The are kids still up, now what


Him: Do your kids ever go to sleep?
Me: No, they stay up as long as possible to drive mommy insane.
I am not a robot (most days) nor a prude. All adult humans need adult
interactions but when Mommy has older kids the living space shrinks
dramatically.
We all have old memories of our parents attempting to have quick,
discreet, respectable sex, however, kids are nosy. The sneakier kids are
able to quickly figure out what Mommy is up to and run away from the door, forever changed.
Gross mommy and her nasty sex needs.
But how will Mommy get her nasty sex needs met if her children are up at prime
booty call hours? I don't have the answer. My daughter only cares about any
food or soda that may come her way but smarmy comments from my son are like
nails on a chalkboard.
I have endured next-day commentary like, "why is your bed so messed up?"
and "what were you all doing in there?" But then, my son just gave up. He
was finally old enough to know, be embarrassed for me and him and just not
ask.
It is not like when he was six and I'd prepare something with mashed
potatos and gravy, meat and let nature take it's course.(Yes, even children
get Itis.) Now that my son is 16 and likes to stay up and play multi-player
video games and eat up all of the available food, we are all up together—
and I don't know how to have discreet, respectable sex as I am a banshee.
It's a part of my charm.
I bought my son headphones and that works out pretty well. He knows what to
do when he sees mom and guest take the march of shame to the bedroom.
I can imagine how we are viewed: First comes the giggling and such then the
quiet, then the occasional noise. I thought about putting a chair in the
closet. The clothing serves as a barrier, absorbing sound. It may work.
However, it did not help one bit that my son, one day after shopping
pulled a huge, black box of condoms out of the bag laughing, waving them in
the air and shouting, "what's this?"
I shouted, "condoms for mommy."
I don't know what he thought it was. I did not ask.
Looking closer at the item, he said he thought it was something for him and
placed it back in the bag, looking confused and slightly embarrassed. I was
stunned numb but used to my children's humiliating activities. However,
what child wants to be confronted with his mother's sexuality? We did not
speak of the event again.
So, I cannot have sex in peace, nor can I purchase condoms without my
children knowing about it. So much for gross mommy’s nasty sex needs.

Could it Be that Cuffin' Season is Near?

Life can get pretty rough sometimes, especially in cold weather environments and especially if we are not in a relationship. It is the roughness that leads us to be open to most romantic overtures or any overture. We feel as if we need a hug all of the time. Sometimes the relationship we open ourselves up to is unhealthy, meaning one or both parties are making a misery of the relationship. Who wants to be miserable? You do. You want that misery in your life because it prevents you from having to do the things you know you have to do to bring a healthy relationship into existence. Why do you want to be miserable? It is cold out and we are lazy—which is a combination strong enough to stop a train—let alone a self-improvement campaign. Granted, some of us are always on a campaign of some type so those people feel as if they are on an upswing and may attract similar partners. Those of us circling the drain feel a different way. Some feel any type of coupling is better than no coupling at a

Obama Administration Finalizes Historic 54.5 mpg Fuel Efficiency Standards

Consumer Savings Comparable to Lowering Price of Gasoline by $1 Per Gallon by 2025 WASHINGTON, DC – The Obama Administration today finalized groundbreaking standards that will increase fuel economy to the equivalent of 54.5 mpg for cars and light-duty trucks by Model Year 2025.  When combined with previous standards set by this Administration, this move will nearly double the fuel efficiency of those vehicles compared to new vehicles currently on our roads. In total, the Administration’s national program to improve fuel economy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions will save consumers more than $1.7 trillion at the gas pump and reduce U.S. oil consumption by 12 billion barrels. “These fuel standards represent the single most important step we’ve ever taken to reduce our dependence on foreign oil,”  said President Obama . “This historic agreement builds on the progress we’ve already made to save families money at the pump and cut our oil consumption.  By the middle of the n

EU: "Contagion has spread across the markets"

Two French banks were downgraded Wednesday and two are on review. Questions about a Greek default soon to be answered. Amplify’d from www.reuters.com European finance ministers have been warned confidentially of the danger of a renewed credit crunch as a "systemic" crisis in euro zone sovereign debt spills over to banks, according to documents obtained by Reuters on Wednesday. In a report prepared for ministers meeting in Poland on Friday and Saturday, senior EU officials said the 17-nation currency area faces a "risk of a vicious circle between sovereign debt, bank funding and negative growth." "While tensions in sovereign debt markets have intensified and bank funding risks have increased over the summer, contagion has spread across markets and countries and the crisis has become systemic," the influential Economic and Financial Committee said. The report highlighted European policymakers' challenge to restore confidence as the leaders of Germany,
