Not Now, Please!

The very minute we were supposed to head out the door to take Dwight to his Feedback Appt. with his NeuroPsychologist, the phone rang. Caller ID told me it was Patrick’s elementary school, so I HAD to answer. What if he was sick?
No, he’s not sick. His shot records do not show that he’s ever [...]

By The End of the Day

I felt so guilty…I mean, what kind of Mom thinks this? But as I stared at my 3-year-old who was once again, challenging me…
Yes, I confess. I looked at her and thought, “I usually don’t feel this way, but today I really truly do NOT like you. In fact, I wish I didn’t have to [...]

Assuming the Position

So this is how it’s going to be, is it?
Yesterday my daughter refused to listen to me. Especially once company arrived, she just pushed and pushed. Since my body kept wanting to contract, I just wasn’t a good mommy yesterday…I didn’t follow through with my threats. I shouldn’t have even made any…
This morning, I’d had [...]

My poor husband has really been taking up the slac…

My poor husband has really been taking up the slack lately. He’s been working his butt off, then comes home and ends up making dinner. One of my kids even implied that I “don’t cook.” It’s not that I don’t cook…I just that I haven’t cooked that much lately. There’s a difference, you know!
But tomorrow [...]

The other night I was getting ready for bed and was still a little ticked at my man. I was trying [...]

A Lifetime Television Moment

My husband drives me nuts…just when I find something to gripe about he shuts his computer and offers to work from home, even though he’d planned on meeting with his boss, so I can take Dwight to his 2 hour appointment without two clingy kiddos. Was he reading my blog? No, he was just being [...]

Random Thoughts

Not looking forward to tomorrow. I go in for an appointment at 9 a.m. I am going to try to get there early because I have to pick Dwight up from school and have him at his appointment at 11:00. His appointment will take at least 1 hour to get there. We’ll be cutting it [...]

The Baby Shower

“So are you ready for your shower tonight?” Suzy asked me as we chatted on the phone.
“Not really…” I answered back.
I felt horrible for saying so, but my expectations with all the drama I’ve had to deal with (with just a couple of the women) was enough to make me want to skip a shower [...]

School Assignments

Dwight had to write a paragraph about himself for English. I wish I’d had the opportunity to include a disclaimer with his report. You know the one that starts off with, “The views and opinions expressed in this report is solely the opinion of the student…” Yeah, I guess if I could do that though, [...]
