Very long story short, our checking got bottomed out (although he got paid today, but that's all spoken for, of course).  So I've got to present him his choices:cut spending drasticallytake control...

I miss being out in nature.  A Facebook post by my cousing made me realize this.  I do take a daily walk, but it's along a major route.  Too many cars, not enough birds & quiet.I really do need...

That's the cost of the testing & meetings with the center for my son.  I was under the understanding that it would be $200 (yes, that does seem low, but $3,000 seems high!).  Anyhow, I did submit...

I’m discovering that I pretty much know who I am.  I know what I value, what my morals are, what kind of company I keep.  Definitely not a perfect person, but that’s what growth is all about....

Lately, my son has been seeking me out, sitting next to me, even snuggling a little bit as I type on my netbook.  He's also more willing to hug, etc.  Not that he never blows up.  But his temper...

As part of "working together" with the school, the guidance counselor is sending weekly progress reports from the teachers.  Got my first one today.  All the same, pretty much.  Behavior is good,...

Doing better at keeping an exercise routine.  Need to temper my inclination to add more goals though--I tend to bite off more than I can chew! Had a good IM chat with my sister Friday nite.  One...

Regarding all my relationships, I need to take a more proactive approach.  Less worrying about “what are they thinking about me” or “I need to defend myself” and more focus on “how can I...

Well, my son saw the Behavior Analyst & Psychologist again--last day of testing, though he does need to complete a self-evaluation (which will be "fun" to get him to complete--not!) I also finished...

My son is in pretty much a loving mood today.  Nothing gooshy, just kind of happy, a little talkative & willing to give me a hug!  I am not looking a gift horse in the mouth!

Started the testing.  My son said it was alot of "puzzles" and questions.  He seemed to be engaged, so that was a good thing.  The Dr. that worked with him said that he was a smart kid, but there...

Spoke to my son's guidance counselor yesterday before I left work (mainly to set things up for testing et al).  Turns out that He did not write 1 thing on his history mid-term.  NOT ONE THING!!! ...

Feel like I have a cold coming on; took some airborne.  I need to sit down w/my son tonite & explain about the upcoming assessment (1st 1 on Friday).  I hope it goes well & that he cooperates.

Boring at work...son doesn't want to go to youth group & socialize...husband thinks son should "make his own decisions" now (yes, but we're still the parents!!)...tacos tonite were way too...

DH still sleeping in guest room.  Again, his choice, not mine.  But we're able to talk & converse as normal.  For all I know, he could be "plotting" something, but really, there isn't much he can...
