things that i wonder...

I have several things that i wonder... and there is no end to it, the list just keeps goin on and on and on.
1.) Have you tried the Salsa Verde Dorito's? They are DAIRY! On the back of the bag, in large bold letters CONTAINS MILK. Seriously, who would of thought? Should i refrigerate after opening? Or just eat the whole bag so they don't go bad.
2.) Skittle Vodka... If I use the Crazy Cores Skittles, will that give my vodka two flavors? Watermelon on the inside, strawberry on the outside?
3.) Why do some people think that if i don't answer the phone at 6:05 am they must call again... 6:06 am, 6:06 am (yeah, two times in less than a minute), 6:07 am and 6:08 am Just because you wake up with the chickens, I DON'T WAKE UP THAT EARLY... EVER!!!
4.) Why is it when you feel like crap, EVERYTHING goes wrong, or everything needs to be done, and there's a rush to get it done.
5.) Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup? seriously.

something that should of been said long ago

I am sick and tired of all the bullshit! I have gone out of my way to keep Billy informed of what is going on in the kids life. But can he pick up a freaking phone? GRRRR... They are old enough to understand now and he doesn't give a damn! They see that he doesn't make an effort. He NEVER calls to speak to them. I've called several times to discuss their activities and how they are doing in school. But it doesn't matter. He still won't make an effort. He has excuse after excuse about why he can't call. He has excuse after excuse why he can't be at whatever is going on. Mind you we don't ask for much more than child support, just help out when things get to be a bit much. And this is just the tip of the iceberg - we live only 35 miles away, he works only 15 miles away, but yet he can't come visit for a few minutes? We have told him about school parties and functions, scout stuff goin on, but yet he can't seem to take time away from whatever is so important to come see any of it? I try not to complain to much about such things but I have had ENOUGH!!! He has one excuse after another about everything.
For over four years, i have tried to get him involved with the kids, four years, i have listened to one damn excuse after another, four years, i have heard how things i am doing are wrong, well, let's shed light on some things, first off, it is i, not you who take care of the kids day in and day out, it is i, not you, who venture to each and every doctor’s appointment, counseling appointments, school events and everything else that goes on, it is i, not you who have t watch and listen as the kids are upset, mad, aggravated and anything in between. I understand there is work to be done, but damn it, you should make time for your kids... oh, but wait, if it's not convenient, it just isn't going to be. This is damn ridiculous. You are never there and always have an excuse as to why you can't be. As for Kayleigh's recent doctor’s appointments, did you go? hmm, no, you didn't, have you dealt with ear infections every two or three months? hmmm, no, you haven't, have you been here when she is is great pain due to her ears? hmm, no, you haven't. Have you been around for Tyler's counseling sessions? hmm, no you haven't, have you been around for his doctors appointments? hmm, no you haven't, have you dealt with his headaches for hours on end? hmm, no, you haven't. So, should you judge me and my decisions as to what's best for my kids? Hell no you shouldn't. I have thought it over, talked it over, and thought over it some more, and yes, i do think my decision is the right thing. If you don't like it, tough shit. i am not going to sit around and let the ear infections keep on and eventually take her hearing. become involved in what all goes on with them. I am tired of trying to get you involved. I give you dates each month of things the kids are in, and you have one excuse after another why you can't come, or why you can't call, and i'm the one in the wrong? i think someone needs to take one long look in the mirror, and do some serious rethinking. i am so infuriated right now, i am sick and tired of the same crap, and the kids are not far behind me, they too are tired of the same crap. If someone who isn't biologically related can take time off, and take time for them, you would think someone biologically related could do the same... but apparently it's asking too much.
ok, i think i'll step off my soap box now, i just needed to vent...
