The Bad: Whine bucket slept in the big bed last night! Called her cell when Logan didn't come home from school at 2:08 p.m..to be told they picked him up at school to go to w/b's to work on a school project. He had all the tools and materials needed at his place to make it. It's a 2 person project...another classmate along with Logan put their heads together to come up with an idea. Making a mini version of the game on The Price Is Right out of wood, nails, ppc pipe, etc. ...Plinko ...Not a viewer for many years now, so this may not be the correct spelling.
Heavy sucker! Much more finishing to be done..painting, decals. Moi likes the sounds the large marble makes as it bounces off the nails on the way down. Don't know how much involvement his classmate will have in this, but it definately takes 2 people to carry it into school. LOL
Can't remember doing anything like this in the 5th grade. Wonder what the girls in his class are doing.
The Good: W/B gets really involved with Jill's sons, ages 28,19,11 presently. From all appearances they have a good repore. He gets down to Logan's level and the two of them banter with each other.She says it's because he never grew up. Moi tends to agree with that when it comes to common sense. Plays football and bought his own glove to play baseball out in the yard with Logan & his friends, makes him steamers and a lobster that they both love eating..camping, fishing, xbox360 games, Rock Star/Rock Band ( even brings his own guitar, cause he bought himself RockStar too . Lots of good I can say about him..... The daily drinking spoils it all. Functioning alcoholic. Even if you don't get wasted every day, but drink every day, in my book you have a problem. Agree?
Jill didn't ask him to come as her guest to her son Ryan's wedding 09-19-09. Her reasoning was she didn't want him in the pictures because she didn't intend to be with him much longer. Here it is 04-13-10 almost 7 months later.
Probably should call him by the nickname he is called...Butchie ...could be a future son in law...Moi has said NEVER in the past, only to eat crow. I shit you not!
The In Between... The calm before the storm... moi baked chicken, made chicken fried rice, 1 baked potato ( hubby can't do rice..so he says ) and the 3 of them came home with the project around 6 with the smell of a few drinks still lingering on 2 of them. We ate, she cleaned up, he went off to participate in his Pool Tournament at the Moose, she stayed in . Moi went to bed at 10, what time Butchie came back , I know not of . Supposedly once you are loose a game, you are out. Hmmmmmmm, 7-10 . He must be the Champion or close to it.. LOL at my own joke.
Both have returned from taking Logan to school. He is watching tv in the parlor, she is on the computer in there. Moi just glanced at the grocery list and see she will be making spaghetti. Jill makes a yummy spaghetti sauce.. Cans of this/that,spices,Colivita olive oil, great meatballs...Gave her a check last night as she does the first part of the week grocery shopping and sometimes I do the end of the week. Like I said before, moi doesn't get out much...2 days ago, moi was embarrassed to hear that picture frame that you put the camera card/thingie into has been in the stores for more than a few years... moi, sighs....This from the kid at 16 who listened to a neighbor and her 1st MISTAKE laugh about a truck painted with the words Excelsior Farms Artificial Insemination on it. Didn't get the joke. Not til years later...DUH! I shit you not!
Need to make a phone call for hubby's med's and call around to see what kind of deal I can get on a auto insurance policy price better than what we are offered this year since hubby's truck was finally given to son in law #9.. The company we have had for years wants almost the same price as we paid for 2 vehicles with them as the insurer of our house. Moi wasn't born yesterday...I shit you not! I'm from Missouri ( the Show Me State now. )Watch out before moi wiggles her nose.... Salem,MA has a witch history. Kapeesh!!!
Looks like moi has got long winded again. Please accept my apology. I tend to run at the mouth. No kidding.... you say!
Learned the name of the mother/son song they danced to ( his pick ) for the repeat picture below..Slyly said , " every time I look at Ryan's wedding pictures, when I come to the pictures of you two dancing I can't remember the song you danced to." " Back Street Boys, The Perfect Fan " were the words spoken.
Moi had never heard it before ( yeah, I live in a cave ) beautiful song lyrics. Jill was " The World's Best Mom " when Ryan was growing up... sigh!
Things to do... no places to go. That's All Folks!
The ramblings of a mom of 9 by her KIDS that are STILL making her climb walls ,even as adults. Said I DO 3xs and I WANT OUT 2 xs. Have learned there is no such thing as a Rose Garden. My motto is Life Is Too Short To Be Miserable. When the bad outweighs the good it is time to shit can em. Laugh with me or at me, welcome to my world.
I AM WOMAN! Hear me ROAR! February 2012
