shades:
I hope not--cause if you spend less time here, I'll have less to read.
Besides, we'd miss ya. |
Aww, thanks.
So, if you think Adrian would be interested in packages from a complete stranger (filled with whatever goodies he really wants/needs), let me know. |
I'm sure he'd really appreciate that. As you mentioned, care packages are really a bright spot for a lot of the men and women over there. I'll look and see if I still have your email address. If not, email me at brandie0121 at yahoo dot com, and I'll get the info to you.
It's really thoughtful of you to offer to do this, Shades. Thank you.

Mason: LOL. Maybe I just need to get her a wee little desk with her own computer. Hehe.
pseudo:
Good deal with the Scouts. |
Hehe, at this point it's exhausting me, but the kids love it.

My ex just contacted me today via email saying that she's looking into Cub Scouts for my older boy. I'm just sorry that I won't be around to participate. |
That really sucks. I don't know if you live far from your ex, but maybe you can participate in some of the activities when they correspond with time off?
Maso:
Oh well, it is a label a lot of us here could earn easily so at least you're not alone in your patheticness (sp?) |
LOL. Yeah, but I think I take pathetic to a whole new level. It is nice to finally get some recognition for my efforts, though.

Zoo:
Heh, heh...I gave up on "real" hobbies a long time ago. |
All my hobbies are either kid or computer related. I did try growing some tomatoes and basil and flowers, and apparently I suck at that.
Real hobbies are for suckers, right? Hehe.
InBloom:
Hey, I want to earn a computer badge, too... |
Haha, ok....here's the requirements for earning the Too Much Computer Time Badge:
1. Check Joeuser, email, and various message boards at least 10 - 20 times throughout the day.
2. Participate in online interaction via email, blogging, or message boards by contributing a minimum of 20 posts to the various sites.
3. Discover 3 online stores and purchase at least one new item from each site. Follow up by tracking shipping several times throughout the day until packages arrive.
4. Have a discussion with a friend or family member about a) the benefits of internet interaction,

the cost of shipping or c) someone you "met" online (be sure to talk about them as if you actually know them).
LOL. Anyone up for the challenge? Hahaha.
Well, enjoy it while you can...like you said, your baby girl will change all of that soon. |
It seems such a long ways away, but I know she will be here before I know it. And the boys and I will have a lot of adjustments to make!

Kelly:
Pretty soon, you will be begging to sit down and have some quiet. |
No kidding! Although, one nice thing about breastfeeding is that I HAVE to sit down and relax several times a day. No choice. Hehe.
That was pretty ingenious of your son though. Kids sure do know how to get to the meat of things, don't they. |
That's so true. They catch on. And they don't mind letting you know what they've noticed...usually in the most unflattering wording possible!
ScoffPiggy: Happy to see you here on my blog. Haha. You're one of my new favorite people.

The world could do with a bunch more pathetic people like yourself. Perhaps that could be your new hobby. You could teach other parents to be just as pathetic as you. You've only got to turn the news on at night to know how much its needed. |
What a nice thing to say.

Although, I'm pretty sure we don't want the world's parents imitating a woman who walks her kids to school in her pajamas and whose children wear mohawks. LOL.
As someone whose going to one day be old and infirm in a world run (hopefully) by kids like yours all i can say is "thank you". |
So sweet. Thank you.
I wonder if "Mum" sounds as stupid to you as "Mom" does to me. lol |
Actually, I go by "Momma"...I guess someday when my kids are older I'll be upgraded to "Mom" status. Then again, I could make my kids seem more worldly by enforcing a strict "Mum" policy. Hehe.
