Say it here cause you can't say it directly- the get it off your chest thread (Part 1)

(Me jumping up and down) College finals are done and she is graduating end of the week. Is this really happening?
I am so proud of her.
Forecast is calling for heavy rains all week. Hoping for a nice sunny day on graduation. <:-P
Thank you cc buddies for being by my side.

oh my God, daughter is being invited to White House, way to go kid!

My baby graduated on Friday and had her first day at her job today. OMG!

What a colossal waste of time it was to write that manual. Trying not to feel as if things have taken a nosedive, but itā€™s difficult.

Iā€™m sad. The friend we wanted to take to dinner recently died. I only found out by sleuthing the obits. Heā€™s a friend of both H and BIL. Heā€™s been ill for some time and was a wonderful man. :((

Our city council is NUTS!!!

ā€œI need to eatā€
ā€œI know I need to eatā€
So donā€™t tell me now that we went to dinner for me. We spent way to much time picking a restaurant
with your need for bland food in Santa Fe tonight. You did not give me a choice as I wanted a chili
rellenos and I told you that all day. Yes, I would have happily gone alone, especially as I could take a
Lyftt home. Everything about our meals resolves around you.

You know that you have been called out and you donā€™t know what to do.
I am calmly finished and there is not a thing you are capable of doing to change my mind.
Yes, that YOU are capable of doing because you operate as if you are 15 yrs old.
I feel better than I have in years.

There is nothing quite like the sound of a cat throwing up a hair ball at 2amā€¦ :-L

RIP running streak of 1045 days. I doubt Iā€™ll ever see that again. Now to fix this pain in the butt.

Thank you, Jen Hatmaker!

If you complain about your Motherā€™s Day gift every year, you are at high risk of getting nothing in the futureā€¦less effort for the giver, same result.

That Alfa Romeo ad on television makes me want to throw up ā€“ the one with the seductive woman saying, reeeeeeeeally slowly, ā€œIf you donā€™t want to be seduced, look away! Look away!!ā€

flowers? cards? texts? I actually kind of wanted the ā€œworldā€™s okayest momā€ mug and the ā€œlump of coalā€ erasers :slight_smile:

Must.Not.Make.Joke.About.Bringing.Collage.Of.Lizards.

Canā€™t wait to see how next yearā€™s acceptances go. I think quite a few people will be surprised by the outcomes.

I really love it when adults root against kids. Thatā€™s my favorite.

A lot of negativity posted about todayā€™s youth . I have the utmost confidence and respect for them , itā€™s the adults that Iā€™m most worried about .

Two AP tests down, one SAT2 to go! Well done, kiddo, for your work ethic!

You are headed in the right direction, keep on chugging!

You leave tomorrow for a trip to see your bf, for 6 days, which is roughly 1/5 of the amount of days we get to spend with you before you leave to go to your summer internship. Donā€™t ask me to be happy about it.
