Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

You're joking, right? The day I got my license, at the state legal minimum age to the day, I drove to my Grandma's house 30 miles away. No cell phones, no GPS back then. Poor Grandma would not let me drive home without an escort because she was sure I would get lost.
Trying to understand what teenagers are thinking in general. ....and no I am not joking!
Trying to understand teenage logic is more difficult then finding the Grand Unified Theory!
 
I'm glad she is okay. Now that her "gift" is gone and she will have to figure out how to get where she needs to go to get a job (bus, bike, rideshare, etc), she will start to learn the value of things and how money requires work. Great life lesson.
Yep. I've done all I can. She has chosen the hard path. I did make her pay me 250 for the car. . and she was supposed to pay another 250 when she got on her feet. Not because I care about money but I wanted her to have something invested of her own so she would take it seriously. Do you all think I should make her pay the other 250 still or just let it go? We can't go get the car to even scrap it. Would cost more to get there than what we would get from it. Gonna let the parents of the boy scrap it for payment to bring her home.
 

Nice SF's! :love
Your first boy looks just like his daddy... cree is the one who pays me to come help her deworm her flock, lol...

:rofl

In your yard there is only uphill or downhill. I'm surprised the ducks haven't built a toboggan run yet.

Crash does when it snows, lol...

Back from a trip to the coast (Trinidad, Arcata)- where we ran into two other Redding "heat refugee" families we knew! We must have brought the weather back with us because it rained last night!!
Here's a couple pics. The standard ocean one, and the son leaving for S.Korea in 11 days with his mom "feigning indifference" like the models we are. :p

Mom called, my brother who was diagnosed with Colon/liver cancer last October, has been given a clean bill of health this morning by his oncologist!
No further surgery and no need for a colostomy! :celebrate
Part of why I'm having trouble catching up...Can't focus, too excited!
GOOD MORNING all my Pond friends!:wee

Having a mouthful of gin and a sudden urge to sneeze is a messy affair- just splattered the living room quite nicely :lau

You're lucky... sneezing is catastrophic for my neck... :/


Dang! Glad she is ok!!!
 
Seems a bit braggadocios.

Sounds like you need to get your priorities straight.

Hi pond peeps! I think I'm finally caught up. I had a great time visiting my friends in Oklahoma. They have a nice in ground pool so we mostly just relaxed drank margaritas and talked. We did go out to eat a few times went to a hibachi grill and had some scallops. Yum!
All was good until Sat night I got a call from my daughter crying hysterically. She is ok but she had gotten into a fight with her boyfriend and decided to take off to go to an ex boyfriends house over 5 hours from home. Has been lying to me about where she is for two weeks. Left Sat morning to come home and wrecked her car :th

:eek: Oh boy. Sure glad she's okay!

Nothing wrong with an enquiring...

Pussy....cat?

It's a weiner stampede !

:wee

That comment should get certain pondies a tad intrigued - where is Debs, btw? :D

:frow Have a nice nap.
