Welp - "hump day" started out great... but ended up on a sour note. Derek told Amanda that Conner better not be sleeping in bed with Amanda and that he knows what hes talking about when taking care of kids. I'm like "wtf"!!! Dereks never watched or taken care of nieces or cousins like Amanda has. Anyways, I hope Derek realizes that Amanda is a wonderful and amazing mom and can do it on her own if she really wanted to, but hopefully they'll do it together as a married couple in a right way.
Poor Trudy... I guess her and another BF didn't work out. She's looking so much for that one guy, but sadly they don't really exist in Middle School. I dunno... I know that these kids get lonely... and they want someone to love em...somone to hold them... but most guys aren't really mature for that yet. Most girls are looking for that "forever" moment to spend with that guy, sure... the guys want a girl they can hang out with, to be together with,, but then they got other plans too.
Conner has become an amazing kiddo. He's starting to move around on his tummy to where he's got the moves to crawl... should be any day now! :-)

Why do some people need to be envied when in reality they're actually miserable?
So I come across an interesting question on Answerbag.
Why do some people need to be envied when in reality they're actually miserable?
It just came to me because when I first meet someone they seem to be this confident person that has a drive through life. Someone that you can really look up to. But when I start to get to know more about them they don't seem to be that person at all.
So.. of course I had to answer this one:
We all want to be accepted...to be needed and wanted by somebody else... to be loved. Sometimes to be accepted by someone we go thru lengths of being someone we aren't. We put up a facade of sorts. You could say the most insecure shyest individual could put up an act of being confident if he/she really wanted to. One things for sure... whether you're rich, or poor, famous or just another "joe off the street", we're all the same inside and have our day to day problems and stresses.
None of us are perfect, where all in this together... this thing called life...we all make mistakes and grow old.. and eventually before you know it, we're buried 6ft in the dirt. Thats why I've never really understood the attraction to movie stars. Sure, they make tons of money and it may appear to be glamorous but they have the same problems as you and me, maybe even more. The only difference is their job places them in front of the camera.
As humans, we appreciate honesty and truthfulness. They're internal values we cherish. If we all acted as ourselves truthfully to others as we really are, was honest and upfront towards one another a little bit more, I wonder what this world would be like?

Wish I could go back in time.
Sometimes I wish I could go back in time. To make things better. To try to make things a little more easier.
To tell Amanda even though she loves him, that Derek may not be the right guy for her and not head out to Hawaii. To tell my son not to get to involved with the games, that thier are soo many more important things in life. To warn Rhonda of what Brandie was doing, so her mom could get involved and stop her from making a mistake. To be there for Carrie, hug her and hold her, so I'd see more smiles and she'd be just a lil more happier. To get more involved with my niece and warn her the relationships are gonna hurt because most guys are way too damm immature in middle school, and to guard your heart more.
Yeah... I wish I could go back just a few years... just back a few years...like maybe to 2003 :-)

Poor kiddo
Welp (I like that word btw!.. if it's really a word!) so it's official. Some guys can be real jackasses. Skylar, a FB friend IM'd me and told me a friend of hers accused of making a fake FB page to get attention. Well... that would've been fine by me.. but he continued on and told her she was a slut and a big fat bitch. She was so upset she was crying, and that got me upset and pissed.
I've never met Skylar or Lexi personally, but they're real good smart kids, and neither of em need that crap thrown at them. I told Skylar, even if she was close to him before, he's a total jackass now. Anyone who puts down somebody like that deserves to be slapped so hard he won't be able to taste for a week. She got a kick out of that and was laughin so hard she was crying. Which made me feel better. These kids deserve so much better. Thankfully they have a real cool mom. I know that sounds weird coming from an ol man like me, but she is! Skylar told me SHE was the one who set up their FB profiles... I mean..what a cool mom. :-)
Anyways - Don't really know whats going on with my other "niece", but we haven't really talked at all this week...she was on FB today, but we only chatted for a few min. Prob another guy has her attention... she'll prob fall for him and gt hurt just like she did with Cody.... sheesh!.. these kids man.
