Brrrrr, Baby It's Cold Outside!



I'm waiting for the ground to become un-frozen so I can get to work. It's hard raking frozen ground. My son put the snow blade on my mower so I'm pretty sure we won't have any more snow this year. Oh well, better safe than sorry.
Baby daddy asked me yesterday what was the origen of "Nip It In The Bud." I said I didn't know but we should Google It. I did and it refers to stopping something early that could escalate out of control. Barney Fife used to say it also, more often referring child raising, "Nip It, Nip It, Nip It,"
I've been thinking a lot lately about other saying's, specifically, Think Nothing Of It," "No Thanks Necessary," "Not A Problem, and I'm sure there are many more on this subject, ever since I told my youngest daughter she doesn't need to thank me everytime I do something for her. I told her I do things for her because I love her and there's no need to thank me, ever. It really bothered her after I said that because she said it was the only way she could let me know how much she appreciates all I do. She also said there are other things I do that really annoy her, like making her feel I treat her like a baby, not being able to do anything right without my input. I told her she is my baby but I didn't realize that's how she felt since her only way to react is to not talk all day or only answering in one word sentences when spoken to. She also gets upset with me when I ask her to repeat what she says because I didn't hear her. She talks so quietly but I don't think my hearing is bad. I'd like her to at least look at me when she talks so I can read her lips if I can't hear her.
She say's it's her hormones that are making her so moody all the time. I just don't think it's good for the baby for her to be moody about anything I do, I just want her to call me on it right away instead of brooding about it. I just want her to join me and "Let's All Dance."

Happy New Year!


Well I made it through another year of being above ground.
I've been sitting in limbo again, not knowing what my future will bring especially about my home. I have to fax the law firm the last bank statements and profit and loss for 2010, but I'm sure it probably won't be the last fax before all this is through. I'm not able to make last month and this month's mortgage payment so I guess that explains why they keep sending a guy our here to hang their number on our door-knob with a note to get in touch with them and then he takes pictures of my house. I hope they have mercy on me this time and lower the payment and the interest rate so I can continue living here.
I'm waiting for my step-daughter and her family to get here to say good-bye before they head back home to Idaho. They stayed in the apartment at the community pool. She took her sister to the navy base and treated her to new outfits for her and the baby. I stayed home and got the dinner ready that she bought, tenderloins and rib steaks and all the stuff for twice baked potatoes and salad. She is so thoughtful and loves her sister very much. She is also diving into the preperations for the baby shower so I'm sure it's going to be way better than I would have been able to give her. I hope the money she spends while she is visiting doesn't add more debt to a credit card because that would make me feel so bad letting her do it. She's very bull-headed and doesn't really care about my protests of her spending so much money. My credit may be very bad because of the bankruptsy but at least I'm not in debt anymore, except for the house. Credit is so over-rated. Instead of getting further in debt, I'd rather be spreading the word of all the health benefits we'd all get if we'd just get off our butt's and "Let's All Dance."
