I think it's a normal feeling Peekaru. My kids have been overly clingy, whiny, crying, and loud. I honestly want to run out the door and hide at a bar when h gets home. I love those rascals but god, I need a break at times.

jedi, I'm sorry the teacher hasn't responded. And due to the seriousness of what S1 has shared, an in person visit is required to the school. A sit down with the teacher, principal and counseled needs to be had. You need to let them know what your expectations are to help ensure S1 safety. Let them know you are concerned, you need to know the circumstances to which he said this and that you expect to be contacted the same day if something like this should happen again. I don't think this warrants another email. You are already seeking help due to you taking this serious so the school needs to know too. Good luck.

jedi I totally agree with RunsforWineandCarbs. DS said the exact same thing in kindergarten and the principal, teacher, counselor and DH and I all had a sit down within like 2 days. Side note, feel free to message me if you want, we've been through this. If you don't hear from his teacher this weekend I'd be there first thing Monday morning requesting an after school meeting that day. I'm sorry

We were going to go to a cool medieval fest that I saw online, but when I looked at the details it seems like it's a LARP thing. Soooo we're going to pass on that and head over to the metropark this afternoon instead

H has to work most of today so it's just me and the girls. I'm wondering if I can tackle putting together a bookshelf by myself or if that's asking for trouble. Going to take the girls on a walk to a coffee shop now! I love our new double stroller but I wish it was like 2 inches narrower so I didn't have such a hard time getting it in and out of shops.

Thanks everyone for the advice. We had some more issues last night with him saying things about H when s1 was upset and mad.

We out s1 to bed an hour early last In hopes of him getting some extra much needed sleep. He woke up an hour early. 😒
I ended up taking him to breakfast. I'm trying to ask questions about school but he won't tell me anything other than he's making friends. Ironically none of the people he's talking about are this two friends in his class that he knew before starting school. He says his best friend is someone named Christian. Christian is a girl. He says his favorite toys are the doll house, kitchen and race track. He says he plays with her the most. He rattled off a few more names... mostly girls 😊
Might take him to open swim this afternoon.

We went to the aquarium this morning. We sat in front of the huge tank while they were feeding the whale sharks. M was entertained. We got tacos on the way home and I'm about to grocery shop. So far it's nice that we've gotten out, but haven't been rushed. I live that since we have passes to the aquarium we don't feel pressured to stay for a long time if we don't want to.
PDQ

armpants, that's an adorable picture. I loved that about having a membership to the children's museum before we moved. We would go all the time and it'd be totally cool if Mira got cranky and we had to leave after 10 minutes. I haven't found anything here that's indoors like that. There's a science center that's awesome but geared for a little older kids.

12 hour shift today due to the Juggalo march and the "Mother of All Rallies" (I think there was MAYBE 100 people for that one, lol). I think technically I only have to do an 8 hour shift since I'm not full-duty. We'll see how I feel at the end of the night. 4 hours of OT would be nice, but today has been rough so far. I got out of the shower to find that kiddo had found one of my lipsticks and proceeded to draw all over himself with it. The worst was in his hair, so now it looks like he has a bad dye job. The nausea and vomiting have also been kicking up. Ugh.

girlonabike, any chance the nausea and vomiting could be due to acid reflux now? That's my reality, so why I mention it. I am still getting sick some but much less now that I'm taking OTC meds for it.

Instead of being sick 90% of the time, it's only 20% of the time. It's just during that 20%, it sucks. Also, I think its also partially due to migraines too. The fluorescent lights in my office kick them off sometimes.

We drove through our neighbourhood and we have a foundation! It was pretty exciting! Then I went to get paint and stain swatches to pick colours, and started looking at lights. So many friggin decisions!
It's birthday weekend/week for me! I bought a new dress, and am going out for dinner with one friend tonight, another group tomorrow night and Family on Monday! I am excited! I am also going to squeeze in a pedicure tomorrow. Life is good! Lol

We had soccer this morning, the other team played dirty. Upset the coach because two of our kids got hurt (even after being told to keep the ball on the ground). The ref (a teenager) also didn't know rules for the U8 teams and wasn't calling the other team out on it.

Hello! Happy Saturday!! This morning we took a family bike ride in the ravine, it was so pretty with all the leaves falling/changing but it was also CHILLY! (B was nice and toasty in his chariot with a blanket and cover). My mother in law is coming over in an hour to watch B so H and I can go for dinner and a movie! Date night!! We're going to see IT. I haven't had a chance to update since my acupuncture appointment, but it was really good!! He was so knowledgable and thorough. There's definitely a lot more to it that just poking you with needles. He asked about sleep habits, exercise, digestion, menstration, mental health... he thinks I'm "internally cold" and that I have blood deficiency and need more vitamins (esp. B) and more sleep... says that will help my kidney function which will alleviate some random issues. As far as my back he says lower back pain has a lot to do with your legs and he said my I.T. band was super tight, which was also making 1 leg shorter and throwing everything off. A lot of the stuff he said was a bit over my head, so it's hard to summarize - but he seemed really legit! And I did have 25 mins of needle work... it doesn't hurt except if you move much while they're in it's a weird cramping feeling. We'll see if this alleviates any of the stiffness I've had... so far I think I notice a slight improvement. TL;DR I'm having a nice Saturday and my acupuncture appointment went well

He actually just came home today!! He's been hanging with me in the garage all afternoon while I made the wine bottle table numbers for SILs wedding. He still feels like he was hit by a bus, but he's home so he's good.
