[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 395828, member: 6705"] You know, we used to joke about difficult child and Onyxx being the same kid. Maybe we're the same Mom, too?! Yeah - it's calming down right now (amazing), but there are days when [I]everything[/I] that's wrong makes me want to throw things, scream, cry, and generally be a difficult child myself. I mean there are times when the [I]dishes[/I] are not [I]exactly[/I] in the right place and I want to go off. The [I]cereal[/I] is on the wrong shelf - AAAAGGGGHHHH! Mostly it's every.little.thing. that happens, anywhere out of the realm of exactly how I want it to be. FWIW - I have to keep the cocoa mix in my bedroom... Or no one else gets any. One of the BIG cans of Ovaltine was gone - 2 days after I bought it. A subsequent room search (for other reasons) turned up a gallon-size Ziploc bag full of Ovaltine powder... Under her pillow.
