[QUOTE="2ODD, post: 418575, member: 11582"] Thank you for thinking of me tonight. All positive thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated. My husband surprised me yesterday by not going in to work. When I woke him thinking that he was going to be late, he told me that he had some leave that he had to use or lose. It wasn't until later in the day that I found out that he's off until Monday. This has been the longest 2 days of my life. My son brought home his report card full of A's with a couple of B's. What a smart little guy!! He was disappointed that, although he had the highest achievement grades, his math grade wasn't higher. He was very upset. My husband told him that the letter grade was based on his test scores and assignments. Of course, my son was so distraught over the grade that his listening ears were turned off. Just to prove himself right, he dug out one of my son's test papers to show him that he had made a mistake. Let the blow up begin. Once again, I got in the middle and got my husband out of the room explaining to him all along the way that there is no reasoning with my son until he comes to a calm. It wasn't 5 minutes and my son was asleep on the couch. Sometimes I wonder if my husband will ever get that there are times that you just have to walk away and wait for my son to process his thoughts and emotions then go back and visit the topic again when all is calm? Other than that, it's been a pretty good day, in comparison to others. I did manage to get out of the house to take my daughter to preschool, file the taxes and pick up some milk. Of course, before all of that was achieved, I had to review with my husband where I was going, what I was doing, who I would be with and how long I would be gone a few times. He finally let me leave once I proved to him that I actually had the tax papers with me. *sigh* At least we made it through another day. So that no one worries, I have been in touch with CAPSEA and they have advised me on how to proceed and I have their number programmed in to my cell phone (under an alias) for when it is time. Night to all. Thank you again for all that you've done for us. [/QUOTE]
