The Couch! #21

Morning all, I awoke today with a very calm feeling, Im not gonna question it ...Im just gonna roll with it.

Jersey sorry you aren't feeling well, are you eating properly, lately?

Apt-sorry about your trip, glad your mom (we say maaa in Michigan...real nasal like...long aaaa ) is on the mend and I would mention the evals to T.

Morning SD, Trdleblue, Sconnie, Chopin and Granite...Miss ya'll too....

I'm sending out good vibes to MKAC today, via the universe... ((((MKAC)))))

....guess Ill work for awhile.

Thanks Lola! Today is my husband's birthday, the anniversary of my dad's death, marriage counseling, and I have a doctor's appointing in about 15 minutes to discuss anxiety medication. Perhaps, PERHAPS scheduling other stressful stuff today was not the best decision I have ever made.

I knew you had your plate full today, let us know how the doc goes, they are there to help. (((((MKAC)))))))

morning coucharoonies, just a quick note to say hope everybody has a good day today. Good luck to those with t today, I go after work today. Be careful in the fog sconnie! that can be scary. Well I gotta head out to work. This early shift is for the birds. LOL!

You gals seemed to need a hug this morning. Hello to everyone else. I feel much less ACK today. The cleaners are here. Yay!!! They're very nice and they are scrubbing away.

Everyone have a great day!!!

Sila, good job on the email, by the way.
Sconnie, did you get there safe?
Chopin, YEA! for the cleaners. Good job to you for getting everything ready.
Apt, good luck on your trip rescheduling and the evals. I bet that is really stressful.
Jersey, hope you feel better soon!

Lola, thanks again. The doctor's visit went okay. He was pretty nice. Said what I was describing was something that he thinks is pretty normal for most attorney-types.

Just wanted to check in and say hi!! Hope everyone is having a good day!

If I had to lay someone off right now... I know who it would be...I am so tempted just to offer her up to the wolves as she is driving me up a Flippin wall....

God granite me the serenity....

i dont know about serinity but i got some spray

Check out this link, its about the girl Sybil...the one with DID so long ago...

they are saying it was all fake...

Real Sybil admits Fake

It was a beautiful morning in Boston...

That is pretty Sally.... I am staring at a well used Foam coffee cup, stained with days of caffeine abuse past... ;(

I stole it for my screen saver.....I was tired of looking at Chopin.....LOL LOL LOL LOL

home from work. Shortest day ever.

My house is getting SO clean. When I walked into my bathroom, I thought I was going to cry. The kitchen is clean too. This company only uses eco-friendly cleaners. The house is starting to smell good again. Our house is full. We're still here, a friend came over, they sent 3 cleaners, then there's our 3 dogs.

Worth every penny, right chop?

T I t s or a s s? Because most people don't get tired of staring at either...

Id stare at both given the chance, you know I was playing.

Okay, so in addition to this being the one year anniversary of my dad's death, my daughter was told at school this year that she is NOT being invited to join the National Honor Society. Despite the fact that she has done at least four or fives times as much community service type things as my son did (working for charities, knitting and donating hats and blankets to Newborns In Need, etc), despite having great grades and incredible test scores, she was told that she did not do enough community service and is too quiet in class. I am just enraged on her behalf. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't know for a FACT that she has done more community service than her brother who DID get in, and also know for a FACT that she participates in class more than her brother's girlfriend, who ALSO got in with less community service than my daughter. They are still punishing her for missing most of last semester because she was so ill. It's like they think she was malingering despite all the doctor notes.

Oh, also, the history teacher who had said that he should not have to go to the work of helping her catch up or stay after school so she could take tests because she was just going to get a B anyway, did in fact give her a B last semester, surprise, surprise. I asked for copies of all of the tests, and they did not give us a copy of the final, and two of the tests they did give us that were supposedly B's, the teacher made math errors and they were actually A's. But, they still claim she got a B in the class. Thinking I should just pull her out and put her back in private school.

Lola, you had her butt saved on your computer to?



(kidding Chopin)

HELLO its on my phone and above my mantle....LOL

Is there no one you can protest to? Plead your case?

I sent an email to the vice-principal who was trying to help her before, about both situations. Not sure it will do any good. I said basically what I said here, and that I was upset by how unsupportive the rest of the school administration has been. I didn't say the part about considering moving her to a private school. Felt like too much of a threat.

MKAC, you are an attorney. Certainly they can't withhold the tests that they didn't give you? Somewhere there has to be a law stating that?

Vice Principals are overpaid babysitters.... in my experience....try the Principal with a cc: to the Superintendent that should get the ball rolling...
