1:39 AM (793 days, 7h, 54min ago)

There are questions among all my ramblings.

Yea, I don't have two pennies to rub together to be going to a casino, but Lady's Night they give ladies $10 to play, and then they have cash drawings from 6pm to 9pm.  Many just have the money added to their card then go to the cashier and get the $10 and leave and then there are us gals that want more then $10 and stick around for the drawings to hear their named called.  Nope not mine, not mom's name.  My aunts name was called Last Week. $125.00. Yeah!!!
Speaking of my aunt.  For me it was a real good Ladies night.  For me, mom, my aunt, and her daughter, my cousin all went in what I call my big truck.  It's  a crew cab.  Mom drove.  She asked me if I wanted to drive, before we picked up my aunt and cousin.
I had to ask mom if she wanted to get there or in the hospital, cause I don't think I could get to the casino and back without having a strong urge to either dive out, or something else stupid.  So mom drove. I sat in the back, and enjoyed chatting with my aunt and cousin.

My cousin's 13yr is now starting to feel the pain and the bruises are showing up.  Didn't like hearing that my cousin's 15yr is cutting herself.  Got to see the cuts.  She did a pretty deep one that is starting to get infected.  The 15yr has spent 2 or 3 times in a mental hospital, but I can say for the 15yr, alcohol is something she will throw in people’s faces, because her uncle, my aunt’s youngest child, my cousin, died in a car wreck.  Losing him was hard on all of us, but it was hardest on the 15yr, because he was the closest thing she had to a father.  No, her bio-father isn’t dead.  My cousin, didn’t tell us who the father was until I accidentally ran into him in town and saw his baby boy in the car seat in the back seat.  He was a family friend and was my best friend in school.  I had no trouble asking him if he ever had sex with my cousin. His mouth dropped open at me, he hemmed and hawed a me for a few minutes.  After me saying a few words that I’m not going to write here, he admitted he had. I told him I thought so, cause his baby in the back seat looked just like my cousin’s baby girl.  His boy is I think a month older then our 15yr.
He came by the house that night and we talked.  I had given him a bomb shell he hadn’t heard anything about my cousin being pg.  Anyway I gathered all my pic’s I had of the baby girl and I let him look at them while we talked.  Told him about my cousin getting married to what I thought at the time was a good man that didn’t care the baby wasn’t his blood. (My cousin, had to threaten her hubby, about telling his 2nd wife that he wasn’t divorced to my cousin, if he didn’t sign the divorce papers.)  Anyway. Back to the 15yr.

She was kidnapped when she was 1 by a male that thought he was the father.  We got her back 2 wks later filthy and a little dehydrated, but other then that the doctors said she was fine, and to young to really remember what happened.  Ok, needless to say I was stupid about mental illness back then.  She may not remember what happened, but she does have a load of mental issues that all point back to those 2wks.  Then growing up seeing the man she called father messing around with women that weren’t her mother, then the man yelling at her telling her she isn’t his.  Not the best way to tell a kid the family secret we had kept for 13yrs.  And then when my cousin tries to contact the father she gets the wife instead of him.  Which resulted in a war in his home because he hadn’t told his wife.  What a **** mess.

Anyway the close call of nearly losing the 13yr, has upset the 15yr deeply.  I’ll say it’s not something I would of figured the 13yr would do, now the 15yr I could see, doing something like that.  I got a hug from the 15yr old tonight after her mother snapped at her to show me her cuts.  Yes the 15yr is taking meds, but I told her where her mother couldn’t hear to come see me when she got a chance, after I told her I would literally go nuts if we lost her.  She isn’t stupid, I told her I needed a hug, and she asked me what’s wrong.  Yes, she goes to see a councilor I think it’s down to 1 a week now.

Yes, the 15yr is on my mind a lot tonight. Won’t start on my male cousin’s widow and her kids.  But I will put it down in paper that if that military husband of her’s come back from his duty in Germany.  I’ll kill him by cutting him into little pieces, starting with his ding a ling.  I tend to see red when I hear about sexual abuse, and her youngest is only 3 months older then my baby girl.

Ok, something up beat to talk about because writing about it is making me angry.
Oh, LOL, I’ll tell you about when I crawled in bed and after I wiggled into the sweet spot in the bed.  I was laying there staring at my hubby’s back taking long deep breaths attempting to get the rest of my muscles relaxed so I might sleep a little.
And I watched this hand come back and bump into me then slide down and pat me on the side of the leg and him roll over to look at me blinking the sleep from his eyes.
“You just coming to bed?”
“Yeap, mom wants to go to town after the mail man runs, maybe paw paw will go too. I guess your up?”  I ask as he is crawling over me.
We have 13 guitars, a banjo, and a lap guitar in our bedroom.  So the only way for him to get out of bed is to crawl over me.
“Yes, why?”  Hubby asked while straddling over me.  I’m still on my side but we are looking in each other’s eyes.
“I get in bed and you crawl out.  It’s becoming a habit I don’t like.”
Ok guys????  I need a truthfully answer.  I will admit 13yrs and I still don’t completely understand MEN!
He has been starting fights, and nit picking me for more then a week.
Why in the world does my hubby think that rubbing against my leg a few times and a smack on the behind is going to get me in the mood????  I never have been one to get in the mood fast, and I’m not one that can let go of my angry that quickly.

Oh, not manic yet, but I am in hyper mode.  LOL, which made mom happy, I vacuumed the floor after I chased Pete (Puppy) out the front door with the vacuum cleaner, and got the steam cleaner ready to clean the floor.  Between potty training baby girl and now Pete the carpet is starting to smell.  Baby girl hates it when we put Pete out to go potty.
OH, I just had a thought put baby’s girl potty seat outside so they can both go at the same time.  LOL maybe they will both get the idea the carpet isn’t the place to go potty.
Any way mom looked at me with an raised eyebrow when I brought the steam cleaner out.  She asked me what I was doing.
“I’m going to do the carpet right there”
“I thought you said you were going to take a bath.”
“I am, but I want to get that area before I go.”
“If you wait, until tomorrow.  We can get that stuff move out and we can move the table and get the whole area.”
The Phone Rang and I had to go answer.  Hubby and son are not home, and it could of been hubby calling on the track phone.
It wasn’t hubby it was some gal asking for wife #1.  I have only meet her 3 times and that is when we were getting married, and her oldest was hubby’s best man, and we don’t have a clue where she moved to when the youngest finished high school.  When I hear wife #1’s name it tongue ties me.  Her name isn’t easy to say and even the gal on the other end was saying her name wrong.  Anyway, I tell the gal that there is no such lululu Phelps here. I guess I mad the gal mad by wiggling my tongue at her cause she lululu me back and said thanks.
Which made me shake my head after I hung the phone back, and then went back to talk to mom.
Ok, I forgot I left the steam cleaner in the middle of the walk way. I stubbed my little toe that now 6hrs later still hurts, and got a up close smell of the carpet. It smells worse then I do, on my worse days.
Well, mom helped me up and helped me limp to the couch, and moved the steam cleaner out of the middle of the floor.  I was hurting to much to think about cleaner the floor before we went out for Ladies night.
OH, hubby and son went to a boy scout meeting.  LOL.
I gave the phone to hubby so the cub scout leader could tell hubby all the details.  LOL
Hubby didn’t write them down, and he didn’t tell son when he came home, that day.  So hubby and son came back before I figured they would be back.  There was a troop meeting when they got there but it wasn’t my son’s age group.  LOL.  Good thing I didn’t delete the # the troop leader called from, so we have a means to contact someone to get details again.
With hubby home that meant I had to get my bath done cause mom was ready to go.
LOL.  I got a raised eyebrow from my hubby when I told him bye walking out the door with a towel wrapped around my head, and hair brush in hand.


If it wasn’t for Ladies night I don’t think I would be taking a bath every week.  But I have took 2 baths this week.  With the dinning room table buried under the stuff that mom is wanting to move out of the front room.  Baby girl, has no place to sit and eat unless it’s the end table we brought in to use for us to play games on cause you don’t miss t.v. until you don’t have a working one.  Any way.  Baby girl put her plate on the couch, and I sat in it, and we were having spaggitti, so when I stood up it ran down the back of my legs, and after feeling those warm slimy worms slid down the back of my legs I had to have a bath. No I’m not talking about real worms, the pasta.  Pete didn’t care he ate the food.  Baby girl wasn’t happy, mom fixed her another plate and I went to take a bath after slapping all the stuff off of me and the floor and putting Pete out to enjoy the food without sister trying to kick him, while mom was fixing the plate.

We haven’t found anything Baby girl won’t eat, and she will try anything she sees us eating. Specially Snake.  Baby girl likes Snake Meat.  Hubby fixed the pound of rattle snake meat we had in the deep freeze for himself.  I was asleep so I missed it all.
But mom tells me the moment hubby sat down with the plate full of fried snake.  Baby girl was right there in front of him saying Bite.  Mom told me after she got that first bite she grabbed the plate yelling mine. Mom told me Baby girl ate more then hubby did.
Now anytime baby girl hears the word snake.  She pipes up and say Me Like Snake Meat.


Well word is saying 4 pages, and I’m tired of making faces and wiggling in the chair trying to work the tension out of my back.

Oh Daryl, your up on the writing world.  Have you ever heard of the weekend challenge?
I can’t remember where I heard about it before, but the way things are going at this moment I bet I could make a pretty good stab at completing a rough book in 2 days.

Well I’ll say.
Thanks for stopping by and reading my very long ramblings.
Thanks for leaving your mark.
Hope you have a good day, evening or night which ever may be your case.

I went to town, and on the way there. I asked myself why did I reply back on their web journal instead of here, when there is more then likely others asking the same question. Since my entry does sound like a good plot for a story. So I've copied and pasted my answer to Sevina's question here.
hmm that was a good question and in truth I had already forgot what I wrote so I read my entry, to see if I had starting going off in lala land writing.
Nope it's all true. Toe is still hurting and the nail has turned black.
:) Carpet no longer stinks. Already cleaned it.
And my comment about the military man, I will certinaly do my best to do just that, if he tries to see my cousin's kids ever again. http://pmbcp.bravejournal.com/entry/19943
That is a link to the entry that you will help you get an understand to my threat against his life. You can scroll down past a good portion of my rambling to
Despite a loving family I enlargered those word so you can find it easier.
My cousin's kids were not so lucky as me.
And I didn't remember all the details of that 1 night to me until a few years ago.
All four of them lived 2yrs of it.
