Do not adjust your monitor!
Apr. 15th, 2010 02:03 pmI have a new layout that I found over at
thrashmetal. The community is on hiatus, but there are still some very awesome layouts with very easy-to-follow instructions for how to install them.
This afternoon is going to be a very long one for me. In about 10 minutes, I have to leave so I can pick up the kiddo from school and cart him to his speech lesson. After that, he'll be going to his Occupational Therapy session. I'll pick him up around 4:00 PM, then we'll head to Mom's for dinner and rush to do his homework before his t-ball practice at 6:30. That won't end until around 7:30, and then we have a 15-20 minute drive home where I'll have to immediately put him in the bath amid protests of "I want to play games!" After his bath, it's time to relax here in bed with a good movie and hopefully he'll pass out before I do.
Of course, I just know he's going to ask for a snack because he's determined to eat me out of house and home lately due to his growth spurt. The good news is he often eats everything off his plate instead of leaving stuff behind, but the bad news is he has to eat all the time. I'm hoping his waist gets a little wider soon (where is he putting all this food if it's not going there?!) because otherwise we are going to have a hell of a time buying new school clothes come August. His pant legs are getting short on him, but they're still almost falling off his hips, and I know the next size up would be way too wide in the waist even if they were perfect in the legs. Ah, awkward stages of growth how I'd forgotten you from my own youth.
At any rate, this thing of not getting the kiddo home until almost 8:00 PM in the evening is getting really, really ridiculous. I'm just glad Mom's house is so close to the practice site, otherwise I'd be wasting tons of gas driving there and back, plus I'd be in even more of a time crunch trying to fit in homework and dinner time. Ugh. If not for Mom's insistence that he play in t-ball (even though we both dislike his coach this year and she sees how run down we both are at the end of the day), I would pull him out of it. He has fun, but I'm wondering if that fun is worth all the stress.
And now I have to leave.
