Aiii, ouch, yowza. My period just started. Cramps so bad I can't stand up straight. But I did want to take this time to rave about Saint John's Wort. I have been taking it for almost a month now and my depression has lessened and my anxiety attacks tapered off. I hardly ever get nervous stomach from anxiety anymore and because of that, my period has come back this month on a regular schedule!

I have 2 Ikeas within 30 minutes from my house. I like the store, but I always avoid going, because you can't just "pop in" to Ikea. You get sucked into the crazy Swedish shopping vortex of doom and spend hours there.

MrsC has gone to a baby shower. My son came home from my parent's house where he's been most of the summer. My twins are 6 today. I am completely exhausted. I am so ordering dinner. Hmmm. Pizza or Chinese? Sesame chicken would rock the house.

We had one of the orange-skinned spiky-haired NJ douches in the club last night. Wearing sunglasses at night, inside the club. I was staring at him, just imagining the whole thought process behind the transformation. Did he see a fellow douche when he was younger and think "Man, I want to look like THAT guy"? It just puzzles me.

Okay, I'm ordering Chinese.

Holy crap I spent a lot of money on my animals this weekend! Both my cats needed their annual shots, plus I got 6 months worth of Revolution(like advantage, but repels fleas/ticks and parasites like worms)
PLUS...my birds have two residences..one large divided cage outside(on a covered porch...so they are safe) and cages inside for when the weather isnt good enough for them to be outside. Their inside cages were getting old and needed to be replaced.
Plus food and all.
Damn. I better get some serious animal snuggles now...but the cats are mad because they had to go to the vet and arent really loving on me at the moment...

It seems like things are finally starting to get better for me. Once again, I hope I don't jinx things with this post. I'm slowly starting to get better sickness-wise. Hopefully, I'll be fully revived for Vegas. Just have to continue to take care of myself. I had a great night at work last night, all of my customers were gentlemen...except for one young FUCK! Not too bad. I'm not as paranoid about stalker dickbags. I've got some money for groceries, I am going to seriously clean my house today, and I will prepare for a great night at work tomorrow. One day at a time...

I actually have a recipe that is supposedly from NM, but I never use it. I've been developing my blue-ribbon chocolate chip cookie recipe for 10 years, it's kickass.

And there's no way I'd go into the cookie business. Mrs. Fields might come and key my car or something! *skeered*

I'm worried like heck.

My son's first day of Voluntary Pre-Kinder

I have to get up early.

The money from the house sale should be on the way.

I'm so worried about my son's new schools. One reason long ago I did not want children was that I did not want to go thorough school again. That was hell. I just hope it will be better for him.

I just try and take it one day at a time. I have to try and sleep now. I just don't want to ... between being sick, work and my son's school.... I can't even take any medicine tonight just in case I can't get up early enough to take him.

Well I will make it some how.

I still can't believe one of his schools demanded a ream of paper... how can a 4 year old even handle it. Well I did tell the empress that she is to take his supplies to school. (there are 2 involved) I don't think a kid the age of 4 should have to haul a dozen bulky and heavy supplies. Glue, folders, crayons... ok I'm cool with that, but a ream of paper? <G>

cherryripeboy,
sometimes the "supplies" are for the whole class to be used over the whole year, e.g. purell dispenser, sanitary wipes, etc.

i've seen times when certain groups of children/parents (randomly picked) are assigned to get certain items. "standard" classroom supplies are often not what they realistically should be, especially for the very young children.

i wouldn't worry about it too much. under 2nd grade the current curriculums are pretty loose/free-thinking. and most of the activities point the kids to the age-appropriate milestones they need to achieve. good luck. ;)

-No every child is brining the same. I understand we need to help the school stock up, otherwise there will be no supplies.

I just think it is ridiculous for the child to bear the weight of the item. He has a set of gear that would be a challenge to some adults. I'd have hoped the school would have had the common sense to say, Hey parents you can bring this in for your kid. I had to argue with The Empress to get her to do it, since I'll be at work.

Logistically, I take him to his fist course, he stays there a few hours, gets on a bus and goes to a speech school. I can't expect him to take 12 pounds of supplies, in unmanageable (for a four year old) condition (2 big bags). I don't know why The Empress thought that.

I figured she follows the bus to the second school, she may as well pop in with the supplies. He is four, sure he could manage a ream of paper and nothing else, but he has a bag, typical supplies, then all the other classroom supplies.

You know little of The Empress, her idea of common sense is not the same as mine. I don't know how the hell he could carry all that stuff.

i understand it's for the good of the kids but y'know what? i'd rather just cut the frickin' check and save everyone the hassle! (which i'll basically be doing anyways) but nooo, some parents need to feel like they're organizing, "contributing", and generally worth a shit. the kids have enough on their minds with whatever/school/friends/relationships/childhood/adolesence than deal with extra crap. whether it's fundraising or extra supplies. ideeots.

So, I successfully dropped my son off to his school. It was hard, but he has been to daycare. I could see that he was tired (he slept badly), his mother rudely awakened him. I just hope she did not hit him. I still fear she could abuse him.

As it is we got there and fared better than a lot of other parents. I felt sorry for the father with triplet boys, holding onto him so tight, I don't think they had ever been. I'm glad my son has been going to preschool for a while now. I just get so worried.

It is hard when he is just about the only person you love these days. My son was trying to be brave, just like I was. I never wanted to have to go through that again, but I know I will. I just hope tomorrow he sleeps well. I sat him at the table there and they served breakfast, he looked a bit shaken but was ok, I had him give me one more big hug, and then I walked out, giving him a final wave and a smile. Then I headed home, to prepare to go to work.

I just hope she did not hit him. I still fear she could abuse him.whoa. wtf did that come from? :O is there an issue? if so, you might want to look into a 3rd-party/medical/therapist situation to look into this.

sad fact is, if you go against the mom on your own, you will lose the arguement. (pers exp here)

but the child's well-being is the ONLY thing that matters here. so you may need to be proactive. in fact, this was one of the reasons for my own recent divorce (no abuse on a physically or overtly emotional level but definitely a '2nd-class citizen' situation between step-parent and my son). it's a tough decision/harsh pov but someone has to be the child's advocate.

if you can, i'd sneakily check up on him during the day. it keeps the day-care people on their toes and reassures yourself. definitely be early in picking him up, that reassures him.

hth, good luck!
