Many of you know that Randy and I do NOT get along very well with his family.
His mom and I have a somewhat strained truce. She doesn't open her mouth about how I do things and I won't open my mouth about how shitty of a mom she actual was. She and Randy's step dad don't bug us and we don't bug them. We like his step dad. Even if they are none seen grandparents to our kids, they still are the second set of grandparents to the kids. Randy's mom knows the only way I keep the kids away from her and her hubby is if they do a 360 on us and start kissing ass to Randy's ex wife. We know she will ALWAYS favoritize Randy's sister and her kids over us and as long as his mom doesn't open his mouth we get along fine. Randy knows that I will go off on his mom in a heartbeat and she knows I will too if she downgrades him in front of me or I find out about it. Thus why she doesn't like me. I am "too aggressive". In otherwords, Randy married a woman who is somewhat like his mother. I rule the roost. And I demand things MY way. And she doesn't like that when she is around me and my family.
Randy's sister. She threatened me when she was in Germany the year Randy and I were preggie with DeLaney. Why? Because I went the FARK off on his mom about how shitty of a mother she actually was...Plus I said a few other hard truths to both Randy and his mom concerning what will be accepted towards my kids and what wouldn't. I made Randy's mom cry! Boo fucking hoo! Can't handle the truth then don't start shit with me. When Randy's sister threatened to come back from Germany on some of her leave time to "kick my ass" Randy started laughing at her and said: "Best bring the US Army with you soldier girl! My wife will kick your ass and hand deliver it to my brother in law. Your training doesn't mean shit to her because she is mean and can't stand how this family treats me." Once his sister realized what his mom had done (not going into that) she called back and said sorry to Randy. Randy pointed out that she best apologize to me. I did get my apology 6 years later at Randy's Grandmother's funeral. Randy and his sister do NOT get along. They have our addy and phone number. We have theirs. We keep up on our neices and nephews. We support where ever they get staition by both Randy's sister and her hubby being 20 year carerr soldiers in the Army. And we don't bother them. They don't bother us. Randy's sister and her family kling to her husband's family (even though he is an only child he has TONS of cousins) and we accept that. Just like they accept MY family is our rock.
Randy's dad. He is an asshole PLAIN and simple. He married a bible thumping bitch. And lets just say, my kids have not seen that fucker in over 5 years. He wants to kiss Randy's lying sack of shit whory ex wife. He caters to what ever husband she is married to at the time. Places her son who is NOT his grandchild above even his daughter's children. Every time we have turned around int he last three years we have been back in the home area, he is attempting to get me and Randy up in his town. Why? Because he wants to let Randy see his girls fromt he bitch. We would lvoe to but we don't have legal rights to them anymore and as soon as Randy's ex wife finds out we saw them after his dad set things up even with OUT our knowledge she would have charges pressed. A judge even had to point out to Randy's ex wife that we gave up parental rights freely and since we all three are from the tri state area, we would eventually bump into the girls and no charges could be pressed if that happened. Randy's dad is closing on 70 and he wants to see his "grandbabies". He has even stopped in at Randy's place of work trying to talk Randy into bringing the kids up to see him with out MY knowledge! Randy has point blank told that peice of shit that I am their mother and I will know where my kids are at! And he himself does NOT want his children seeing his father because of his backstabbing perverted bullshit ways nor do we want our children around his bible thumping wife who rather kiss his ex wife's ass!
Well get this! Last month the asshole invited all of us to his Legion Unit's Veteran's Day party. Randy said no until you get it through your head my ex wife is NOT your daughter then you don't need anything to do with me or my family. His dad pulled out well I am old I want to see the only grandson that carries MY last name! I'll sue you under grandparental rights...Randy started lauging at him and said you do that dad and you can finally see why the Bitch (that would be Randy's ex wife) is so scared of Jackie! I am not worried about it. Because MY entire immediate and extended family will back me up. Randy's sister got wind of the threat via their dad and she told off their dad off also.
According to his dad, he doesn't have much to do with Randy's ex wife anymore...That is why when messing around on the comp yesterday we find his dad on Facebook and has both the girls (which that is fine) but also Randy's exwife! We have Randy's sister and brother in law. His dad didn't even attempt to look his own daughter up on facebook!
And that fucker wonders why we dislike him and his wife! Constantly kissing Randy's ex wife's ass! And treating his own kids like shit!

About Asthma Flare-Ups
Asthma is a chronic lung malady that causes airways to mature angry, unequalled to symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Anyone can have asthma, including infants and adolescents. The tendency to disclose asthma is again inherited medikament Acticin.
Assorted kids with asthma can say normally with a view weeks or months between flare-ups. When flare-ups do suggest itself to, they habitually seem to happen without warning. Actually, an asthma flare-up commonly develops over era, involving a byzantine manage of increasing airway obstruction purchase Starlix cheap. All children with asthma have airways that are angry, which means that they swell and construct lots of thick mucus. In uniting, their airways are also extraordinarily susceptive, or hyperreactive, to sure asthma triggers.
When exposed to these triggers, the muscles surrounding the airways exhibit to tighten, which makes the already clogged airways consistent narrower prescription Phentermine. Things that trigger flare-ups conflict from person to person. Some mutual triggers are exercise, allergies, viral infections, and smoke.
So an asthma flare-up is caused away three momentous changes in the airways:
- swelling of the lining of the airways,
- excess mucus that results in congestion and mucus "plugs" that book caught in the narrowed airways,
- bronchoconstriction, which refers to the tightening of the muscles circumjacent the airways.

During an asthma flare-up, kids may undergo coughing, wheezing (a carefree whistling vigorous in the strongbox when breathing), thorax ' tightness, increased generosity rate, sweating, and shortness of breath.
HEY HI HO WHOA HELLO THERE
Autumn with the non mackdaddy werewolf:
BEST.PICTURE.EVER.
this butterfly/moth thing basically ruined my entire night, I kid you not:
(i spy with my little eye an ICED COFFEE)
It took me forever to figure out how to take a picture with Angie's phone, lol
little big truck and big big truck:
right when the roller coaster stopped (still strapped in!):
Metallica day<3
I guess there are a few reasons, but I want to start by saying it is NOT because I am secretly a boy (eddiec, I know you've had a bad dream about this lately, and I just wanted to let you know it isn't THAT).
The first reason is, it's okay before and after school, when there aren't kids, but when school is in session... I don't wanna pee with a 2nd grader next to me (damn grown-up bathrooms being so damn far away!). You know? That's weird. As a grown-up, it's weird for me, and also, I don't EVER want to be accused of doing ANYTHING not-appropriate.
The second reason is...and it's not just this school, but apparently all schools... kids no longer know how to flush. Parents aren't teaching this skill. Everyday, without fail, if I got into the multi-stalled bathroom, I will get the privilege of seeing the remnants of someone else's bathroom time. 9 times outta 10 just yellow, but... not delicious either way.
Which brings me to my next 'weirds me out' part: A LOT of the time, there's pee in the toilet, but no toilet PAPER. In a toilet designed exclusively for girls. Are they not even doing that part? shudders
Now that I've found the 'adults only' bathroom that has a heater... this will be a non-issue because why go ANYwhere else?, but....eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew!
Lu's last day was Friday. I miss him terribly already. I hope his new family treats him well. I also hope that they adopt him and mean it. He's a tough little guy, but a lot of parents have tough kids and stick it out with them, even when it seems impossible. He needs the stability, the knowledge of, "even when I'm at my worst, I don't have to fear that they're going to dump me. This is my family, and they love me".
I got to see D(M) on Friday as I was leaving and his mom was picking him up from after school. It was so wonderful to get to hug him. I hope he is doing well at his new program. I have NO IDEA if he's coming back to us when the course of treatment is done. I don't know if we're enough...dammit.
There's talk of 2 or 3 new students for my program. I am a bit panicked, but have to just take what is given.
Time to go make some copies and straighten up a bit.
