Good morning MENA!! Happy Hump Day!!

Just found out that I need to be in Detroit Sunday for work all next week :huh: I have way to much going on the next few weeks and this really isn't a great time to go, but it will be nice to see my family and friends.

Today is my birthday, my kids decorated the house last night after I went to bed, the whole house is filled with balloons, streamers, banners lol. Poor things stayed up so late so I could be surprised when I woke up in the morning, it was a very sweet and great surprise!! :)

Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Good morning! Happy Wednesday to all!

Happy Birthday Mandy!! What a wonderful surprise you had with all the decorations!

Hope you have a great day with more surprises!!

Morning Staashi!

The rains finally came yesterday.It poured all afternoon...intersections and

washes were flooded. I had to go into downtown Tucson and what a mess. Was raining

so hard my wipers were in overtime. Had hail also. Temps dropped from 100+ degrees to the 70's.

It really was nice to have the downpour, the thunder and lightning. I was soaked going back

and forth from the car, but how wonderful it was to feel that cool rain. Later it was like we had

our own sauna. I was happy for all the flowers, cacti and critters! Needed the rain.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Thanks Staashi & Jeanne!!

Jeanne I'm glad you finally got the rain you've needed. Its rained here the last 4 days, its beginning to get old!!

Staashi, there really isn't anything great about Detroit lol. I was born and raised there and the only thing I miss is my family and friends. A week is the most I can handle there at any one time, after that I start to go crazy. There really is a lot to do there, if your visiting the area, but when you have lived there as long as I have its not exciting. Just like when I went to visit Mohamed in Egypt, we went to the pyramids and it was his first time seeing them too. I said, how can you live here and never see the pyramids!!! He says its normal to them and never thought about going :whistle:

Good morning MENA!!! Happy Hump Day!!! Hey Mandy, Jeanne, Staashi and R and F.. Well I have to got back to aftercare today to find out why these kids are picking on my daughter... now someone took her homework... I didn't raise my child to be a bully or take other people's things or anything like that... I am extremely angry right now and I'm trying to calm myself down :angry: ... I don't want to keep going up here to this place...I told her the next time someone hits her, hit them back... this telling the teacher stuff is not working.. she tried to tell and she told her to sit down... i wanted her to go to this place because they have long hours and music, arts and crafts, homework help and other things.. but @##it, I'm fed up with those bad a$$ kids... they take her homework and throw it around, now they just take it and when I ask the man what is she going to tell the teacher, he says"theft of homework" :blink: that's no different than "my dog ate it"... Autumn is going to face things like this... she isn't happy now and neither am I.. but I can't keep putting her place to place... next time it happens I'm talking to that child's mother... i'm VERY protective of my children.. i don't curse but when I'm angry, well who knows... I hate bullies with a passion....anyway I hope everyone has a good day today... I'm going to listen to my Tears for Fears cds now... I can't wait to see them... I hope this camera works :unsure:

Sorry to hear about the tough time you're having with these other kids. I can completely relate to what you're feeling. My daughter was about 6 yrs old when she was taking the bus to the after school center and 2 older girls had her against the window and were spitting in her face, I of course went to talk to the principal and all he did was talk to their parents!! Then one day I was picking her up from the after school center and the same girls were surrounding her and screaming in her ears, the teacher was there and did absolutely nothing, so I went off on them like you wouldn't believe and immediately pulled her out of the center. I don't raise my kids to be bullies either, but when telling the teacher or another adult doesn't work, sometimes the only solution is to fight back. I had another incident with her a few years ago, and it wasn't getting resolved with the principal, and I told him don't call me when my daughter hits her because I don't care, she deserves it. There is nothing like a mother's rage when your child is being mistreated. I hope your Tears for Fears CD's help calm you down :)

Yea Mandy, I'm trying to Sow the Seeds of Love while they are giving my daughter Pale Shelter(songs by TFF, listen to them).. sorry to her about your daughter's ordeal too...some kids can be, well I just don't know anymore... I pray for my daughters and family everyday.. some kids lack home training though... Autumn can be hardheaded with me sometimes, but she is NOT mean and keeps her hands to herself... this is not good for her education... running away isn't going to solve it.. i hope your daughter beats the ####### out of someone messing with her... i'll help her :thumbs::devil: I HATE BULLIES!!!!
