Ugh!

Did my Dad ever loose his shit when it came to his kids? As far as I can tell the answer is no. And I don't get that? Tonight I made dinner and got a seemingly well behaved group of kids to the table then...One child wouldn't eat because he didn't have the exact plate and utensils that he wanted another one proceeded to sneeze all over the serving bowl of pasta then a third proclaimed she wasn't eating anything, due to the sneeze sauce and who could really blame hwr. The first just kept getting louder crying and shouting while the third became increasingly obstinate. Then I lost my shit. Then the only child who had been good started crying and so did another. They were scared of the yelling. Ugh! What a mess!

Homework!

Yikes! The amount of homework this poor 6th grader has is beyond belief.  So far she is keeping her emotions under control for the most part.  I'm really proud of her. I think we should be able to get her in a groove so she needs less hand holding.  At least I hope so...

I'm ordained!

It's free to become a minister of the universal life church.  I think it took a total of two mouse clicks!

From the Website:

The Universal Life Church has only two tenets:

To promote freedom of religion
To do that which is right

Only a monster couldn't agree with that!

Why not become a minister!

Anyone need to get married?

Get ordained online.

Bathrooms.

I don't think more bathrooms would make much of a difference with how I feel. Yes I'd love to have a master bath and to never have to jockey for bathroom time again. But I would still be dealing with toilets not flushed and children spending hours doing god know what in the bathroom. Those things would still drive me mad!

Sleep please come to me.

When she's not here I can't go to bed.  It's 12:18 AM and everyone is sleeping but me.  I'm as tired as a dog but I hate sleeping in an empty bed.  I know I'm going to be exhausted tomorrow morning, I just fell asleep during a movie but yet I can't get myself to go into my bed.  Time to let the dog out and head up to sleep.  Good night.

One Fan

Apparently I still have one reader.  Thanks sis :)  Perhaps you gave me the kick in the pants I needed to start my blogging again.

Let's see where we go this time.

Strike that reverse it.

No new blog has started at tumbler. There's no time or interest for that shit.

The End (for awhile)

I have to finally give in and admit to myself that Tony-C.blogspot.com has reached stopping point. What began Feb 2004 has finally come to an end six years later. Not bad. Although the last year was pretty slow. As noted in my last post I was going to start taking guitar lessons. The lessons are going great and I'm really enjoying it. When ever there is a quite moment, which is not often enough, the first thing I do is reach for my guitar. I can't stop thinking about playing it is giving me a lot of joy and relaxation. It is definitely a better past time than sinking deep into the Internet which was garnering much too much of my time.

To all my loyal followers I'd like to thank you for keeping up and commenting on occasion.

I hope to reignite Tony-C.blogspot.com someday but for now it must be on hiatus.

Thanks!

Thanksgiving.

I've come to realize that all I really want for my Thanksgiving meal is a huge plate of stuffing smothered in gravy with a small side of mashed potatoes and homemade cranberry sauce. Delicious!

I was afraid to log on to my blog. I thought maybe I had missed a whole month and I think that would have been a first. This entry just makes it in under the wire. There is actually a lot to write about. My new job and the events leading up to me deciding to take it. Lots of fun and madness with the kids. But I'm not going to write about any of that stuff.

I'm going to start taking guitar lessons. Targeting next week for lesson number one. It was in second grade that I declared to my mother that I wanted to take lessons. She didn't say no but what she did say was "If your are still interested in taking lessons when you are in third grade then you can." To her credit when third grade rolled around she asked me if I was still interested and I said no. This decision has bothered me for my whole life and I'm finally going to do something about it. So I'm taking my tin ear and bad timing to a pro and hoping that with some coaching and a lot of practice he can help to locate the "Guitar Hero" in me. ROCK AND ROLL!
