Whewwwww!

Today's blog is going to be a little different than my usual bullshit rants about my ex. By the way nothing has changed in that department. Here we go.....

Yesterday on my way home from work I got to thinking about a dear friend of mine who use to be my neighbor. Her and I are the same age and have tons in common. We even married the same type of man. However she choose to stay with her man after his cheating ways and he still drinks like a fish. I cant judge her at all as I have taken ass hat back a few times. She is also a hair dresser and I needed my hair cut in a bad way. So I figured lets kill two birds with one stone, her and I can catch up and she can cut my hair. So I offer to buy a pizza for her kids and get a couple beers and toss her a couple bucks if she comes over and hangs out for the evening and cuts my hair. She totally went for it. You see she has two young kids 5 and 2 and hardly ever gets out of the house and has girl time. When she lived next door it was great we hung out all the time and did this. I couldnt wait to see her and catch up on things. WOW!!!! when they showed up it was crazy. Her kids are wild as monkeys and I guess I never really cared before because we always kept if over at her house and I never cared. They were jumping on beds and jumping all over my daughter and driving her crazy and they ran circles in my house. Basically they destroyed my house. Love my girlfriend to death she tried to keep them in check but she has lost that battle. They stayed about 4 hours and when they left my daughter and I looked at each other and just went "Ahhhh". We were exhausted. My daughter is 12 and has always been a great well behaved kid. Dont get me wrong she has had her moments as all kids do but I could take her anywhere and she never acted like that. Not even in her own home.

That takes me to this point. I was 21 when I got pregnant. I could not imagine getting pregnant in my thirties as most of my friends are right now. Just like my girlfriend from last night. I cant imagine having young kids at this age. No patience at all for that shit. I am happy knowing when I turn 40 my kid will be 18. Who knows maybe thats why her kids are out of control. When I had my daughter I guess I had enough energy to work and still stay on top of her and make sure she did act right. Dont get me wrong I didnt beat her or anything but I also didnt let her get away with any bullshit. For that matter I still dont.

God bless all you thirty somethings that are just now starting your families. I thank the lord I started when I did. I like being one of the youngest mothers in my daughters class and that her grandparents are still young as well. Not that you all are doing anything wrong I just know I couldnt do it at this age.

Wheewww.
