Would you like me to kiss it and make it better?


Hi Live feed readers! It's nothing weird, I promise!

A friend of mine who is a veterinarian took one out on a line drive on a golf course. He walked over, pounced it dead and kept moving. Where is that whistling smiley when I need him?

I'm sure there is a burying a grave emoji somewhere. I'd look for it if my Internet provider wasn't having an outage right now.

I have a feeling I'm going to be a hard- when it comes to that type of stuff as a parent.

And don't get too excited. Some kids don't leave the nest when most do.

Actually, I think my dad would be okay with me living here until I'm 30 because he wants rent.

It is a balance. I picked my battles and time for the battles.

I started out a hard-, and then life, and circumstances, and caring for dying parents, etc. just beat me down.

I can live without rent. I want peace, sanity, and "coffee" in the living room whenever I feel like it.

Yeah, never really found that to be the way I wanted to parent. I just don't have that in me nor did I want my kids to grow up with that kind of parents, it tends to backfire. My Dad tried to be a hard *** but it never worked and it altered how I felt about him forever. I could always count on my Dad if I needed him but a warm relationship doesn't happen with his personality. It was a cycle from his childhood that I broke with my kids. I was never a screamer or one to yell either. Basically I treated them the way I wanted to be treated and would accept nothing less in return. I picked my battles and never sweated the small stuff. My DD beyond neat. My DS not so much. I learned to close his door and I didn't enter often. When he was in college I'd go in there like the white tornado when he went back to school. If it got real bad I'd give him a week 'cause that NOW thing only created friction so I avoided. I always told him I was going in when he went off to school and to remove anything a Mom shouldn't find. It worked for us.

I love your peace sanity and coffee. I now share my living room with the Pup.

I wish my parents would take your view with the room. I've told them before, leave the vacuum an the duster outside my room, I will clean up once a week. Now that I'm at home on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons she's been letting me do that more. In high school it never happened. But still they walk in and complain about what a mess it is and it leads to an argument. No place else in the house is messy, and the room is really only messy when I'm feeling stressed out about something, like school.

I see both sides.

First, I would like to point out that it is much easier to tidy up as you go, than to clean up a week's accumulation of mess.

And second, my kids are not untidy - THEY ARE PIGS.
They've ruined furniture, stained carpet, and darn it, I couldn't find a single teaspoon with which to make tea. This means that 12 spoons are divided between their two bedrooms, along with half of the plates and bowls.

And need I remind you that we have mice? Why? I can't imagine.

I took the OCD/angry (whatever it really is called) test and got 5. Found the photos more amusing, than disturbing. Here are the comments that went with my score:

You’re pretty zen, aren’t you? Well done: You are a very calm human being.

Yah, right, blah, blah . . . but, as the expression goes, that and a nickel won't buy me a cup of coffee in this town! :rolleyes:

@JenniferS how long has milk been sold in bags in Canada? Perhaps because I've only seen milk in either cartons or bottles, I find this oddly fascinating! The bags don't seem like they would be as durable. However, I guess the bags have worked out just fine, or they'd stop using them up there.

Yet, are the bags somewhat cumbersome to use? i'm just trying to figure out how a non-rigid container with a gallon of milk sloshing around inside, would be easy to pour, without it spilling all over the place. (Note: I'm clumsy at times, and I don't think milk bags would be a good option for me. Maybe it's a skill that only Canadians can master?!)

I would rip one, I'm sure, every shopping trip. Even if they are some sort of unrippable polymer, I would do it. In just THAT pathetically spastic.
