jennlin · December 2011

i had a rough day yesterday. long day at work, and then a day full of errands. by the end of the night, i was literally exhausted to tears. i can't believe it's only tuesday.....well, i can believe it....it just sucks.

today will be a better day though, i hope. h will be staying at work late (until 4), so hopefully i can squeeze in a nap before he gets home.

have a great day!

Good morning! I work up with a headache which is no fun. I need to drink some water and hopefully it will go away. I have a pretty full day today, but hope to leave on time. I've got some cookies to bake tonight, just have to decide which ones from my long list of ones that I want to make.

Have a good day!

hi! I'm being stupid and looking at my computer in bed when I really should get going... I'm just wanted to sleep SO much since I got back from my trip! I don't know what it is. Although weirdly, when I was there I slept like 5-6 hours a night (which is unusual for me). Now I feel like I need at least a full 9.

Anyway... I guess I should get going now!

Good Morning! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that whatever was making me feel queasy and miserable yesterday is gone today!

Today, I go out and clean this morning. Then this afternoon I'm scheduled for a much needed massage... ahhhhh

Ooh weird. Are we all having an off morning?

I woke up on time, but puttered around for too long this morning, so I came in later than I like. Then I dropped my badge somewhere and couldn't get into the building. I had to walk around to the front of the building (I park and usually enter through the back) to have the receptionist let me in. But then an half an hour later someone called me to tell me they found my badge in the parking lot.

I'm just hoping for a quiet day today.

Hi guys. I'm a sad mama today. On Friday, Tman got sentences sent home for being disrespectful. We were upset and disappointed because we really stress respect, especially for authority, but also just in general, for everyone. But, we were planning a weekend in Leavenworth and we were all really excited, so I figured his excitement was kind of making him lose his self control.

Yesterday, I show up and the teacher has me come inside to talk to me. She shows me Tman's assignment folder which she usually goes through on Fridays, but there was a sub on Friday. She showed me SEVEN pages of all scribbles. He was sitting at his desk pretending to do his work but just scribbling. He had said he was done. So, he had been disobeying, being lazy, and lying. This was pretty much all last week. His teacher told me that this time of year is really hard for kids to stay focused, but this was just such deliberate defiance, that there is just no justification for it. He had been doing so well in school, too. His grades are still awesome 95%+ average in every subject, but this act just breaks my heart. After a lot of discussion, I'm confident that he won't ever do anything like this again, and honestly, I'm not even sure that he really understood how bad it is until he was caught. I still think his heart is pretty innocent. I really hope and pray that this is just a thing and not the start of another trend of bad behavior like we had at the beginning of the school year.

Being a parent is so hard. Every phase has it's different difficulties. This current difficulty is letting your child make their mistakes and learn from them. I no longer have complete control over him. He makes his decisions and has to suffer the consequences. It's really hard.

Aw, it sounds like everyone is having an off day or two. I hope it gets better for everyone!

I'm doing chores and hoping some packages come in today. We're expecting a few more Christmas decorations, some good books, and my H's Christmas present. I'm a little annoyed because I purchased gloves and wraps for both of us and a punching shield, but got an email today that they were completely sold out of their inventory on the shield and weren't expecting to get them in until MARCH. Oh well, at least the gloves will be cool.

Good morning, everyone!

Sorry to hear that it's such an off morning for everybody.

Here, I'm mostly just really tired. I need to get some cleaning done and make some snacks for our final childbirth class tonight, too, and all I want to do is go back to bed for a couple hours.

Poor Tman - I hope he can stay focused. And sorry mamma, that sounds frustrating.

I had a low key night at home since DH is OOT. I made a quick and easy dinner and spent the rest of the night making Christmas ornaments.

Good morning everyone!

I am headed to the gym here for my first session with my trainer in about two weeks (between Thanksgiving and a weight-lifting competition she was in we weren't able to schedule anything) and I am dreading it because I know it is going to suck. Worse yet, she's leaving the gym at the end of the month so now I have to find a new trainer (which I had to do in September because my first trainer left). I really want some consistency here so I'm thinking about just ponying up the big bucks to get their elite trainer, who has been there for at least 2 years and seems to really like training... I need a trainer through the holidays for sure!

Other than that, I'm going to run some errands and tutor today. I need to go to Barnes & Noble to get my kiddos that I tutor some books to read for the holidays. They have a reading recital on Thursday where they all read aloud and I am sad to miss it so I want to have a little book for each of my girls to receive as a "way to go" gift. So, need to track down a bookstore and also buy some cookies for their after-reading reception.

Hope you all have a lovely day (or a better day if your day started off weird, like half of ours appear to)!

oh and yeah, I think I have a yeast infection Mainly, it just makes me angry how much time I waste on stupid things like this because I have to use Hall Health and it SUCKS. I finally found a Dr I like, but I just miss Group Health so much and my Dr there. I could actually talk to her on the phone and she would write me Rx for something like this vs. going in and wasting a ton of my time. It's SO stupid.

And what's worse, I forgot when I got my antibiotics (long story) that I always need to get a backup Rx for yeast infection because I always get one now when I take antibiotics. Ugh.

I hope everyone's day gets better!

I slept in until 9 this morning, and it was wonderful. I'm taking a "personal holiday" today, but I have to get a cavity filled at 2:00, so it's not all fun. I still need to shower and eat breakfast, and take a photo of my pathetic 2 foot tree.

good tuesday morning!
