No one owes you anything but yourself
I haven't posted much this week because I seemed to be very tired. I have not been sleeping well lately so in the day time I just been exhausted living on caffiene. Anyhow I have another surgery scheduled for March 31st. Its for my other knee. I apprently have torn something and they need to do an exploratory surgery to see what needs to be fixed. They can't tell by the MRI. They do know I have a torn meniscus..(cartlidge) but my doctor thinks I have a torn MCL so that might need to be repaired. I am suppose to be going home after surgery and I will be on crutches for a few weeks. Anyhow my son is coming home from Mississippi that day and its his 21st birthday. I still dont know his flight information so W may have to go and pick him up from the airport. He will be stationed here in Hawaii. W is going to let him take over payments of his Altima and buy a new Toyota Forunner Truck. G is excited. My husband keeps his car looking like it just came from the dealer so G will have wheels and I dont have to be driving adult children anywhere. He will be taking over payments and giving W a small down payment for his new ride. I am sure it will raise a rukus with W's daughter but we offered her the same deal but she wants it for nothing. My parents never bought me a car and W's parents were too poor to do that for him. None of the kids got cars when they graduated. My daughter C bought her own with her own money. G is going to buy his first car from us paying the payments with his own money. W's daughter thinks we are wealthy. We are not. We worked for everything we have. When we had a graduation party for her she took her money she got from everyone and blew it on her boyfriend. She got like $4000 from everyone who came. She could of put some of that as a down payment but she chose not to. We gave her brother S the same deal when he lived with us. He could either have a graduation party like she had or we will give him the down payment for a car. He would have to make payments and pay his own insurance. Well he chose drugs instead and lord only knows if he will graduate this year. He is living with his erractic mother now. Anyhow nothing comes for free in life. I had to earn and pay for everything I have and so did W. No one died and left us money. Both he and I have been working at our jobs for 15 years. I just wish some children would get it and start living like they are not owed anything. This child and I say child because she is going to be 20 and still lives like a child even after having a baby. Her mother called W the other day and was complaing about her and how she is buying diapers and baby milk for W's and hers grandchild. Both W's daughter and her boyfriend are working so then why is W's ex wife buying these items?. Why? Because W's daughter and the boyfriend are buying things like plasma t.v's, having 1st baby luaus they cant afford. I dont know I guess when I had my first child at 22 years of age, I just knew it was time to grow up. I worked and paid a sitter to watch her while I had to work. I bought everything for my child. Clothes for me and my needs came second. My ex husband and I did without for a period of time. I shopped at stores we could afford. I sewed my daughters clothes when I wanted some new baby outfits. I budgeted. I dont get some children these days ..they live for the moment. She had the opportunity to go to nursing school after high school... fully paid. She decided to have a child instead. When I say DECIDED.. I believe that is exactly what she did. She thought she was going on welfare and get section eight for houseing because someone told her she could. Well they were wrong. She couldnt get either because they were living with his parents and welfare had to use the boyfriend's parents income. Children shouldn't be having children. My husband doesn't want to get involved anymore. Between us we raised seven children and still are three of them now. I am not going to be raising grandchildren. NO ONE OWES YOU ANYTHING BUT YOURSELF.
