Well, I haven't really been around for a while, here's my story and why I am ticked off.

For the last few weeks I have been spending alot of time with one specific girl, I really like her and she said she does me. Today I got a phone call from her and she told me she had found someone else. I just about $%^&*(g snapped right then and there. To make matters worse, it was one of my best friends. I guess everything that was said in the last month was just a waste of words.

I got another phone call after that. I am not allowed to show my cattle at 4H because I was already hurt and if something would happen they would be liable blah blah blah. If I get hurt, then that is MY fault, not someone else's, is it not? So now I am not allowed to show anything. Nada. If I cant show I am going to quit alltogether. Save everyone a little time. Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to, I live for it, but if I can't do what I like, then why do I do something I don't want to?

My parents are fighting again.

Whenever I TRY to do something, someone freaks out because I did it "wrong", so I do it their way and someone else spazzes because I did it "wrong". I get mad and leave and than am told I do nothing.

I give up my 4 day weekend to sit in the tractor and pick stones. I went out twice, after dark. I am still treated like a kid. I am still treated like an idiot. I am still told I don't do anything. When I go to schgool, what am I going to say I did on my weekend? Well, I spent 50 hours in the tractor picking stones for grandpa and Dad, and went homne, got told I did nothing and better start to pull my own weight, and then went out to two parties.

How can I do more when I am miles away from the house in the tractor? Explain it to me?!



Sorry if I sound lippy or smart, I am just in a VERY bad mood, hating the world and about to give up on pretty much everything.

Hey we all get into bad moods or funks, sometimes for a few minutes sometimes for a few days. Its life.

Stop spending so much time and energy picking up chicks, seriously there are so many things you could be doing with your time that are more positive and constructive. Have fun, date a zillion people but dont do the exclusive thing at your age.

Ask whomever you are working for SPECIFICALLY what they expect you to accompish in a days work. That way everyone is clear before you head out. Shouldnt be anymore confusion and no one can say you are not pulling your own weight.

Life is what you make of it.
The sun will come out tommorow and it will set in the evening. This we know for certain. When all else fails "EAT PIE" and go pet a wiener dog! And if that doesnt get you in a better mood poke at Jinglebob! It works for me!

ACS.....women are the root of all evil!! stay away from them! as for your family problems, keep your head low, and remember that you can't please everyone, so just try to keep yourself happy.

Wise words from both of the above.

If you think it's tough dealing with your own family's issues, wait until you get to deal with both your family's troubles AND the girlfriend's or wife's family problems, where you get to be affected by all the crap and have little or no input.

So take your time, learn how to live the best you can in your current situation and let the rest happen in its own time. It will be worth the wait.

Alex ,my boy your being treated like a kid because you are one!Your brain won't be fully developed for a few years yet.The girl thing,groan I've talked to you about that before,concentrate on other things like working with your show cattle,which I'm assuming is a large part of why they won't let you show.Any cattle thats not ready to show could hurt you in the ring and others on the way to the ring. You have been having an awful lot of injurys of late,if you were my son I'd have you in a bubble because you seem to be getting careless with your own safety.

Trust me,you weren't the only one in your family that gave up thier long weekend...I'm assuming so did your dad,its called responsibility,and you have a responsibility to help...you are driving snowmobiles,bikes,have guns ,bows,go on holidays,these things come from a work ethic.

I truly anm not trying to lecture you but help you,I care and worry about you alot,as do the others that try to get you to understand the posts they make to you... Ihope you take some of this and think VERY hard about it....Mairi :)

And if all elese fails, yeah, you can pick on me. :wink:

Just remember, I pick back! :eek:

Oh and you won't believe me, but it won't be long and you will a full grown man and be abler to do pretty much what you want, within the law. Get some good habits now as it will do you a lot of good in the long run.

And remember, all you are going thru' builds character. And some day you will be a real character! :wink: :lol: :lol:

Getting older does not mean that you are a grown up. :cry: How do I know that? :wink:
Do not tie yourself to one person yet.Lots of time for that. You are gonna be one hot property in the near future,just gotta ripen a bit.. Don't rush into anything.
I'm sorry your parents are fighting-It has nothing to do with you..However,you may seem to be a handy target..sorry 'bout that..
If you can get them to put in writing what they expect you to do,that may help..
Just keep pluging along..tomorrow will come..

Lol, thanks again you guys.


Mrs.Greg, they said I couldn't because I was hurt and if I got hurt worse THERE then they would be held liable, my heifer is all ready to go, she could walk in the rign right now.

Judith-I don't pick up chicks, Im too shy, and I have been spending every last second with this one for the last two months.

I work for the farm, not just for one person, I don't get paid for it, and don't want to, but when you do your work, and then extra that someone tells you what to do and how to do it, I still like. It is when everyone keeps telling me I am doing it wrong and have to do it their way by everyone so I don't get a lot of extra work done. By the end I am fuming and rather than throw something, I go walk it off... and then I get told I do nothing. lol


I am in a slightly better mood today, the circus is in town!!! WOOHOO!!! lol.
