No answer. That very same evening, I was channel surfing while hubby was upstairs. The dishwasher was going, the laundry was on & I was changing channels at the speed of light. Hubby came downstairs & said, "Was that a western I heard on TV?" OMG each channel was on for like a tenth of a second. You can believe I have milked that story for the last 16 years.

My hubby locks himself in his office and refuses to acknowledge anyone attempting to contact him, the shit even has the nerve to call the house from said office to see if its safe to come out..as for coming back with a penis.NO THANKS!!!!! I like being smart. I told my husband he could be smart too, if he didn't loose his "little" brain cells when we have sex. um…well…better you than me is all I can say.

When they were both teenagers they both always had their period at the same time EVERY MONTH. You want to talk about PMS'ing. Our house was not a happy place when that came around. I avoided them both. Of course they had to throw it in my face that I didn't understand what they were going through because I didn't have them anymore(had to have hysterectomy). I would just smile and say "Hey, I did my time." I was so happy when they went on different schedules. My house was so much more peaceful. Linda Henderson I’m a divorced mom of two girls.

I only have one teenage Daughter (and a seven year old Son) and she drives me up a wall. My hubs tunes both kids out, but instead of the tv-he uses the computer. *G* You have my prayers and admiration for having 5 teenage girls in your house at one time!

You are more than welcome! I will keep you and your sanity in my prayers! ;-) Even with just one teenage girl... Alpha male does the same thing. Grabs remote and tunes out the world. Amazing how just one simple click and they are gone! But I do agree wit you on coming back with a penis. I mean, if all I had to worry about was bringing home a paycheck (I do), cutting grass (I do - soemtimes), does not have to worry about preparing food or going gather food (I do), no housework (I do)... damn... what was the downfall again... LOL!!! I hope everyone has a great day! Oh my… I have one… ONE… teenager daughter(she is fixing to be 16 in two months :shock: ) and I have enough! I can only -ONLY- imagine 5!!!! OMG!!!

You are such a brave woman!! My Grandma Taylor, my dad's mother, came from a family of 13, yes folks 13 girls no boys 13 girls!! Can you imagine :shock: :???: Those girls started being born in the 1800's when people did not have indoor plumbing! When they did have indoor plumbing it was usually 1 bathroom & 13 girls! Boggles the mind!! :shock: I never knew all of them but some of those aunts were a kick! Some of the husbands too! I remember when they would come to visit Grandma. Long, long time ago as the memory is vague. My oh my! 5 as in five teens! You are such a brave woman!!

I live in the House of Testosterone, and I like it that way. There isn't a single teenage girl that comes through my front door that doesn't go home to her own mother (that'd be you) at the end of the day. :lol: Sorry, but I like it that way. My brother is in the same position as Alpha Man. But I think Alpha Man handles it much better. Most days, it sounds like he engages. A day off to stare blankly into the nothingness of commercials and pretend all that teenage angsty estrogen doesn't exist is bound to happen every now and then. Maybe you'll have a deadline soon and you can check out, just to get back? (she says hopefully) Good luck!! Ya know, I have the opposite. I live in the House of Testosterone, and I like it that way.
