How to Piss off 57 yr old mother & 23 yr old daughter...

Motorcycle Walkabout time.

Haven't slept in the same room with her since two weeks after we remarried back in 2003. She's too nuts to be that close to.

Jeeze, Howie. I found the problem! WTF were you thinking? Does that kind of thing ever end well?

I've gotten back together with 2 women after we separated (1 wife and 1 live-in GF). I'd say the first was the stupidest thing I've ever done, except that I didn't learn from it, and now count the second as my stupidest mistake.

Own the failure that is divorce, and accept the happiness and freedom it brings.

You poor schmuck -- you had a chance to downsize to a 1 or 2 bedroom fortress hardened against returning offspring. But you blew it, and now, a fulfilling day lazing around watching NFL games (at an age when you've earned it) may now be just a dream.

A walkabout is what's left.

Strewth!!!

After the "incident", I went out into the gorgeous Central Florida Autumn and spent the next 6 hours "de-carbonizing" my ZRX.

Jeebus, just what I want to hear...something I ALREADY know! The last 10 years (hindsight being 20-20 and all) I've asked myself "did you REALLY think things were gonna be better, just because the two of us took a 20 year "time out"?"

What's sad is when a person looks back over his (or her) life, and measures it by bad decisions made.

S'alright, Howie. It's the bad decisions we make that give us the perspective to make good decisions.

It's kind of like stupid people. Some don't like the fact that stupid people exist. I love 'em! 'Cause they remind me just how smrt I really am!

 

[Old Michael]

... stupid people exist. I love 'em!

And they likely love you right back, Geekdog.

When the time comes when the kids put you in the Home your offspring will be checking out institutes for the criminally insane.

Since I have never married and have no kids you are making me look like a super genius.

I'm just about done raising the youngest for the second time. She was out once but used her trust fund from my dad to party through culinary school and marry an alcoholic thinknig she could fix him. As a retired pro drinker I know it can't be done. she went to massage school on some more student loans and is now in business school on financial aid. At least she is out of the house and I just got her off the insurance on the car I bought. My useless MIL just moved out of state so I think it's time to move and go into witness protection. At least the wife is a keeper, She's on my side.

Hang in there Howie. It's always darkest right before it goes totaly black I have a barn you can hide out in if it's OK with Bust.

Reading this has brought me to the realization that I really don't have any problems. Thanks

Yo RH! Where the hell am I going to stay when I come for my 'extended visit'? You still got room for me, don't you?

I know that I am against the grain here, but young people are really finding this economy bad. Do you think that they want to live at home? Hell no. In fact, when they get home and do nothing it might be depression rather than being a slacker. I am sure that I will get flamed, but the ideal situation is go with the flow in a situation you cannot change- economy, and impact on adult children ect. Maybe try to find the fun and love. You can look back in 3-5 years when things are better and be proud of the help offered and fun had.

Must be nice to be blind, deaf, and dumb.

Maybe that's what I need...if I move all the way to the left coast, they'll never find me :yahoo:

Not going to flame you Barry but it's tough when we all are fighting the economy and on fixed income but the young ones still want a free ride. I sometimes think the depression thing is more of a choice and a crutch than reality. I've been through it and after all the help I still had to suck it up and move on. Going with the flow gets you farther in the hole and closer to bankruptcy. Reality is a bitter pill but the sooner it's dealt with the better we all are.

High fives!

But I got stupid twice, thank god neither never happened (marriages).

You know a little while ago I saw some of those stickers soccer moms put on their cars, you know the family with the dog and cat thing?

Well this one was 1 guy with a sack of money and a woman bent over in front of him.. Said, "Your mom" underneath it.

I want that.
