Em stays in still has fun...

Did not get my laundry done, did not clean my house, did not doing anything of that sort. HJ and I sorted a bunch of our pictures so we could scrap book together. Spent so long organizing pictures didn’t end up scrap booking at all. Then D came in with MadLibs and we played them for awhile. We had an absolute blast. I love Mad Libs and the stuff you come up with adding adverbs, adjectives, nouns and all that stuff.

Now tonight, Im lying in my bed watching Desperate Housewives and it goes to commerical and we all know how Em can’t focus so I look over and notice my husbands alarm clock is brightening and darkening. Hmm interesting to me. Kind of like a shiny object but different. So what do you think I do? If you guess played with alarm clock from across the bed, you would be right.

Putting my hand in front of my light causes the display to darken, moving my hand up causes the light to shine on the display causing the display to lighten up again. So how long do you think this kept me busy? Come on… it kept me busy for more than five minutes. Okay, seriously, Im still playing with it now and again. Like magic but different.

I had all kinds of thoughts and plans for my future. Dreams of the life I'd lead and the places I'd travel. But dreams are simply mist, blown away by the winds of reality, and as a well-known movie of our  younger years taught us, 'Reality Bites'. Reality is a bitter bitch.

Monster Juice Spray pussifying our children?

Today someone posted a cute little story about a pharmacy that prescribes a Monster Spray to children that have monsters under their bed. They spray the spray before bedtime, under their bed and it makes all the monsters go away. A little six year old girl used it three times before she was sure all the monsters were gone. I find this story absolutely adorable. I think it's wonderful that this pharmacists does something so kind for small children with big imaginations. I think a little magic in this world is just what a lot of child need. The response from one woman totally had me stunned. She said it's crap like this that is pussifying our children. Really? Then she went on in another reply when asked what one has to do with the other to say her daughter was bullied and what are they going to make next, bully spray? (They do make a bully spray, it's called mace!)  Her daughter had to graduate early because of bullies. Okay, what does her daughter being bullied have to do...

Sometimes..

Sometimes the emotional pain becomes too much to bear. Sometimes the emotional pain feels like it's going to consume us. Sometimes the emotional pain is so overwhelming that we need a physical pain to release it before we lose ourselves and who we are in it. Not everyone can understand this, I get that. Not everyone can look at someone with scars that were self inflicted and say, I see your pain. Sometimes, we hide those scars under our jeans so no one will notice. It's not for attention, it's for release. Sometimes we dull the pain with alcohol, sometimes we dull the pain with drugs either prescription or illegal. Sometimes we smoke too much and talk to loud. But we find our release to keep us alive. We are survivors with our scars to prove it.
