Venting

Eeeewwww! I just have to get it off my chest. I consider myself to be a pretty laid-back, easy-going person. So, when I have an opinion about something, I think I should be given the respect to be listened to. I'm not saying that I'm always right, but don't act like my feelings and ideas don't matter because they do . . . TO ME especially! I'm not dumb, so don't treat me like I am.

I'm not going to give any details about what I'm bugged about (you never know who is reading your blog), but I'll just say that it doesn't involve Jason.

Nothing ticks me off worse than having someone else tell me what is best of MY child. That's right, you didn't give birth to them, so you have no right to tell me what to do with them.

I'm tired of sitting back and letting people do whatever they want with MY children because I want to keep the peace. I used to just keep it all in, but I'm done with that. If I have to keep internalizing everything to keep someone else happy, I think I'll explode. So, get used to it, and if that means we don't have a good relationship because I disagree with you on certain things, so be it. I'm not going to have you run my life anymore.

That was supposed to make me feel better. We'll see if it works. So far, I'm still fuming!

Okay, so I'll meet you at the golden arches by your house on Monday at 11:30 to discuss this?

Nanci said...

That sounds perfect! I'll call you to confirm our appointment.

Ewww, people make me so mad. You just tell that you don't need someone micro-managing your mothering skills. You are a good mom. And whoever wants to disagree can shove it up the wahzoo. It is your life, your family, and your kids. They are yours, that's one of the joys of life. Having kids and raising them yourself. Can't wait for you to come up to S.L. then you can vent more if ya want!
luv ya!

Good for you Nance! You tell em! (I'm assuming it's not me because I haven't talked with you in a while, but you never know, you and I both know I am a screw up and I can offend people even though I haven't a CLUE what I've said or done!) I'm sure you've had plenty of offers for you to vent, but if you need one more, give me a ringy dingy, love ya!
