have also been great to read.  Helps me set things right in my mixed up head!  I feel
like my life is spinnning just like The Storm.

  It is a crazy, crazy, feeling.  I see that

The meds     are really helping...

thanks to all of you for asking and checking in on me.

.but the antibiotics are to be taken for three weeks,

and it has only been one; it is looking good.  The headaches still come and go, but  not as

  Talk about expensive...

I am still PRAYING that the antibiotics work because I don't want to have surgery.

be the chauffer again.

..but it's all good    .

  I get to spend a little more time with her.

She is sick again.  Miss school today and will see the doctor tomorrow.

  Poor kid.

M.j.

has been written up twice this week.  Once for calling a girl (who was

where he got beat up pretty bad that he better with the next one, and he did
nice..

.since Saturday.  I think he is worried that I will go out again this weekend.

I have thought about it...

he he...

But we are getting back into that rut again.  I hate that rut ..

.same thing every single freaking day. .

..I need out of it.

Yeah, we do a lot together, but not go out dancing...

which I love.  I think

we should go out and dance at least twice a month.  WTF.

..nothing wrong with that.

If I have to go alone...

I will.  Now, I was talking to my friend this week and

b.j.

asked who I was talking to.  I told him, and he right away pipes up with, Are

you going out again? I really don't like the idea of guys touching you when
with the girls.

  You know   how a song comes on and all the girls look at eachother

and say lets go dance so you do and have a great time...

that we do do...

but I

guess I told a little white lie!!  I did dance with about 4 different
So, we are in the money and probably going to the big city to shop bigtime.

 Let's see if we can got the city to shop...

for food, clothes, electronics, look at cars,

Now if the weather is still as bad as it is now...

huge wind gusts, rain, hail, and freezing,

I won't go.  I don't like driving in that kinda weather so it will have to wait and honestly,
it doesn't look like it is going to get better so we may have to go next weekend..

.doesn't

I am in quite the mood today.   That is ME in the storm!

! I do not KNOW what is up with me. I think it is those crazy

me all worked up.

  They seem so real!!  Why do they have to seem so real?

Arrgghh...

I need to snap out of it.  I keep thinking of a blog    that I read the other day and commented on..

.the drawer..

.that freaking drawer keeps opening every so often and even

out and having fun?!

  I was invited to several rooms within close vicinity of the club...

by

guys that were 1/2 my age     !  One was an old boyfriend from like 20 years ago!!

  We talked

One guy, B, was quite the handsome guy.  He hit and hit on me..

.rubbed my back and

and young as he was..

.and been really bad, but I CHOSE not to.  Those of you

who know me are probably freaking out.

..if you had seen this guy, as my friend

And no i haven't talked to this guy again.

..even tho I had his number as he so

But I want to see what you all think.

..is that why I am quite the mood.

We had a good time at Grandma's house.  We ate ham, pork, red chili, salad, and vegetables.  We had tortillas and rolls and cherry cheese cake.

..yummy!

  It was delicious. 

I didn't pig out though, cuz when I got on the scale last week, I was surprised to see
that  I had gained about 5 pounds .  Not good!

!  I don't want to gain ANY weight.  I have

maintained my 40 pound weight loss and don't plan on gaining any of it back .

  Since then, I have lost about 3 of the 5.  Whew!!

  It is so hard to NOT gain weight.  But it is

Today is going to be a pretty full day.  Once I finish my blog.

..I am going to sweep, mop

and vaccuum, then we are going to take family pictures, and finally, I will got to work for
a couple of hours to get ready for the week.

  We were going to go do some major shopping after pictures, but it has been raining here all morning and I don't/won't drive in the rain...

not that far.  Fear..

.of driving while it's raining?!

  

I do like the rain, though.  We sure need it here in the desert of New Mexico!
are for three weeks and very strong!

  So things are looking good there

THANKS to all of you who support me with not publishing pictures here.  I will send u all pics of h.j.

's prom pictures.  Just give me a couple of days!  We are taking family pics today.

..so when we get the proofs, I'll send those too!

 

migraines are occuring more and more.  Another major one hit on Wednesday..

.right after I got to work.  I was sitting there trying to organize the homework  

I got my cell phone and called my husband at work.

  Like that is going to help!  I just needed to hear his voice!

I never call him at work unless it is VERY important.

  He gets to the phone...

I walk down the hall and tell the secretary that I need a sub.  She right away says, I'll see what I can do.   I say.

.. You do that, but I have a doctors appointment at 10.

..and will need one by then.

..thanks.

  Off I go.  By 9:30 they have a sub for me.  I leave and come home to lay down until 10:00.

  I go to the doctor and she reviews my CT scan from the previous week.

antibiotics which I had just finished the previous day, I was able to breath through my nose..

.it was the pain (in my head)that was killing me!!

I swear...

it felt like someone is/was grabbing my brain and twisting it.  It hurt that bad!!

She immediately writes me a prescription ...

a very stong antibiotic prescription and another for pain...

a prescrption pain killer.  God I love those.  I had run out from my last prescription of pain killers  .

..so this was good.

  I also got flonase to help clear things up!

Now, hopefully we are on the road to complete bliss.  But if this antibiotic does't clear up the nasal passages, I will have to have surgery.

..which means I will need two surgeries this summer.

..so cross your fingers and pray that

B.

j. is off and we are all off!!

  This has been a good year for holidays as

Many times we have to spend holidays without him because he has to work 12-14 hours and doesn't get home in time or leaves to early...

so this has been a good year with family time.  We have four days off from school.  That is great.

  I need the time too...

the meds are working, but the rest will help greatly.

We have seen a couple and I have the local car dealers on the lookout!   
She has been quite the little SNOT this week.

..she suffers from PMS      too and she turns into me during that time.

It is scary to see me.  So I cut her some slack in that area.  I know how it feels.

  Progress reports will come out soon

and that will play a role in if she gets a car.  If she doesn't, we just put the money into savings until she is ready for a car   .
I guess I should sign off.

..the pain killer is starting to wear off.

..I am beginning to see spots, and if I turn my head too much.

..I can feel the pain coming on strong.

I know a lot of you asked to see pictues of my baby girl in her prom attire. I will get them uploaded and EMAIL some of you..

.or those that requested a picture..

.a picture.  I won't post a picture on my space as I have some people who monitor my space daily and I do not want them to see my litle girl.

  And it is not any of you on my friends list...

it is a local person who does not like me

happen if this person gets a hold of the picture and be all over the net...

so if you asked to see a picture...

I will send one via email sometime this weekend.

We had such an amazing day.  Kids came and went all day.

  There would be a knock at the door and h.j.

would run to answer it and a friend would be there all dressed and they would look at eachother and say,
It was GREAT!

!!  Some of these kids I had in 5th grade and it was amazing to see them transformed before

It is times like these that you realize that your baby is growing up.

  It a weird, strange feeling. A happy, sad feeling.  It is hard to explain, but I am sure that those of you who are in the It is time for me to log off as I have to finish laundry and sweep, mop, and vaccuum.

  Then I am off to work  to get things ready for the week.  I also need to go to the W store, even though I hate to, but I want to get Easter stuff now because next weekend it will be a crazy place in there.  I hope you   all enjoy your week.

  I'm sure I'll be talking to many of you soon via spaces...

blogwalking.  Take care.  By the way, Happy April Fool's Day

Thank goodness for PAYDAYS that is a freebie on insurance.

..no money taken for insurance!

Yippee!!  They don't take much out of my checks for insurance because my husband work pays most of it.

..so I just have about $100.

00 taken out for dual insurances on vision and dental along with union dues, life, and disability...

so my check was a little over $100 more!!

She is going with a guy friend and a group of friends.

Next week we have FRIDAY off and MONDAY off for Good Friday and then what the district made up and is called Easter Monday...

Today I noticed they put it as another spring break!!  Hello!

!  We already had spring break and it is Easter.  We have to be careful what we celebrate cuz others might get offended at having Easter Monday off and Good Friday off!

!

I'll take it.  I can use another break.

...

already.  Only cuz I've been getting these headaches and they wipe me out!  So 4 days next week, along weekend and Monday off plus we get to

The INSOMNIA.

..how I hate to not be able to sleep!

  It is as bad as having nightmares...

I don't know which is worse!!

Well, it is official.

  The car is DEAD!!  We got a call from the insurance company.

  And the damage is worth more than it is worth by blue book.  For airbag replacement alone and to replace the dash is nearly $4000.00 and that is not including the damage to the front end and side AND to the front end as well.

..previous pole dent.

    That was my doing!Question Mark

Like mother; like daughter.     We have hit three poles (together) in less than two years.

  I am winning with 2!  Oh well, life goes on and no one was hurt.  We are looking at a check of about $7500.

00 which we will use to buy a used car for h.j.  One that is about $4-5000.

00.  The rest we are going to use to buy new tires for the truck and fix that up a little, and  put some in savings.     So it is all good.

 

They better give us the $7500.00.  I will fight for it.

That car only has 25,000 miles on it!  I have faithfully paid my insurance every month on every vehicle so they have to pay what the value of it is since they totalled it!!

  Right?  I am a fighter and will get what it is worth!!

Getting back to work today was not fun!! I don't think I slept, except for 2-3 hours on and off!

!  Now I am exhausted.

We got one of h.

j.'s grades changed from report cards from on F to a C. All work was done so she gets the right grade.

  That cheered us up!!  Yippee!

!

Only 4 more days to go till Friday and payday!   I love Fridays that are also paydays.

  That is the best Friday of all.

Well, that is the high and low points of my day.  I was going to stay away from the computer    , but needed to have a fix before getting on with my day.

  Now I've got papers to grade and help the kids with their homework and go over the behavior plan with the kids too.  Hope you all enjoy your week and I will be around blogwalking soon.

I had forgotten all about it.

  So I checked my voice mail and answering machine and nada nothing ...

no message.  So I guess no newS is good news?  I had a CT scan to see if I had/have a blockage in my sinuses, because the dr.

thinks that may be what are causing migraines...

which are coming more and more frequently and boy...

they take me down...

for four days!! I will lay in bed for 4 days and do nothing but sleep    .

  I cannot live like that!!  It is horrible.

  So, I have been taking migraine pills and have a new pill that I take at any sign of a migraine and it disolves and is supposed to stop the migraine from coming, but I haven't had to use it yet.  Hopefully I won't have to.  I have been on antibiotics and I hope that is clearing up any infection.

..blockage.

..whatever is wrong up there!

Then, all will be well!  When I hear what is up..

.I'll let you know. 

BTW.

..Anna Nicole Smith's autopsy report.

..Accidental overdose !

  Not surprised.  In the last 6 months, I have received or been prescribed (by two different doctors) approximately 6-8 prescriptions.  Why?

  You ask?  Well, they prescribe one medicine that doesn't work..

.so they prescribe another.  One prescription I was given 3 scribes.

..an antibioitic, a migraine scribe, and a prescription nasal spray!

  That did not include the migrained pills I already had and had been using, my 2 regular medicines that I take, or my nightly use of melatonin for sleep aid.  That is 6..

.right there.  I don't take them all at once, but I probably have 8-10 prscription drugs   in my medicine/lock box.

  I don't take them all. I have a sleeping pill scribe that is there..

.just in case, and a anxiety pill..

.just in case, etc..

.I can see how it can happen, especially if you just lost you first born and only child for 20 years.  I bet I would take more of the medicines I have if I had to live through the hell of losing a child.

..no matter what the age!

Loss of a child..

.There are no words to express how she must have felt. I think she died of a broken heart .

..that is what I think.

    She missed him every single day and wished that she could be with him and did not understand why god did not take her instead.
hide eggs and gift easter baskets.  We have a huge dinnger at my mother-in-law's house and my mom and dad go if they don't have to work.

So it is a nice break for all of us.  I look forward and love this holiday.
We had a really good week!

  On Thursday, we, (b.j. the kids and I), took my mom to eat    at her favorite place in the big city.

..about 75 miles away from my small town.

 

We had a great meal. Yummy!  I ate blackened trout, b.

j ete steak and shrimp, and h.j., m.

j., and my mom ate the ultimate feast which contains~

crab legs, lobster, fried shrimp, sauteed (sp?)shrimp, and salad.

  All of us ate everything on our plates...

it was that good!!

Then we went to Barnes Noble and stayed there for over an hour.

..I love being in a book store as it is so fun to cruise the aisles and aisles of books, especially children's books!

!  We had a nice ride home, reading and discussing the books that we had purchased.

 We definitely need to do that more as a family.

It was nice to travel and talk and discuss cool books!
couldn't make it because she had to work the nightshift and didn't get up in time, but we have plate ready for her for today.  The only thing with dinner
at my house was a bit of drama with h.

j.   Boy, her grandpa laid into her..

.the first time he EVER raised his voice.  He told her to be glad that she has what

she has and to quit acting like a spoiled brat and act her age!

!  Boy, she

working on a displine/management program for her as she surely needs it.  We all will be involved, including m.

j.  We are going to have family meetings and start

I hope to blog walk a little later.
post it for you all to see!

  Thanks for your comments...

it's abvious that some people like bright colors

I don't know what  we will do if they total it.  I am hoping it is fixable and will be safe when it is fixed.  I don't want her driving an unstable car, either.

  So...

we will know what

the insurance is going to do by Friday.  H.j.

is actually doing quite well without

she has done wrong, an accepts what the punishment is.  Since she is not insured on
our other two vehicles, she cannot drive them and we won't risk it.  It's been kinda nice
realize it.

  I am going to sign off for now...

I am extremely tired and have to have

I know.  It is soooooooooooo bright!!

  Some of you may have fainted from the brightness! Be honest now.  My mother in law came by earlier after I called her and told her to come see my newly painted laundry room.

  Unfortanately, I did not see the look on her face when she first saw it, but my husband said it was close to what the little smiley did before he faints! But she was real nice about it and said she REALLY liked it!!

I beleived her kind words...

but b.j. says they were just kinds words because HE saw the look on her face!

!     She was mostly shocked because everyroom, except the kids' room are white..

.white as white can be.  So she was really shocked.

  She was expecting white, white, white laundry room!    But instead saw a very, very green painted laundry/pantry room!!

Some of you may be thinking...

oh, it is not that bad.  But it is..

.really it is.  I am lover of white paint.

  I don't know what got into me to tell my husband green when he asked me what color I would want to paint it.  I don't know what on earth I was thinking 

Ok.

...

I have more to share...

but it is already past 11 o'clock. past my bed time and I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and can't sleep in.  I just wanted to share this with y'all so you could see before laundry room and after laundry room.

  Let me know what you think about our green room.  Like it?  Too bright?

  Love it?  Hate it?  LYAO?

  Be honest...

you won't hurt my feelings. 

We took everything out of the laundry room/pantry..

.took all the cabinet liners off and washed the walls.  Now we are ready to paint.

 

I just finished my last cup of coffee   and b.j. and m.

j. went to get hair cuts so when they get home we will start.  I took before pictures and I will take after pictures.

  We are painting in a light pastelish color green.  A little bit brighter than this color!  Of course, the rest of the house is trashed just from cleaning out the pantry/laundry room because we took EVERYTHING out and all that stuff is in the living room, kitchen, and dining room.

I cannot believe how much junk we had in there.  And under the appliances..

yuck.  Not as bad as i thought, but not all that clean either.  The kitchen is probably worse and we'll clean under those appliances today.

  Then we have two rooms done during spring break   .  Then we are going to go shop in albuquerque a day and b.j.

is going to go look for antlers one day while I go to lunch with a friend.  So after today..

.we will stop cleaning and finish up on Saturday and be done by Sunday.  I will have to go work a while on Sunday.

..about an hours worth since I didn't get everything done on FRIDAY since it was parent/teacher conference day.

  But I got more than half done so an hour, hour and a half and i'll be done and that is all the time i am spending at the school during my vacation...

1.5 hours!!

Well, the guys should be home soon...

I think I will go prep to paint.  YOU have a great day..

.I have no updates on the car.  Insurance is checking into it.

  WE pay only 500...

that is the deductible.  It may be a total loss..

.since the airbags deployed that alone is 3000.$ to fix.

..at least.

  So we'll no more on Thursday. 

Okay, here is a question for all my blogging friends and other people who visit my site.  What do you think it means when somone says via thier message status bar that you get what you get because you asked for it.

?

And what if they wrote this message after reading my previous 2 blogs?  Do you think that people get what they get because they asked for it?

I got a status message...

if you look under my pictures you will see that this was written through someones status message and i took a picture of it for you to see and give me your input on what you think this person might mean.  I think, because this person, hates me, that it is a way of saying that my daughter deserved to be in a car wreck.  What do you think?

I was talking to my friend, e.w., on the phone when the other line rang.

  I answered it and it was h.j. crying.

.. Mom.

.there was a..

.a..

.a..

.cat in the road and I swerved to miss it and I hit a pole!   *sob*  *sob*

We took off and found where h.

j. was and her and her friend were okay, but the car was not in good shape! Which, of course, is okay.

  As long as the kids were okay.  But lots of damage to the car..

.poor h.j.

was freaked.  She now knows that she doesn't have a car to drive for quite a while!!

  Poor thing.  That is the only vehicle that we have her insured on and we won't put her on the other cars, so she is now carless!!

I'll keep you informed as to what the damage total is and how h.j. is feeling!

!

H.j.

is doing well.  She went to go eat at a friends house and she just called to say her and her friend are coming over to die their hair!!

  So she is all good.  Thank God!!

We'll know more tomorrow when we get estimates and talk to insurance.
First of all, let me take my foot out of my mouth.  I am a bit embarassed by my bitchiness from my last blog where I complained about the high school not meeting the needs of my daughter when she was sick!

!

I had a break between conferences today so I took that opportunity to go to the high schol and get h.j.

s report card.  Mind you, I was petrified to get her report card because as far as I knew she didn't get or do any of her make up work from when she was in the hospital!!

I was ready to battle it out!!  To fight for my daughter who was sick and missed at least 10 days of school in February!

!  I had met with then and they had a plan to where she could catch up, but every time I asked h.j.

about it, she said that they weren't

doing what they told me they were going to do!
So, I was a bit upset and had sent notes and called, but never heard anything back.
I go get her report card, take one look at it, and nearly begin to cry.

  Her grades weren't straight F's as I imagined!  They were actually decent.  She had one F, but that was a scare tactic from the teacher.

  She was one point away from a D, but the teacher didn't give her the point because she wanted her to put more effort and work harder this last nine weeks, and since she is doing soooo much better, I know she will improve.  So, really, the only thing wrong was that they didn't inform me that they were just grading her on what she had completed before she had been absent so long.  That little bit of info would have been a huge stress relief for me if I had known.

  H.j. didn't have to know because she might take advantage as that is a trait of many kids!

!  So we are all happy on the home front and may end up out of town more than once in the next 9 days!!

I am seeing RED! Here I sit typing without the flipping internet.   It has been down for 2 days…and I am pissed.

I finally …hoping that when I do get back on, Testing is done! Hurray!!

Only 3 make-ups today! I don’t think my kids did too well in math! Why?

You ask? It is too early to test these kids! Most of the material had not yet been taught…so the poor kids…they tried their best.

  …and think and think until finally one fell asleep! Did I wake him up? No, I let him sleep.

Why? He was He woke and finished his test just as all the rest! I am 100% caught up with work and I am actually even ahead.

conference schedules are set. All papers are graded. All lesson plans are done.

And all material is ready for the upcoming week. One made the “A” honor roll! That is 63% of my class!

Some were close, by just 0.1 so next time…good luck. We are going to stop first in Roswell to see the Alien Museum!

Then we are going to see the Alamo! I was thinking…yeah…thinking the other night. I thought…did I not claim h.

j.’s braces on our income tax?!

No…I had not! So…off I go to H R block and explain my problem. I paid at least $10,000 on that face…do I get a tax break.

I asked. What did they say? Yes…let’s complete an addendum on your tax form.

We do and…to my pleasant surprise…we got back another $1300.00 paid ($68.00) and nearly $400.

00 more!! How great is that?

! My dryer broke down! I thought I was going to have to do without, and I though we would have to use some of our vacation money, but my handy hubby got only cost $40.

00, so I love him even more! I can’t get on the net! Aarrgghh!

! I wish, I wish, I could do without…but obviously when she evaluated my teaching. This, even though she really doesn’t like me because I am a strong union member and a union rep.

That just proves that a good teacher can be in the union and still teach productively! services until Monday. Damn it!

!! Oh, that makes me mad!

! WTF? The person who was supposed to come today didn’t get the freaking email!

I am pissed and having withdrawals!! …and don’t have as much time to be on the net.

I am very disappointed with Qwest! And what is the deal…? I called Qwest 3 times!

Each time I talked to someone who had very strong accents!!

It is hard enough trying to figure out a solution when you cannot understand what the hell the other person is saying!

?!

So…till Monday evening…two more days…I hope to see what you all have been up to and hope all is well.

I guess I’ll vaccuum and go to sleep. That is all I can do and it is only 8 thirty p.m.

I’ll just get more done in the next couple of days!? Right?

Like clean my closet. Or clean the pantry? I can get more sleep.

I can make some science tests or clean out my bottom filing drawer cabinet. How about go to dinner with a friend? I can clean the kitchen cabinets.

I can clean under the beds. I can wash the windows and shampoo the rugs. I can cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner, for once!

Nah…I think I’ll just go to bed! I am upset with my family because they cannot get along. The kids fight with each other; b.

j. argues with m.j.

and b.j. and I argue over the arguing!

It makes me sooooooooo sad to see that my husband does not have good relationships with his two children. How sad is that? It makes me really sad and makes me think twice about going on a family vacation.

Maybe I’ll just fly to Reno again (by myself) and stay there while b.j. and the kids go do something and learn to be around each other!

I can just see all of us (together) driving 12 hours…Not a nice thought! *sniff* *sniff* I don’t know what to do. I have a week to think about it.

I’ve already had second thoughts (of not going) before the battle begun today…I’m just tired and have thought that staying home for a week and just relaxing would be so nice. I am so tired and have had such a hard time getting over this sinus crap that doesn’t seem to leave. I’m always exhausted!

I just don’t want to go on a vacation if we can’t get along as a family. *sigh* Maybe I’m just over reacting and having POST menstrual sadness! That seems to happen lately.

That is why I can’t wait to have my surgery and be done with all this PMS crap! Okay…guess I’ll watch the 1 vs. 100 and The Apprentice and hit the sac.

This time change is going to have me all worn out by the end of this week. I HATE THE TIME CHANGE!!

! Why do they wreck havoc on us twice a year with the time change? Ugh…I don’t have anything nice to say…so I’ll just say goodbye for now and HOPE they get this net problem fixed BEFORE I get home from work tomorrow.

Night y’all. Now I am REALLY pissed off!!

They said they would have it done by today. So I get home from work and Qwest is here (JUST GOT HERE) and he tells me it is the outside lines and that he won’t need to come inside…so I go run a couple of errands and come back home and I see that he is still working on it. We go to register h.

j. for her junior year and as we leave…I look and he is gone..

.WTF..

.! I had just looked at the modem and it was still flashing!

? I thought…”Well, I’ll check when I get home. I get home…NO INTERNET!

!! Aarrgghh!

! I call them and they inform me that it will be fixed within a couple of hours or by early morning! Like, thanks a lot!

! A lot of good that is going to do me now! It is 7 06 p.

m…let see how long it takes?! I guess I am just in a shitty ass mood.

I am grumpy and I hate it when people are incompetent. The high school admin and teachers/counselors have pissed me off and they are going to see the bitch in me when I go Friday for conferences! I have called, left messages, sent notes, left voice mails… I hate it when people don’t call you back.

I asked h.j. ten million times if she was caught up and she says the teachers wouldn’t give her the work because she needed this…so I sent it, then they said they need that…so I sent that.

Finally I left messages and still…I don’t think or know if h.j. ever finished her work from when she was in the hospital…no one filled me in as to what she needed to do…two teachers said they wouldn’t have her make up the work because they didn’t want to overwhelm her any more, they would just start her off where they were currently, so that was nice, but the other teachers said to be done at school.

  H.j. said they never did what they told me they were going to do…so now I am worried sick that she has F’s!

I know a lot of people say, “Well, she is a sophomore, 15 years old, she should be able to see what needs to be done.” Well, they didn’t and still don’t get to see how mixed up she is or see how unfocused she is. Well, when Friday comes…I’ll see her grades and we’ll go from there!

If I could just change my mood. I feel anger/sadness inside. I am mad at the world!

! I didn’t sleep for crap last night because of “the argument” that occurred yesterday! I don’t want to go on vacation.

I want to just stay home and rest. IS THAT CRAZY OR WHAT? Who doesn’t want to go on vacation?

Well, we went to Reno, NV in June/July and drove over 1000 miles. I hate driving long distances. The thought of the kids fighting…the thought of what needs to be done here at home…the thought of all of us not getting along!

Oh, I don’t know! I don’t know! B.

j. is upset because I am upset. And he and m.

j. are the ones who set me off!!

Like I said yesterday, I could fly to Reno again just to visit by myself. It won’t cost that much…just the ticket to fly. I’d stay with my brother.

I could stay for 10 days! Or 12 days! I guess I don’t have any good news.

I can’t think of a single good thing. Ahhh…yes… All my students are absolutely, completely done with testing. We got all the make-up tests done today.

So 100% of my students completed their tests! We are DONE! So that torture is over.

Thank God!! Ok…since we are back on a normal schedule, I have papers to grade.

I guess I’ll do that since I can’t be on the internet. I don’t need to cook since no one wants to eat. Why is it that when I cook…everyone already ate.

When I don’t cook, everyone is I hope to talk to you all real soon. Miss ya. Well, the internet, obviously is back.

  I did not get hooked back up until I got home from work at 4 o'clock today, March 14, 2007.  What a relief!  I cannot believe how much I missed it.

  I am glad to be back! Vacation is a no go.  I just haven't been feeling all that great.

  Lots of headaches, tiredness, and exhaustion.  We might go fishing, go up the mountains, movies, etc..

.And get some stuff done on the home front.  We have a lot to do.

  We will shop and just hang out.  So it isn't really bad news.  Just a decision on what we should or shouldn't do.

  I don't want to be driving that long with a headache...

migraine...

the dr. said yesterday.  It just hurts too much.

  The migraines are horrible pain and make me cry and sleep!!  So vacation doesn't seem all that good at this time.

  We'll just keep saving and go from there.   Well, I have got to eat, grade some papers, and then I'll be back for sure!!

Bye for now...

Then after lunch, I go to the office and my son is standing there...

he had just gotten into a fight!  Aaarrgghh!  He didn't start it, but threw a punch so he is now suspended till Wednesday.

  I called the cops again because when m.j. went to walk away the kid broadsided him and knocked him down and kicked him and hit him and all m.

j.could do was lay there and cover himself to block the kicks/punches!  Ooohhhhh!

  I was pissed off...

wtf...

this kid kept on kicking/hitting and no one around/adults to protect him.  His friend finally saw what was going on and tackled the kid to get him off m.j.

 The cops came and told that kids that

when you THINK you are defending yourself and you knock someone down, then
you are no longer defending, but assaulting, which didn't matter because the other kid hit m.j. first and m.

j. hit back.  They both had bloody noses, but m.

j. got the best of it cuz the kid caught him by surprise and kicked while he was down.  So i learned today that you have to be 13 to file charges.

..i couldn't as a parent.

..wtf is that?

  Oh well, at least the kids was scared and crying when the cops were telling him.  And I told his parents that i called the cops because i didn't think it was right for the kid to hit him while he was down!  It was all decent and stuff and they were mad at their son for that so.

..okay.

Hope you all had a better day than me.  M.j.

is not in trouble as he did not cause the fight.  But he does have to make up his work. 

4 more days of testing.

..can't wait till it is over.

..i could give two tests a day, but it overloads and stesses the kids.

..so i take it very slowly.

..some teachers finished last week!

  How?  I don't know as it takes 2 hours per test and last week were half days.  Go figure!
