She will never learn to be her own person if you and DH always bail her out when she's in trouble, she was old enough to run off and get married right? She is old enough to know what she's doing and to know better, but like you said till she hits bottom nothing is going to change

I know. I know that DH and I have bailed her out too many times already and then I wonder if that contributed to the way she is.

you have to remember you have wonderful loving boys at home who need you too. Look at how great they are Kathy! If you and DH were the problem woudn't you see it in them too

The boys are just totally different from her. And we've raised them all the same so it's hard to understand how the boys have a strong work ethic, are so considerate of everyone else and put themselves after everyone else, and know the value of a dollar and know how to save money and she's totally opposite! I always try to tell myself that if it was DH and I then the boys would be the same as DD and they're not. I guess it just comes down to when one of your own kids is in trouble or not doing right or failing or whatever, as a parent you always tend to feel it's your fault. I'm trying to get over that feeling but it just isn't easy.

Thanks for all the support!!

I need a nap

Me too!

DH is pressure washing the front porch and the deck. It's so hot out. I'm tired just watching him.

I've had a jingle going through my head all day...


and I've been singing it to DH....


and I think it has worked!























...let's do Outback tonight!

 

[trappednabox]

Mmmm...that sounds soooooo good Kathy! It's been forever since I've had outback

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

I can't sleep!

It was really good!!! I had the Outback Prime Rib. DH had the regular 16 ounce prime rib and Matthew had the regular 12 ounce Prime Rib. We had Matthew get the 12 ounce instead of the 8 ounce so he could bring a little home to share with A.J. and Andrew since they didn't want to go. But the little pit ate it all! We couldn't believe he ate all of it! We also got a bloomin' onion and at least we saved a little of that to bring home for A.J. and Andrew.

I think I'm going to try going back to bed.

I forgot to say that I was last. Gee, does that still count that I was last all night but had forgotten to say last!

Good morning. I only got about 2-1/2 hours sleep and I feel like a zombie. But I had to get up to run to town and get a few things from Lowes that we ended up not stopping to get last night, getting some groceries for a lunch cookout and then on the way back from town getting a load of mulch. We used a pick-up full yesterday and will still need one more!

Our friend is coming over today to help DH with guttering for the front of the house. He has a gutter machine and he ordered all the stuff and they are going to make the gutters and get them put up today. We're so lucky to have such good friends to give us a hand with our home projects!! We've been talking about getting the guttering done for about 10 years now and we're finally getting around to it! The gutters are going to be forrest green.

Close to lunch time his wife is going to come over and we're grilling out for lunch.

Then when the guttering is all done and our friends are gone we'll get back to finishing up the pressure washing and mulching! Whew - I'm gonna be very, very tired today.
