One thing I cant tell you is that Nadine (fyrecracker) and I are still the bestest of friends and I was out to VA a bunch of times over the summer :)

Well, I was reading 2 posts down and one thing I can tell ya is that Mike did NOT get his license. I was right. It was SUSPENDED!! UGH. I guess because he got caught driving with out it they can suspend it before u even get it!

teehee..Did I just laugh out loud???

He is now living back home. This took place after he got arrested and I did not bail him out. That's right ladies and gentlemen!! I DID NOT BAIL HIM OUT!!! Did I mention that I cried like a baby tho??

Anyways, he was placed in a prison for kids aged 14-20 and well..he didn't like it very much. Lasted TWO days. Then..Yep..MOMMY TO THE RESCUE! SO..he abides MY laws now! He can take off at anytime he wants to...but if he does he will go right back to jail...do not pass go...Buh Bye.

Needless to say he is doing what he should and his gf is also living here now. She has herself a psycho mom who basically abandoned her so the state got involved and my hubby and I took her in. Ummm..YES..I am picking up her birth control TOMORROW!!  = )

My hubby was hospitalized for 2 nights a few weeks ago. He has had numbness in his left arm that I have hounded him about and it traveled down his left leg so he called me at work one day. I told him to GO TO THE E.R!! He said,"Ok honey...just as soon as I finish this alignment"  Grrrr..Well he went. They did a CT Scan said they saw "Spots" on his brain so they admitted him RIGHT AWAY! We thought ...well...u can imagine what we were thinking! Anyways...after 2 MRI's, another CT Scan, an EKG, EEG and all the blood they drew...They found out they were wrong..No Spots! UGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Well..we actually haven't gotten the EEG (brain scan) results back yet so we still have NO IDEA what is happening. Nice, huh?

I am still dealing with my bs with my neck and arm. I go for the EMG Thursday. I had to cancel my last appt..Joel was a little busy in the hospital...THEN..Get this..I get to have a shot in my FREAKING spine! Did u hear me?!?! I said SHOT...SPINE! HHEEEELLLLOOOO!!! Are they all crazy?? This will be next week...anyone have anything else they need me to do on the 18th? Cuz I SURE would love to be too busy to go!!!

Let's see...I feel like there is more...hmmm...I tell ya one thing..this AOL Radio thing is the BOMB! I am getting down to TOP COUNTRY! YEEE HAWWW!!

Hmmm.Country...makes me think of something that I wanted to tell y'all about.

"That's all right..I'm ok...it aint nothing but another day...."

OMG...I have this zit on my face...feels like it is growing...Lemme see...I just KNOW that I have more news!

OHHH!! I remember now!

I FOUND ANOTHER SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I

I just got back LAST FREAKING NITE from a trip to Texas to see my sister, Mandy, her hubby Shane and their little boy Aidan!! AAAAhhhhhh..Can u believe it?!?! She is AMAZING!!! We have SO much in common!! One important thing is that we HATE our ... AHEM..FATHER...BLECK...ICK..SPIT...

She grew up in Texas. Raised by her mom and as an ONLY CHILD! HA HA HA..Now she has me!! And Stacey and Billy and Richie and the other sister that I am looking for!!! WHOA!

So..I have now found 3 siblings. Two more to go!!! I am on a roll baby! I am getting the pics developed this week and I am waiting NOT so patiently for her hubby to send me the digi's he took of her and I...

I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU , MANDY!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOOO!!!

OK..My arm is killing me so I will quit this for now. As soon as the pics get in my email box I will post them here!

Hey! I guess it is time to update the 'ol journal!

OK..Lots been going on. I had to have a CT Scan to check for MS. I was thrilled to find out that I don't have it. I had some of the symptons but the CT Scan was OK!

My dr finally sent me to an Orthopedic Surgeon (for my neck and shoulder) and the CT Scan (they did one on the brain and one of my spine) showed TWO pinched nerves :::ouch:::

The dr was like.."Ewww..I can see why you have been in pain!" Can u say.."DUH"!

So now I get to have an EMG. It is when they test your nerves I guess...with NEEDLES! Um..Yeah...HELLO!

Let's see..Mike has been coming around a LOT more lately! We had a little clam bake and he came up...then he came up the other nite cuz he was hungry Oh..and needed money...then today to my work...Umm..OH..YEP..for money...but hey...the kid is showing his face again! :)

Tomorrow he goes for his license. HA HA HA..they boy was driving someones car the other day and got pulled over!! The cop said they may just suspend his license! I told him that we will go out to DMV. He will take the test and PASS DAMMITT. Then they will take his mug...give him his license..tell him to look it over...ask for it back..tell him SUSPENDED!!

I swear I will LMAO!! I told him he was CRAZY to be driving...Maybe this will teach him?

Ok..Maybe not...but it will still be funny!

Ty had his soccer practice last week and his first game is this Saturday at 8:30 in the freaking morning!!! AAAHHhhhhh....LOL...GO TY!

We had the local fair here over Labor Day weekend and the town was NUTS! People and traffic everywhere!

OMG..This morning on my way to work these 2 kids slammed into the ass end of a cop car!!! Their truck was TOTALED and the cop car had a scratch! Those things are made TUFF!! LOL Everyone was ok...Brrr..I shiver at the thought of hitting a police officer!

I got my famous end of the summer cold! I had it Monday and Tuesday. Monday I was in bed all day and yesterday I got up...went to work...did payroll and came home and went back to bed..Til this morning!!!

I feel better finally.

Nay isn't coming to see us next week. By now I am sure everyone know's that her home was broken into. They (she and Shane) HAVE to save their pennies now so they can move...I HATE that she won't be here but I totally understand!

Don't forget to check out her journal and hit the links on there..She has a TON of great mirrors and votives that she has made and can make!! I know that the money she gets from them will help her and Shane to get their home moved!

I guess that is all for now.

I have a TON of catching up to do here in J-Land.

Talk at ya laterz!

Mike stopped by my work yesterday~

OMG..I swear that kid gets more handsome every time I see him! I'm not just saying that cuz he's my kid...He REALLY does!!

Anyways...he came to my work. He was in a wicked good mood and he had this look about him...I don't know...Sorta peaceful looking.

I kept staring at him waiting for the "GOT ANY MONEY" question but it never came. We talked for a few, he told me some things that have been going on ...One thing that made me happy was that the "Scum Bag" has disappeared!! YYYAAAAHHHHHOOOOO!!!!

Cops must be hot on his skanky tail so off he went! C-YA!

Then he had to run. He and some of his friends were headed to Boston for the night. Sounded like fun!

SO...he gave me a BUG hug and held it longer than usual and as he was walking out he yelled "Love you mom!"

It was pretty kewl. Maybe things are going to start getting better. Maybe he is coming to his senses...Maybe I am reading too much into it. BUT..I don't care...I was so happy.

OMG! I also started selling Avon!!

"AVON CALLING!" hehehe...I can do most everything thru the internet now so after I read everything I will post some info here and FEEL FREE to buy some Avon from me. I was skimming thru the book yesterday and I can't believe the things they have now! It's awesome!

 

OH..Let me tell ya~ I am the TOMATO QUEEN! I can grow one mean tomato!We have tomato's in our garden and a few have already ripened and OMG are they the Bomb! I have one now. I cut it up with 1/2 a cucumber, threw them in a bowl, salted them and then thru my homemade italian dressing on. Just a little bit. It is DELICIOUS!

Hmmm..Maybe I should sell tomatos alongwith my Avon! LOL

I think I mentioned how I bought Tivo. I still can't believe that I had lived without that thing for so long! I record my soaps everyday. You get a season pass and it will record whatever show u pic every time it is on. Of course my soaps...and BIG BROTHER get recorded. Oprah too. A few new shows that have started and right now I am recording "50 First Dates". It is on Pay Per View. You purchase it then hit record. SO...tonite Joel, me and Ty can get some popcorn and drinks and hang out together and watch the movie. Right now while it records I am watching my soap that I recorded yesterday. Ok Ok...I know...'Nuff about the TIVO! LOL Butcha GOTTA go get one of them things!

I am also on this painting streak. I painted my kitchen cabinets sage green and they look SO pretty! My hubby got this ...hmmm...it is sorta hard to describe...Its a dresser type of thingy but the drawers/doors slide to the side instead of being pulled open. I think someone made them. I want to paint it sage green and then spray paint the knobs chrome. I just don't know where I will put it. Joel rolls his eyes everytime I mention PAINT. I am loving this color and I think he is afraid that I will paint the whole house and everything in it this color. LOL

Well, I think I am going to go get my Avon stuff and read up on it then go to the website. The woamn that set me up was entering my info on the web page so I have to go see how to get into it.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

OH..I have to thank you guys for the great responses/advice...etc..to the "J" entry about my son Mike. I will keep you posted.

SO, where is it I start exactly?

I know it’s been awhile since I posted last. As I told you I have been going thru some things...or I should say my family has been going thru some things and well..I just needed a break.

I guess I should start at the beginning.

It was the day I got back from seeing Nadine.

I was at Logan Airport waiting for the shuttle to take me back to Framingham when my cell phone rang.

I was told by this person on the other end that they had heard my son was dealing. Well..not so much dealing but what they call “Running”.

He would get the drug from the “Big Guy”...or as I like to call him...SCUM BAG...and run it to the person who was buying it.

I had heard this rumor before but sort of shrugged it off. But the info that I got while at Logan made my hair standon end.

I just knew it was true.

All kinds of things were going thru my head...I didn’t know what to do...what to say...Was it something that I did? Did I not give him enough that he had to resort to this? Didn’t he remember all that I went thru being married once to a drug addict?!

WTF is he thinking?!?

SO..I boarded the bus and sat there for the 45 min ride just thinking.

I got to Framingham and I was so happy to see Joel and Ty!

I told Joel what I was told and we sort of had a quiet ride home. I think we were both just taking it all in.

Well..As we arrived in Putnam (the town next to mine where Mike has been living) we were driving past the road where he lives and there he was!

OMG..I screamed for Joel to go ...I made him block in a car and before he even stopped I was out of the car running at Mike.

I lost it. I started pushing him...hitting him in the chest...screaming at him on the TOP OF MY LUNGS...I was telling EVERYONE on that road that my son was a drug dealer. I also started screaming out that SCUM BAGS name! I didn’t care!!

All I remember is his face. The look of horror and when I told him to give me his house key back he could barely get it off the keychain. He was shaking so bad.

I didn’t care...I was SO angry..

Quite honestly ...I think if I had a gun I would have found that son of a bitch he was running for and shot him myself.

I have NEVER felt like this before...

I told Mike that he was no longer a part of my family. That as long as he continued this he was not welcome in my home.

I was getting in people’s faces that I didn’t know...Telling them all they were going down. I even stuck my head in someone’s car and started freaking out on them.

I sort of blanked...zoned...Ya know?

THIS is WHY I never posted the pics of my trip.

THIS is what has kept me away...

I wasn’t going to talk about any of this to anyone. I mean of course I told close friends and family but I mean here. BUT...Why Not?! Writing about things sometimes makes me feel better. Why should I be ashamed?? I didn’t do anything...He is almost 18 years old. He knows right from wrong. All I can do now is pray that he will come to his senses and WAKE THE HELL UP!

WHO KNOWS. Maybe I shouldn’t post things like this here. For all the world to see. For everyone to “see” me at my most vulnerable time. To “see” the words...the threatening words...that I made toward this man who got my son into this.

I will tell him these things to his face...I don’t care!!!

I feel like I have to talk about it.

Since this day I have seen Mike only a few times. I have tried...I really have. I have stopped by with food...he came up for a cook out...given him money...I wrote him a letter...I have BEGGED him to stop and to come home...but he won’tI actually found out that he said he is staying away to “Prove a point”!

WHAT?!?

To prove to ME that he can make it on his own!

WHAT A FREAKING COP OUT!

I NEVER told him that he wouldn’t be able to make it on his own!!

I KNEW he would!

He has always been self sufficient. He is SO much like me...doesn’t like to ask for help...independent...UGH.

One day I brought him some McDonalds and I brought it to the SCUM BAGS house. The SCUM BAG wanted to meet me!!!

HA HA HA

I was like..YEAH! Tell him to come down!!

I told Mike I would be fine with it!

I had every intention of remaining calm and explaining to him exactly everything that my family and I have been going through since this started.

I figured if he tried to make excuses or deny any of it then and only then..I would FREAK OUT! J

BUT...the SCUM BAG came down with a sudden cold and couldn’t make it downstairs.

Weird, huh?

Oh well. There is always next time.

Now a days I keep tabs on Mike by asking around. Everything he tells me is basically a lie...I usually get the truth from his friends who don’t even realize that they are telling me anything important.

I have thought about turning everyone in but now I know that this SCUM BAG is being watched. I mean this dude is under the microscope with the local police. Mike also knows this but continues to hang out.

I made it clear that I will NOT bail him out this time.

Not in a million years!!

This time? He is on his own.

So..for now..I wait...

Other than that...Everything else is ok.

I have been analyzing the shit out of the way I raised Mike and I am trying to do what ever I can to be different with Ty.

I am keeping him busy with sports and all we talk about is theimportance of school.

He wants to be a cop JJJ

He knows that he has to stay out of trouble and stay in school and go to college.

He told me he wants to go to a “DAY COLLEGE”..LMAO...So he can be home every night with me.

GOD..I remember those days with Mike...he used to be the same way.

How innocent they are...makes me melt.

I just hope that I can keep Ty on this path...I know that I will do what I can.

Thanks for listening and I will keep you all posted.

Luv,

dottie
