I care for my family

Ok, so my sister, the one i was talking about last night... well her boyfriend's cousin has the nerve to tell her that she needs to ask her doc about birth control, then suggests a few. Well for one, it isn't any of her business what the hell my sister should do, and for two she shouldn't be giving advice to someone who is old enough to make their own damn choices, yes my sister is young and has 2 children. Some of the time they have her boyfriends other daughter, and she asks for help, only because her boyfriend is at work when she goes to her appointments. So many parents ask for help.. my mom did.. my grandmother did.. and she had 5.. so she needs to learn to just keep her nose outta something that doesn't concern her, and life would be sweet!

More Riddles

How did Mark marry three women in Ohio, without divorcing any of them, legally separating, or any of them dying?

A man was sentenced, and the judge told him,

"You may make a statement and if its true I'll sentence you to four years in prison. If its false, I'll sentence you to six years to prison." After his statement the Judge decided to let the man go free. What did the man say?

What English word retains the same pronunciation, even after you take away four of its five letters?

Who can travel around the world while staying in the corner?

Mark is the Priest

"You would sentence me to six years in prison if it was true" Instead of Contradicting what the Judge said he let him go.

Riddles!!

I am a girls name

Sometimes you break me

Somtimes you chew

I'm Sour

I'm Salty

Yet also Bad For you

Most People Love me

They Truly Do

You write them

You give them

You get them

You hate them

You love them

You dread them

You need them

but you probably will

never want them

Wear me in any kind of weather

Shine the sun on me

and I am gone forever

Salt me and I disappear

Yuck! Just keep Me out of your beer

Women love me

and so do Men

especially at that time of Year

Some can hurt

others don't

Some can teach

Others won't

Some are stupid

Others smart

and some will take them

Right to heart

When grownups do this it may annoy

but its usually cute if by a little girl or boy

sometimes its triggered by the dumbest things

it can even be triggered when someone sings

don't get started

you may not stop

and the full blown version

can hurt your side a lot

Sisters

This is for my sister. Ever since we were little we fought, but now, I am 21 and she is 19. Today was the first time in almost 6 years that we actually fought, and we made up the exact same day! I love my sister dearly, and I am glad to have her. She had two beautiful daughters, and I don't know what I would do without her. I have two friends that are sisters. They fight every other day. I wish they would look at what they had done and just forgive eachother. I had a lot to think about... considering we were having a "war" about whose house was the best. It was silly at first and then we got a little to competitive.. lets just say that I said some things that were way over the line, and she said.. "You're dead to me, and I never want you to ever see you neices again." I didn't really care at first but then i was so upset that I called her about three or four times, and then I posted on my facebook status "I love my sister more than she would ever know. Just wish I would have thought first" She then commented and said I'm sorry ... and i said i love you too i am sorry.. Just remember if you a sister, don't forget to forgive, you never know when you will see her again.. and if u will see her again..
