Topic : Is This Normal Social Discussion

Ok Loretta, dang not often am I genuinely envious of other people!!! But you win! =P

Mother's consisted of me getting up at 6 am and me cleaning house and working. Ah well one day no different from the others. My oldest son called me Saturday and told me happy mother's day, since he had a double shift on Sunday and wasn't going to have time to call. Other than that nada. Now I realize how this has happened....sort of. There was no one to teach the boys about shopping and so forth. My mom would generally just get something and call it from the boys. It seemed silly for me to buy something wrap it up and call it from them. And J's dad could only ever say "you are not my mother"...so he would have no part in it.

They are guys. <sigh> Not even so much as a home made card, ecard, frack not even a baseball card! And believe it or not that oldest son of mine one year when he was very little gave me a treasured baseball card for Mother's Day. I still have it. He is the son that called me. The 'good' son. I reminded my other two sons that their 'good' brother knew the appropriate suck up and they were both Damien siblings....grrrr.

I also declared I would not cook for them on Mother's day, they said they didn't care. All they could do was lay around and moan about how sore they were from paint ball. I fed them cheese for supper. =P

Hugs,

The Jealous Ami

How precious.

Ami you are a hoot once again. lol

My Mother's Day was that my son and his girlfriend took me and his mom to the track. Now I'm not a gambler and it was freezing flippin cold with a driving rain. They did not dress for it and I don't think it's possible for anyone to really. But man was it fun! I have a friend at work that bets the horses and gave me tips and we won some. The other's I always just pick the names. Like HappyPoint. I told Jeremy that I picked that because I was at a happy point in my life. He grinned and placed the bet. You know what? I think he likes me! lol It really was much fun.

My older son didn't even call! Psssshhh. He's in California now and he thinks it's probable that he'll have to go overseas in August. He's never been, he's not married, and he has no kids. Jeremy is just furious about the war and thinks he should move to Canada. If it does happen Jeremy and I are going to watch him get on the plane. Of course I'm worried a tad. I told Jeremy "Why not my son? Everybody else's has to go." Just please to God to be safe. I do trust Him so.

I am back to work. I over did it and my Dr put me on part time. I hate that but y'all know me, gangbusters. And of course I've danced. I just need to stay away from that place! I am so blessed to have that job. It makes you realize when you go back how very much you value doing something you completely love. I've slowed down alto more actually and see these people more like people instead of dollar signs. It's an awakening of sorts. Course I did do the on line class thing with "A New Earth". It's funny guys cos now when you see something you see "it" and then the bigger picture starts coming in. KInda cool to look at life that way.
