Guilty Pleasures??

Day 3 of Blogging Summer Camp:

What are your guilty pleasures?

I waste time just about everyday on the Internet. I have to catch up on Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, Email, and look for new patterns to make. This could take a couple of hours. If I decide to change my blog around (colors, background, header, adding things) then that could take a couple of more hours. Also, darling daughter number 1 has me proofread her blog and change things. I say this is a waste of time only because it takes away from me sewing, knitting, visiting with my family, cleaning, doing errands, etc. So basically, I am a procrastinator.

But, guilty, no, I don't feel guilty. Eating chocolate; no guilt. Enjoying my husband; no guilt. Wasting time; no guilt. Spoiling my grand kids; no guilt. Recently taking up a few drinks a couple of times a week; no guilt. Wasting my time sewing, knitting, reading; no guilt. I do what I want when I want. Always have. Always will.

If I had the money, I would be getting pedicures, buying clothes left and right, going to concerts, hiring a cleaning lady, buying a Rumba to do my floors, taking trips, etc, etc, etc. But, alas!! I am poor.

P.S. I forgot that I stay up till the wee hours of the morning.

Divorce

My mom and dad split up when I was 9 years old. The marriage was pure hell for them and me. Yes, me! I had to hear my mom crying late at night because my father was out after work doing god knows what. (Well, we know cheating was going on). When he was around it was pure hell. I walked on eggshells and was sick to my stomach most of the time. My father acted like he just hated my mom. I didn't feel like he liked me much either. I was the only reason that they even got married. There was so much fighting, crying, and my mother had breakdowns, and I had to hear my father force my mother into sex acts. It was all quite sickening. So when he did leave for good, it was a relief! Although, I was pissed at them both. Why the hell did they even get married? It was the end of the 60s and my father grew up with strict religious parents who instilled in him that if you knock a girl up; you marry her. So, that's what he did. And that was so NOT the right thing to do. Although, if he

My Little Girls Birthday!

Today is my oldest child's birthday. She is 26 years old. Not a little girl anymore. Although, she will always by a little girl to me. She has a lovely disposition and it amazes me how she turned out that way having the parents that she has. We are anything but lovely. lol. I am looking forward to watching her grow even more into the woman she will become. I love you, Patricia Marie O'Donnell, with all my heart!!

Frazzled

This is what I felt like after work today. It's what I feel like and look like when people are all at me at the same time demanding things from me relentlessly without any regards to me and my plans. If you are asking me to help you out and take you somewhere, then by god, it will be on MY terms and when I can fit you in! Not the other way around. And please don't spring things on me last minute. This is why I seem like a bitch and blow up in your face. I can only take so much. And yes; 2 of my family members have been told repeatedly. So, I really don't feel bad about my behavior.
