sometimes infanticide really does seem like an option

Yes yes I'm joking ......GOD !!!! teenagers. !!!!!

Both my boys came home in absolute **** moods yesterday .....guess the bunny who copped it????

Now my boys are actually good kids no trouble with either BUT ....now we have the undies escapades!!!

I get a text "***** is wearing my undies again"!!! I text back "as long as hes' not wearing mine I don't care"...................and the night pretty much carried on from there. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

now the arguments over all this kept on until I said .. ENOUGH!!

but it then led on to other stuff that obviously has built up over time .....to the point of .. "well if you really want to know I can't ****ing stand the woman!! and I hate him" ...oh god!! that one floored me.

so all in all I had a dreadful evening with my sons last night but all was good this morning .

oh and by the way I'm buying them both new undies and they've made me promise to embroider their initials on them .

how things come about eh?

Is 'undies' an Aussie term ?

Cos we Brit men wear pants, women wear undies..................just saying.

Sounds like the average happy home, or a plot to get some new underwear.

ummm jocks .....the term has changed over the years ..apparently I'm supposed to buy "boxer briefs" Not boxers!! not briefs!! but boxer briefs. I have my orders. pfft.

and all this is going on and I'm getting phone calls ....."you don't have to put up with the way they are talking to you" and I'm like "well if you were here you'd understand what's going on" ...I would have liked to slam the phone down but that's hard with a mobile phone.

which leads me to another point ....how the hell do you get satisfaction of hanging up on someone with a mobile phone? it just doesn't cut it really does it?

the solution is to 'accidentally' hit keys in their ear, apologize and then do it again...lol

I have three teenage boys in my house again....and I'm loving it-of course the laundry is a challenge due to all of them being the same size and all wear the same type of clothes (blue jeans and t-shirts) They also all prefer the "boxer briefs" and have old boxers that get worn by the three of them at times. I announced last night that I will happily clean the laundry and fold it, but it goes in a pile and THEY are responsible for going through it to find their clothes! Thankfully they don't care if the other one wears their clothes for the most part. They have their favorites and they know not to go there....otherwise its fair game.

The joys of motherhood....SIGHHHHH

that's what I do, I fold their clothes but the socks and undies are entirely their business.

floppy, I normally just say "did you hear that?..that ditditdit I think my battery is running out . better go " But I like that key thing ....

Delorean? how old are your kids a the moment?

Not totally off topic, as under crackers have been mentioned several times........

My most recent purchase of under pants have the label that normally resides at the rear waist, attached to the left hand side waist band.

This is not a problem until you dress in the dark.

Whats happening to the world ?

I have a basket in the laundry room, it is where socks go- if you need socks-thats where you find them. Every once in a while I will feel like being the "good mom" and match a bunch of socks to be nice...but well yeah that doesn't happen often. I fold the "undies/boxers/tighty whities/undies/delicates---whatever you want to call them...they are good about dispersing accordingly...lol

My little fella just turned 4. So I've a few years before the dreaded teens.

Right that's it I'm out of here today. If I don't leave for a break I'm going to kick my son out .

He can take two days off school to clean his room and for good measure the rest of the house as well!!!!

The eldest boy is coming down this weekend to have a bit of a talk with him. (translates "kick up the arse" )

My youngest and I are going on a little break down to Port Campbell. We're going to swim and dine and generally have some fun and have some 'US' time . Whilst the other one will be the man of the house that he insists he is.

Port Campbell, Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia OMG!!! Sounds VERY similar to what goes on at my house. I had to have the oldest talk to the middle son and my youngest and I will "get away" to have fun times...amazes me how we live the same life in different countries!

I think millions of women could see this and nod their heads .....great time though .

method behind the madness though . youngest son doesn't do anything ....sits in his room plays video games and reads (reading is a good thing unless it has the same 'escape from reality' that video games do. middle son gets everything because he is manipulative and is into things like sport and tradey stuff and the rest ..two different personalities ...

anyway background ...youngest son is suicidal ....NO HE"S NOT!!! He's just him ......so the last time i wanted to take him to this place he cracked up crying and had a hissy fit ...fine I say ..but we sign a contract...if you stay on your own this time you have to sign a contract that states if I go somewhere and I want you to come then you have to come (little more involved than that cause I have fine print) ...so this time he had no choice ...ever seen that little grin on a boy that knows his mother outsmarted him? teenagers love you playing their games and winning. So I have a boy that was punished and left at home to do the housework and thinks everything just comes to him (was taught what actually goes into him living hte good life) and another that gets all the jobs because it's easier than going out (well he had to get off his butt) ...stuffed them both up ..... and they have been both in one room having a good old chat ....my job is done ..for this week anyway .

Oh and by the way .....he's started writing again while we were away .....okay maybe he's writing about serial killers coming to take away his mother ...but he's writing again ......I'm happy with that.
