I had a little R&R on Saturday and Sunday and took it easy the rest of the week. Plus my son is actually a pretty good person, just a 16 year old and testing his boundaries, I think. Ugh. Sorry I over-reacted.

Kim.... You can't go and scare me like that!! I haven't been on much and then you were gone but now you are back... You are going to make me manic!

(Short trip sometimes!)

So.. I am glad you are back and that you are all better. Stay on the meds and we will all get along just fine.

Did I ever tell you of the time that my 9 year old (at the time) nephew found a lighter and burnt down half an acre of woods? Oh yeah... fun times! And I won't even tell you how I can prove that my family puts the fun back in dysfunctional!!

I am here for you when ever you need anything, just to talk, rant, rave, whatever! You've been there for me in the past and I'm here for you!

Now... don't do that to me again!

Well, I thought something terrible happened, but I guess since I was such an angel, I shouldn't expect my kids to be angels as well!

And one time when my daughter did something sort of bad I felt like when I brought it here I got some feeling that I was a bad parent.

OMG! I just remembered that my brother set a fire in a dumpster once. That's it....it's BOYS. Yep, they're evil!

I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately being a parent doesn't come with a How-To book or special education classes. We do the best we can and what we feel is right.

At any rate, I'm glad to see you back.

Welcome back! Teens can be a handful. I STILL apologize to my mom for the things I did back then. My boyfriend was good though. I always tell him if we get a teen like me we are putting him/her back and trying again for one more like him! LOL

I am so glad your back =) I hope everything is ok.
