Remember when life was simple? When your children actually worshiped the ground you walked on? That look of longing in their eyes when they saw you walk into a room?
Remember that?
You were the end all to be all. The God of all Gods. YOU WERE THE SHIT!!!!
You were:
SUPER MOM DAMMIT!!!!
You had your shit on lock down. Nobody couldn’t tell you NOTHING!
Fast forward 12 years later and…………this happens:
Pre pubescent teenage angst starts to rear it’s ugly head! You get the rolling of the eyes; the seclusion; slamming of doors; stomping; and talking back.
Well my fellow sisters of Kingdom Mommydum…..I’m there. Princess Morgan has been jacked up a total of three times this month. I don’t know where it’s coming from or who, but this chick is testing me and testing me hard.
A couple of weeks ago after coming home from a long day, the girls got themselves situated and started on their homework. I decided that I would start on some laundry. I went to Morgan’s room (door locked *blank strare*)
Me: Morgan, open the door. I need your clothes from your hamper.
Morgan: I’m getting dressed.
*blank stare*
Me: I’ll give you ten minutes.
Morgan: Ok
Fastforward ten minutes later
Me: Morgan. Open the door!
Morgan: I’m dressin!!! (had the audacity to have a “tone”)
Neck cocked to the side with a *blank stare*
Now, I’m debating on whether I should knock the goddamn door down and swoop on her ass like a hawk or just sit there and be calm.
I chose to be calm, I am NOT cute in orange and I DON’T want to end up being Franquisha’s bitch for 5 to 10 years!
The door opens and I calmly walked in and got what I needed. I forgot something and turned around to check her closet for any missed clothing.
Morgan: What you doin in my closet?
Ok, now, I promised with the strength of Jesus and everything that was in me……..It was ON! I jacked her ass up against the wall and conveniently reminded her (in my Julia Sugarbaker tone) that:
1) She’s only a TEMPORARY resident in my house.
2)Her little ass don’t pay nor does she contribute to my mortgage payment. Hence, exercising her “tenants” rights to lock her door whenever she wants has been terminated.
3)No punishment. Talking back calls for a trip to the woodshed…….Southern style!
Later that night we had “the talk” again. I gave her the reasons why I had to handle her the way I did and that I was not going to tolerate being talked back to or disrespected in my house. I think she got the point. If she didn’t there will be more jacksups to come!
I’m not built for this shit! Just think, I have 2 more girls!! DAYUM!
You notice anything strange about this picture? Anyone?
You think he knows what today is? I hear “President for Dummies” is on sale at Barnes and Nobles. Better forward him a copy, it’s the least I could do.
My faith in all things government related is somewhat dormant at the moment. Is it me or is it that when someone is given a badge, they automatically catch a case of Goditus?
I can understand the stress and frustration a job can bring, but damn!
Brian Sterner, a 34 year old paralyzed man who was brought in on charges of fleeing a police officer because of a traffic violation was……..well, I’ll let you take a look for yourself:
I’m not discounting the fact that what he did was wrong because he was. Wheelchair or not, he broke the law. This however did not warrent the cruel and inhumane treatment that he recieved from this Florida officer, who literally tossed him out of his wheelchair and onto the floor like a rag doll. What really pisses me off is the way he was handled back into his wheelchair by the Jolly Green Dyke and left there possibly hurt and definitely humiliated. I for damn sure smell a BIG lawsuit on the horizon.
Charlette Marshall-Jones (Jolly Green Dyke) faces charges of abuse of a disabled person, a third-degree felony. If convicted, she could be sent to prison for five years.
Couldn’t help it ya’ll this almost put me to tears.
