That the upgrade has solved the porn thing.
Thanks to my savior…..the person who ended my fuming frustration by offering to help me…Phat Mommy.
The upgrading thing was causing me some fear and she stepped in and offered her services. Phew.
I should be at the gym right now. But felt that I had too much to do at home. Hah.
My frustration stems more from the fact that CH does not share the same urgency about the SAME things as I do. But this goes both ways. He is worried about OTHER things. His list is a bit different from mine.
Breathe. Let it go.
Things that I have to tackle are…
– Hair cuts for me and the kids
– dental check ups for me and the kids. Apparently Adam’s mouth is a disaster zone…according to the people at school.
– CH’s business taxes
– Selling stuff
– Downloading all the video on the camera to the computer and preferably to a disk for safety..before Disney
There is more…..oh yes, there is more…but I will get to it all one thing at a time.
What is WAY more important to me is arranging our social calender 😉 . I am seeing my old high school buddy next week…very excited about that. However, I need to arrange a dinner with my best friend and some other friends that we have not socialized with in a while and then another couple wants to get together too and we haven’t seen them in over a year!
Phew.
We saw the prepartum therapist lady again yesterday. She basically just likes to see how we are doing with our grief and my depression. I find this hard as I don’t ‘feel’ depressed all the time. I have ups and downs and feel that I am getting on with it and dealing with my little Scott just fine.
As well as can be expected is the term.
She is going to refer us to a child therapist to see if Adam does have any OCD or ADD tendencies. I just want to make sure he does okay with school and to get help channeling all his energy.
She also referred me to a more ‘long term’ therapist. But sheesh. I will have to think about this. She feels ‘getting to the bottom’ of it all will help me…but I am more concerned about living in the now and the future than delving once again into any past baggage.
PLUS I want something that CH and I can both go to as I really do feel that he needs as much ‘help’ as I do. I would rather find some sort of couples therapy that can help him deal with HIS issues – depression, fears, etc.
Adam proudly wore pink today for the Anti-Bullying day they proclaimed here in BC. It was sweet hearing him explain it to his little sister…about how you have to stop kids being bully’s.
I was bullied a little bit by a new kid in elementary school. My dad stopped that. The kid used to harass me on my way to the bus stop….Dad just parked and waited out of site one day, so he could see what was happening. He stepped out of the car as we walked by..said hello to me and then hello to the bully. The boy never bothered me again.
I loved my dad.
Good one Adam! My boy didn’t have ANYTHING pink to wear so he compromised and wore red.
And Jess, being a super conservative 12 year old, scoffed “They want us to wear pink, but I don’t think so.”
“Don’t you care about why?” I asked.
“I do, I just don’t like them telling us what to wear.”
Sigh.
“It’s a suggestion, not anyone TELLING you.”
She wore black. As usual.
Gayle wears alot of pink anyways, adn donned her pick tee. Leah has a pink Jacket. I don’t have ANYTHING at all that is pink. Just my skin 😀
I think it is a swell Idea! And your dad was so cool to do that for you.
I only wish my dad would have stepped in to protect me from the bullies that used to torment me. Sigh. I find I’m a bit of a dragon now that I’m grown up. I’m kicking ass and taking names when it comes to kids who bully my kids.
As for a long term therapist…it doesn’t hurt to have a number to hang onto just in case you one day find yourself in need of it.
Wow crunchy you have a very full plate….you poor little darling..what a trooper…and as for anti bullying day..I think that is great…I read about it over at Josie’s blog..I think that is a great idea…and I am glad that your son was able to explain it to his little sister..that’s what it’s all about isn’t..get the word out to the kids and have them pass the message along…now all we have to do is work with those bully hockey or soccer parents….that drive the coaches, the players and opposing teams insane…
As for the therapist…I like you attitude…one for wanting to move on…two for wanting to include your husband in what ever you decide…therapist serve a purpose..but sometimes I just find them overkill….
I did as well as can be expected for WELL over a year and then? Well…I just agree with Redneck Mommy…It can’t hurt to hang on to the number if you need it.
And if you DO need it one day? It’s ok.
