<------ I swear, I tell it to my kids all the time! LMAO....
So, I know I haven't been on here for a while because I don't have my computer currently so it's hard to write from my crappy phone... but, lemme tell you what's been happening in my neck of the woods and give ya'll a few laughs in the mean time.
My son informed me last Monday he "disected" his first frog. I thought to myself, "They're starting that in Elementary school now?"... then I thought to myself, "wait a minute, you didn't have school today , kid!"... and asked HOW and WHERE.... he goes into this story about how one of his friends got a pet frog from his aunt for his birthday and he didn't want it. (I wasn't sure I wanted to hear the rest at all, but I let him continue).... he tells me that his friend asked his mother if they could kill it, and his mother said "Yes, as long as you don't do it in front of the house!".... so , they all took this helpless frog down the block (my son, his friend and a few of their other friends)... and proceeded to stab at it, cut it, and such until it died... he got graphic and I was starving , but once I heard that... lost my appetite and couldn't eat AT ALL.... seriously, I tried! :x - so, he showed me the spots on his sweater that were "frog blood" and told me how bad it smelled....and was nice enough to ask if I wanted to smell it. Isn't that sweet????? LOL - I screamed about how he better PRAY AND BEG God for forgiveness and that the frog is one of Gods creatures and how wrong it was. ..... so, the next day, taking them to school - I see their grandma from their dads side and asked if he told her what they did to the frog. Frankie tells me NO - he didn't...and then asks me, "Did I tell you it was a real frog or a candy frog where juice squirts out?"..... I asked him to tell me the truth and he said it was just a juice filled candy frog. I had a FIT.... !!!! I was so mad at him, but so thankfully it wasn't real because when he told me that, I had no idea how to make Frankie see how wrong it was... ! I'm tellin' you.... the kid drives me nuts.... LOL...
I then get an e-mail from his teacher about how he talked back to her one day last week, and mocked her , made jokes about something she had said, and plays around in class too much...so she wanted me to go sit with him one day and see how he behaves. I did... I sure the hell did.... ! He asked if I was going to sit with him every day. I told him, "I sure the heck am, until your grades go up and you see I'm not playing around. I'll sing, I'll dance...anything to embarass you so you never want me in your class again!".... he laughed like I was joking. I don't mind embarassing my kids. I had them to have fun with them... LMAO.... ! Seriously tho, I went and sat in class with him...and for some reason, his teacher must have thought he was going to act up while I was there. HA! He grew a halo... ! He was so polite, quiet...did his class work, followed directions, paid attention, and during reading time where the kids get to sit any where they want and read to themselves....he sat at his desk quietly and read without a peep. His teacher whispered that him sitting at his desk was a great idea because usually he sits by Josh and another boy, and plays around during that time... Josh is well known. His mom knows Frankie and I... I know Josh and his mom. When our boys get together... it's crazy-ness. I told Frankie MY RULES from now on and how he's to read at his desk and NOT sit by Josh and the other boy he gets in trouble with, along with a few other rules he's to follow from now so I don't have to come back and sit with him until the end of the year, and he knows I will.... I went to Gym with his class as well where they played Soccer against the 5th graders. Frankie asked if I could be the score person... I said no, but the gym teacher heard him and told him, "Sure!".... and she handed me the board thing... the 5th graders scored 9... Frankie's class scored 1... and guess what??? MY FRANKIE made that 1 point! :) HELL YEAH!!!!!
He was so happy and I was so proud.
After gym, I had to laugh because he was talking to me, and the teacher had told him, "Frankie, just because your mom is here, doesn't mean you can talk to her as much as you want in the hallways!"... she gave me the choice to leave now that he knows I mean business, or stay the rest of the day. I told him, "I'm leaving, now you got me in trouble!"... lmao... but, he was cool with me going, and I made it clear I better not get anymore e-mails and he better not get in anymore trouble, and so far -so good... nothing yet!
Then last night, .... this kid had me laughing so hard although, I probably need to ask God for forgiveness for giggling.....I was telling the 2 oldest they need to get to Communion classes to make their first Communion and that I had to call the church by the house and see if I can get them in. Frankie asked what it was, and I was telling him, "That's when you get the wafer and the wine to remember Jesus' dying on the cross, and ask for forgiveness for any sins!".... Frankie says, "What am I going to say...? Forgive me God for drinking all your wine?"........ Frankie has been excited about being able to taste the wine at church when he does make his first Communion,and I'm trying to explain that this is not a game...and this is something that needs to be taken religiously, and seriously.... but, the fact that he made that little joke.... I couldn't help but giggle a bit. I'm a mother.... okay??? These are the "Out of the mouths of babes" moments moms cherish.... it's wrong, but it's silly ...... so, I did explain that he shouldn't joke about it, and he got serious after that. oy! This boy ....
Not to mention he comes out of school last night with $2. I asked where he got the money from. He mentioned he got it from a dare that his friend dared him to do asking out 2 girls..one that Frankie likes, and one that his friend likes, and that both girls said YES to them, so he got the money from his friend. smh...Frankie then tells me he now has a girlfriend named Aaliyah. I told him, "you THINK you have a girlfriend because you're now allowed to date!"... but, I'm not too worried about it because it's puppy crush type of stuff, and he only sees this girl in school. Not much can happen there with the teachers around between the beginning of school and the end of it..and someone - if not me - is always there to pick him up and bring him to school as well... so he has no time for funny business. He then mentions my oldest has a boyfriend. She said she doesn't, and she doesn't want one! GOOD ANSWER...LMAO... I told Frankie, "Tiffie is more worried about her basketball stuff and graduation, right Tiff?"...she said yes... Right answer again!.... I was proud hearing that. LOL...
Any way, if ya'll wanna laugh..let me share this story with you....
I came across a woman in her late 50's this week sitting outside and she asked if I had a cell phone she could use. I gladly let her use mine without a 2nd thought. She called me sweetie and she was polite and all. She made 2 calls and I heard her telling someone where she was, and the address - and that she'd be waiting right there to be picked up. I'm thinking this chick is normal, so when she hangs up..she asks how to delete the calls she made from my phone. I deleted them in front of her and she thanked me and told me she does that now because she had called her sister and brother from another guys phone, and he kept calling them, leaving them voicemails, harassing them, threatening them and such... I was like, "Oh my God!"... and I showed her again to re-assure her, I deleted the calls and wouldn't be doing what he did. She thanked me, and once again - nothing out of the ordinary... she then tells me she called her sister to see if she was okay, because her sister got raped. Now... during the convos she was having, I didn't hear anything about her asking anyone if they were okay... but, maybe it was when I walked away to get coffee.. idk?! She then tells me her sister has been raped over 900 times! Now... 900 times is a little extreme... so I figured maybe she was just speaking in terms..ya know?! Like saying a lot.... then she tells me her brother has been raped 3,500 times... her other brother 700 times... her other sister has been raped this many times, her other brother - that many times..and she just kept going and going..and I felt like asking how many brother and sisters she has! ... it was really stranger. LOL... and I almost sat down and be-friended this woman... she then goes on and on about different Police departments, how she's Psychic, and a bunch of other shit. What REALLY made me realize how nuts she was, was when she mentioned her brother in law just got killed at UNION station, she was trying to get over there, and how Barak and Michelle Obama raped her. YES... you read that right!! lmao.... that's when I knew this lady belonged in a stray jacket...!
I felt like telling her .......................

YES... you read that right!! lmao.... that's when I knew this lady belonged in a stray jacket...!
I felt like telling her .......................
But, I didn't feel like standing there while she LOOKED for my Imaginary friend and knowing her...she would have! LOL...
She then tells me, "After all I have told you, I need you to answer a question for me and be honest"... I told her okay... and she asks, "Do you think you are an evil person?"... I gave her the funniest look, tried so hard not to laugh and felt like telling her, "Oh yeah...you're a complete stranger and I just let you use my cell phone...I'm going to hell!"... but I just simply told her, "No...I'm not evil.. not me!"... she starts getting fiesty and tells me, "you are a woman...you are most def. evil!"... and tells me she knows all about me. She goes on and on about being a Psychic and how she knows I'm trying to be a cop... which is a lucky guess I hope... LMAO... and , she starts talking about a bunch of different Police stations and how she can get uniformed and UN-uniformed cops - and starts calling me CYNTHIA and says she knows who I am...tells me I went to some elementary school for 8 years (I forgot the name she said)...AND then did 4 years at some high school... and just kept telling me what an evil person I am, and saying I was this Cynthia chick! That's when I knew it was time to walk away ...LMAO... and I did... it was just wild....
so, I thought I'd share that with you guys and make you laugh a bit..
As for my tickets, trying to get a car and get back on the road... trying to get back to school, do the whole Police thing (Which I still haven't heard from - Booooooooooo!)..and all...I'm okay... going through other shit but life has a way of knocking you on your ass when you finally think you're up...
Almost forgot... we also took the kids to the Pumpkin farm yesterday...they enjoyed it much! Had a nice time..went to Mcdonalds after, and came back to my parents house for the night. I haven't slept one bit since yesterday morning so...later when ex hubby has the kids...I'll be taking a nice long hot shower.. and a nice long nap!!!
and... that's pretty much my life summed up quickly at the moment...
until next time,
Peace and Love...
