I promise maybe it's a universal?? All I know is they leave stuff everywhere and blame each other when it can't be found. Thing 1 has bangs today which she didn't have yesterday. Hmmm," how did they get there?" says mama..."I don't know but it's Carrie's fault" says Rachel (huh??) we were all asleep--I pick them up from school and she has bangs (which look okay but a bit roughly cut and she hates them) And it's her fault if she can't find stuff she's left on the floor... |

There is hope for the rest of us. Yeah.LOL Thanks Kendra! Thanks everyone for the well wishes, the foot did fine! I went super slow - and I mean slow, but no pain - woo hoo No worries on the memory Kendra - it's been a comedy of injuries that have plagued it starting with PF last May/June timeframe |

MotoQueen 13195 | Subject: RE: Nibbs XI zipp1 - 2008-01-02 8:09 PM We used to call "Quiet Car". We did this with work though rather than with teens. I used to do programs with the library, puppet shows and such and one person did not know how to stop talking. So we started calling "quiet car" to shut her up.

MotoQueen 13195 | Subject: RE: Nibbs XI Good news to all of you. Your kids do grow up and even if they don't get along, they move out of your house and you don't have to hear it day afer day after day after day after day, etc. Of course you may to encourage them to leave home. Our daughter went off to school and basically never came back home (weekends and summers don't count). She got married when she graduated and is still happily married. Our son, we had to finally nudge him out the door at the ripe old age of 23. Now he is human to us again and we actually enjoy his company. |
