TEENAGERS!!!!

Can i just say that some days i really don't like teenagers! I know that i was one once but i find it hard to believe that i acted like one! LOL Here are a few things that are really on my nerves!

1-You spend time making a menu, go to the store to buy said items on menu, come home put items away, then get them out again on their day to make what is on your menu. Now let it be said that of course NO ONE gives you ideas for said menu- no you are on your own for that! So you come home spend time making dinner so that when the whole family arrives on your door step dinner is done! (At our home that is between 5:30-6:00pm) They come running in to only meet you in the kitchen just as you are serving up the last of your EIGHT! plates to either A- ask you what you are making cause it looks great! B-to ask you what you are making cause it looks GROSS! C- to tell you they are NOT EATING! cause what you made doesn't look good! D- to tell you that so in so in the family is not going to be home for dinner! or my personal favorite from Tony after he ate his dinner was E- This tasted a lot better than i thought it did!!!!!! You know what! make your own DAM dinner!!! and yes i swore!
if you haven't guessed that happened last nite and the dinner was HOMEMADE- chicken and wild rice soup! Of course they all wanted desert which was my pumpkin bars i made for homemaking and of course to top it all off the one that wasn't home came home so i had to heat it all up again and the one that wasn't eating decided that no one died from eating it so they would eat!! TEENAGERS!

2-Another personal favorite of mind is the water taker- this is the one in the house that has no sense that maybe some one else would like to have a hot shower! They get in and i am sure have a nice hot enjoyable shower with no regard that other people and by that i mean ME! would like to have HOT WATER! so they get in for 40 MINS! So when i get in i have barely warm to cold water- yep that is how i love to start my day!

3-Another great thing about teenagers is they have no regard to that you might want to have i don't know YOUR OWN LIFE! they get real snippy if they think you might be gone enjoying yourself for to long what about dinner? or what if they need something? or what if you are not around to take them here or there on a moments notice?

4- And last but not least they have no regard to that you might want to sleep! There are two things involved in this one. A- hey i know it is like 10pm but i need like 3 different things washed and dried by 7:30am and they all are different and can't go in the same load so can you stay up half the nite and make sure it gets done! B- I need to be up by 6am (I know you stayed up half the nite for me BUT i need to be up by 6am) oh and by the way - i can't get up to my alarm so YOU have to get up to get me up and don't think i will get up the 1st time you come get me up! That is just plain SILLY! it will be like the 10000 time you come it which by then will be like 7am and now it is all your fault cause i wasn't up by 6am!

Yeah you've got to love TEENAGERS!

3 year olds!!!!! just remember we all feel the same about our kids no matter what stage of the game we are in. Our complaints may be different but the feelings the same. Figure it all out so that when mine are teenagers you can help me out.

Yikes! I should have gotten me one of those "bonzai" babies- mine won't stop growing and then she'll be a teenager someday as well.

Well I had to find your blog after your hilarious stories last night. Good luck with motherhood! You're welcome to take a peek at my blog too, if you're THAT bored!

Are you kidding? :) You were always in trouble as a teenager. I was only 8 years old but I remeber that much!
