Just some tips from me..
I can not believe that once again school time is here. Summer is gone. It is the most exciting time of the year for some and yet a scary time for others.

This year is the very first year that I didn't have to get any of my children ready for school. My youngest graduated last year. However, I just want to share 3 important tips with you and hope that maybe you will pass this on so others can also be reminded.  So, let me begin.

1) Children and Teenagers are on the side of the road waiting for their bus to arrive. (Example: 2 Teenage boys tossing a ball back and forth while they are waiting). It is important that vehicles are taking notice of the children waiting for the bus and not assume they will notice you.. but you will as a driver will assume the worst, slow down, and predict what they children will do and how you will react to make sure there isn't a tragedy. **There has been numerous hit and runs in Oconee County already this year** 

Then after school, especially for the younger children they are excited wanting to share their day with whomever may be waiting for them. Pay attention to the children.. there is only one bus driver, they do the best they can do to pick the children up and drop them off safely.

So remember that the "RED STOP" sign that the bus uses.. respect it.. Don't get impatient and go around the bus even though the sign is out like I witness some doing last year.

2) Unfortunately time has changed.. our world seems to have gotten a little more crazy. For the safety of your child, write their names inside their book bags, and do not let them wear a shirt with their name on it. Some children are still learning the meaning of "STRANGER DANGER," and if the person says their name, the child might think they are a safe person.

​Don't make it easy for a "STRANGER" to identify with your child.. And teach your child they are never to get into a vehicle with anyone that they don't know. Including people that look like the police, fire fighter, etc.. let the child know if a police officer, etc needs them that they will come inside the school to speak with them. Teach your child, no matter who it is.. where they say they are from.. they are NEVER, EVER, to go with them in their vehicle.

3) Have a buddy system for your middle and high school children if they are to walk home from school. Route them on one path that is to get them to and from school. Remind them not to go a different route ever unless they have made previous arrangements with you. Let your child know that they are on a time limit to get to school and back home before you go and look for them. Remind them that after they get home they can play, but until they check in, they are to come directly home.

Remember everyone.. children from elementary to high school are just that.. they are children. Let's keep them safe as possible and help them have a successful 2018-2019 school year!

Accusing vs Friendship

I said I would always be honest with my blogs.. my life as truly as it is right now.. today.. *Hurt*
​
Friendship? What a word that people use just as casual as they would with saying they love someone. Just as quickly they accepted you to be there friend, someone can come along and just say something and they believe them over you.

Yes, triggered I am. How many times was I accused of doing something that I never did or how many times was I accused that I was lying yet, they later found out in life that I never lied about anything.

I absolutely have no reason to lie to anyone. Let's just face the facts if the truth were known now.. as I sit here bawling thinking about what was just said to me.. maybe they were looking for a reason to have out of the friendship to begin with. If just a common person that you work with can say that I said something then be brave enough to let me confront them or at least if you claim to be my friend that you believe what I am telling you.

Fact is fact, I have never used the phrase "Bull shitting me." That isn't my in my dictionary of phrases to use and let's face it.. I'm from Boston and if I don't like someone or don't believe in something I am not going to waste my time talking or doing something I don't believe in.

However, no matter how hard this is.. no matter what I am feeling right now and crying doesn't matter because what lays underneath is just someone once again accusing me of something I said or did, yet don't have the courage to stand up to be accounted or allow me to face my accuser. How many others have felt this pain of such betrayal because you believed someone would never doubt you and what you say is truth?

Friendship.. is like a season it has a time and place. Friendship is a season like the winter or summer. Yet, in Autumn it is beautiful, then when Spring comes it is destroyed by the past of the things falling and new things beginning. When a person does not stand by you.. and can toss it away because they believe someone else, and can not give you the decency to face your accuser.. then that is when I start to mourn and say Good-bye because it was never a friendship to begin with.
