when my kids were young

 I let them stay up til 10 o'clock or a little later cuz I wanted to be with them,

plus they were in activities almost every night that I took them to.  Beth and I needed

to read together,

plus both of them needed to bathe before bed.  well, they didn't seem tired

that late at night.

I let them sleep til 7:30 a.m. and they were the last kids to school,

sometimes, well, usually, late.  but we did rush around to get there.

the school is a block away.  We walked.

I see these kids at Pheasant Run going to school at 7 a.m.

do they go to bed at 8 p.m.  we weren't even home from activities by then.

my mother may or may not have gotten on me about it, but I blew it off.

the teachers said something to Beth too, and she said they said something,

blew that off too.  I'm sure in their eyes it was another reason for me to look bad.

never got a call though.  not sure what I would have said.  hmmm.

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
