Should I get an allowance now?
Tuesday, August 19, 2008
I'm still smirking at this one. I had the day off today and so the family and I went to our local mall to do a little shopping. We were about an hour and a half into it when the kids starting hammering me to take them for the pretzel I apparently agreed to (funny thing, never even remember them asking me in the first place). But with them bouncing off the walls and my wife s...12 Comments -

When we moved into our new house last year, we were able to paint my son's room a nice blue. We had also picked out our daughter's color back then...bright pink...but for whatever the reason, we just finally painted the room today. And is it pink. Now I'm sure once we get the furniture back in there, some posters on the wall, it will dim the intensity of th...1 Recommendation8 Comments -

Hi everyone,
This is my first entry, don't know what to write but here goes!
After nine months of being excited about the birth of a new baby my niece Ella was born at 38 weeks gestation. This was 5 1/2 weeks ago. When she was 3 days old she was diagnosed with Edwards syndrome. Being a children's nurse, when my brother told me the news I automatically cried with dispair as I knew what ...1 Recommendation -

My nephew was born on Moday at 10.15am, his name is Charlie and he weighed 6lbs 15oz. He is amazing!! The consultant said as far as he can see everything is fine but they have still had to do a few tests just to check.
I'm so happy that its all over now.2 Comments -

I went to see my Grandad last night with my mum and sister and it was awful.
He's just lying here drifting in and out of sleep, i dont think he even knew who we were. My mum said on the way home that she thinks he's giving up now and is only trying to hold on to see my sisters baby being born.

I'm not doing too good at the moment, have been feeling really down about my mum and how she never ever seems to want to contact me and she is always on the phone and seeing my other two sisters.
I really do feel like the daughter that no-body cares about and it is so sad because I know that its true. I've tried talking to my mum about it but she just comes up with some feeble excuse.

Keep thinking that they know something I dont.................you know you just sometimes get that feeling.....?

Today has been a good day. I've been sick so therefore I have had a lot of free time and a lot of time to think. Last night I had a mental breakdown talking to David and I really needed it. It was about three am and neither of us were tired which was very unusual for me. I like to go to bed around ten or so or I get grumpy. We talked and listened to country music on the radio with the bedroom...1 Recommendation1 Comment
