Thanks everyone. It has probably been time for awhile. But we were putting it off because of covid.

Hugs all around here. Rebel do you have power or water yet? This week has been really rough for me too. I made a huge, tiny mistake a bit ago. My company was purchased and our new insurance options are way more expensive and we had a hard time getting H and the kids on a plan though his work and I couldn't elect my benefits til we knew that they could be covered there. So I didn't renew my zoloft because I was waiting for my new coverage. Well then we got snowed in for 5 days with no water and intermittent power. The 5 year old is a social butterfly and misses his friends and 3 year old is, well a 3 year old. Also I am really lonely for real adult friends. It is hard for me to make friends at all and essentially impossible during covid. A trip to look forward to would help but covid And I know I have so much privilege in so many ways.

Sending everyone love, light and virtual hugs.
I think somethings in the universe this week. It’s been a bad one for C as well. Like break down crying for no reason and can’t verbalize why. She’s in her session right now so hopefully she can work it out.

I can't remember what I was listening to or watching yesterday but a pediatrician said that, if your child is responding to minor frustrations with anger, it's time to speak with their doctor. Just putting that out there because I had reached out to our pediatrician about both of my boys and felt maybe I was off base, but that doctor's words reassured me that I was doing the right thing.

I’m here catching up and sending virtual hugs and drinks to those who need them (it’s rose tonight). I took a break from social media and news and it has helped. I couldn’t handle the impeachment stuff. I’m in a much better place now.

My birthday was yesterday. I took Friday off to relax for my mental health. I was in the bathtub using a new face mask when it started burning. My entire face has/d a slight chemical burn. I had to take benadryl to make the swelling come down, which basically put me out for the day. My gift (a fancy espresso maker) was broken when I opened the box yesterday. My son was a gigantic pain in the ass all day. We were outside playing on the slide, and he bashed me in the nose with his head - not broken, but probably as close as it could have been. Lots of blood. Nice blue under-eyes today. Then he shit in the bathtub. My H took care of it all, but happy fucking birthday to me. Like my mental health wasn't suffering enough, I just.. FML. ETA: lest anyone be like, oh Lemon, I'm sure it wasn't that bad... I look like I was out in the sun for days. poof

Thanks y'all <3 I'm supposed to get my 2nd vaccine shot on Friday, so I might just take a full day as a re-do (and hope that I don't get a crappy reaction to the shot).

Yes. I took K to her ped in the fall for exactly this. She was furious at everyone and everything at all times, and her frustration tolerance was nonexistent. Ped recommended a counselor and suggested we start with the school to see what they could provide. K started talking to the school counselor twice a week via zoom. It helped her a lot. Now she talks to the counselor once a week.

lemondrop I'm sorry your birthday was such a bummer. I've had that same type of chemical burn reaction on my face too, so I know how awful it is and I'm sorry it happened. Especially on your damn birthday!

My treadmill is behind S1's desk so I get to watch 5th grade while I'm on it and S1's class has a weekly block of mindfulness, emotional regulation and mental wellness time. It's really well done and I love that they take time to do it.
