Did you ever go swimming with just one other adult and five kids, with an age range from 3 months to 9 years? the 9 year old did not need any attention but all the younger ones needed LOADS of it! so tired I am about to fall asleep, lol.

I have to admit that this bunch is pretty good at keeping me busy and getting me tired, lol, schoolwork for the oldest 2, chasing after a almost 2-year-old seeing to it that he has a diaper on when he's in the house, and that he is using his potty outside (this involves lots of accidents)... just as avoiding fights among all four bigger kids, whereas the baby seems to be drinking to fast and always has air in his tummy (poor boy) which makes him burp and cry a lot. I think he will also break his first tooth soon as he is drooling like nuts...

Those of you who have read yesterday's post know the kids' names all the others have to bear with initials now.

Here is what I am doing here, except for normal everyday things like playing in the yard helping with food....
on friday we were swimming which basically meant carrying 2 children through the water, until they found all kinds of floats they were able to swim with.
on saturday we went on a country soul stroll where we saw a bison farm, and some other interesting places and also went to pick strawberries.
on sunday after church we went continued the stroll going to the town of Legal where they have lots of great Murials, and a factory where they produce Pea Butter. Delicious!
Today was a day at home with the two youngest family members. while all the others went to the library.

I might have said something the wrong way it the post before, as it migt not have to do with rape after all. I never had to go through this .I agree that rape is about control. So what I was trying to say way basically that I think everyone knows there are people who are not in control of themselves, or everyone should know. IF that is something we know, I think people should not test how far they are in control of themselves. of course there are occasions when we do dress up, but is it necessary to run around almost naked all alone? Rape has nothing to do with sex appeal, but if a possible perpetrator (and in this case I am not talking about rape within the family,because I think this is a bit different in this case) sees women in the street who's underwear you can see without looking closely peeking out above and below the skirt, 5 inch high heels, a bra like top,... I just think there are so many ways for women to be sexy without being almost naked. And the interesting thing here in Austria is that we do have lots of muslems here, and there are lots of young muslem women at university with me, and most of them dress very well, and I also think that the way they look they are sexy in their own way, but the don't show all their skin. On the other side there are these turkish women living there who look like this:






Whereas the miniskirts you see everyday look like this:

Re: Rape and Responisbility

Reading the entry Rape and Responsibility at One To The Nth Power made me think about several things. I am far from blaming the victims for being raped, I would never do that and not even think about it, but there is something going that kinda worries me. I don't know if that is something Austrian or European or if it is the same way in America, but if you just look at a lot of young women in the streets nowadays here in Innsbruck, I think they show more than I would really feel comfortable showing wearing a bathing suit. Like the skirts they are wearing barley cover their buttocks top and bottom. Then the other day a woman was wearing shoes that I could not help reminding me of tying someones hands and feet. I don't think that those women are aware of the effect they might have on a man who is not in control of himself. This is of course no excuse for anyone. But if I go shopping in town or something like that I don't think I have to show all my sex appeal. I know that there are ways to be sexy without being almost naked in the streets, and I don't think there is anything wrong with that, but I think women should also be aware that if they dress like a prostitute (and there are plenty of girls, young women, and also middle aged women, who dress that way) they will also have that effect on men. I can make a comparison on that field as street prostitution is legal in Austria, and there are some of them standing just across the street from my apartment building, and some of them seem almost more decent than some school girls.

The Keys to my heart....?

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to good manners and elegance.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

One To The Nth Power - when dreams come true

Square1's short story When Dreams Come True just fascinated me by the beauty of the story and its writing. The whole story felt so real to me. It's as if I had lived through something similar, although I have to admit, that I know I haven't. It may not make sense to others, but the part of the story that is published on One To The Nth Power so far really was as real as sometimes real world doesn't seem....

Marriage and Relationship

Marriage and relationships are big issues, and are not to be dealt with easily, but still I am going to write an entry on them together, because somehow I think they belong together, whether or not I am ready for any of them. I have heard so many people talking of love, marriage, relationships and so on lately and somehow that made me think a lot.

There is someone who told me that it would be enough for a marriage if one of the 2 loved the other, and the other one would learn to love the partner. I doubt that this is the case, as I think there is no marriage without its ups and downs, and there are times when love is being tested, by all kinds of things, and ususally it takes a lot from boths partners to overcome such hard times and if the affection is not there on both sides, I don't believe that it would work out.

I don't think that partners kinda belong to one another but each of them still is a complex individual, with his/her own decisions, which can sometimes be quite painful for the other one too, but that's part of having to do with other people as well. Life is not always sweet and beautiful although there are lots of sweet and beautiful aspects of it. There are lots of painful aspects, but I think only because of them we can really cherrish the sweet aspects.

Two alive - two dead

Today an Austrian truck was stopped near Vicenza in Italy, and there the police found four illegal imigrants hidden in the truck, two of them were alive the other two had already died. they found out that all four of them were young iraqis who had paid thousands of Dollars to some facilitator to smuggle them into central Europe. They had been suffering under the extreme heat and no food and nothing to drink...

childhood memories

Just today I remembered one of the people who make me think back and I don't really know what I feel or think about them. This girl, Anni, is about a year older than I and she is autistic. I met her more or less regularly when I was a little girl, and somehow she always managed to scare hell out of me, but the reason I was scared of her was, that she liked me so much, that as soon as she saw me she was roaring and running toward me and then gave me that huge hug not wanting to let me go again.

I grew up in a family without lots of hugging so this experience was always something new and frightening. I never knew how to react or what to do. I never wanted to hurt Anni's feelings, but I wanted her to stop doing it. I remember that as if it had been yesterday, and then suddenly our mothers decided not to see each other with us anymore because I was always so scared...

There is something in me that might sound weird to some of you. It is about the way I feel about myself, and I think that a lot of it also has to do with the feelings and fears I have written about lately. I hardly ever feel the age I really am, sometimes I feel like a young girl, 13 or 14 years old and at other times I feel like I was a lot older than I really am. I feel like that old woman who has gone through a lot of experience...
