Afternoon! TGIF!!!!

[WhidbeyGirl 1]

Glad it's Friday!

I've just had to let go of the situation my son is in and let he and his wife handle it no matter how much it hurts me to see him in pain and just letting her do whatever she wants.

Charles - How is fatherhood?

pretty good so far, nessa's doing all the diaper changes

Huh?!??!?!? This does not sound fair.

she's off work, i'm not.

UMMMM..... you're kidding right??? She is NOT off of work, she's a mom therefore has the the toughest and most important job of all. You at least get break going to a paying job.

and i'm still mowing the yard, taking out the trash, doing the dishes, emptying the cat box.......

Hmmm ....

Mowing the yard - Once a week

Taking out the trash - Once a day

Doing the dishes - Zero times a day. The dishwasher takes care of that.

Changing Diapers - Countless times, throughout the day.

Wow, what's wrong??

I have to confront DIL and set some serious boundaries so I was quite upset last night and irritated. Then I went to one of the hot topics here and a couple of people just angered me with their ignorance and judgement of someone. A bit better this morning but still have to confront DIL later today.

so you have been officially "vj'ed" welcome to the clubhouse

ahem....correction, she is now among the elite group of "un-paid, over-worked,

under-appreciated, no benefits-having, stress-induced, un-celebrated, misrepresented, ill-understood, class of workers around....ahhh-laaaa-"mommy-hood!"

her day is NEVER done and she is always on call and on duty!

LOVE THE DESCRIPTION!!!!

JUST HAVE TO SHARE!!!!!!!!

GOD IS AWESOME!!

I received an AWESOME early Mothers Day gift today!!!! Something completely and totally out of the blue! I got a letter from the state telling me that they had collected over 14 months worth of child support from my ex husband!!!!! I was standing in my kitchen in disbelief - NO WAY NO FLIPPIN' WAY!!!! I quickly got out my recently issued debit card AND OMG the letter was real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There was over 14 months worth of child support on it!!! I was shaking so bad!!! You have to understand I have been divorced from this man since 1994 and in those 15 years I have received MAYBE a total of $1500 in support and that's it. I've never ever had the child support amount raised and we were both college students in an extremely depressed area of the country, so his month amount isn't all that much for 3 kids but OMGOSH!!!!!!!! to get this all at once. I went right on line and paid all the bills I could. I'm going to go to the bank machine and get what I can out and put it in my checking account so I can pay a bunch more, then the rest goes into my "Go to Africa for the interview" account!

Everytime I think about my ex and his lack thereof it makes me want to All I can say is at least its on the books!! I thank god also because he has truly blessed me to be able to take care of the kids despite the lack of child support !!!!

Bad excitement in Lagos. Every month or so I send a package of things to Joseph. The latest one arrived and was being held at central office for "fees" as usual. Joseph went to get it and just as he was near the door, gun fire broke out and everyone ws running. It seems some idiots had decided to try and rob the post office. Joseph was knocked into the ditch by someone on a motorcycle trying to rush away. He needed an xray but nothing is broken. I will be so happy when he is here and out of this madness. He went the next day and managed to get the box so the family is enjoying the lotions, soaps, clothing and a soccer ball for the youngest.

Whidbey that is wonderful news. God will use your enemies to make your prosper.
