Some weeks are better than others!
Cupcake was sick several days and
then I came down with it! Needless to
say there is a lot of barking involved
and we don't have a dog! It's taken
hold on all of us and stopped everything
in it's tracks!! Seems like our rock,
Beardo, is right behind us as of today!!
Jacque likes to play shuffleboard with the boys |
Social media makes it quite fascinating being
able to follow the life of kids you knew when your
child was in kindergarten! To have seen them interact as
wee ones and now have children of their own! My child
always seemed to know exactly who the good souls
were, as young as five!
Dobson is an arrogant artist that annoys people |
A few of the girls have become amazing young women
one a nurse and fabulous mother! The other, single
and a world traveler with her own cyber business!!
Horigon loves fashion, even his casual wear is fun! |
It's interesting to also see the kids who she
shied away from. Usually the more athletic types!
A popular mother of three who she always
avoided posts photos of her seemingly
perfectly fit body and lifestyle! During
Halloween this mom posted a video of her lone
baby in shopping cart sweetly waiting as she comes
around the corner and spooks him while wearing
a very scary mask. The child was crying and
shaking in fear while she laughed in hysterics.
It was painful to watch and sickened me!
Several months later , during a layover,
she was caught in a terrifying situation, her
children in tow! Pretty sure how she felt during
that scary incident paralleled how her little one
felt months before!
Duncan was pretty proud that he caught a few fish his first time out! |
I was surprised to see how well one young man
adapted despite being raise by a self involved,
primadonna bipolar single mom with a revolving door
of husbands. One incident his mother went on an
unreasonable tirade for no reason when her son had
dinner at my home with a small group of friends! There
was no reasoning with her. Sad for the boy,
at an inconvenience to me I drove him home!
Apparently this was common place with her, his
brother lived with their dad! He has since eked out
a simple life with a very overweight young woman,
and a dog. He is an amazing wildlife photographer
who lives and works far from his mother!
Harley enjoys boating fishing is just one of the perks! |
Some of the kids who were raised in the higher
echelon have really good work ethics and have
become quite successful. Yet some of them have
taken on the worst traits of their parents!! Children
do learn what they live! However some choose
not to follow in the footsteps of the dysfunction.
While others step right into the quicksand of
their flawed circumstances!
Friends hangin Happy tiler peeps |
It's also interesting to see the groups of kids
who've melded since kindergarten! Still friends,
a few married. A few with learning disabilities have
done so well...which is never surprising to me.
Some of the smartest ones tended to take their
intellect for granted! While the others adjusted
to their struggles and superseded them!
Nanette loves to sing! |
I truly find humans and all their unique
antics so interesting! Some how they
always seem to amuse me!! We can
learn so much from how we act and react
to life situations!!
Singers Happy Tiler peeps |
Have you learned anything from
the young people in
your life?
Wilson sings all day long...he is such a happy soul!! |
My happytiler peeps have been put on hold as I work
on my canvases. I have so many done ahead it gave me
good leeway to be sick and still work on my
canvases! Some peeps I have decided not to share
because I despise them!! Duncan should have
also been one of them!!
Have a great weekend and thanks for visiting!!
