I got a ticket 4 days before Christmas for having an expired tag (had planned to get it taken care of when my income taxes came in - my fault, but crap, I've been broke the whole year!).  So I got the tag renewed the next day because the cop said they would be looking again after New Year's to write another ticket (have seen that my city has had a 25% increase in tickets written in the last month - like they need the revenue!).  So, all I had for my little one was a PlayDough activity center under the tree $15, and a pink umbrella and some candy in the stocking from Santa.  She was happy, though.

I've had that **??@$ ticket next to my monitor to look at it every day for the last 2 months to remind myself to go before the judge and ask for an extension of paying it until Friday when my check comes in.  I have literally been living paycheck to paycheck, sometimes with only $8 in my account in between.  Well, tomorrow I am scheduled to go to a different court to get a child support order (money I'll never see anyway), and I picked up my big orange folder to put my income tax return in it to take with me.  Guess where I put it?  Yup, right on top of that **??@$ ticket.  Yup, I forgot to go to court last night.  Was being bombarded with emails that my accounts could lose power due to the storm and all MTs needed to empty the systems.  Now there is an arrest warrant out on me.  I talked to a clerk at court and he told me to stay indoors until Friday, then come in and pay to have the warrant removed, then I can get a new date to pay the **??@$ ticket. 

Well, I have to go to CS court tomorrow, but at least it is just a short hop onto the interstate and then quickly out of my city limits.  If I can just make it till Friday, pay the warrant, maybe my karma will start changing.  For the last 15 months, I feel like I am the little kid on Charlie Brown that walks around in a dust cloud.  I have seen the inside of more court rooms in the last year than most people see in their lives with getting custody of GD.  I must have done something really nasty to have this kind of karma for this long.  Oh, well.  They say when you're down, the only way to go is up. At least paying to have the warrant removed is less than the ticket and it gives me another month to come up with the money for that.  I'm so broke, I can't even get drunk to forget my troubles!  Maybe my luck will change by St. Patty's Day   

p.s.  I had to edit this message because I used the word s-t-u-p-i-d to describe that ticket and the website wouldn't let me use it, thus the **??@$ symbols !! 

Just wishing everyone a happy Monday!  Is it Monday already??    I worked all day Saturday, but was off yesterday.  Whew.  Just stretching the old back muscles a bit and then getting back to the keyboard.

I was lucky enough to snag a pass to Dancing With The Stars on Monday!  Wow - what a totally fun show that is!  (I am SO addicted!)  The dancing is even more amazing in person than it is on TV - those people are unbelievable.  I just wish I could go again NEXT week, as well.  I think any of the 4 couples could've won, and was sad to see Ian have to leave. Still, my money is on Apolo! 

(BTW - it really is TRUE that televison adds 10 lbs... everyone there is considerably thinner than they appear on camera!)  

I first heard of it today, they're blaming it on the cost of gas to deliver mail.  At least this time I won't have all my bills returned for a stupid 1 cent more postage, like happened last time.

Off until Monday afternoon -- Happy New Years

Off until Monday afternoon, have a friend coming in on Saturday (female) and for the first time since I have been single, over five years, going out dancing and having fun on New Years Eve.   See if this old lady still has it in her to have a night of fun.   Not sure if I remember how to dance.  Hope you all have a Happy New Years.   2007 is going to be a good one for me.

why is everyone so mean on a monday? geez, how would you like to be shut up in a house never to go
i had a dog get attacked and killed about a month ago by another dog in my own fenced back yard. never seen the attacker dog before in my life nor again since the incident. you can't always protect your pets just like you can't always protect your children, but yet you have to give them some freedom. would you lock your children up in the house never to go outdoors because of the violence? i think not. the OP has a valid point and her SIL is being extremely disrespectful and careless with her dogs.

to the OP, i would tell MIL that she is responsible for those dogs while they are in "her care" and to do whatever it takes to keep them off your property. you have the right to protect you home, your property, and your animals. i'd get a bb-gun and shoot them until they learned to stay out of your yard.

It's Monday...What's for dinner tonight folks?

Cat here....Been wondering what you've all been up too.  Been kinda lost as well considering my computer died over a month ago and was finally resurrected this morning.   

Tonight's fare will be venison pot roast style (about 4 hours on top of the stove) with string beans and potatoes side, hot water cornbread and strawberry jello for desert.    Cat

The cat happened Monday. Toilet trauma was Wednesday.
I think I'm fine...just accident prone this week.

I went to a strawberry pickin' farm Monday. The owner sm
told our large group of homeschoolers (both moms and dads) during our tour that he had to learn the hard way that women make THE GREATEST strawberry planters. He said he hired a bunch of men one year and that was the last time he did that. He said now they are all women - they take their time, take pride in their work, and just do something for the soil where he has huge, gorgeous berries whenever they plant them.  All the women there broke into applause. I thought it was so funny.  I just liked seeing a man actually admit to something like that.....

Lucky Gwyneth!!! Go ahead, make your Monday :)

This will date me but
I won 2 dance contents actually, one in high school on a local television program and I won a sweater and around age 18 I won a dance contest at one of the night clubs (yes, that is right) around town and I won for dancing the Peppermint Twist and that is the name of the bottle of liquor I won, the Peppermint Twist and heavens knows who made that! If I were able to dance as much now as then, sure would keep that weight down!

Anyone have an up-to-date
Copy of the book "What To Expect When You're Expecting" that you'd be willing to give away? My DIL is pregnant and I think this would be a great resource of information for her. I'd pay to have you send it to me...Thanks ladies!

I'd never date at my age.
I'm 49. If I got involved now with a man, you're looking at taking care of someone in their old age. I don't think it's worth giving up my freedom...in exchange for what? Cooking, cleaning after someone, having to be responsible to someone. Ugh. Been there once for a long time. No desire to do it again. At this age, men are only looking for someone to take care of them.

I'll stick to hanging out with my kids, grandkids, and with the girls.

Help with play date

About a month ago my I took my 5 yo  swimming and invited one of her friends and her mom.  The two girls played for a good 2 hours until another one of dd close friends showed up so she started playing with him.  Well this upset dd little girl friend and she came to me saying "dd won't play with me. make her play with me. "  I called dd over and said that we invited suzie over so introduce her to Joe and you all three play together.  This just upset dd and made her mad at suzie.  I was not sure what to do but suzie's mom said it was time to go anyway so they left.

Well, just yesterday MIL took me and dd golfing.  DD met another friend and together they played.  The went across the street to the playground then a friend of the other little girl showed up.  Well, the other little girl dropped dd and started playing with her little friend.  DD got upset adn said sandy won't play with me.  I said well, I image you're feeling what Suzie felt when Joe came to the pool.  DD just sat there mad.  MIL said Introduce yourself to the other little girl. DD did not want to do that.  Then MIL said well lets go play on the slide.  DD went and played but she was still upset, she walked up to Sandy and said "I am not playing with you anymore not even at school."  Sandy replys, "That is okay, I have a sister to play with."  MIL told dd not to talk to Sandyl that she wasn't worth it and out loud too.  (Luckily Sandy's parents were not there).   I just said Oh MIL.  I started talking to Sandy.  I asked her if she was ready for school.  Sandy and I had a nice little conversation.  It kind of broke the tension between them.  I am sure all is forgotten by now. 

I was just wondering how other parents handle these situations.  TIA

only if he is rich.......but really I would not date - sm
a guy more than a few years younger. I did date a few guys younger 2-5 years which I realized later was a big mistake (in my 20s). My DH is about 7 years older and works out well.

---

Did you date very long?
Since you are afraid to talk to him alone, see if you can get him to see a marriage counselor with you. If this marriage is going to end, the sooner you can move on with your life the better.

I have a standing breakfast date...
every Thursday morning with 3 friends.  Weekends are mostly family time.  My oldest son always comes home from school on Friday night, so we Netflix.  This weekend, we were supposed to play paintball, but it doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate.

Yoohoo? MT who had date with doc? Pls. share! NM

You can probably make-up a date to see a lawyer
because marriage is based on truth.  Just tell him you are done!  End of story.  If he catches you in a lie, that could spell trouble.  JMO.

not a date thing but still embarrassing
while at a small get togther at a friend's house i was trying to sneak up on the host and take a surprise picture of her all evening. I finally tried to seize a moment when she had her back turned to me. Looking into the camera and concentrating I crept up on her quitely...doing soo well until...I forgot she had been loading dishes and walked into and fell onto the open dishwasher door. Everybody laughed so hard. needless to say I didn't get the picture!!!

they have a date list on the IRS website
If you go over to http://www.irs.gov you can check on when you should get your money. They also have a spot somewhere on there where you can check to see how much you should be getting. You should get your check based on the last two numbers of the main social security number, the bigger the number, the later your check will come.

On a date at the drive-in and got in the wrong car
Went to the bathroom and when I came back started to get into a car. Kept wondering why my friend who was also on a date in a car 2 cars away she and her boyfriend were waving their hands wildly yelling no, no. Opened the door and sat in the seat another girl was occupying. Started yelling at my boyfriend cos I thought he had picked up another girl until they said "whose Steve?"

Drive-ins.....okay that goes back to the 70s.

No, to date one can CHOOSE one's treatment.
nobody can force a treatment on you.
The mother has the son's trust, otherwise he would have stayed with the father.
Obviously the father wants to subject the son to this chemo, therefore mother & son ran away.

This boy is going through he** durin this chemo treatment and his mother looks for a less aggressive, accepteable one.

I hope they make it to Mexico...

Hoping you had a great 1st date and wondering if you are still on it???
Details! lol

Our neighborhood sets a date each year for
a yardsale. The neighborhood is still growing, so we usually have a really great turn out. We haven't participated in a couple of years so believe me we have the "junk" to get rid of. I just wish we would do this at the beginning of summer for a little extra spending $ for vacation.

Mine is four yrs younger, but no way would date some young
