Waiting


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.

Let me tell you about something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows; it’s a very mean and nasty place. And I don’t care how tough you are; it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it…”

Peace



I love taking pictures, regardless of if I have an eye for it or not I just don’t know. The colors, the way the camera can pause a moment in time. Freeze it. I can look through my camera and focus on what’s important, see what needs to be seen and only that. I love my camera.

Clumsy


The Daily Post one word prompt for today.

Clumsy, I think of my love life, my relationships with others, my social life.

I have few healthy relationships that are as I said, healthy.

I feel like we stumble through life clumsily just trying to find our purpose, our meaning, our y.

I don’t know the point. You can drive yourself insane asking y

Everything happens for a reason, ok

It’s all about the paths we take, the choices we make. Ok

I don’t really know who I am. 

I want something to believe in. But, how?

Flattery


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!!!!

Letting go


My grandkids are 3 and 1 and they have really really bad parents. I have cut years off my life stressing and getting sick over trying to help. They need to let them go. They r homeless and have been more than not in these 3 years since jr was born. I tried to take them. I just can’t do it myself though. I am not mentally or physically strong enough to raise 2 Littles ones on my own. They don’t think anything is wrong. They don’t see how messed up these kids are going to b if something doesn’t change. I don’t know what to do.
