I was on here all night, thought for a moment that I saw the gov on here but alas, he was gone when I refreshed.
I went to bed about 5:00 this morning and my dog woke me up before 7:00 having to go outside. Actually I think he just wanted out of his kennel and the freedom to mess with the much smaller doggies - although they were all in bed with one of the many bodies we now have living in our lovely home. I'm thinking about making this house into a bed & breakfast, at least that way I know they will be leaving when they run out of money -  I love my kids with all my heart but it is also nice when it was just
Parke, mana and myself. As parents we do our best to raise our kids and when they decide that its much easier to live at mom & dad's then it is to get
a job to support themselves - well I have a bit of a problem with that. I did however finally put my foot down and made them go get jobs. The deal was they
had last week to search, they had to leave by 10:00 a.m. and were not to return until either they had a job or 4:00 p.m. And my strategy worked because they
got jobs and actually feel good about themselves once again.
I don't know, maybe I'm a mean mom but I think if they aren't going to school to better themselves then they need to get a job and become self sufficient. We all have down times when we struggle, but when we choose to NOT help ourselves or support ourselves then we lose our sense of self pride. With out self pride what do they become? I'm not willing to find out so I made em go get a job. We were suppose to take Amanda sledding/tubing today but Parke got up early and went to pick up his 2 new snakes (he wasn't suppose to get them till next week end). So they have been playing with and setting up the homes for them all day. Now they are out getting little gadgets that they need to make the newcomers happy and healthy. WOO HOO!!! That's what I want, MORE SNAKES!!!! It's not all bad though, they are really friendly (except for one) and actually gorgeous critters. So I'm home alone, well not alone I got all my animals to keep me company & bother me (which is what this extremely large dog does most of the time but he's finally asleep). I'm just chillin, enjoying the silence because everyone is either at work or out taking care of whatever. I probably should go down and finish bailing water out of my basement but I'll wait a bit as its pretty dry for now...I'm sure in another couple hours it will be bailable once again. I'm getting tired of it, but it has done wonders for the ole biceps!! I'll be able to compete here soon - HAHAHAHA Hope everyone has a good day today. I know I'm enjoying myself. Might even take the big guy for a walk when he wakes up. But its too cold for that 
Rho, my email is scroogerocks@yahoo.com

Yeah well I understand work and supporting oneself, so I can relate. Personally, it's been hard to find a job............yep I admit I have been searching
for (any) RN job.......but it's been disappointing at best often. YEP i understand I went away to something different than RNing but still it was in the
healthfield arena................and I don't regret nor am I going to hide that I did it meaning if a nursing job I interview for cannot handle what I did
and why, then maybe it is not the right RN job for me. After all, NOT telling them what I did doesn't make sense because what reasoning do I use to
explain why I didn't work then for 18 months??? Someone told me I should think about not addressing PA school, but I don't see how that will help
because I do have to explain the time out of school........and I am NOT ashamed of what happened. I refuse to make it sound like it was some mistake, though I
know what I will say, I also know what not to say (provide more than they need).......I went, I tried, it didn't work, and go from there.............
I DO have an RN job interview this Monday as I said and in April, and I oh so hope I land the job in April, though it'd be nice to have something now rather than nothing, but I don't know how it will be to accept something, then turn around and dump them in a few months IF I get the other one..........................but I'd prefer to not count my blessings until the occur anymore...........................though I have faith and hope in myself, God, and the future still, because if you lose sight of YOU and your dreams, you lose sight of so much. AND no, Trac, I don't think you are a mean or bad mom..........I just read in the paper today that as the ecomony goes down, more and more students return to college/school, especially........GRADUATE school. As I said, some PA students who got in my program stated the ONLY reason why they wanted to be a PA is the money they will make once a graduate and that's it.............okay.............SO..................whatever......... AND there are always things that change, but I am waiting to see.........I refuse to give upon me........maybe one day your older girls will head to college.............don't ever think it can't happen. Sometimes things don't always work like we want in life, maybe not the first time either around, but a 2nd time, it all clicks......................and I know there are real reasons for things that happen, and I don't believe anymore it's just to make us feel miserable and sad and hurt, etc about how bad things went..........I don't................ so, I guess have hope for tomorrow because life willllll get better. Ibelieve that for me.......
