I have a mini van. I am a coach. I have a scorpion pit in my basement. My mom became depressed when my dad died too. I have five boys. They make a lot of trouble. My kids are aged 11,9, 7, 5 and 2. I have given them full reign as I cannot control them.
I have a grey German Sheppard named Barnaby. I hate scorpions. My dad was killed at a Nascar event when the wall did not hold up. I am suing them. My mother is becoming depressed. We are both very sad. My mother and I need to keep busy and occupy our minds for a while.
Is your dog giving you and your mom comfort during this time? Animals are always a soother, well many times. I am grateful to have the company, even love doing service work sometimes at the Humane Society. Wonder if you have many pets? I do. I have a dog and a cat. The dog is more of a pet to the kids. Ah, I see. Sounds like based on the choices you make with kids and pets, you like a large family home. Yes, it's wild around here, but we have fun. We sometimes play cards or board games to pass the time. You say you have fun, what things do you do? We play video games together a lot. It holds all of their interest. Yes. Video games can definitely be a place to focus, and spend time together now and again, I agree.  We also play a lot of sports. I'm a basketball coach. Ah how about that. Being active is something you focus on. Working out and coaching have been fun things in the past for me. Working out, I'm trying to be consistent, you know? Yes, consistency is key. Totally agree with that! Education is important. I've found that school and classwork help, especially with communication skills. Effort is easy to see, and I love learning.
