I finished my book this morning during bfast. I really enjoyed. I’m contemplating doing a write up, IMO just about it. It took me quite a while to finish it, so I’ll probably skip that idea; however I think w the next one I should take notes and that way I can. Some of my fav bloggers do write ups.
B/4 heading to work I finally broke down and went through my trunk to see if my lost book was there. It wasn’t. Which means I’m going to have to buy a new, or at least hope that my MIL has it. (I called her during lunch and she said she’s going t look in her car/trunk too).
Traffic was semi friendly. I say semi b/c this bee-yatch, driving one of my dream cars, cut me off as I was turning left onto the ‘get on the interstate lane’ – arrogant lady! What makes it more humorous is that she too was going to the same exit I was going! How small is the world?!?! I was sitting in the left turning lane and noticed that she was there. Stupid heifer!
I say semi friendly b/c I was able to check my emails as well as my oil; speaking of which I should get more and fill soon or maybe possibly do a change!
When I got into my room I had the kids complete their box paintings. Since I had five plus kids to do the task and they were all boys I was able to remove their shirts so they wouldn’t get paint on them even though they were wearing paint smocks (note to self need to wash them tomorrow)!! They were pretty adorable wearing just their smocks. The rest of the day was easy; nice circle, fun centers, easy naps, fun twister playing math circle.
The floater had the gall to inquire about leaving our room if there are lots of adults like today. I respect and understand why she asked, but it wasn’t the time. Normally it’s just the 3 of us and today there were four extra. During rest time my CCT3 and I discussed it and decided it was okay for her to leave if our circle time was going well. We want her in there at 9 to help clean up and transition and make sure to be back in order to help with centers. There’s way more on this topic later on in the day, but I like to tell it in order so I don’t forget anything. So scroll on down.
During lunch I finally got all my back logged entries uploaded. I didn’t get to finish all the comments on last night’s entry. I wanted to let the two bloggers now I gave them some link love like my ‘friend’ said she did; hopefully I’ll remember to do it tomorrow.
The DR came in during snack, 2:30, to say she wanted to chat w me when we dropped down in ratios. Made me panic a bit. I hate detest abhor when somebody does that – tells you something important and then makes you wait to figure out what it is. I went in and found out;
1) The child I mentioned awhile back whose mom badmouthed us on FB; she misinterpreted my statement I said yesterday. She inquired about how well her daughter was doing wearing her glasses. My statement was honest: we haven’t really had much chance to work on wearing them since we’ve been working on so many others during circle. She said to child’s new SLT: the teacher
said it was too hard to work on so they aren’t doing it AND the DR overheard! She was upset and wants me to fix it. Now I get reprimanded for the idiot moms statement and have to beg for forgive-
ness ANDDDD bust my ass even harder than I am now!
2) To add frosting to that cake a parent has complained that we aren’t wiping their kids asses enough!
Now we have to watch the kids poop and check their bums more often. Also I’m doing a ‘butt check’ at the end of the day. Now the kids have to clean up by 4:30 and I get to make sure their faces and ‘cheeks’ are clean! I did it today and felt very strange. I told the kids what I was doing and the majority of them were okay with it. They actually dropped their pants and some of them even pulled their cheeks apart for me to see! I’m sure if somebody came in and saw me do it (I did it behind the changing table) they’d say it was crude, but I can’t do it in the bathroom b/c then I leave the other kids unattended! I could go on an on about this bs, but I wont.
3) Now onto the sprinkles on my icing: we aren’t allowed to let the kids cross the gender bathrooms!
We have 6 boys in underwear and 2 girls. In case you can’t tell that’s a huge difference. Now we will have four boys waiting to go potty instead of using the girls. The DR said we could let the boys use the girls, but not if a girl was in there! However the girls are in now way allowed to use the boys b/c it’s just plain nasty. The only exception is Dear Fussy b/c if she’s asking to go potty and wants to use the boys I’m not stopping her; it’s too much trouble!
Once again I could go on and on for pages of complaint here, but I wont. I was able to talk to my CCT3 and we both feel the same. We’ve decided that now the pregnant lazy ass floater will not be able to leave the room and come back; her sole purpose during circle is to make sure Jumping Tantrum wears her glasses! Also the EI and her therapist, since they get to do one on one work, will have to start wearing them too.
The DR said that whenever we feel overwhelmed like this to come to her and she’d try to help us figure out how to compensate and work on the goals better. Like there’s ever time to have a meeting with her; which I let her know. Anytime I try to talk w her it’s rush rush rush and interrupted. ERRRR, I find myself gritting my teeth right now.
Okay gotta get out w the bad. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,
When I finally finished my conversation w CCT3 hubs was doing the dishes in the house. I made his rice and prepped lunch, and ‘caulirice’ for my dinner. Then I took over so he could make his lunch and dinner.
Now we are watching NCIS and I’m done telling you about the day itself.
To keep up with taking responsibility:
Bfast – macerated strawberries w banana and oatmeal
IMO – I’ve done this combo b/4 and haven’t been impressed. This time I cut the berries up the
night b/4 and added sugar to make them a bit sweeter. W the oatmeal I cooked it with the
bananas for 2 mins then added the berries and cooked for 1 more min. The flavor was way
better, but the berries still had a bit of tart bite on the end. Now I’m wondering what the
berries would taste like roasted?
Snacks – pineapple
Lunch – this
soup w added veggies and c. red pepper
IMO – this soup was kind of bland. I didn’t have that much clam either; more potatoes. I hope the
other half has more meat tomorrow.
Snacks – 2 ritz like crackers and grapes, I also had a cup of hot tea
Dinner – caulirice and dad’s sweet and sour pork w 7oz vino
IMO – this was the first time I made caulirice. It was okay. I don’t know if it’d pass in a casserole
or if my hubs would eat it, but it was def doable. I’ll probably keep it up. I think I’d like to
try and mix it w the rice for him and see what he thinks. The main part was delish as
always. Aaron dug out all the water chestnuts and left them in the top of the bag for me to
eat. I tried to mix them in and get more meat, but it was a bit hard. I weighed the vino and
was shocked to discover that 200 grams is 7 oz.
Need to remember that Aaron found a third tooth from Sasha pup. This was a molar, but it wasn’t like what I found. It was more fang molary like. I still forgot to look and see what could be the cause of her death breath. Maybe tomorrow.
Allrighty, our episodes are done and I need to clean up for bed. The best part about the day was teamwork w the hubs. And dinner was easy!!!!
If you know what causes death breath please let me know so I can try to fix it!! Thanks for letting me vent…
