OMG.... I haven't heard Y'All in a while now. I just thought of home But even that isn't REAL South. Just the Mason Dixon Line

time to play some Lynyrd Skynyrd I'd say

I know that if I am here and didnt leave my sister a note and say hey hun, she will hunt me down..lol

Love you sweetie.

hey everyone.. sorry haven't been around.. can't stay now either but.. just wanted to give y'all an update..

I'm a full time grandma now.. the azz (daughters ex-bf) abandoned her and their son when he was 5 days old.. it's been a rough few days to say the least.. my daughter is really taking this hard.. but I'm doing everything in my power to make her comfortable and get her mind off the negative.. I'm making all the meals.. doing laundry, dishes and vacuuming & even getting up with her for all the night feedings and taking over whenever she needs me to, so she can collect herself or just take a few minutes to breathe.. it's not easy.. never thought I'd be doing all this again BUT.. I'm loving having her and my grandson here cuz this way.. I know whatEVER she needs.. I'm right here to help.. she's grateful too, she says she's a lot more confident and comfortable being here..

there's a rough road ahead.. got lots of calls to make tomorrow.. lawyers, movers & youth protection.. but somehow.. we'll get thru it..


it's SOO nice to hear from my ((((familia)))) though.. ((marteeny)) ((fine)) ((jemare)) ((dave)) ((mg)) thank you all for.. well.. just being here.. I'm keeping it together but.. it's really hard NOT to just break down and cry at the pain my daughters is being put thru.. while of course a part of me just wants to rip this a-hole a new one!!

love you all VERY much.. 'n

Hang in there girl. I know, you have to do what you have to do when it comes to family. But don't forget you need to take a little care with YOU too (Even if it's only five minutes "me time" here and there

So sad. Young women choose to have sex before marriage, and then when their babies arrive, their boyfriends disappear. The same thing happened to a niece of mine. I do wish there were an earthly way to punish such boyfriends for abandoning their offspring.

thanks jemare.. I actually had a few hours to myself today.. she went with her dad to see her grandma and of course took the baby with her.. I did some chores but enjoyed a nice hot meal and a steamy cup of tea while watching a bit of TV.. now all I want to do is sleep.. they'll be back in a bit so figure.. I'll get to bed soon enough..


Dave.. thank you for your thoughts.. trust me.. I can think of quite a few 'imaginative' ways to deal with him.. but to set the record straight.. they were engaged just prior to getting pregnant and they decided to postpone the wedding until after their son was born.. so marriage was definitely on the table.. he just literally went from hot to cold in 24hrs.. blew us both away..

well.. tomorrows another day and we'll be moving one step forward in getting her back on track.. lots to do but.. we'll get it done step by agonizing step.. *sighs*

with everything going on.. not sure WHEN I'll get around to doing he lawn.. anyone wanna pitch in and help out???

wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday evening.. and an even better MonDAY!

Z Sorry to hear.

There must be a way to salvage this IMO. Have a calm talk with them both. And if that doesn't work, put the Black&Decker cordless drill to his kneecaps? I'd pull not push GL

As for the lawn, you got a riding mower?

thanks (((John)))

as for her now ex.. there's no return.. but maybe that's for the best.. he's already slept with his ex-ex (the mother of his FIRST child)the night he left here.. apparently THEY are going to be a 'family' again.. guess that's one way to beat having to pay for 2 child supports huh.. I had warned her from the day she first brought him home he wasn't right for her.. but how do you tell someone that what they feel isn't right.. we just can't control who others give their hearts to..

yes sir I DO.. there's NO way I'd use a push mower on THIS lawn.. why.. you offering??

Of course I'm offering... I'll be there tomorrow send me your address

What model?

Does it have a beer holder?

ashtray?

and how many acres?

it's a yardworks.. yes to beer holder.. no to ashtray (ya got the great outdoors fer that.. just keep yer butts for the ashtray on the deck)
40,000 sq ft.. so just one acre..

if yer not just pullin me leg.. INbox me

I hope the lawyer soaks him and it's taken out of his paycheck so it arrives on time. Won't replace the daddy the baby needs, but at least some of the financial burden can be easier.

I still say congrats on being a grandma.


Can we brawl and tear up the place now??

thanks (((hippie)))

thats the plan.. have a call into the lawyer already..


go ahead.. just put it right when yer done.. I don't have time to clean in here TOO..

You mean we gotta clean up after our own brawl??

well YEAH.. can't expect me to take care of EVERYthing can ya??

Johnn meant to say bear holder not beer holder.

Be thinking of you kiddo.

What do you mean "We"? I always leave a brawl right after I start it...err...Never mind.

((((((mg)))))) thank you darlin.. you guys have no idea how comforting it is to know I can escape here and find solace in a few brief words.. I can't thank you ALL enough..

(((((dave))))) thanks for the my friend

UPDATE..


well.. my daughter and grandson have a lawyer, a mover, a designated Youth protection officer and peace of mind..

and even MY ex is pitching in it's amazing that no matter our differences.. our kids well-being STILL comes first

we got AWEsome news from the Youth Protection agency too earlier.. the 'father' can NOT take the child unLESS my daughter says OKAY.. and she has NO intention of letting him take the baby until SHE has her court judgement of FULL CUSTODY FIRST.. and grandma's making CERTAIN that she sticks to her guns AND follows through on all she needs to do right now to make SURE she protects herself and her son..

I believe we will BOTH be sleeping better tonight.. now.. if only my grandson would give us the night off.. we'd truly be in heaven


thanks again everyone for ALL your support.. I can't thank you ALL enough.. and (((John))).. you awesome friend you.. thank you for coming to my rescue!!
