However, I do have a story about my ex. I had left the kids with him to run to the store for a few things. He was not drinking nor was he drunk when I left. But I returned home about 30 minutes later to find my 4 year old daughter in charge of her... Sign in to see full entry.

Alcoholism

I know I usually write humorous stories, but tonight I'm a little somber. It's my two year anniversary in AlAnon this month. I thought I would share what I said in my meeting tonight: After coming to AlAnon for two years and listening to others stories, I've come to realize that I've been dealing...

wedding

Free Spirit is getting married in 16 days!!!! I never in my wildest dreams thought this one would settle down. I also do not know what I was thinking when I said I would make 160 favors! Didn't seem like so many at the time, but... Sign in to see full entry.
