Never explain yourself. Your friends don't need it and your enemies won't believe it
Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came, and never left your side.
It is the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.
I discovered who were my real friends. I just wished that wasn't the way I had to discover.
..I am sooooo annoyed, upset, and frustrated at the moment. Normally I would never write a blog about this but I need to vent and release ALL my feelings. And I don't want to complain to anyone but my blog.
So, if you don't care to hear about drama, backstabbers, and liars then turn away and go read a more positive blog! ha!
If you're still reading, you might want to take a potty break, grab a beverage, and sit down and enjoy the ride!
I don't even know where to begin..I have a hundred things on my mind and I am so peeved and worked up I'm not sure I can even put this into words that one would understand, so bare with me.
I am so sick of this town we live in, it's a decent size but yet small(25,000) but it's small enough that everyone knows everything about everyone. I'm sure every small town has this but I swear our town just feeds off of drama. It's nuts!
I am soooo thankful I have my own little family now where I don't need to go out and be a bar fly with the rest of this town. I just don't get how people can go out every weekend, down to the bars, let alone parents, mothers to be exact...how can you leave your children home every weekend, especially when you just had a baby a month ago. I see it all. Now, don't get me wrong I believe parents need to get out and do their own thing away from their kids but you know there's other activities out there then bar hoping. It saddens me when I see "friends" of mine wasted and posting embarrassing pictures of themselves and others...what will they say when their kids come across those? If I was a 12 year old and found pictures of my mother wasted, dancing on tables, and being trampy I would think it was okay to do that..seen as though my mother is one of my biggest role models.
I guess I am just upset that in order to hang out with my friends that it has to be downtown..why can't we go out for coffee at Starbucks? Bake cookies with the kids? scrapbook? go shopping? take the kids to the zoo? go to the spa, get our nails done?
I just don't see how you can feel good about yourself spending $30 a night on alcohol, making a fool of yourself, and then having people talk about you..wondering where your children are.
Maybe this is just me that feels this way, am I just a loser?! LOL
Another thing that is bothering me is friends talking about all their other friends, seriously...that is soooooo high school, maybe even juniorhighish! And this is why I like to keep to my family. I just don't have the time for drama, I don't understand why people like to stir things up. It's hard to be friends with someone that is full of drama and drag me into theirs. Now, I love being a friend and listening when a friend needs me but when you're talking constantly about your baby daddy and how he's a loser, he don't see his kids, yada yada yada...well maybe you should move on.
I consider myself a semi classy woman, I don't want to be associated with someone that needs numerous DNA tests to see who the father of their child is. That's just GROSS. I want to be friends with someone who is strong, confident, and can be themselves. I don't want a friend that has to follow and make decisions based on what everyone else is doing, I just can't get along with someone like that.
It's sad to say that I don't have many true friends, they have all hurt me in some way or another..and I have done nothing but be a true friend to them!
I am a VERY down to earth, easy to get along with person! :o)
Sorry about all this rambling...I could just keep going but I need to get my girls fed, supper should be ready! :o)
Good for you if you've sat through this entire post and read it!
You the hell do you think you are to call me or any other NORMAL mother a "bad mom" just for going out once in while! You dont know me,but I think that entire post was bull shit and hurtful! You call yourself classy! WOW! Classy girls dont put other people down for their parenting ways! and on that note, I dont think it was very "classy" of you to take your sick kids to the science museum! So talk what you wanna talk and do as you wanna do but I recomend that next time you might wanna choose your words a little more wisely and remember that now when you run to go talk shit about me (which you will) you might wanna think twice about who you go running to!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your entire blog Court-
ReplyDeleteIts one thing to go out every once and a while, but come on every weekend.... even worse both days of every weekend? Get real and grow up we are parents and you are correct saying if we are to set any type of example that we need to think before we act. Someday these ppl will look back and regret those weekends they were with their children. The years go wayyy to fast and that is time you can NEVER get back. :) Love you COurt and even if I didn't I would still 110% agree with what you have said!!
were not* with their children
ReplyDelete..Sara, please don't go posting untruthful comments on my blog. I know way too much about you, too much in fact I told you our friendship was drifting due to differences.
ReplyDeleteEveryone has opinions and I like to voice them on MY own personal blog, if you get offended then get off my page and pay attention to your kids!
And whoever Anonymous is...thank you for the support and love! I appreciate it, knowing I am not the only one who feels this way!
Maybe my frustrations and hormones got the best of me, leading me to write this post and causing some hurtful feelings but then if someone is offended by this, my only conclusion is because they are guilty of the above words. Just saying..
