back to life and back to reality

Why do all my titles make me hear a song... writing today's I heard that 80's song.....

Back from Jamaica- started counselling for help with stuff at home. my girl had a class mate threaten to stab her with a 5.5 inch knife and my son is still struggling with school and found a way to get his ass suspended. He jumped in and sprayed silly spray on his teacher. Not too damn smart. As for the stupid little girl that is threatening my girl I pressed charges and she will see who pushes whom around!

Days are flying by my summer seems to be flying out in front of me with soccer for the girl taking the lead and gobbling up all my time. Easter for example had training every single day.

My kid loves sports but now whining has started that it takes up all her time. I fear the busy style of coaching is killing interest.

My older dog is throwing up often, I hope he stays healthy for another long while. I will miss his devoted eyes and wagging tail if I loose him.

Our kitten is being trained to walk on a halter as she runs so fast in the yard that if she goes too far she might not be back! Older cat seems happy right where he is on the deck with an occasional wander around the house but comes straight back when called.

I am disappointed in the new gazebo bought last year, put it up again and already there are several rips!

I have a really great neighbour and he's been helping with jobs! I have to start a list cause I am so excited to be getting some stuff done! I moved the wood for the winter fires to the outside shelves and swept out the garage. It's so roomy now! I still need to clean out the shelves but a start is a start! I also cleaned out the plastic shed - well it's waist high and has swing out doors. No more old pots and junk in there! We got the pots out of the bush and even cut some of the trees that fell or were cut by my brother and never cut to burn lengths. The Forrest is looking better and better! less trees laying about, no more broken pots and I cleared a lot of dead leaves out of the gardens and even got the front yard raked before the rain this past few days.....rain that will last until next week! OH! Maybe I can clean out that garage shelf set then.....

I cleaned a drawer in my room and dumped a bunch of goodwill in a bag- just need to drop that off now! I would love to clean my closet too....might do that on the rainy weekend...
