[QUOTE="Jena, post: 255554, member: 4514"] Janet good idea. I have done the trail mix, you wanna laugh i put m&m's in it and the kids picked all those out and left the healthy stuff lol ofcourse. i run into issues, here they are i have 3 kids here 2 days a week that aren't mine. that's where my routine gets messed up and all havoc breaks lose so to speak. there is no effort made by wonderful boyfriend to routine them at all. ok great he does hw with them, and he helps yes that is good. yet when i walk in that door he has no clue where hte kids even are. he said oh i think difficult child and his difficult child are in backyard meanwhile their up in difficult child's room!!! omg. now clearly difficult child is too anxiety ridden to disappear yet i like to kinda of keep things organized to an extent. difficult child has "break time" after hw. yet not to reek havoc in the house. i give a set "snack time" to difficult child after school and before bed. she likes routine. i walk in on monday and wednesday it's a free for all kids are ripping into cabinets, etc. it's ridiculous. he can't handle the 5 of them. granted there's no blood shed, or anything yet he doesn't put enough effort into them. so i keep it all good tues, thurs and friday when i'm home yet monday and wednesday is a freak show. ok sorry that was a vent lol. marg i see your point and thank you for taking so much time to respond your soo good like that and i liked the story and see your point. difficult child's needinesss level accompanied by the change in moods every two seconds finished off by her anxiety makes it difficult for anyone to do anything around her that doesn't directly correlate to her. creativity you are correct. just wish i had the time to put towards it right now. i have to find the time. i had 2 no shows today so i'm home eating pizza and on here before i head out again.
