Update: their customer service is crap, too. I called to request a shipping label to send it back. The guy said that they "don't offer that service." I said, "what? You don't offer returns?" He said yes, that's correct. LOLOLOL I don't think so buddy, I need to talk to your supervisor. I never got to speak to his supervisor but he finally said I can take it into a store and they will accept the item and issue a refund. I very much doubt that's accurate. I'm going to have to call back and try to get someone with a clue. Where did you buy it from? That’s crazy that if you ordered it online that they say they won’t return it.

H’s class party was kind of a cluster. 2 of the other parents that were supposed to help didn’t come and 4 kids were sick. We got through it though and it was fine. Also, I found out that H actually has school on Thursday too so that’s a bonus since I thought this was the last day of class before Christmas.

cagoldi I don’t know if it’s vegan or not but have you tried kenra blow dry spray? It’s supposed to cut down your drying time.

I'll have to look a little more in depth at the ingredients but at first glance it looks vegan and they don't test on animals. I might try it, thanks!

Today, Josie has said f***, dammit, and Jesus (all separately) whenever Charlie starts to yell. Clearly I have to watch my under my breath exasperations.

Today I also found out that one of the little girls in H’s class hasn’t said a single word the whole school year. Her family speaks Ukrainian at home so school is the only place that she hears English. That has to be so frustrating for her.

I think I've mentioned it, but MH went to kindergarten not knowing any English. He said he hung out with a girl who spoke Hindi, so they couldn't understand each other but at least they were both in the same boat!

There’s actually another Ukrainian boy in her class but he speaks English. The teacher said the boy’s mom has spoken to the little girl in Ukrainian before. I’ve noticed that people from that county that live here seem to have a great community and that they all seem to know each other (or at least the ones I’ve met seem to know each other, even though I’ve met them at different places). She seems to understand ok, I asked her if she was done eating her snack and she nodded yes to me and I asked if she wanted to try the ring toss game and she shook her head no.

tallb I’m going to start giving him miralax because it’s awful when he’s backed up. My only worry is if i give too much and he’s at school what will he do?! He won’t go at school and he’s still going in a diaper at home. We both know that O probably won’t start going on the potty until Z does so we will try to train her soon. klong11 C was an early potty trainer. At what age did you start? And how long did it take for her to “get” it?

Long story short I've been quiet lately because I'm depressed that Max is not doing well. He was constipated to the point of throwing up a lot last week and I took him in for bloodwork and an enema. Basically his renal failure is progressing causing further dehydration and making him constipated despite regular subcutaneous fluids. He's also anemic. He has since pooped (only twice since Thursday) but is on a lot of laxatives and basically the plan is to put him down if he gets that backed up again since having an enema every week or so is no way to live and he screamed during it. I knew this was coming and I knew it would be hard but I'm drowning in it a bit. My Christmas spirit is gone and I just want to sleep.
Dh has been very good and has given me some space and also taken on some school pickups so I can have me time since I also haven't had time to exercise, breathe or anything lately.
So that's that. I haven't wanted to post about Max since it's been a roller coaster and don't want hair pats because I cry. But you guys are my friends and I needed to let you know.

And how long did it take for her to “get” it? She started around 2. It took a couple of months due to the dc teachers not wanting her in panties. I moved her to the next class up and they immediately put her in panties and she was good.

I'm sorry, wedding. Pet illnesses sometimes feel more upsetting and frustrating than people because of the inability to communicate. And because we assume other people don't get it so we keep it in. It just really sucks and I'm sorry.
