Being a Mom is TOUGH

Carly called me to let me know that after I deleted her myspace account her friend had created her a new one and that she gets on it while she is at her Dad's every other weekend. I couldn't believe it. I had to delete her first one b/c , now get this, an 11 yr. old from her class was leaving messages like you are a SLUT and a Whore.....what the fuck???? They are 11!
Anyway she called to say that her dad saw her getting on and she lied to him and told him that it was her friends' account. He wanted her to pull it up for him and she told him it was her friend's and she didn't know the password. He's not too bright, which I assume is why he didn't say, well just pull it up for me the way you just had it up....oh well. She called to beg me to delete it before her dad saw it again. She said that she knew what she was doing was wrong b/c she was shaking so bad when she signed on.......
It's so hard to punish her b/c I feel as if I have done enough damage to her. She has been w/o a mom that is there for all the school functions...a mom that she had to wear a mask to be around, a mom that to just be able to look at while talking to she had to stand in the window on the porch looking in as I sat on the other side looking out -me on the phone her on a cell, a mom that she had to visit in a hospital.....A mom as far back as her mind can reach has always been sick.

THE POLICE ARE COMING!!!

Thanks to Pop Candy for this tip! I am so excited!


Go ahead, let out a scream: Today it was announced that The Police are definitely reuniting and will perform on the Grammy Awards. The trio -- Sting, Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers -- will open the show Feb. 11. Other plans, including a possible reunion tour, have not been announced.

Here's a link to the last time The Police played together, at the 2003 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

The Police Bring back so many memories to me of my way cool parents. They were seriously cool (I thought). I just love listening to stuff that reminds ms of those days, rockin' out to WEBN's Dawn Patrol with Mom and Dad on the way to school!

Wicked and Weird

Another Song that I have been listening to like crazy! Here is the video

Top Ten Ways to Disrupt the Waiting Room

So As most of you know I am a cancer Survivor. I truly believe that if I was unable to laugh through it, I wouldn't have come this far. I only wish I had seen this list back when I was going to the office 7 days/week

1. Ask everyone around you to do things "stat".
2. Offer free prostate exams.
3. Ask everyone nervously whether they have a "spare catheter".
4. Pop a tape in the VCR of you in an avocado-eating contest.
5. Supplement bland waiting room periodicals with nurse-fetish pornography.
6. Give your best rendition of that dance-floor classic: The Naked Raptor.
7. Hold up sign that reads, "Free chemo in the parking lot".
8. Initiate spelling bee. Be unflinchingly cruel with errors.
9. Leaf through every magazine in the room, shake hands with everyone else and then say loudly, "Jesus, this flesh-eating scabies itches like a mother".

10. Repeatedly refer to the doctor you're waiting to see as "The Trembling Butcher".

HAPPY NEW YEAR

I truly hope that this is a Happy Healthy Wonderful 2007 for my friends, family and me!

My brother is moving back from North Dakota. He and his wife are expecting their 4th baby any day. He was transfered to Wilmington Oh. We are excited for him to get home and I have been reminicing alot lately about him and things we used to do. I was the older sibling, and maybe because of this (who knows why I did half the things I did) I was always testing his loyalty to me. I would tell him I woudl DIE if he didn't help me back onto the couch (even though I was making myself fall off). Once I told him I would die if he didn't drink the Potion of Motion That I had made for him. It consisted of Water, I believe some milk, Every single spice in the spice rack, there was even a Bay Leaf floating on top. Matt always drank the potion of motion, always saved me from near death when I was falling off of the couch to the floor which was a whole Foot Fall...
Once I was going to die if he didn't get into the dryer. We had a dryer that you could sit in and rick yourself back and forth holding onto the spinners on the sides. It was fun. It was lots of Fun, until I closed him in and turned it on....I kept hearing his little yelps for HEEEEEEELp *BOOM BOOM* hhhheeeeeeeeelllllppppp *BOOM BOOM* that was him getting his heavy cotton dry cycle....I was afraid b/c I could figure out what button stopped the drying and the yelling and the *BOOM BOOM* sound. I tried to push the Permanent Press, the Fluffing.....IT CAME TO ME. Just open the door Maggie! So I did and my brother stumbled out a little dizzy a litte flushed by so BOUNTY FRESH.

OVER

I AM OVER THE HOLIDAYS.
We have made it through Christmas and the sharing of each other w/ one another's famillies. We just have to make it through New Year and we will be Aces.....
I sure hope that 2007 has some good stuff in store for the Ledbetter-Lockard Families. My brother and Sis in Law will be having their 4th baby any day now. Hopefully he will be a happy healthy little guy.

Happy Christmas


Here is what I have been thinking today....
Probably b/c I am not working again and I once again find myself thinking about the stupidest of things during the day.
What I wonder about today is, why Do we say Happy New Year, Happy Valentines Day, Happy St. Patrick's Day, Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary, Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving but Merry Christmas? Maybe I will try to change the world one person at a time and start saying Happy Christmas.....though I do like things that are different, so maybe I will just let it remain Merry.....who knows, I have SO much time to think I will probably figure it out before December 25th.
For Fun Try This


Also Seth Sucks b/c he looks at my email to find out what I bought him for Christmas. I shop A LOT online especially during flu season, b/c I am on Immune-Suppressive Drug therapy.....EWWWWWWW I am so Flippin' Mad at him
