GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! Today I'm on the verge of a break down. I can't take anymore and I don't even know where to begin. So I'll just start to vent and hope I feel better when I'm done. Maybe I can make this short.... I had a drive from hell to work today. My boss was a "you know what" today at work to the rest of us because she couldn't have tomorrow off. Couldn't cash my paycheck.....because they dated it wrong. My 3 1/2 year old is being a little BRAT today...and has been for the past few weeks. My husband is sick AGAIN and is whinning and acting like the world is ending, as usual. And the icing on the cake....... Turn out the neighbor kid has been breaking into my house for months now and using my computer to look at porn when we're not home. How nice......... Doens't seem like much after I've put it in writting....but I'm still STRESSED out about it all... I guess I do feel better after venting just a little bit. Thanks for listening!!!! ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" |

Sounds like a day from Hell to me! (((HUGS))) Change your locks or call the police on the neighbor. I don't know how old your child is, and I have 3 of them, so I know they can be BIG brats sometimes. But also, when Mom is upset and stressed out, they tend to act out too. I hope the sun shines again real soon, and things are looking better for you quickly. We all need to vent, I just hope it helped you some. |

Here's some tips to help, but first...*MEGA HUGS*. Call the cops on the neighbor for unlawful breaking and entering, conspiracy to commit breaking and entering, premeditated breaking and entering, pandering, delinquency of a minor and conspiracy to cause delinquency of a minor. Then change the locks and bill the neighbor, as well as charges for the online time he accrued. If'n you feel like it, you can nail his hide to the door.  Dose the husband with meds and knock him out for a while. Sounds like he needs rest. The side benefit: no whining. I'm of the mind that every person between the ages of 3 and 10 need a swat for general purposes, for they are going to deserve it sooner or later. If that's not feasible, order a time-out, then punish the child by withholding for noncompliance. File a wage complaint with your local state employment office if the paycheck isn't corrected. Usually the state DA handles those and normally gets results. As for your boss, schedule her on the sly for a Human Resource Management seminar held in another state, or a city more than 3 hours away. Can't you already smell the peace and quiet at work? Having done all these things, sit back and enjoy the tranquility while you can, for all hell will break loose again should you be fingered for any of these activities. On a more serious note, I do hope things get better for you, especially at home. Home is where, ideally, you can rest and recoup from work, yanno. *Hugs* Alicat “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” Charles Darwin |

Sven.....Thank a bunch ... Hugs Linda.....Thanks for making me smile. I needed that! Michael.....After I thought about it...I realized that things could ALWAYS be worse. Someone out there is having a worse day that I. Nan......All of my locks are being changed as we speak. WhiteDove....The locks are being changed, and the police were called. See, my husband got home from work, went to the bathroom and saw a silhouette in the shower. He walked out and got his gun and the phone. Took my son and went out side to call the police. It all unraveled at that point. My son is 3 1/2.....and is enough for three children at times....and I know, when I stress so does he.  cat.....Thanks for the HUGS! Police have been called.....and caught him IN the house. Trying to decide about pressing charges. Got any drugs I could pass on to him!  I love your thoughts on my boss and the paycheck thing! LOL You've made me smile.... And your more serious note.....Thanks Many Thanks to all of you....I am beginning to feel a bit better. Might be because I'm not at work, my son is asleep and hubby is at work. LOL Seriously....Thank you all. You've helped a great deal! ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" |

You should press charges for sure...I can't believe this person would think that sneaking into your house while your gone is okay. Scary... Hope all is well with your family and you feel better soon! |

Sheri~ My Gawd!!! YES press charges......if you don't hold that kid accountable for his actions, he'll do it again, maybe something worse......what exactly do you think he did in your house while looking at all that porn???? hmmmmmm.? There is a lovely thought......(yuck)and do you really think he JUST used your computer? He could have gone through your personals and unmentionables.......now there's a night mare.....I say nail his ass to the wall and sue the **** out of his parents!! Opps, I cursed.......sorry....... wow, that really freaks me out........he's lucky he didn't come into my house.........my dad was a "Rambo" and I have been raised accordingly...... any way.......... I hope it's better for you, and I hope like hell you press charges and make that boy accountable!! -SEA |

The kid certainly has a lot of nerve to have done this, and for so many months. And I have thought of all the other things he could have been doing in my house.  Makes me sick!  Pressing charges is still an option.... I have so many days to decide what I want to do. The thing that is so disturbing to me is that we're friends with them and this boy is like a family member to me. I've decided to wait and see what the parents are going to do to reprimand him....then I'll decided if I'll press charges or not. He does need to know that this is NOT normal or acceptable behavior, and that he won't get off easy. Looking at this kind of thing I think is a normal curiosity thing for a teenage boy, but crossing the line like he did is NOT. That tells me he has a problem. I am however afraid that his parents will not be hard enough on him. I know if it were me and my parents, I'd already would have had my butt kicked clear to China and then some. Thank you all so much for your support and understanding....and advice! Oh, and on a lighter note....My husband FINALLY discovered my stress... and sent me to Gene Juarez Salon for a half day of pampering and massages.  I'm feeling better now, and Mom has taken my son for the weekend for my birthday! ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" |

Well, Happy Birthday!!! I wish I could go to a spa, even for an hour! I've never had a message (well, the hubby doesn't count)! I'm so sorry to know that he is a friend of the family, that does make it harder........I still say press charges, he needs to face concequences for his actions........responsibility has to start somewhere........ I agree, it's natural to want to see that stuff, but for criminey sakes...buy a magazine and do what boys have been doing for decades........and do it in your own room!! YUCK! I hope it all works out.......maybe some community service would do him some good......pick up garbage!! -SEA |
