Been Busy

I'm fine and at home. As most of you know. I've been working around the apartment. You know men can get! lol. I came home and I wasn't a very happy person, so I've been dealing with some bullshit.

What could that be, you ask? Well, when I left I specifically told my in-laws (Hephaestus's mother, brother and his wife) that if they wanted Jugalo or Hephaestus to watch the boys while I was gone, they needed to do it over at THIER house, not mine. I have alot of valuables and, well, noone watches those kids as well as I do (no one is as good as "mommy"). (I love you, honey but you know its true as well.) Come to find out, that on more than one occasion, they'd just show up at the apartement (my place) and drop them off. And that on an occasion or two, Jugalo and Hephaestus would be sleeping from working all night, and they'd just leave them in the living room unattended. Was told they didn't even TRY to wake up Jugalo or Hephaestus. So, yes, I'm very pissed off. I have keep sakes that my sister gave to me that are broken. Along with books having the pages ripped out and have been chewed up. And various items just destroyed. Now, I KNOW that Jugalo and Hephaestus didn't do these actions. Thier grownups. It was the boys. Hephaestus didn't want to tell me while I was away because he didn't want to upset me with all that I had going on up there....

Last night I made Chicken & Dumplings for Dinner. Hephaestus and Jugalo and Sakura absolutely loved them! It was the best so far. Hephaestus said I made it better than his momma's! (Go me!) and I had make Chocolate Gravy (if you've never had it, you are missing a real southern treat) yesterday for him for breakfast, and he said THAT too was better than H’sMom's. I'm so proud of myself. *go me* I'm getting better and better!!! Then again, according to some people, being a better cook than H’sMom isn't that hard *cough cough* DAMN!

So, enough braggin on myself and my culinary expertise. I heard this song on the way home from Chicago. Caught like a little bit of it, and wasn't sure what I thought of it. It came on lastnight on the VH1 country hits channel on the TV and heard it all the way through. I LOVE IT!!! Totally describes my feelings towards quite a few people these days. And the next time they call, I might just say "My Give a Damn is Busted, shut up and dont call again!"

For your reading pleasure I present to you!...........

Jo Dee Messina - My Give A Damn's Busted Lyrics

(1st verse)

Well you filled up my head,
With so many lies.
Twisted my heart
Til something snapped inside.
I'd like to give it one more try
but my give a damn's busted.

You can crawl back home
say you were wrong,
stand out in the yard
cry all night long.
Well go ahead and water my lawn.
My give a damn's busted.

(chorus)

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Nope...
Sorry...
Nothin'

(2nd verse)

You can say you've got issues.
You can say you're a victim.
It's all your parents fault,
After all you didn't pick em
Well maybe Oprah's got time to listen.
My give a damn's busted.

(*Well let me get this straight now)
Your therapist said
It was all just a phase
A product of the prozac
And your co-dependent ways
So uhh ... who's your new neighbor these days
My give a damn's busted.

(chorus)

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Eeh-Eeh

(3rd verse)

(*Oh you're tellin' me)
It's a desperate situation,
No tellin' what you'll do.
If I don't forgive you,
You say your life is through.
Well honey... give me somethin' I can use.
(My give a damn's busted.)
(*Ahh you knew I was gonna say that, didn't ya.)

My give a damn's busted (*ha ha)
My give a damn's busted
Honey trust me
My give a damn's busted yeahhh ...
OOOH
My give a damn's busted yeahhh
(*You wanna do what?)(*ha ha ha ha ha)
My give a damn's busted
(*Get the party started thats what we'll do)
My give a damn's busted
(*I'm not done honey, trust me)
My give a damn's busted
(*Been there, done that)
My give a damn's busted
My give a damn's busted
