Pffft!


Youngsters! What do they know about such things?



Happy birthday. And cheer up. The best decade of your life has arrived.




You know, I remember back when I was forty.....

I know, it's odd. I don't feel more than a day older than yesterday.

And woo-hoo, Suzie! Congrats on the new volume of GSHOFF!!! Way to go, you chocolate bunneh you.

And you won't. For years.

aww, thx much, dear Gail. 'Bout time you got back to us! Missed you. Hope all is well 'n you guys are all havin' fun on kazy's b-day! There's still lots o' s 'n confetti!

Good evening, house of old-timers.

Who wants some prune juice?

I'm here! I'm here!

I am not! I've just volunteered to be a "shoulder to cry on" for a crazy woman.

She wasn't so crazy until a few months ago when she took in two more teenagers, in additional to her teenage son. Now she's really crazy.

I should be getting e-mails or phone calls in about 30 minutes.

Teenagers? Are you sure she's only crazy and not homicidal? lordie.

Tough day today kids. I gotta get me some dinners.

Well, I think she was leaning toward homicidal, or suicidal, today.

I managed to survive my own teenage years. That's enough for me.

Have I mentioned the time I just about jumped over a Tennessee State Trooper in a speedy '67 Camaro?

Uh, never mind . . .

I'm with you, Duchess. We've gotten three through, three to go.

There should be a "Teenagers' Island." I'd go so far as to give them their own continent.

Even if they had their own little island, they would still spend most of their time texting each other.

For those of you who know anything about country music, Earl Scruggs passed away today.

He was a genuinely nice guy.

Seriously, Ken??? Six teens? Wow! Is this as a result of running a homeless shelter or not having television for entertainment or multiple births with just two pregnancies? I'm very curious.

I raised twins who are twenty now and found the teenage years to be the best and most fun but yes, we also had our moments. Six teens is just beyond me in this day and age.

By the way, my grandmother was a twin with 12 siblings before her and 7 half-siblings after her. Her mother and twin died during child-birth.

You certainly have my admiration and I really believe you deserve a prize, ken!!!

We have a blended family. My prize is the occasional good night's sleep.

Two teen boys here, and they crack me up, they are so funny. (wonder where they got their sense of humor from...) Teen boys are much better than adolescent boys.

And whether it's six teens or one, their messed up sleeping habits wreak havoc on a household big time.

Amen. I often find myself staying up late until they're all settled in for the night.

Then getting up before dawn for work, right? I'm lucky if I get four hours of sleep some nights.

Yes, I nap when I'm not working. I love it; it's like getting two days for the price of one.

You sure you don't mean losing two days for the price of one?
