I don't know why

How silly of me I was finally able to get back in here again. This is really such a pain I have to sign in with my email address and not my ID. How crazy is that. Thank goodness I have a son who knows what he's doing so he can show his mama how.

Well, ummm let's start on Me and I will work my way backwards...

I was married to Joe for 7 years as of 1-1-2007
I met him on the internet
we had a great marriage for quiet a while, then he got into some bad vices and it ruined our marriage so I am now separated from him.

As a child I had 3 eye surgeries where they had to take my eyeball completely out and lay it on my cheek while they scraped the muscles in my eyes so that my eyes would not cross. I was born completely cross eyed.
There was a photo of a little boy and girl baby sitting in a playpen and when i saw the photo I said who is that ugly baby. Mom responded with oh just some neighbor kid. Then one day your auntie Lin was mad at me and she said you know that ugly baby in the photo, I said yeah... she said it was YOU. Mom just didnt want to let you know how ugly you were. Tore my heart out. But that's what bro and sisters were for I always thought. Seems like they did that alot to me. There fore I grew up with a healthy complex at the age of 8
Then I remember times when my sisters would take me out and buy me clothes and things and we always seemed to got stuff to look alike. Anyone who sees us always thinks we are twins and Peg & Linda always loved that cause they are older.
One time at the age of 10 i think, Linda was going to the washroom while I was taking a bath and she said Carol I bet you can't grab your feet.... being defiant I said I CAN TOO..... and when I did my butt slid out from under me and and my head went under water and I heard her yell let go of your feet. Mom came running in the bathoom. and unloosed my hands from my feet and helped me up before i drowned my self in soapy water. LOL .... THEY all had a good laugh, Linda got yelled at and all she'd say was Mom I never touched her !!!!!! lol..... she was such a tomboy always teasing me.
One day laying in bed, cause Linda and I had to sleep together there were too many of us. I just hawled off and slapped her as hard as I could she screamed OWWWWWWWWWW and I thought Oh God Im gonna die....... She turned to me and said what did you do that for? I said I just got an urge...... LOL she said well so did I and now you're gonna pay.... with that I ran to Mom.... (i got away with it)......
Back to the subject at the tender age of 17 I had my last eye surgery I also had a boyfriend he was your dad's brother. I milked that surgery for all I could get. He came over and just pampered me while Mom was at work. He couldnt stand looking at my beat up eyes. But I made good use of them.
Then by that time Mom, Linda, Mike and me were in that little house on Greenwood that we just sooooo loved. It was the best time in my life.
After that it was close to graduation time and we were living in the house next to Honey's old house.
One day Mom got a special notice from the school, I couldnt sign for it, Mom had to do it herself. Not good!!!!! It was a notice saying that YOUR DAUGHTER IS NOT GOING TO GRADUATE. Well gee, someone needed to answer for this because I was told all through my senior year I had nothing to worry about. absolutely nothing, that I was doing great. Thats all i could tell Mom so .......what did she do? NOTHING. All I needed was a 1/4 credit of P.E. and I would graduate.. Later in 2002 I went back to the school and asked her how I could get my diploma and when she looked up my grades she said someone dropped the ball on you honey. I will get your diploma printed up for you asap. Which made it look like I graduated when I was an old gal... making me look kinda dumb!!!
But atleast I finally got it
OKAY, so finally I'm out of school and I'm 16 years old right? I say ok mom now can I get married Joe and I want to get married. She says no, I said "maybe" I didnt say I would give my permission.
WOW........... big let down. So rebellion popped up and I was determined to do it the only way I knew how. She wouldnt want me pregnant with no Daddy for the baby, she'd have to let us get married. But that never worked.
Then Joe left, and I met your Dad. We were inseparable........ so I thought.
Your Dad looked just like his brother Joe and handsome all rolled into one. I was floating on cloud 9 the day I met him.
Funny thing was.......Your Uncle Joe took me down by a river bank and said I'm so scared. I couldnt figure out why he'd be scared and he finally told me with tears in his eyes...... My brother is coming to find work and I know you will leave me for him. You will fall in love with him. I said oh you are silly. I would never drop you for your brother....... What would make you think that.
How he knew was beyond me. But I did.
Then after that I had worked at Federal Signal..... then I went to Amvets when Federal Signal moved away.
so
your auntie Lindas husband was alfredo
your uncle Joe was Alfredo's nephew. (as was your dad)
Your cousin Reeba is Linda & Alfredo's daughter
which makes you and your cousin Reeba twice over cousins.
that's why you two resemble each other so much.

No body else was included in that concerning you.

Christians Uncle Raymonds wife "elvira"
was his fathers cousin as well. So, in a way he too may have been your brother/cousin
It does get confusing.

Well I just got back from Christians and I need a nap...I was driving all over the road and Auntie Linda did nothing to keep me awake. I think that was my last trip down there. seriously. I just can't drive for over an hr with out falling asleep.
later Son.
Love,
Mom
