Mean girls

I am always amazed how mean and catty teenage girls can be. Who am I kidding? I know adults who fit still fit that description. My youngest daughter Foo Foo(15) has had Regina making her life miserable since November. Anyway they can make her cry or get upset, they do. She is by no means an angel. We have had a awful year and a half with her. ( I'll blog more on that when I get a chance. It's going to be a really long post.) It started with her and a good friend having a disagreement. Nothing major. Until Regina got involved. Why I have no idea. The good friend joined forces with a couple of other girls. They honestly go out of their way to make not only Foo's life horrible but now Tornado's. Ugh.  Tornado(16) decided to be a great big sister and stand up for Foo and now they have other girls not talking to her. Today the mean girls verbally went after Foo and Tornado had enough of the crap and reported it to the guidance counseler. They want Foo to make a written statement about what happened. She doesn't want to because she is afraid of what the girls will do next. I can't say I blame her. I don't want to see the mean girls in trouble. I just want it to stop. The thing that is so frustrating is a month ago a boy from the high school committed suicide because he was bullied. WTHeck are these girls thinking????? Did I mention that the good friend's parents are the ones who camp with us?? Sigh. Advice? Anyone?

Mindless Mondays

We didn't have an exciting Monday here. Not that we ever do. Honestly Mondays are the worst day of the week for us. Some odd reason teenagers don't like getting up early on a Monday. HAHA! Bubby and I had company today. My youngest daughter(15) was home sick with allergies. I thought about sending her to school but you know what happens once you take allergy medicine. You pass out. I figured she was better off at home sleeping than in school drooling on her desk and the teacher stopping class so everyone could watch her sleep. Not that  that has ever happened to me. ;)

The little guy and I went grocery shopping. That is always an experience! Shopping and being 3 years old do not go together. He's in a new phase where he just says whatever is on his mind. Including asking why a lady has hot pink hair. I think I have tried every distraction I can think of to get his mind off why someone has no teeth,hair,chains hanging off their wallets, and big bellies. If anyone has anymore ideas,please send them my way. I pretty much have to avoid going to the store that sells everything. You never know who/what you will see there. HAHA!

After g.shopping we went to Dunkin Donuts and got our free coffee. Did everyone get that in their newspaper 2 weeks ago? A free Iced Coffee drink on Mondays for several weeks. I love it!!!!! I am a total coffee drink freak. I'm not much of a soda drinker but coffee.....YUM!

Sharing

I realize I haven't written in a while. I have been struggling with things since I started this blog. How much do you share or not share? Being a mom to 3 teenager girls, I am aware of what happens when you share too much. After a lot of soul searching have decided that holding back is not who I am. So like it or not I am going to be sharing the good, the bad and the ugly. If you are parents of teenagers you know exactly what I am talking about! Look out world..........I'm back!
