Tonight I am sitting at the local library doing some research and listening to some teenagers talking. It is sad how they talk bad about their parents because they can't get the new IPHONE or they are not allowed to stay out past midnight on a school night. The language they are using is just sad, especially for being in a public place not far from children. It makes me question, where is the respect these kids have for others and for their parents? Why is RESPECT something of the past?
I am a mother and I notice my kids press buttons with me all the time and yes it gets to me. There is no respect there, but I am not giving up and hoping they will learn. I do hope to teach them enough to make good choices in life, and hopefully not to follow their father's path (is incarcerated). I hope to be the example they need but yet feel that I am failing in. I know that I am doing better then I believe I am. Just will take time for me to see that I am not screwing it up.
Nothing to really report about lately, just extremely tired. Just feel like I haven't slept in a long time... hahaha yes sign im a mom. But its more than just sleep, I am working 2 jobs and busting my hiney at both. Just need to catch up on bills and try to save some money to the side for emergency use. I feel bad because I haven't been able to do that, but with bills its almost impossible. I have that fantasy that i am able to go back to school and finish my paramedic and be able to do what i want to do. Yet as a single parent, I know that dream can not be reached at this time. Oh well.
Anyways I am almost done with my time limit and need to get going.
