I think I may have scared off the mail lady. I wonder if it was just the meeting her at the box every time I knew I had a package. Or maybe it was the day she only handed me one box and I reminded her there should be two (she did have it, it was too big to fit in her sorting box, so it was on the floor). What probably pushed her over the edge was the day I got home from the PO and saw that she had left one of those "We need your signature" notes, so I chased her down two streets over to get my package. That was probably it. At any rate, here it is, nearly 5, and she usually comes between 11 and 1. I wonder if it's too late to leave cookies in the box for her...
 
LOL- I have sent my kids to the mail box 3 or 4 times in a single day waiting-

and today- my oldest- and possibly the first I will bury, went down there, he came home with 2 envelopes- I KNEW I should be getting something- ANYTHING- I told him to go back and make sure- then told him he better not be lying to me- threatened him within an inch of his life-

FInally the ungrateful, spoiled brat lifted up his shirt and showed me a package- I almost ripped his shirt while grabbing it and holding him down.-

THEN the little ..... snot had the nerve to laugh and run across the room while dancing around and hold up ANOTHER envelope-

I wasnt quite as nice while I got this one- Its kinda funny to watch your kids faces when they realize that even though they are your size, you are still stronger and faster-

THEN- he had the nerve to STILL laugh at me once I sat back down, and pulled ANOTHER package out of his pants.

He is going to recover- but his siblings now know that you dont get between momma and her vapes- they only think that 400lb momma sow gets testy when her pigs squeal....

Oh this made me laugh and laugh - I can picture it so clearly :)
 
LOL, thank y'all :) being on a board has made me realize how badly I need to start blogging again- Facebook kinda spoilt me to not writing out my stories- LOL

Around here my kids are constantly into something- and the two oldest boys found arm wrestiling recently, so they do it every chance they get. well, my SIL came over the other night, she is about my size, 5 ft 2 or so and 110-120lbs. My boys are about that size at 11 and 12.

Me and her proceeded to whoop them in arm wrestling, AND THEN in leg wrestiling! They were SOOO shocked- I dont know why- she works for a large animal vet and they see me working here on the farm and doing things they cant do yet all the time. But they still swear there is a trick to it we are keeping from them! LOL

Eventually... they WILL outgrow you. As a single mom, if a hormonal teen gets 'out of control' there's not a lot you can do. (It can even be scary)

Here's a great trick from a fellow mom. Snatch up his ear :) My boy is 6'2", and due to health, I have no strength anymore. I'm weak, thin, and usually too nice.... but it doesn't take much to hang on to an ear! The ONE time I had to use this little trick, (cuz he overstepped his boundries), I did this. Worked like a charm. Like I said, only had to do it once. He still was hormonal, he still had outbursts and didn't listen.. but he never again attempted to direct it at me.

He's 20 now, and has come back to respecting his mama again, and wouldn't dream of acting up. :)
