The Love Switch

If there was a something that existed called "The Love Switch".... all of heartache could be resolved.
I truly believe our hearts ache when we love someone we shouldnt love or dont love someone that we should.  When someone cheats on you or breaks up with you, the hurt is so deep because your heart still loves them.  If you had a switch to shut that off then it would be easy to go on with your life. 

Unfortunately in the real world.... this does not exist. We go on loving people that do not give us the love that we know we deserve.  Our brians have moved on....yet our hearts have not.  Your brain can often lie to your heart and you might think "your over it"... until a few glasses of wine and you start "bottom lip- out of control- crying"  .... oh yes... we've all been there.

You can also have the issue of ... I know this person loves me and is perfect for me ...but I do not love them.  In this case the "love switch" would also be great! Unfortunatly again.... does not exist.  The best thing to do in this case... eventhough this person makes you feel good about yourself... if you do not love them back... don't be a "me monster"... you have to break up and stop talking to them before you cause a world of hurt.

I truly believe that if you have ever truly loved someone that you will love and care for them until the day that you die.  This is why you can not maintain a friendship with someone you love.  You are asking for a world full of hurt.  So until someone creates "the love switch".... get a diversion to help shut off the pain of loving someone you shouldn't....and set up a diversion to the person that loves you but you don't love back.

"Nanny Envy"?

On one hot, summer, Wednesday morning... I went for a jog around the neighborhood.  I was passing a young nanny that had been working a few doors away for quite some time.  I figured.."hmm with my new found singleness....I will have to exercise..shop.. and socialize... why not add this girl to the list of sitters".
She came to babysit after she got off her shift from the house down the street.  She seemed a little nervous.  I asked her about it.  Apparently the obsessive woman she worked for asked 1,000 questions before she came over...and was worried I was trying to steal her away and basically forbid her from outside activities... I said "relax.. my kids are day care babies" ... (it was just for here and there) .... Well apparently in Stalky stalkersens culture... once people are employed by you... you apparently own them.  Well I think this is BS!
She not only continued to tell her Nanny she was not allowed to babysit.... but the next day.. while I was waiting at the bus stop.. She walked out of her house... right to the front of mine.. to go through my trash and then give my house a mean stare down... WTF!!!!!!!  For real... now I might not understand this culture thing... but I made sure I showed her how we roll in the USA. 

#1)  People do not own people here --- pretty sure we've been "over it" since the civil war...
      
#2) I sent my children running down the street in their bathing suits with candy in one hand... sparklers in the other.. singing "its a party in the USA"...

Not only did the Nanny wish she really was working for me... but now I am going to invite her to every Hot Tub party I have and give her a "nanny gig" weekly.

Moral of this story:  IT INDEED is a party in the USA.  Everyday is independence day in my home.  We are a bathing suit wearing, nanny stealin, hot tub partyin kinda family....and if you don't like it... go back were ya came from Stalky Mcstalkers !!!!!!!
