Wisdom for the ages.

The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it!
Quote by Marcus Aurelius Antoninus.
I don't think I could have said it better myself. I was just looking for a little wisdom for myself and to share. This seams fitting in these times of uncertainty.
That's all the love for you tonight.

More typos I am sure, but I don't care.

So it's the middle of the night and I can't sleep as usual. I thought I would pick up where I left off so abruptly the other day. Back to what I was saying about Nate.... so he is having trouble in school and keeping his temper in check, his school is sub par and just to prove it they sent me a letter telling me that they have failed to make sufficient improvement several years running. They have failed to properly evaluate him, so too has his private therapist. Not one person has filled out a BASC or CBCL or any other standardized form for idenifing emotional disorders. I however have pulled every last one of them off the internet and filled them out myself and identified several things going on, took nate to see a Dr. friend of mine showed her the results and she agreed to put him on a non stimulant but effective medicine. In the mean time I have sought new private therapists for reevaluation and proper treatment. Cross your fingers for progress and no more visits from the sheriff.

Noah is still pretty sick. I am not sure if it is taking him a long time to get over this or he caught something new. But in any case he sounds like a frog. If I spray him with Lysol will it go away? lol. Nate and I are the only one that didn't get sick out all this mess.

Anyway I don't remember if I told you all but the babies are going to daycare and Abby is in preschool and she just loves it. She comes home every day talking about homework and writting letters and is doing really well with writting her name. When she gets home she pretends she has homework to do and carries all her papers around and always has a pen with her. Then she usually colors for awhile until she cant take Noah throwing the crayons at her anymore and decides to put them up. Noah's favorite thing to do with crayons is to throw them one at a time until all 200 or so of them are gone.shesh!

Oh, and then there is me... I have a couple weeks left in this semester I have A's and B's and can't wait for this semester to be over. I have worked next semester'a schedule to be a better fit with my night schedule.

Ok well it's 1am and I would like to go to church in the morning so... once again I will try to get some sleep.
Peace Out Yall.
Much Love.

Since I was just laying in bed tossing and turning I thought I would get up and tell everyone how things are going. I am officially off orientation at work and I still like it there. Although I see this whole night and day thing is going to give me problems but hopefully I will be able to work through it. My friend Rich has been helping me with the kids while I am at work and they seem to like him.
Breanna got strep throat on Friday and Rich took her to the urgent care on saturday(cause I worked all weekend), but not before she gave the baby scarlett fever. So I took him to the ER Monday morning after I got off work. Gave him some Benadryl to help that horrible sandpaper rash and so we could get some sleep because I had to go back to work Monday night. Every seams to be on the mend now except for some runny noses and froggy throats, but so goes it in this world of mine.

In the world of Nathan.... I finally got this sub par school to meet with me in a team like effort to try and help Nathan. I recorded the whole meeting much to their dismay. Nate was in two or three fights last week I actually lost count. However I remember the highlights. On Monday or Tuesday Nate was kicked out of school for fighting and I flat out refused to go get him and the bases that they had failed to follow through with a study team and told them I would not let them complain to me about his behavior if they were not willing to be part of the solution. When I finally went and got Nate at 3:00 I told the principal her school was an epic failure. That lit a fire to get a meeting for nate and they still have not evaluated him proerly. I also had the privlage of speaking with one of Pinal County's finest Sheriffs... yet another fight this time with a seventh grader and from the looks of it, Nate won. No charges were pressed. On the up side Nate's grades have improved.

Sorry got side tract and now I have to go...
