[starduster]

Too clever

o.k. im not going to go all psychologist on ya here (because thats what my degree is in)... but i feel ya!


glad it all worked out!!!!

how does that work with approval invoice and all that stuff?

Awe Ian T. Can you do that on my Grandma calamity???

 

[IanT]

lol hey! being a grandma aint so bad!!!

you get to spoil the little ones !! and then they loooooooooooooooooooooove you

call me weird but I can wait to be a grandpa! lol... in another 30 or so years lol....

 

[Jody]

I'm with Ian. I can't wait to be a Grandma but I will be Oma only because I am Dutch. Hopefully, not for awhile. Boys are in their mid and late 20's so hopefully they are a little older before being Daddy's.

Re: Forward

you will grow much older and much more wrinkled than me if you are waiting for appologies from everyone that you think owes you one.
On ward and upward, never look back , unless of course you have dropped a bar off chocolate anf need to retrieve it.

It's not so much that I feel I am owed anything. It really bothers me when someone is upset or unhappy with me.

But you are right, Starduster...already...it's ridiculous how much gray hair and new lines I have on my face (just since I started having kids almost 8 years ago). LOL Those scowl lines and stress lines ont he forehead...are getting deeper each year.

Ohh! Wow! Didn't realize that, Ian. I have much respect for those in the field of psychology. When I graduated highschool...that's what my major was in college. But got married and started having babies. Stopped that real quick. LOL I soo want to go back! Hopefully, now that all 3 kids are in school full time...I will be able to go back in the fall :

Marrying so young (just turned 19 then) and having children immediately afterward....I hope my sons and daughter will wait until they're out of college and in a good career before they marry and have children. But I would love to be a Grandma one day. I am fine with "Grandma," but I am still young and haven't gone through that midlife crisis yet. So, that may change. My mom like's to be called Nani (how I spell it but it's pronounced Naw - nie). My dad is called Poppi. My grandparents are older and are Grandma Joyce & Grandpa Darrell. If they decided to change that now...I think I'd have a hard time. LOL

Grandmas...

No matter what they are called...Grandmothers are the best! They hold a very special place in MY heart! I got to talk to one of mine this evening! That was a great pick me up as well. If I can live up to be half of the women my 2 grandmothers are...I will be happy!

 

[IanT]

Ive only got one still left living!... she JUST turned 89!! :shock: she is the sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetest thing on Earth I loooove her...

as far as psychology goes...yeah never got me anywhere (careerwise i mean..)... Im so thankful for all the things ive learned...just never wanted to do the whole dr. of psych thing.. im more into natural medicine and holistic therapies and such, going to be graduating in june a licensed massage therapist!!! sweeeeeet!!

I still need to HAVE kids before i am a grandpa

but im waiting on that too for at least another 8 years... not married , but been with my lady for going on 5 years... so we shall see where that goes!

im so indecisive about long term commitments and stuff.... its hard!! lol giving up my bachelorhood! :shock:


I think we have sooooooooooooooooOOooOOOOOOoooo much to learn from our elders, and whenever given a chance I have a welcoming ear

my mother always said God gave you two ears and one mouth so you would listen more than you talk!

i think alot of people my age (im 23) need to work on listening...

If my Grandfather (Opa) was still alive he'd have turned 110 last month!!!! He was born in the 1800s (1899).

 

[busymammaof3]

Wow, Ian! That's awesome! I pray mine live to be that age! I agree with you, Ian. People our age (27)...could definitely use some wisdom from our elders! Also about the whole Dr. in Psychology thing.
At one point my goal was to get my "doctorate"...but after a few classes...I changed my mind. LOL And now that I have had children and my priorities have changed so much...I am much more into natural wellness, health and healing than ever. Although I am on medications. Natural supplements and such are still very important to me!

Jody, I'm sorry for your loss. :0( Two of my grandparents have passed so far. 2 of my grandfathers (step and biological). Both my grandmothers and one of my biological grandfathers are still with us. And they are 3 of the most important people in my life!

what doesn't kill ya, only makes ya stronger. lol

you're gonna do great. get the bugs worked out in the beginning and the rest is cake. by the way cake seems to help sometime--- chocolate- yummm.

love this board full of loving people with fast responses to people in need.
you got a lot of good advice-- and don't forget to enjoy some of your hard work yourself, after all aren't we all about pampering, destressing and fun in our love for our craft.- take a bath, suds, fizz and fun up all those goodies you created and know that others are gonna benefit from them the way your family and friends have.

I think we have sooooooooooooooooOOooOOOOOOoooo much to learn from our elders, and whenever given a chance I have a welcoming ear

Absolutely!!! Best "life" lessons I ever learned came from elders. You do not necessarily realize it at the time. I bought my Dad a small digital recorder, told him to carry it with him and when he thinks of a story, record it. Then I copy it onto a cd. I love my stories told in his voice. His great grandchildren will have the pleasure of hearing them told in his voice, and being southerners, we do love story telling!

And I find it interesting the things I have learned from small children. Sometimes they remind us to look at things differently.

Once apon a time we invented stories

And with my thhhhick Oirirish blood ,but not born there, knee deep in the Irish Reallies and their stories my Dad on and on with stories, I guess I just think in stories now.
Thats a great way to pass on some of the ambience of days gone by.
Now I like to make up stories about the future and the now.
But gotta make them happy.
Creating our own magic that way .
