About a week and a half ago Chris' license was suspended for 90 days. He will not be able to reinstate it until January 24th. Way too many speeding tickets. He got most of them driving from one inspection to another in record time:) Now he has the office manager take him to his inspections. I am seriously thinking about buying him a radar detector for Christmas either that or one of those chips that stalls the care if you exceed 80 mph.
So... not only do I have to drive my son to school which Chris used to do but now I have to take him to work and then take Katie to school. Which means we leave the house around 6:30a.m. Now I am used to it already and I actually get to work a half and hour early so I can take a full lunch hour to be able to go home and let my dogs out. Now Chris is talking about making the change permanent. *sigh* Why? because he has 23 points on his license right now and one more point and the license is gone for a full year. Men.

It's going to be one of those weekends...
And I am so not looking forward to it. After work today I have to start on the laundry and do as much as I can because the Verizon people will be here early tomorrow morning to put in the new fiber optic line for our phone, cable and internet. Not sure how long it takes but my guess is I will not be online until the evening. I have so much more to put up on Regal Boutique It's ridiculous! But I am determined to complete the site as fast as I possibly can.
Sunday we have to bug proof the house again for ticks. I hate those damn things... they are so hard to get rid of. They don't go after the dogs because we have them treated once a month, but they go after me and Katie big time! So we will take the dogs to the dog park for a few hours after Chris is done spraying the entire house! Come to find out that before we moved in the previous owners had an infestation problem and they never did anything about it. Stupid jerk offs! I wasn't sure what was eating me and Katie alive until I found one on her. Like I said the dogs weren't scratching because they are protected. Nasty parasites. EWWWWW!!!!!!
Britt starts her job training this Sunday 7:30-2pm and then she goes back on Thursday from 3pm - 9:30. She will work 30 hours a week until she turns 18 and then she goes full time. She only goes to her GED Class for 12 hours a week until she takes her GED test in September. We have researched her "career" choice via the wonderful web and found that there is no school anywhere in Florida where she can get the training she wants/needs. She is wanting to be a FX Artist for movies. The only option we have found so far is online courses. She will have to basically start out learning the ropes on her own and develop her own technique and keep a portfolio of all her work. I have suggested to her to start her own blog on her work alone and see what opportunities come her way. She has an eye for it, she just lacks the "artistic knowledge". I am wondering if there are any community colleges around that offer art classes? That is something else I have to research. hmmm....
Jeff is still having no luck securing a better job. He is finally going to the local grocery store where he knows he will get more hours and better pay. If he wants to be driving his own car his senior year he NEEDS a better paying job!
His boss now has him babysitting her son (ADD plus ADHD in other words a holy terror) until she can find someone else because her son was kicked out of the after school care his elementary school provides. The boy listens to Jeff because my son will not tolerate snotty kids:)
Ok... gotta go. Lots to do.

Pick on someone your own size...
that's what I would like to say to a certain counselor at my daughters camp. Katie has never been a " behavioral problem" in school or anywhere else. So why is it that I have had three disciplinary notes that I have had to sign regarding certain things that Katie supposedly did.
Monday - she gets written up for stealing some girls lunch and hiding it through out the gymnasium. Come to find out that there were several girls involved and another counselor told me that Katie did what another girl told her to do. My daughter sadly to say is a follower. Don't like it but I know it. Her dad and I try to enforce that it is not always ok to do things just because other kids are doing it. I know in time it will sink in but she is 7.
Tuesday - She gets written up for going into a construction zone at the middle school where they hold camp and then apparently hits another camper with a ball. When her dad talked to Katie we learned that she was chasing the ball another kid threw in the construction zone and when she threw it back it hit someone. I call that an accident not intentional. The counselor told me that she yelled at Katie to not go in that area. Uhm.. I have a problem with that.. y'see Katie has issues with her hearing which is clearly stated in her sign up form for the camp it also stated that she has tubes in hers. I told the counselor that YELLING at Katie is not going to insure that she will HEAR you. So that write up to me should be invalid.
Wednesday - another write up accusing Katie of drooling and spitting at other kids on the bus. This definitely disturbed me because that is not Katie. When we talked to her about this we learn that her and another girl were having a contest to see who could "zurbert" or put you lips together and make them vibrate the longest. So Katie being who she is and loves winning at contest did it so hard and long that yes she did drool and some spittle came out of her mouth. Was it done to intentionally spit on others? NO. So then I get this notice that Katie has been put on STRIKE status. Where you have three strikes and you are out. She is at strike one.
Now I have read the Strike Three policy which clearly states that children will be put on notice if they intentionally do harm to others or themselves.. Am I missing something because I do not see in any of the write ups where she intentionally did these things. I am going to have to talk with this supervisor. I understand that there are at least 30 kids in one group and there may be 3 supervisors to one group. My thinking is that they did not witness these events and therefore did not have the facts before assuming what happened and we all know what happens when you ASSuME.

To Bitch or not to Bitch... Or just plain be one....
Well for me it's 36 years. haha... Chris and I have always had this argument about how Chris thinks that all women are bitches and I used to get so angry with him for thinking that because I didn't consider myself a bitch.
Well... now I admit that I can be and y'know what? It's my right to be a bitch.
9 out of 10 times when I am bitchy, shit gets done around here because no body likes me in a foul mood. I have learned to be "bitchy" more often:)
I used to call Chris an asshole but I have stopped because I got tired of him saying " Damn right I am an asshole.. I will be the first one to tell you that I am an asshole" It's almost like he has let the air out of my tires.. stupid reverse psychology shit. I absolutely hate it when he pulls that stuff.
