Well, looks like I've pissed my mother off just in time for Christmas.

Well, looks like I've pissed my mother off just in time for Christmas.

She actually just called me, told me about a situation, and then hung up on me because I didn't agree with her. I wish she could just see what's important regarding my niece.  The child is taken care of, my brother isn't trying to take her back, and everyone is ok - except for her. The family that has my niece extended an invitation for the holidays, and of course mom can't accept it graciously. She has to "finish" a conversation in a rude and hurtful way, thus isolating herself more. Sorry, mom, but if you did that to me every time we spoke, I wouldn't want you around, either. Accept the situation and get to be part of your granddaughter's life, or don't. Oh, and please realize that you probably don't know the whole truth, either. All any of us know is what we saw, and you weren't even there for that part of it. All you got is hear-say. I'm sorry.

Our Halloween pumpkin...

Our Halloween pumpkin that never quite graduated into a Jack-O-Lantern.  Thanks to Mary Beth he still has a purpose!  ❤

Happy Solstice and stuff.

Praise be to Jesus!

Ok, Saks, keep an eye out..

Ok, Saks, keep an eye out for someone looking for a place to hide.  The Salvation Army was just robbed and some skinny motherfucker was in my yard looking for a place to go.  (Cops said that was most likely who that was.  It's not like I have anything to take).  

I hate this neighborhood.

NOW... I need to chill the hell out and try to get some sleep.

I just bribed Shaun to come over here with cookies!

😃😃😃  I just bribed Shaun to come over here with cookies!  I'm gonna be so happy to see his face!  ❤❤❤

I think my Nappy girl...

I think my Nappy girl is doing well enough that she can handle herself while I'm at work tomorrow.  I will just crate Emma to make sure there are no incidents while I'm gone.  Those two have been doing great since Nappy has been on shots for her joints so I'm hoping that the previous altercations had something to do with Nappy feeling bad.

I think that they will do great together again, but Em's a little jealous of Nappy's special treatment right now.  However, I remember spending the night last Christmas Eve in the living room floor with Emma because she wasn't feeling well.  Too bad she doesn't remember!  There are none of them that I wouldn't go out of my way to take care of.  I hope it's a great long while before they all get to know that, though!
