I am one lucky girl --- 3 teacher contacts this week. And it's only TUESDAY!!! Do I live right or what?!
Two for one son, one for another. Instead of screaming I went out with girlfriends and had margaritas tonight. It seems a much healthier way to handle things (in my realm of reality anyway).
Gotta give those teachers credit for caring, though. If I had that job I'd totally have committed a homicide by now. But that's just me.
On the sock front --- I think some headway has been made. Son #3 has paid a total of $6 and he's ticked about that. We made it through the weekend with nary a sock to be found. I'm not sure if he's even wearing them at this point but at least they're not lying around the house. :)
And for those who are interested --- the pantry door is totally a lost cause. I have come to grips with that fact and I can handle it. I can't charge money for that infraction because it's too difficult to prove who the culprits are. That's OK -- we choose our battles. At the moment my battles are socks and F's. I seem to be the victor (so far) in one and haven't a clue as to how to win the other.
I just hope that a career in tattoo artistry can feed a family. Either that, or he'd better make a mint off of his "mommy dearest" book (which I'd better get a cut of!).
That visa to Kenya better come through -- I need some time away.

sounds like you do need time away, but kenya??? Well hopefully there you will be appreciated and you wont, I'm pretty sure, find socks lying around. :) Picking battles...I still have not concured that one yet, still working on it but doing much better. I'm still considering the txmomx6 boot camp. I hear it works wonders =p Love ya!
Happy Halloween!
Ha! Not too sure about the boot camp, although many children in our area have been threatened with it. Which probably explains why so many children fear me. Whatever. I can deal with that, but I do NOT want my darling niece and nehpew fearing me, so don't you dare!
Oh, and I'd better see some pictures from tonight!
Happy Halloween!
Love ya!!
