[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 397755, member: 3444"] No, kids don't go back until the 3rd. And difficult child 1 is here until the 28th on homebound instruction. His tutor comes tomorrow. I ended up taking just the difficult child's to see Gulliver's Travels. Ugh. What a waste of my time. They loved it, though. At least it was 95 minutes of mindless escape, so it's not all bad! husband has been very understanding of the load on my plate right now, so I am thankful he's clued in and giving me some space when I need it. I'm my own worst critic, though -- I'm sure you all can appreciate that. It's hard not to feel like I should be getting more done -- I WANT to be more productive, but I just can't. So I go outside and talk to my chickens. Pull a few dandelions. Check the mail. Go back online. Lather, rinse, repeat. I know I'm rambling now, but I watched Charlie Rose tonight. He interviewed Javier Bardem and the director (can't remember his name now) of his recent film Biutiful. I started to cry when the showed a final scene from the movie where the father is asking his daughter to please remember him. I am still grappling with my father's loss in August, despite the huge difficult child mess he made of my childhood. So yeah. A lot going on in my head right now. [/QUOTE]
