Where does time go

Do you ever wish

You could go back

and redo
Now that you know

how it turned out
It's the way it is

So when your frustrated

Having a bad day
Be careful what you say

There is no do over
It's in that moment

Your life could change

forever
Listen to yourself

think about it
Without meaning to

It is exactly what happens

in that moment
Regret lasts

you can't take it back

No redo remember

that ...

Ghosts & Goblins
dance in the dark
Skeletons are crawling
in yards everywhere
Cauldrons begin to
boil as brooms
ready for flight
Witches gather
in delight for
soon it's
HALLOWEEN
Night
It's time to prepare
to ***** and scare
Time to plug in the
lights & decorate creepy pumpkins  
Don't forget the spiders
they like crawl and bite.
Let's all have fear & fun this
Halloween night !!

Being a grandmother is a beautiful gift
I became a grandmother in January.
My son's 1st child.
Sadly I have yet to hold or meet my little grandson Rex.
The girlfriend has decided that no family can meet him.
My son has decided to agree.
I raised him better than this he was so close to us and especially me.
So sad so confused never thought it would turn out like this.
I don't know what he thinks I've never done to deserve this.
I don't know why he doesn't stand up and say this is not happening.
That baby deserves to know his family.
We accepted her into our family.
She's always had some issues but this is the final straw.
Time is flying by and that little boy is growing up without our love and our spoils.
I yearn to hold him
Tell him I love him have pictures taken of us too.
It's like I say you never know what's going to happen tomorrow.
I could die tomorrow then what would happen then how would they feel.
I pray that doesn't happen.
I also pray , I meet that little beautiful boy..
A grandmother's love is special and , I hope
, I get to share that with my beautiful grandson.
