Many people have a lot of problems in their lives that seem like too much to handle. Some people turn to drugs when this happens. If you are one of those people who have become dependent on drugs maybe you’re ready to take a step and admit you have a problem. In order to beat this you will need to have addiction treatment. It is too hard to do on your own.
Do you or someone you know need to admit that you have a problem and get substance abuse treatment? It can be difficult to see someone you love suffering from an addiction problem. Or if it is you, it can be hard to admit that you may have a problem. But once you admit that you have a problem there is help for you. Do a search online and you will find the right place for you, good luck, and stay strong.
When we bought my car in 2004 I was so excited to be owning a new car. I have never had a brand new car before, so it was just thrilling. It came with the usual warranty- 3 years or 36,000 miles. At the time we were doing a lot of driving to see Miss B and we put on the 36,000 miles very quickly.
Now 5 years later I don’t worry about it much. We live in the area were our family is. Plus my car has been very good for us. We took of it, and it took care of us. I just hope that it lasts a few more years, that would be great. With the economy as bad as it is, we all need to take care of our stuff.
I posted a little while ago about an idiotic parent I saw at the mall a couple of weeks ago. Shortly after that I saw an even bigger idiotic parent.
There was a young couple (a very young couple… probably teenagers) with a little baby. I’m not good at judging how old babies are but this baby was little- not yet sitting up on his own. So, I saw the male (I don’t know if he was the father or just a boyfriend???) going to the top of the a very tall twisty slide.
(As a brief aside- I know that I am overprotective- but I don’t let Peanut go on those very tall twisty slides because she is always trying to turn her body around. If she gets turned around and goes down all twisted she could end up hurt- so we stick to the toddler area, as I’m sure is intended by the creators of the equipment.)
So, I thought- wow that baby is little to be going down that slide. Considering you’re supposed to be careful with babies necks and heads, etc. I assumed the male was going to put the baby on his lap to go down the slide and even thought that seemed a little risky.
I was wrong.
The mother sat down at the bottom of the slide and said, “Now lay him down. Make sure his head is on the slide.”
The male grinned and said, “I have no idea how to do this.”
The mother looked around proudly and said, “Just put him down and let him go.”
I’m pretty sure that my mouth hung open in shock as he let the baby go. The baby looked scared to me, not like he enjoyed it at all.
I seriously considered calling child protective services but when I turned around they were gone.
Christmas is quickly approaching. There are so many things to take care of with the Christmas season on its way. Just thinking about everything I need to makes me start to feel anxious. I can barely get things done that I need to do on a normal day. How in the world am I going to get everything done for the holidays? I guess I’ll just stop sleeping.
Anyways- while it’s on my mind I’m going to write some of the things I need to do. First of all- I need to make a list. I love making lists and getting everything written down that I want to do. That way I won’t forget anything. Plus, crossing things off of my list gives me a sense of accomplishment. One of the main things on my list will be to make a list of the people I am buying for and what I want to buy for them. So, essentially I will be writing “make list” on my list. Crazy, right?
One thing I do want to get taken care of right away is our Christmas cards. I’d like to figure out what we want and order them. That way when I have a few minutes here and there I can work on our cards.
Well, I’m off to work on my list. How about you? What do you need to get done?
