You would be "stuned" by the would be "Christians" and their tone.

Probably not ... I stop by a "rad-trad" thread every now and then!

"Radical Traditionalist." The really far out, Pope John Paul is the Anti-Christ, Latin-Mass people.

Later, Bill's begging for a game!

Only once have any of my boys tantrummed in public--my son David threw himself, shrieking, to the floor because he didn't want to leave the mall.

I wish I could remember my reaction but I think its been permanently blocked. I know I wanted to disappear--it was horrible!!!

ROFL!!!!!!

We had a cabana at the beach in Queens when I was a kid, and then would spend a week in the catskills every summer until that placed closed. After that we tried NH a couple of summers and then one year we went to Virginia Beach. After that my grandparents moved to the west coast of Florida and vacation was then a given.

"Vacation" is not a big thing to us, we do lots of day trips, as Jax gets older that's sure to change, but for now it works. Especially since we live so close to the water, and now have access to a firend's boat.

Best: Don't read the parenting books.
Worst: Make them keep their room clean.
Most ridiculous: Every child needs some candy now and then.
Most dangerous: Send her to the local public school.

Aha! I know to whom you refer. Thanks for the new term (for me.)

Kisses to Bill and you too! (Pat can have some of my supper, too!)

We don't go anywhere except Walmart and fishing.

The dollar store rules with their birthday bucks.

Once in a while, I get the insane urge to jump on one of their threads and say, "You're all so humble, charitable, loving, peaceable, and truly Christlike ... I've decided to join the Society of St. Pius X because of YOU .... NOT!!!!!"

But I don't ... because I've been inhaling the Molasses Miasma of Niceness, and also I feel guilty about hanging around here arguing when I should be cleaning or finding out exactly what's going on upstairs ...

Have a great weekend! Time for a John Wayne video while we encourage James to sleep!

Wal-Mart!!!!!! LOL!!!!! I try to keep Jax out of there.

We have our list of restaurants where we can take her without offending anyone, not that we go out that often. But we do have certain ones we go at certain times of the year and certain times of the day/week that have games to keep kids occupied, and let moms and dads socialize a bit.

We're done with fishing now until the spring, or at least I am, if hubby wants to take her that's fine - that would give me a Saturday afternoon to myself!!!!

Aw, Punkin! You have so much more restraint than me! I have been waxed, blacked and shellacked by them. I let them whip up on mew so they can feel superior.

You're such a baby-doll! Hugs to you and the chillen!

We never go out to eat, I mean NEVER. I have worked in too many restaureants and know how filthy they are.

D took the kids to Joplin when he bought our hardwood flooring and took them to The Iron Skillet, they thought they had died and gone to heaven.

I was at work and I learned that they were angels. And, I got a set of dishes out of the deal!

Congrats on the baby! My husband used to fall asleep at work, especially after our twins were born. People would go into his office, and he'd be slumped over his desk. He also nodded off in some important meetings. I'm glad his job at the time was very understanding.

That was one of the main reasons a friend of mine decided not to homeschool one of her daughters. Her youngest child was very clingy and never wanted to leave her. We lived across the street from them, and my daughters are some of her best friends. The little girl didn't even want to be left at our house for 15 minutes.

My friend was homeschooling their middle daughter, and wanted to homeschool the youngest for financial reasons. She finally decided to put the youngest in a Christian kindergarten. The little girl is in first grade, and is so much less clingy. The parents are very happy that they didn't homeschool her.

I think homeschooling is great for some, and not great for others. It's nice that we have good choices.

Is that nine months after the election!!!

In the San Francisco Bay area, there were a lot of babies born 9 months after the 1989 earthquake!

Hey, we're going through that all black thing too. It really is irritating. Does it eventually go away?

Have them mow the lawn in the noonday sun. It will go away very quickly.
