Waiting

Posted on by queentracey1

Today’s one word prompt from the Daily Post is waiting.

Once again a word I could go on for hours about, but I will not.

We wait forever for our children to leave the nest. Then when it comes we are beside ourselves. I am at this time waiting for the bus to come get my son so he may follow his dreams. As he heads off on the bus to make his mark on the world, I feel like it was yesterday he was born, two weeks overdue and still not budging , I should have known then how stubborn he would be!!!

Pride, fear, sadness, all overwhelming me at once. My other son says he will be back to visit on thanksgiving mom, visit!!??? Thanksgiving, that’s weeks away. Wrong choice of words son.

Even though he was hardly ever home, knowing he isn’t walking in the door anytime soon makes it feel empty.

Now, I am waiting for my baby to come home , to visit.

Flattery

Posted on by queentracey1

First off, I still haven’t figured out how to do the pingbacks thing but I still like to do the daily prompts by The Daily Post. 

You know, I am pulling a complete blank on this one. I see flattery as a way to get something you want from someone, you flatter them. Most times if they are the right kind of person this works well. 

I have a hard time with saying no and most who know me are fully aware of this and unfortunately most take advantage of it. 

 I try to not let money out but, then they use there money for other things and need like, diapers. I give. Some no if they just keep following me around even if I had said no I will eventually talk myself in to it. 

I just have nothing to write about the prompt for today. Lol. Wow. I think this is a first!!!!

When they get quiet 

Posted on by queentracey1

I think, hhhmmmm, she is all quiet,  better see what she’s doing. I turn and am looking for her, on the floor , then she giggles and I walk around the couch some more and see her sitting up on the stand. I said,” what are you doing,” she pats the stand like she does when she wants to sit on something and just says” up, up.” I say, “yes I see you are up on grammie stand, does that look like a seat? “She just smiles. That smile, that little girl. I don’t know what I would do without her and her brother. They add choas but it seems to help with my own choas inside…
