I have been up since 4am, I tossed and turned all night long and when I rolled out of bed, went for my morning stroll and came home for some coffee…this song was stuck in my head...


I didn’t have a fight with my baby last night, but I did go to bed feeling bad about some conflicts that happened last night between my wifey and my eldest son (he is 22) who lives with us; my wifey was upset because my son, who is starting to exhibit some symptoms of being bi-polar, acted inappropriately regarding his lack of respect for our personal space. The wifey freaked out because she suspects he might have gone through my drawers looking for, I don’t know what (all I have is underwear and socks in that drawer), probably either money or weed. He couldn’t find any because there was none and I doubt personally he did this at all, but then again, when I was his age, I did some stupid things, moments of really poor judgments, then I would lie to cover it up…my wifey was livid, saying “I’ll kick his ass out of here if he lying to us!”

            “You don’t know for sure…” I defended him, “I mean, yeah he lied about it, but I think it’s more than just not respecting us, I think he has a problem that needs to be addressed…he needs help, not threats.”

            “I won’t put up with that shit!” she seethed, “It’s no wonder his girlfriend or mother won’t have him any more!”

            “Just stop, alright?” I said sharply, “I’ll talk to him when he comes home.”

            “If he comes home…” she quipped, “I bet he’ll blow us off all week!”

            “He’ll be back Tuesday.” I said firmly. He is staying in Evanston at his mother’s house so he can care for her two dogs for a few days. My mother comes to town on Wednesday and I know my son won’t let her down and he will be back for her visit. I’m glad he’s going to be out of here for a couple days, although I already miss him, it’s maybe best to let some time go by and for my wifey to simmer down some. I didn’t want to go into the whole mess last night, by this time is was after 11pm and I was falling asleep so I kissed the wifey and said, “Good night, I Love You.”

            “G’night.” She turned on the tele, “Wake me by 8, okay?”

            “Yes, dear…” I rolled over and quickly fell asleep. I would not stay asleep however, like I said, I tossed and turned and got out of bed early in the morning.  


Today is going to be a busy day, as is most of the weekend but I will be back here on and off over the weekend. I appreciate your visit today and I wish you all a very pleasant weekend…take care, be well and stay care!

man, I've been up early cause of this weird weather!

Wish our weather would get weird, it's been nothing but hot and sticky for weeks!

Hope all settles down and that you guys have a great weekend!

Thanks...we're getting set for a great week!

Think the best of him, works better then projecting all the negative into his spin cycle. Positive thinking, works...love to all.

Right, I need to keep a mind open to that...positive stuff into his spin cycle.

My son is almost 25 and if I kept thinking of him as he was in Jr. High, I'd be really messing with his progress.

hope things get a little better.  If he is developing bi-polar, hope you are able to get him the help he needs.

Me too...I just recogonize a lot of the early symptoms because of my own history and I hope I'm not projecting this onto him as an excuse for something else...

Oh my...hope it all turns out fer th' best. I remember my sister havin' similar issues when she was young, an' always fought with my parents. So I can vaguely sympathize with ya on that....but th' weather? It woke my up last night from all th' thunder! But at least our AC works now, so no complaints.

Hope yer weekend is a good one, DP! Take care!

Thanks Sean...thinkgs have calmed down for the time being and I think it will work out, but only time will tell...glad you got the A/C going again!

Yes, time will tell. Not a lotta people like hearin' that, but it's th' truth. Gotta let it work itself out. Yes, th' A/C is workin' again! Life, as I know it, is cool now! {#basic-laugh.gif}

I can relate, as I'm usually up around 4:30am every morning. I really enjoy the peace and serenity of the early mornings. All the world seems to have come to a stop and quiet solitude reigns supreme.

I agree...the start of a new day is a beautiful thing!
