Polly, my brother did the same thing. When he turned 18. I explained to my mother that she really couldn't blame him. I got lucky this year, but I'm almost certain that I won't make it through college without being in LOADS of debt. Then there's grad school. If I though I was even close to being fit enough to join, I'd probably be there now.

My brother gained 12 pounds in muscle after the first training session they sent him on. Don't you want your son the be able to pick you up and carry you around in your old age.

so when i woke up, i had an im from the boy, but he didn't call cause he didn't want to wake me for like... the 4th day in a row. i can't decide if i think it's sweet that he didn't want to wake me or if i want to hurt him for not waking me. what can i say... i like talking to him as much as possible. :-p

ok horribly depressed this morning. my eldest son has decided to enlist in the military. On one hand I am oscillating between proud and petrified. On the other, and yes i know I am being horribly selfish, i am upset because he was supposed to be my childcare when I start at UNO next fall. With him leaving, all my plans are shot. i still have a year to get it figured out but daycare would cost me $350 a week and there's no way we could afford that. my mom has said she will move out here and watch my kids but i'll believe that when i see it.

ok weird, i hadn't posted that yet. did you guys bombard myspace this morning or what? he hasn't decided what branch he wants to go in yet. I don't blame him either, it's just the unexpected timing of this. we had already made the arrangements with him for babysitting so now i have to start over.

also, my oldest, the 18 year old has decided to join the military. he's planning on heading back to denver in a few weeks to take care of some business there and then he's enlisting. i'm oscillating between proud and petrified.

You did post it already.

Ha Ha, it's fine. I'd make an age joke, but last time I did that it didn't end so well.

I only said to be careful, Soapy, not afraid. Not very, very afraid. I never said that.

*steps to the side* i don't think so soapy. you're on your own on this one.

Hey middi!

[midnghtdolphin]

Posted: 7/30/07 at 12:08pm

hey deet. how are you?

[D2]

Posted: 7/30/07 at 12:11pm

I'm on a cheerful mood, I don't know why because I'm overwhelmed at work, but somehow I'm taking it all in stride.

I know what you mean, btw, about calling, not calling thing with the boy. They're damned if they do, damned if they don't, aren't they?

[midnghtdolphin]

Posted: 7/30/07 at 12:18pm

yup, pretty much. i mean, it was sweet that he didn't want to wake me for the 4th day in a row, but i can sleep whenever. i want to talk to him dammit! lol. sorry. it almost makes me miss him more though, to know that he was online (mind you, i think i went to sleep all of 5 min before he got on which is even worse) and that i missed him twice in one night. but whatever. i'll talk to him soon, but yeah. he feels bad waking me up and i'm like i really could care less. i can sleep whenever.

I want to offer words of encouragment to all of you, but I have no clue what to say. So, um, sorry. I love you all!

people call me ALL the time when I'm sleeping. I just don't answer the phone.

[D2]

Posted: 7/30/07 at 12:37pm

I turn my phone off between certain hours, and despite the ability to do otherwise I also turn it off when I am charging it. Drives a certain other poster who has disappeared absolutely crazy.
