and in honor of our own Diana:
A tweaking of Chicago's "Does Anyone Really Know What Time it is?"
Does Anyone Really Know what YEAR it is?"
As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me what
The time was that was on my watch, yeah...And I said
(I don't) Does anybody really know what year it is
(Care) Does anybody really care (about time)
If so I can't imagine why (Oh no, no)
We've all got time enough to cry
And I was walking down the street one day
A pretty lady looked at me
And said her diamond watch had stopped cold dead...And I said
(I don't) Does anybody really know what year it is
(Care) Does anybody really care (about time)
If so I can't imagine why (Oh no, no)
We've all got time enough to cry
And I was walking down the street one day
Being pushed and shoved by people trying to
Beat the clock, oh, no I just don't know
I don't know, and I said, yes I said
(Background)
People runnin' everywhere
Don't know where to go
Don't know where I am
Can't see past the next step
Don't have time to think past the last mile
Have no time to look around
Just run around, run around and think why
(I don't) Does anybody really know what year it is
(Care) Does anybody really care (about time)
If so I can't imagine why (Oh no, no)
We've all got time enough to die
Everybody's working (I don't) I don't care (About time)
About time (Oh no, no) I don't care

BBB,BibbidyBobbidyBoo said:Amen, sister... I'm so with you on that one. I worked when my older two were younger (from babies on up) and I can't tell you how LUCKY I was that they weren't sick often and they tended to get sick on weekends when DH was off on weekends because I sure wasn't off on weekends and my job was such that I could NOT just up and leave work (I was the boss running the place and on one to take my place if I had to leave, no one else who was allowed the key, the responsibility, etc. and it was not a job that I could just close it up to go get my kid if they were sick- it was a restaurant btw). It was a little better when I was over several restaurants and not physically opening/running one store but not much. I was still working TONS of hours each week and on call 24/7 too.
Like I said- very lucky the kids weren't sick needing me to come get them!
I've been a stay at home mom since having my youngest and I'm so glad. Now with 3 kids there is 3 times the chance of one of them needing someone- even when at school. Thankfully still blessed that they aren't sick hardly ever- but you know... they still need things (forgot lunch, spilled food/drink on clothes and need a change, etc. LOL)
And now I get to be involved in all their schools as volunteer, parties, field trips, extra-curricular activities, etc.![]()
Honestly I can't imagine how I'd manage to get everything done now, at this point, if I had to work that same type of job again now... I pretty much do everything with the kids and house (except DH is also involved in extra-curricular activities in the evenings with the kids since now he works day!yeah!) and have no idea how I'd do that AND work that same type of job again. Every day I count my blessings that I'm able to be home to *always* be there for them whenever a parent is needed.![]()

You know- sometimes I think how things work out just right when you didn't think they would. For instance it took a devastating injustice for this to end up happening for me/us. (DH was terminated from his job of 10yrs with "no reason" so we couldn't file wrongful termination here in Texas since no reason was given. They gave him a glowing recommendation to get another job- we know the reason he was fired is because he had received 100% on evaluations the entire 10yrs and was the highest paid supervisor they'd ever had- they had already hired a young friend of the family to take his place making 1/3 what DH was making before they even fired DH! We found this out later) ANYWHO- it was devastating at the time- we didn't know how we'd make it or how he'd ever find a job making that amount of money/etc. It was rough for a few months (including a miscarriage during that time.) but it turned out for the best! The next job he got turned out to be the best thing for us and now he makes triple what he made previously- something we never dreamed could happen.. and he's been there 7+ yrs now and not only that- but this type of job he LOVES! (previous job was supervising people running the same machines that he used to work also- day after day same thing. This job is FIXING everything- from machines to electrical to computer-etc throughout the entire plant and they didn't call him Mr. Fix it most of his life for nothing! He loooovves fixing things. So this is his dream job- the salary part put aside he'd still love it)
And because of that- I was able to quit working and stay home with #3 (and the other two at that point too, ofcourse LOL). It took a few months of despair and stress and worrying about our future- but it was for the best for us. Funny how things work out like that!![]()
Uhoh, I'm rambling.Sorry.
Hey, I'm having surgery tomorrow.. y'all be thinking of me 'kay? I won't be online for awhile atleast... probably... so maybe this long post is just making up for lost time- ahead of time. LOL
I'm so sorry to hear that Virgil! Prayers and good wishes are on their way!!WVMD said:Hi all... Asking for some prayers and PD.... Looks like my dad had a stroke today. I'm driving up to Wheeling to check on him tomorrow - but he's weak on his right side and his speech is slightly slurred....
