For Sale: One Teenager Boy!
This kid is going to send me to the crazy house.
He went to the carnival with a friend and came home with a rabbit.
Now I have to go outside in the heat and build him a cage for this thing and I know who is going to have to feed the thing.
To think he named it Copperfield. I wish it would disappear.
He disturbed my project, so I will be back later.

I think he needs a brother. Then the 2 of them can get working on that hutch. Boys will be boys. I am glad that mine is more interested in reading, Videos, painting etc. He is busy but I don't get surprises unless he is planning a sneaky on me. These happen all the time here we have to stay on our toes as it's a free for all. Ever been sprayed with a bottle of Ketchup just as you turn off the water from your shower, mustard works well also - Perhaps a bowl of jello would fall on you head. Ever walked into the bathroom and find that someone has taken fishing line and made a spiders web with in and you have walked into it? Yes we live in a fun house ~ some may say a mad house!! But it,s home! ;D ;D ;D ;D Laura. <><

Believe it or not, it could be worse...try raising two teenage daughters with raging hormones! The good news is that eventually they'll outgrow it, and you'll get to come home from the crazy house! My two daughters are now adults, and I have only grandsons! I was the speech therapist at a local junior high for about 10 years, and the students were fun, for the most part, because I didn't see them 24 hours a day! Having said that, all of you with teenagers in the house do have my sympathies...hopefully someday you can look back at all those layouts you made of them with fond recollection!

You could always send it to me. I live on the very edge of the Denver area and we have coyotes that roam our neighborhood. One of my cats got through a torn screen window in 2004 and I searched and searched for two whole months for my baby. I have finally come to terms that he most likely was eaten by a coyote or a fox. All the animal control people kept telling me that (albeit gingerly) over and over and over. At least it is a quick death. Rabbits are coyote food around here but I know that's not really what you want to happen to it!

My son is always afraid his dad is the one that will get the butt end of things, and my husband is a futty duddy when it comes to practical jokes. Justin and I will do things to each other though. The other day he took a latex glove, filled it with water and ketchup and froze it, once frozen he poored more ketchup on it and stuck it in my ice maker, so that when I put my hand in I would come out with this bloody hand. it reallly looked realistic. I am working up to getting him back, I have to make him think I forgot about his trick though.

Oh Bernadette how much fun is that. I'd say you live in a fun house as well! My daughter is the more reserved one and we can't let her know if we are planning something to do to her Daddyo!! Poor daddy...not. After over 27 years he is getting used to it! Laura. <><

Cried buckets when my mother wouldn't let me keep it I wouldn't be shocked if he tried to bring home a lamb, my husband most likely would let him keep that though. I on the other hand would say please find a nice farm for the lamb.

Ros you sound like my daughter now. She calls herself an " non-cutenarian ".... meaning she won't eat anything that was cute when it was alive! I don't think she thought about the Baby Back Ribs I did last week? Shhhhhh. Don't tell her. She loves pigs! Laura. <><
