I still have them. But...they're better for laughs than just about anything else.

But there are some good bits. I plan to extract those eventually.

I am 21. I had a big decision to make last year: after I got out of college, should I move with my parents to NC, or stay in GA and go to the advertising school I wanted to go to? I didn't really have the money to go to the school anyway, and with student loans...I'm afraid of debt. I chose going with Mom and Dad. I have my own downstairs pad, so it's not too bad.

So, still out of college, I started looking for a job around here. I did not find one, and ended up having to work as a pizza delivery boy (you think YOUR gas bill was high :)

Recently, we went out of business, but my manager there is getting me a much better-paying office job. Doesn't start till the end of January, though. I hope to be out of here by maybe next April or so. We'll see. Life never goes how you plan it, though.

LOL! Yeah, I was so serious then. Now, I don't have a single thought in my flighty little head. I like classic clothes, but for my casual clothes I wear jeans, etc. My girls are always getting on me for wearing my clothes too tight. They are not tight, they just, well, um......

Shooting them is the most humane way of doing it.

Sorry about your job. Hope the new one is better.

We built an apartment in our basement for our middle daughter. When she moved out, the younger daughter got married. They lived in the apartment for 5 years and had a son during that time. We did not charge them any rent or anything. They saved enough to build a house. Right behind us!!! (family land)

I made it a point never to interfere in my kids' lives after they grew up and finished college. They are adults, so I treat them that way. I wish that they would do the same for me! How did they get so old, anyway? I am younger than they are.

As I was reading your post, it sounded like a disaster in the making. LOL! I'm glad everything is working out (due to your treating them like adults).

They are not tight, they just, well, um......

I totally understand. They "enhance" your good points, right? Tell your girls you are NOT going to dress like a frump. Catch you later -- time to get things done for the work week.

LOL! Thanks. For some reason, my kids WANT me to be a frump. LOL! I guess I embarrass them or something. I am not your typical "granny."

Seriously, though I LOVE '70's music.most '60's music, too. I also like electronic/new age music a lot.

I like a lot of variety in music too. I have a thing for "bubble gum" music of the 1960's and 1970's, so when you brought up Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods, I thought it was the coolest thing. B-) When I bring them up to most people, I got a lot of "South Park" style stares. I like a lot of 1980's European style techno too, especially songs like "Never Ending Story" by Limahl. I also like a lot of Mort Garson's songs, he pioneered the use of the Moog Synthesizer in the early 1960's to the 1970's.

The only music I generally do not like is rap, hip-hop, and so on. I do like soul music though.

If Walmart sold pistols, it would probably be Chinese import copies of Raven .25 caliber jam-o-matics...... :)

This job will pay somewhere between 20-25,000 per year, if I get it. It's a start. The most money I've ever made is 170 dollars per week!

Your nice to your kids. I'm an only-child. I'll be the "Little Baby" for the rest of my life to my grandparents, no matter what. And my Mom can't stay out of my business, although I have nothing to hide, really. She's obsessed with me finding a girl. She sets me up with horrible mismatches, then monitors and watches over everything I say to them. Then acts disappointed when it doesn't work out.
