Sassy's blog: "Just Words"

A very dirty little fellow came in from playing in the yard and asked his mother, "Who am I? " Ready to play the game she said, "I don't know! Who are you?" "WOW!" cried the child. "Mrs. Johnson was right! She said I was so dirty, my own mother wouldn't recognize me!"

After teaching high school for nearly 20 years, I thought I'd heard every possible excuse for missing homework until one parent sent me this note: "Please excuse Lori for not having her algebra homework. The cat had kittens on it last night."

Judi tried to sell her old car. She was having a lot of problems selling it, because the car had 250,000 miles. One day, she told her problem to a friend she worked with at a salon. Her friend told her, "There is a possibility to make the car easier to sell, but it's not legal." "That doesn't matter," replied Judi, "if only I can sell the car." "Okay," said Judi's friend. "Here is the address of a friend of mine. He owns a car repair shop. Tell him I sent you and he will turn the counter in your car back to 50,000 miles. Then it should not be a problem to sell your car anymore." The following weekend, Judi made the trip to the mechanic. Two weeks later the friend asked Judi, "Did you sell your car?" "No," replied Judi, "why should I? It only has 50,000 miles on it!"

John was furious when his steak arrived too rare. "Waiter," he shouted, "Didn't you hear me say 'well done'?" "I can't thank you enough, sir," replied the waiter. "I hardly ever get a compliment."

For months Bill had been Lynn's devoted admirer. At long last he had collected sufficient courage to ask her the momentous question. "There are quite a lot of advantages to being a bachelor," Bill began, "but there comes a time when one longs for the companionship of another being, a being who will regard one as perfect, as an idol; whom one can treat as one's absolute own; who will be kind and faithful when times are hard; who will share one's joys and sorrows." To his delight, Bill saw a sympathetic gleam in Lynn's eyes. Then she nodded in agreement, "I think it's a wonderful idea! Can I help you pick out a puppy?"

A young Redhead goes into the doctor's office and says that her body hurts wherever she touches it. "Impossible", says the doctor. "Show me." She takes her finger and pushes her elbow and screams in agony. She pushes her knee and screams, pushes her ankle and screams. The doctor says, "You're not really a redhead, are you?" "No, " she says, " I'm actually a Blonde." "I thought so, the doctor says. "Your finger is broken."

A NOTE TO SELF, I don't know what else to do. I am filled with emotions that wants to break free. All raw and intense. I have not let go of everything that happened to me as a child and through the years past. I have tried my best to forgive those that had harmed me and little family. Most of all, the 1 person that really needs forgiving is ME. How can you forgive yourself of all the decision made and choices taken. How can you forgive yourself when you have a chance to help others and yet for some strange reason couldn't. I have given all that I have to my kids and relatives(that speaks to me). All that I ask in return is a thank you or help in return. I am constantly giving money out when I barely have any for my own little family. Is there a thing really called karma. I just kept wondering if there is one. If there is then I wonder what i have done to cause such heartache and trouble. Maybe what I should do is half of the opposite of who I am. Maybe I should not care as much and help as much and then , maybe then, I will have more. But I know myself. I cannot not care. I cannot not help. I cannot be greedy. I may be mean at times and that is only for good reasons. That is if I feel that the other person is being selfish and mean. Now is that wrong!

My emotions are raw at this time but I think its gonna be alrite. My daughter (17) ran and is with her friends. We fought and they are crying abuse. What else am I to do? She is packing what little she wants to carry and yet taking things that belong to me. She yelled at my face and we struggled. Legal adivce for me? there is none that anyone is willing to tell me. What must be done? I wish I know. What I must do? Well......... i am doing all that I can. I let her go with three days of clothes, refused to let her take anything from the house, refused to give money to her friends parents the is yelling abuse. I feel that she would have to learn the hard way. She is now forced to look for work, when she was with me, refused to do so. All that I know is that she is 17yrs and police say there is nothing I can do. Now I am really stress but I have to be strong for my other little girl.

But it feels... soooo...... soooo goood! ! Can a person just feel great/good for no reason? Then have some else shot them down just for being happy? It's just wrong!

THIS IS WHAT I KEPT TELLING MYSELF! There's way too many times I stay up late unable to sleep. Just thinking of you or the mention of your name makes my body shake. Putting my mind on other things don't work. Starting another project, nope, don't work. You fill my every thoughts Every thing that I do, you are in it! I lay here staring at nothing but the dullest white of a cieling, alone. Wondering why you absorb my thoughts, motions, mind. I should be over you and I still feel your presence. I can still feel you, with me, around me, in my blood. What can I do to get rid of all thoughts, emotions of you? Its just not real and this i know. Its just not the same then why complain Its just not me to linger on. I know, I know........... It's just NOT real Not real at all.
