Here we go again!
And tomorrow morning EVERYBODY goes back ( )!!
difficult child 1 had many, MANY late assignments he needed to complete. He got some finished, but not all. I'm trying to detach and not care so much. He takes for.ev.er. to get things done anymore, I'm going to go back to having him do homework where I can see him. It's just so old and pathetic, I really want to move on and not think about it.
difficult child 2 is pretty much caught up on his late assignments. Just a few test scores his teachers have not posted, so I had to send reminder emails today since the quarter ends this Friday (and I'm pretty sure that last quarter his science teacher forgot to enter a grade on a makeup test -- don't need that happening again).
I had a major problem with easy child today over her gameboy and her attitude with me. It ended up with husband taking her side and I went nuclear over that -- if there's one thing that sends me into orbit, it's my spouse undermining my authority. A manipulative kid runs a close second.
I think I just need everyone to go back to their little daily routine at school so I can have some time to myself again -- 11 days of three kids all day with few fun breaks (mainly because of the two difficult child's catching up on homework all week) has seriously tweaked my own attitude. Mood swings galore... and the hormones aren't helping.
