I could have died

Today in my history/english class I could have just died. We had to write a letter to our Senator or Congressman about Nafta and Chapter 11. I am just not up to par when it comes to this sort of thing. In fact I am at a real disadvantage when it comes to this class as far as the English part is concerned. Most of the students have recently had the teachers for an English 101 class, it has been about 15 years since I had English 101. So anyway, the teacher put my letter on this overhead projector and proceeded to rip my paper apart. I wanted to be somewhere else, that is for sure. The upside of the entire thing was my letter was completely re-written. So now when I go back and re-write it myself I know I will get an A. I still just wanted to die.
The kids are in sports this spring, AJ is playing soccer and Em is playing volleyball. Something else to add into the mix of things. I hope I can keep up. My meds seem do be working well.
No craziness today, I handled the embarassment quite well.

Break Time

Wow I can't seem to get any free time. We finally got the decorations done for AJs cub scout dinner. I used to not let anybody help me because I thought every thing just had to be perfect. Not that I did them perfectly.... just better, well let me tell you I have gotten over that!
I will take all the help I can get, even if it had tape all over and glue dripping off of it. Makes my creations look soooo much better anyways.
My printer was out of ink, so I did not get to do all I wanted but it will be ok.
My teeth still hurt, and its been like a week now. Im still not able to eat solid foods.
I tried to eat some cereal the other morning ouuch It hurt. I had to have soup today for lunch.
That's ok Maybe its good for me.
Im thinking maybe school was not a good idea, it really stresses me out.
Ok I know I cannot make all A's all the time, but that is what I want.
I got a B on my math test and now I am just devastated.
Especially when I got all 100% last semester.
I think Im going to enter a creative writing contest, but not sure what I will write about.
All the creativeness has pretty much been sucked out of me by life, whats a girl to do.

big day

Well I have been very busy working on my very first research essay for my history/english class. It has caused me much stress and I cannot wait till I am able to hand it in.
I am almost done, and it is very late. I still have to do my works cited page and an annotated bibliography. If I do not get a good grade, thats ok, because we have the opportunity to go back and revise. We shall see. I will probably not even know how I did for another couple of weeks.
I had to go to the docs today and get a script. Im not handling stress very well.
Now I am an official wt mom on prozac.
Its sorta funny but not.
Lets just see how I do on the meds.
I hate taking them, but I see no other way at this point. I can not live my life sedated on xanax forever!

They found WHAT in a ceiling!!!!!

Good Grief.. I could not even think about having one of these in my house!

REXBURG, Idaho(AP) Bessy the Burmese python is recovering in an animal shelter after spending two weeks dodging searchers and an infrared camera in a 57,000-square-foot apartment complex in this southeastern Idaho town.
The 8-foot-snake's hiding spot was found Tuesday by another "snake" _ a 100-foot-long device with a camera on the end normally used to locate plumbing problems in hard-to-reach places.
"It's the most interesting plumbing job I've had so far," said Kip Salas of Advanced Plumbing, who discovered Bessy in the bathroom ceiling after a three-hour search of the apartment below the unit from which she escaped.
"I'm just glad she's alive and not hurt too badly," Chelsea Stanford, the python's owner, told the Post Register.
After finding the snake, Stanford and animal control officers tried to lure her out with a white rat snack without success. So they lassoed Bessy with a steel collar and dragged her from the hole in the ceiling. Bessy received some scratches during her ordeal _ and an eviction notice.
"We're going to let it eat, then it's leaving the building forever," said Kevin Kennedy, the apartment owner, who wanted the snake out of the complex dead or alive.
Burmese pythons are native to Southeast Asia and some islands in the East Indies. They can grow to 20 feet, weigh up to 200 pounds, and live about 25 years. Not venomous, pythons wrap their bodies around small animals to suffocate them before eating them whole.
Bessy went missing two weeks ago after apparently escaping through a hole in a bathroom wall. Stanford put up notices around the complex about the missing python, which caused some residents to refuse to spend the night in their apartments.
"We weren't too nervous but we'll definitely sleep better," said resident Ben Brown after Bessy's capture. "As long as there aren't any rattling noises in the walls."

pink slip

It was a proud day in the P. Household yesterday. Lil AJ got his very first pink slip on the bus. I guess he was 'getting a little hyper' at least that is what he told me. One of his partners in crime and he were messin around and the other child got hurt. Bumped his head or something. Went into hysterics, the bus driver had to turn around and go back to school. great. anyway, he got in trouble. I made him write apology notes to the bus driver, the principal, the boy, and his mom.
We just happen to be friends and neighbors.
I threatend him with making him sit with the kindergarteners at the front, that freaked him out. He has to go see the principal all by himself tomorrow. poor little fella, I can just see him having to sit outside the office all by himself.
Well better get use to it buddy. That or we will be visiting him in cell block #3 someday.
I never got a pink slip, but John did, he climed out of a bus window one time. That just does not suprize me.
I wonder how many kids get pink slips (elementary age), AJ is only in the 1st grade, what next?
