friday
wasted my day today...got some work done and then spent a shitload of time going thru folks blogs.....ya'll know who you are cause you're all listed to the right of this. :::folds arms with the mad face::: not that anyone ever lists me on their blog :::shrugs:::: guess i'm not interesting enuf huh.
I posted a link to the right for the new blog I started to post pictures of my art that everyone has asked for...
it's not the recent art class pic, which I will mysteriously refer to as bunny but some of the other stuff I've worked on privately.
I dont have pics of everything so bear with me as I log them in, I'll mention in the blog when new ones go in.
Peter Pan (my next door neighbors son) did well in school today, for like the first time since school started. He's not a bad kid, just for some reason would rather draw than do his work....
Jessica on the other hand seems to be doing better...she'd gotten a progress report in which all of her teachers wrote "keeps talking" or "likes to talk" or "won't stop talking" on it. Talk about flashback to my childhood, lol. I talked so much in class I remember having to write on the chalkboard, "I will not talk in class" 100 times. damn.
So this is just my mothers curse coming back to haunt me....
"I'm so fucking sick of you, when you grow up, I hope you have a kid ten times as bad as you"
whoa lady, I just talked in class....damn. lol
and so the saga continues with my talky daughter....I told her to shut her trap and concentrate on getting her shit done in class. period.
Her: "but, but...other people talk to me...."
me: "how many times do I have to tell you....."
her: "....you don't give a crap what other kids do...."
me: "eXXAaaaactly. now shut it up in class. if they talk to you just ignore them...shrug your shoulders and look away, stare at the teacher and act like your deaf...I dont care, just shut your lips"
so when i went to the parent teacher conference, all the teachers said she wasnt talking any more.
small victory over my thirteen year old...its small....i know it. how much longer can i weild this type of control over a teenager?
::shrugs::: dunno
BUT I'LL DO IT WHILE I CAN!!!
muuuhahahahahah ::::cough cough:::
anyway, i love the girl, she's hardheaded and stubborn (wonder where she got it from), traits that irk me now, but that will serve her well in the future.

LOL! Same here, all my report cards said I was 'talkative' though I wouldn't remember 'talking'. Crazy teachers...perhaps if they weren't so dang boring, I would not have had those statements on my report cards?! :) Poor Jessica, it's hard being a teenager LOL! :) But you are a better mom than what you went through! Okay where is my link? :( I'll link you on mine :);)
just kidding, I'm a dull and a bore :)

LMAO!! she got it from her mama anyway.
Chase you're so talented. I've checked out your artwork and I really am impressed. Your daughter is talented too.
Keep it coming woman, I really love what I've seen.

I am totally not able to use the link page on my blog. Everytime I add a link, it busts up my template. I know I am doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out. I will, and when I do, you will be in it. No doubt!!!
Visited your artwork. Wow, the pieces are so great. You have found a really wonderful way to create and express yourself!

Alright, alright already, I linked you. Happy now? ;)
I need the prodding. I was gonna do it, just got lazy.
Cool stuff you're making there!

Did better with her than anyone could do with me! Cudos!
You're a good mother, and she's lucky to have you: even if she doesn't listen all the time. She may complain now, but she'll be a great adult in the future. ;)

I have you linked *grins*
I don't think you're boring at all. I know the talking thing must be irritating then a mug, but you're on the case. It will get better!
I haven't made the trip to go see your artwork yet but it's definitely on my to-do list!
