New territory

Today I spent most of sunday out in the garden planting some bulbs and cleaning up the garden. My ole man he put up a new wooden fence to keep the dpgs in and he made it himself it looks realy nice. Im glad we accomplished so much today> I like for it to look nice and when the flowers bloom it will look beautiful, and their aroma is so refreshing. I bet their are alot of gardeners out there on the net? Do you enjoy your garden as much as I do? It gives me a relaxing peaceful feeling when I look upon my garden at all those flowers.Let me change my thoughts back to My blog its still not finished, its still not what I want! I'm trying to explore new territory. My blog has a lot to do with taking down fences that I would not have crossed until now. So I will continue to explore.

PROTECT YOUR KIDS ONLINE TODAY

Protect your kids online. Today. Posted by Five Mom, Hilda Morales, As a school Parent Support Specialist for the past several years, sharing important information with parents is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. I would like to thank you for logging on to this blog and would like to share some important information with you. Since cough medicine abuse is largely unknown to parents, this is a subject I plan to invest considerable time in raising awareness about over the next few months. Parents also are largely unaware that the abuse of cough medicines containing dextromethorphan is being promoted online, and I am determined to counter those negative influences with an equal amount of awareness and education online. That’s the goal of the Five Moms Campaign, after all. Hundreds of web sites, online communities, and blogs promote the abuse of cough medicine. Even social networking sites like YouTube, Facebook, and MySpace have users who provide instructions for, conversations about, and videos of cough medicine abuse. Users blog and post videos about specific plans to abuse cough medicine, how they use it, and what to expect at certain doses. They also offer guides on how much to abuse to get a certain type of high and how to combine dextromethorphan with other drugs. I am not linking to any of these sites because I don’t want to send them any more traffic, but they are out there and they are dangerous. I also would like to invite you to visit your child’s “My Space page” and see the information that he/she is sharing with the online community. You can also protect your children from these online predators and this destructive information by: Making sure that your children are never online without your permission. Be clear with your kids about your rules on Internet use at home and outside of the home. Placing your computer in an area of the house where you can easily supervise their Internet activity. Asking your children about who they talk to and what activities they do online. Using parental filters to block access to questionable sites. Building an open and trusting relationship with your kids about their online use. ---------------------------------------- kids use slang like “Dex,” “DXM,” “Skittles,” and “Tussin” to describe cough medicines. And they describe cough medicine abuse with slang like “Robo-tripping,” “Dex-ing,” “Smurfing,” and “Skittling.” --------------------------------------------------------
