It would be somewhere in the centre where we have wild camels, emus and kangaroos competing with long-haul huge trucks.what are they wearing nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14546155360301370708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478632651448402323.post-72601510689548850362009-07-31T15:26:55.991-04:002009-07-31T15:26:55.991-04:00Oh, my.

It also kind of makes me wonder when God lets me witness things like that. I just have to look up and say "You know, I really could have done without seeing that."Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05924211847675823119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478632651448402323.post-74357603747905882452009-07-02T19:08:41.530-04:002009-07-02T19:08:41.530-04:00I have boys who just live for guts and gore, so th...I have boys who just live for guts and gore, so they manage to draw my attention to every bit of roadkill. And they ask to driveby it again on the way back!! I have learned to be steely, because they are boys, and they just won't stop and think about how my brain is different to theirs.Mixed Media Martyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02607694339657897540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478632651448402323.post-82831777615468759892009-07-02T18:39:57.433-04:002009-07-02T18:39:57.433-04:00Joanie, Joanie, Joanie.......sigh.

Well, next time someone and it's usually the same people, starts to tell you a story like this I want you to put your hand up, palm out, right in front of their face and tell them STOP!<br />If they try to continue, say STOP louder.<br />Do not explain yourself.<br />Walk away from the person.<br />Take it from Grammybea you don't have to listen, you don't have to explain why you don't want to listen, you can be rude (although, I think they are being rude to even think that you would like to hear that story) and once you do this, I'm betting that they won't do it again.<br />They will huff and puff but that's their problem, not yours.<br />I am old now. I do not have to hear, see or watch things that upset me. If my loved ones and friends don't get it, to bad.<br />There are just some things I do NOT need in my brain bank. ((((Big hugs for your gentle nature)))) :)BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825249325749004937noreply@blogger.com
