Life's journey is hard sometimes. When you think you know what it is all about something happens and just turns the whole world upside down.
Last Thursday that is what happened. P decided to try to strangle me and I had to have him arrested.
Well I have a friend that came over to help me out afterwards and they have helped me rediscover who I am and where I want to be in life. My eyes and my heart have been opened once again and I can finally see the beauty around me in the world.
I can't believe how much better I feel now and how much the kids have changed in this short period of time. I'm not saying that they are perfect angels but they sure don't argue as much nor cuss as much as they were it amazes me. They really are good kids down deep inside they were just tired of the crap that P was putting them through and were acting out.
Being consistent helps to and not having to argue about the punishments that are handed out is a big help as well.
It just goes to show you that in life our roads are not always smooth and straight but if you rely on God to help you he will. Even in your darkest hours He will be there for you.

stupid people
I let this settle some before I decided to write about it so I wouldn't be so ............ what's the word I'm looking for...........POedI think it is.
I gave the kids my old cell phone when I got the razor the other day and the whole new sims cards thingy so Joe (my youngest) has a phone on him when he comes home from school. I usually get calls after Meagan and him are out for the day to ask can I play the 360 or just to say I love you ( ok the kids can be sweet when they want to be even to each other when they aren't killing each other but that's another story). Yesturday I get three calls from Joe before I am finally able to answer because I have a line out the store again. He is in tears asking where I am and I tell him I'm at work and to calm down what was wrong. He tells me he is sitting outside on the steps and that his father isn't anywhere around. (being nice here) I'm like hold on a second the door is locked and you can't get in? He's like no and he's scared. (he's 10) at this point he's been alone for an hour in the chilly cold with no jacket because it was warm when he left in the morning. I told him I'm on my way home and to just stay put. I call the things(father) phone no answer. My oldest Chris calls to ask me something and I asked him where he was and if he was close to the house. He was olny a few blocks away and he and amber ran and got Joe they took him to the park across the street and let him warm up in the car. Meagan calls she's hitting the roof cause Joe calls her as well wondering when she is getting home so he won't be alone. She calls her father's phone and leaves a nasty voice message like if you left good type message.I can't believe when I get home that I found that person asleep in the room and he didn't hear the phone or the pounding of the door or the crying of the child. Nothing he looks at me like I'm nuts.
the only person he apologizes to is me not his son but me . grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.........
