Time, Teens, Talk…Trouble

Working for the government you realize how spoiled the military spouses can be, and I grew up a military “brat” and later became a military wife.  Our store is going through quite a few construction changes, and upgrades.  Up until this week, none of the changes have really effected the patrons that shop our store… this week, the eisles have become only 5 feel wide… YES that is not enough room as far as I am concerned… but it is a temporary issue… Spoiled Military wives bitch and moan and you would have thought we removed an entire line of product…. It is unreal some of the complaints we get…

Our son has an issue with time…We give him specific instructions to be home at a specific time and most of the time we will here excuses as to why it did not happen… May not seem like a big deal especially since we sometimes will joke about Mormons being late and never on time… We have provided him 2 different watches, a cell phone… several clocks, several phones and various reminders… and still LATE!!!

Found out that the teens mouth, and ears are a little big and the messages while going to the brain, get totally screwed up, and the neurons and electrons are not functioning quite right… he was walking with the girl that lives on our street, when she asked him some questions about “w”… well, He decided he could answer those questions and make it like he knew what he was talking about…  using bits and pieces of things my husband and I talk about and put a little twist on them… He totally got stuff wrong, and I know that I will be hearing about everything later when I am asked a bunch of questions.  when I told him that the things he talks about will get back to others… he got big eyes and I think he realizes that he was in the wrong… and will have to live with the consequences of his actions…

life with a teen is a roller coaster…
