Dear Eve

Angeline · Dec 21, 2004

mailbox alert.

But I did want to tell you that one of my three picks was right.

WickedEve · Dec 21, 2004

I will clean the pm pig sty out.
I knew who it was the second after I sent you a PM.
I ain't too sharp in the attic. Got spiders creepin' 'round thar. uhhhh ohhhhh God, I need some coffee. And my kids are on their way home early from school and they won't go back for 2 weeks. Someone just bitch slap me. This "santa's watching, so we're being good" phase won't last.

They're getting past the age where veiled threats about Santa will work.

I swear, at some stage the "Naughty List" becomes an honor roll!

but they outgrow it, right?

Unfortunately, Santa took me off his naughty list. He felt that I was obsessing too much over it. He said something about a lump of coal. I said that was fine as long it had 3 speeds and was battery operated.

You mean there is a list beyond the naughty list? Are you on double secret probation?

To be naughty with? Or for bail?

I don't know. I haven't had to bail any of mine out yet. I just like to be prepared.

And my idea of being naughty with my kids is telling them to go read JD Salinger.

Mine will be to tell them to read Angeline. I would suggest Eve, but then they would need bail money for me.

You haven't lived till your child is brought home in the backseat of the cruiser....(Was it thirteen or fourteen?)

The younger one....(eighteen in a couple of days)...sometimes forgets whether he lives at my house or his girlfriends house....

Kids.....Jail wouldn't be that bad.....

*Catbabe* · Dec 21, 2004

*sticking my head in the snow*

That's the Canadian version of the ostrich thing.

Y'all need to stop scaring those of us who still have many teen and pre-teen years ahead ...

It's 10:00; do you know where your children are?
Safely locked away!

Actually, I was thinking about me, after I've committed at least acts of homicide.

I think the Fool meant it would be better to live in jail than with his kids.

Or did I just let my impression of the Fool's past behaviour influence me?

LOL Maybe you don't want them to have bail money!

Have I ever told you the story about my younger son when he wrecked his bike into the dumpster? (Obviously not.) He had to ask his buddy where our house was because he couldn't remember. I think he was about 13 for that one too.

I don't call him stupid for nothing

Okay I will admit to snickering at that, but then the mother in me wants to ask if he was okay.

I think I will cover my ears and hum Christmas carols so I dont hear any more things that make me want to start building holding pens in the basement.

He's doing fine, that was about five years ago. He finally grew up a bit. Now he is working in getting the scholarships for college. He starts next year. The older one is a Junior in college.

Both be out of the house (sort of) and I will only be 43....

Of course now someone has taken to really liking little dogs.....

Only 43... I will be so ancient by the time mine leave. When mine finally leave and I finally have time to have fun and do as I please, I'll be doing it from the local nursing home.

Assuming the "leaving at 18" rule (which might be dangerous) I will be 47...a mere 13 years away. I can picture it now.

Actually, no, I cant picture it at all.

I just helped him take his snow pants off.
