Okay!!!!!!!!!!

My son thinks I am his bank, saves his money and spends mine.  The good thing is he does not really ask for much.  I am saving still for vacation come August so it is just annoying me that I can not save as much as I like.  But as always I will get over it I always do!  He also chipped in for it so what else could I do.  A few dollars here and a there is no big deal, but it adds up and as his bank account gets bigger ours gets smaller!  LOL  All part of being a parent, I guess but oh how I would love to see my funds get bigger!  Dream Fran, just keep dreaming.  He just stop by and said mom I need to get chop meat  for some dish he wants to make. I said Robbie there is some in freezer why didn't you defrost it this morning, he says mom that's okay I could buy it not frozen.  DA, why do I need to spend the money when I have it already!!  Kids just do not get it!!  I hope I live to see him when he gets older and sees what I mean so I could tell him I told you so!

Busy day!

Now that is the way I want to be, busy is money and money makes for a good day, with no stress and no issues. Well some but it always feel like a weight is lifted off my shoulders and I get to feeling like me again and not some walking mush brain!  I am sure you all know what I mean, been there and done that feeling! I cannot be the only one feeling these feelings especially with the economy being the way it is and everyone being desperate as all heck (hell). I wait like everyone else and wait and wait for the world to be the way it was and they say things will get better so I wait and wait!  Are we on the same planet, I think not!  LOL  They must be from outta of this world or not seeing what is happening to everyone.   Oh, I forgot the politicians live there with them, who is them. Them is them, I have not a clue and neither does anyone once else, obviously.

Heart is aching!

Hi everyone, today is a very sad day for me, I have learned you do not have to know someone personally for your heart to ache, as mine is.  In the last 3 days there have been 3 deaths in my town and neighboring towns, senseless deaths of two young people and a family monarch. Jose (17 years old) a young man from my town was stab coming from a party, my son knew him and said he was a funny kid, always with a smile, there were some gang members outside as he was leaving a party they had a few words and he was stabbed, he died from his wounds, his future was so brite, up and coming future football star for Rahway High School, and who knows what else life would have offered him! In Linden, Amber was walking home with a friend from Dunkin Doughnuts and was approached by a man who tried to rob her, she was shot and died ( 18 yrs old) Captain of her cheer leading squad and recent HS graduate, and her dreams of being a future police officer gone. As a parent I cannot even imagine what the families are going threw, my heart breaks for them all. In another town of Clark a 73 year old women was found on her couch with her throat slashed, her son could not get a hold of her when he went to the home she was still in her nightgown on the couch with her throat slashed. I have to wonder what is this world coming to.  You can not go to parties or walk the streets and your not even safe in your own home! I have lived in Rahway for 20 years I was raised in Linden and I have family in Clark, all nice towns! As a parent I have watch and protected my child to the best of my ability, as I am sure so have others.  You think okay they will be okay, but there not!  My son was extremely upset to here that Jose was killed. I tell him even at his age which is 19yrs old that is why I call to make sure he is okay!  You never know, you just never know, that they could walk out that door and it could be the last time! It sound horrible doesn't it I know but its that true.  There are no plastic bubbles you could hide yourself in, you are in the hands of the world! Enjoy each other every day to the fullest, be happy and not afraid, we are all handed a deck of cards and we have to believe even with what happen to these fine people, that there is good in this world or we will not survive. Rest in peace to you all,  no one could ever hurt you again!
