I was reading along and something got me to thinking. Why cann't we get any asistance in this time of need? I'm very

fortunate that my husband will be home in Oct. I cann't imagine what my life would be if it were any longer. My heart and prayers go out to all who have loved ones locked up. It is shameful the way people look at US. So what we have a loved one in prison. Just because our loved one is locked up doesn't mean that we are guilty of any thing, except loving someone who made a wrong decision. But now we are all paying for it. Some more than others, and that is wrong. I thought we were all created equal.Well I don't see any even steven in this mess.

I wonder what Hillary Clinton would do if her child or husband were locked up and she had no access to them.You know as well as I do that would never happen only cause she has more money than she knows what to do with, and that sucks. It shouldn't matter if you have money and power. I'm sure it's the same with the rest of US out there. If we had money we probably wouldn't be in this mess. Don't know said it "money is the root of all eval." boy were they right. Every body wants a piece of the pie.

But when you look at WE are the lucky ones. WE might not have a million bucks but I'd say WE have something better. Real love. WE might be middle of the road people but at least WE are honest about OUR life. Instead of traveling the country to buy what they think happiness is. Guess what. You can't buy what WE have.And that is HEART & SOAL. you eather have it or you don't. All the Dr. Phills in the world can't take that from US.

So the next time your standing in the foodstamp line ( to be told you can get $10.00 a month foodstamps) Hold your head up and know you have something better than the snob behind the glass.

We're all in such a hurry and to busy to give someone in need akind word or just a friendly ear to listen. Instead of worring about getting there name in lights and a pat on the back. If people would be more neighborly toward each other without exspecting something for there kindness or helping hand. I understand some days are worse than others, but we can't let that slow us down. If we do something from our heart it's a much better feeling than any pat on the back.

Well it's another great day in the neighborhood! Yea right! I hate this slow ass computer. I'm a grandma and I move faster than this stupid thing. Anyway, I woke up with thoughts of what I wanted to say but after waiting on this stupid machine to do it"s thing my mind goes blank. Wonder why is that? Could it be old age,stress, or how about to many years of abuse to the body? Or maybe all three. I think so. Yea know ladies and gentelmen we all come on here and poor our heart out about how bad our loved ones have done us,but maybe I missed the story about how bad we may have treated our loved ones. When you look at the big picture maybe we are part of the reason our loved ones arelocked up and we're out here crying about it. Don't get me wrong this doesn't apply to everyone. I think we all know who we are. I know for me I haven't always been a (or probably never will be) June Cleaver of a wife.(ok for you youngsters out there June Cleaver is the mom on the tv show Leave It To Beaver) I know I've done my share of  nagging,complaining. But isn't that what we learned from our moms. Probably not. We are just made that way. Does it matter anyway? Men see us as helpless little babies (when they're home) So they get locked up and leave us to the wolves. Now we are learning to fend for ourselves and they get mad. To bad so sad. They should have thought about that before they did whatever they did to get locked up for in the first place. Guess what guys WE can make it with or without you. So if you LOVE US as much as you say you do, then SHAPE UP OR SHIP OUT. There's plenty more monkeys out there that would like to be in the Circus.

We love you guys.so why make us crazy?

Where do I begin? Well today was just as tough as yesterday and the day before. Yea know it wouldn't be so bad if We didn't have to

watch our children hurt so much in all this. I cry every day just seeing my little girl look so sad. Although she's not alittle girl anymore, almost 18 senior in high school. I'm so proud of her even after all this she has managed a 4.0 grade average and got here first job all on her own. It's hard to believe all 4 of my children are very smart concidering what bad parents we've been. We really have been blessed. So how did we get to this point? I could blame it all on my husband for being stupid in the no stupid zone. But I guess I have to take some of the blame for this mess. But why, I didn't do anything to have this mess begin in the first place.It feels like I'm being punished too. I don't mind but why make our children suffer. Just cause they're grown they hurt just as much as little kids. Maybe more cause they know the truth about whats going on. Not like when they were little I could save they're feelings. They're use to dad being gone alot cause his job sent him out of town alot.Then he would come home and all was well till now. So what's a mother to do? The only thing she can.....CRY everyday.

Don't know what button I hit but I screwed up this whole page. Sorry bout that. I'm still teaching MYSELF how to use a computer.But Just don't have time to practice everyday,now that I have to work my fingers to the bone just be able to not even pay all the bills.When we got married 20 years ago, we were poor but I didn't have to work because my husband is a good man despite his addiction.He always took good care of us,as I know he will again when he gets home.

I could go on forever but duty calls. Maybe tomarrow will be better. YEA RIGHT!!!
