unspoken ranking
it is amazing to me as my children grow, that I fall further down the list of what is important in their lives. I am glad to see the independence. It means that I have done my job right, but it hurts to be an after thought. My son (14) thinks its funny top make fun of me with his friends. I have spoken to him about it and now he just does it on his texting. I ask nicely for the things that are not clearly mine on the floor, couch, table to be removed and for them to find their proper homes. Fat chance, apparently they are the new mystery of the century. I also can't find their proper owner. I get tired of repeating myself and tossing things so I don't feel like I am living in the next frat house. ( aminal house here I come) I think the hardest thing sometimes is that I have to be both parents rolled into one. It gets really old, old, old. I have been divorced from my ex( one of my better decisions) for three years and have been separated for 4 before that. I see them moving on, and in some cases having additonal children, they are not paying for the ones they have and I wonder, WHEN IS IT MY TURN,? I don't mean the money part, just finding that someone that thinks I am the cats meow. anyway, I am off to walk the dog. He loves me , maybe alittle too much

You could auction off the items, get a little extra cash. Sebastian and Helena still have a couple bags of stuff I pulled from their rooms that have been in the garage for almost a month (and they haven't missed any of that stuff at all).
And 14 is a horrible age for boys. Just wait, you will get him when he tries bringing girlfriends home. You can also continue to embarrass his friends when they come over.
Don't know about turns...look who they are with now. Could consider it karmic justice instead. You'll get a good one, just might take more time. They took the first one that came along.
Max is good, unless he is peeing in the house. Unconditional love from something is lovely.
I would rather toss the crap on the front lawn and watch all the neighborhood kids cart off their stuff. There is a fat lesson in FREE!!! They are spoiled I know that is my fault but come on please.as far as the whole man thing, I know that the good one will come along, blah, blah, blah, but either its me, or its them or they may be more than interested but for whatever reason it is what it is.and for all I know he could be right in front of my face but GOD needs to beat me over the head to get my attention. I am over analizing things and have to stop. having bad pms and I am in a snit. but at least the dog and the cats love me.
