Today was actually a more peaceful day, but I was late getting dinner on the table and the DOG was whining and all of a sudden, the craziness of the past couple of months just caught up with me and everything was irritating. I yelled and then I cried and then I felt better. Ironically, just hours before I had written, "I am at peace." I think the Devil took that as an invitation. <BR/><BR/>I will say for my kids, because they're not used to getting up and out the door every morning, that weeks when we have to do that are tough and meltdowns are inevitable.EEEEMommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08152965556780402197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1648965617421128919.post-51766946365087284562008-06-23T10:45:00.000-05:002008-06-23T10:45:00.000-05:00I make them go outside.

I find that if I stop lecturing long enough and look at our schedule, sometimes it does seem that we have been too busy and have not had enough down time. Sometimes I send everyone to their rooms to read- this is not much of a punishment, but it gives everyone a break from each other. I don't know if you read my comment at Carrie's, but I have taken to sticking my 2 oldest in the attached garage to bicker so that we don't have to listen to it. Usually we talk about team work and self control when the fighting gets bad... and yes, I spazz out with frustration sometimes too. Glad to hear that you all yell too.Halfmoon Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050121358001735700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1648965617421128919.post-57681615955001394192008-06-20T15:55:00.000-05:002008-06-20T15:55:00.000-05:00I'll see how long it sticks, but we had an interes...I'll see how long it sticks, but we had an interesting thing that's working so far... <BR/>I'll blog about it... heheAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1648965617421128919.post-74184678840377888232008-06-20T14:55:00.000-05:002008-06-20T14:55:00.000-05:00Yeah, I'm with ya on the very little down time - h...Yeah, I'm with ya on the very little down time - ha, how 'bout none? :) We've been flying through life, which is fun, but this week has been a tad stressful.

Chaz, out of meanness, just went by Jack while he had his bottle of ritalin open and swooped a Jedi cape over his head, causing him to spill ritalin all over the floor.<BR/><BR/>With the baby walking around and Zoe moaning that she wants to play with her friends next door.<BR/><BR/>So far, today is stupid.carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02449987730223591945noreply@blogger.com
