Holly, do you think he has some problems because he has to go back and forth between you and dad? I only mention this because of the break down you mentioned earlier while you were on the way to dad's house. I know he has to go back and forth but maybe you could limit it a little until he can get the meds he needs or he gets a little older. My kids are 5 and 8 and I couldn't imagine them being alright with me being gone that much.
I don't think he does because he doesn't know any different. I can only speak from experience because I did the exact same thing when I was a kid. I went to my dad's the same 3 days a week that Tyler does and never thought twice about it because I didn't know any other way. I don't like that he does that, but it's what his dad bullied me into agreeing with long ago, and now it wouldn't be fair to change what Tyler's used to. He misses his dad by the 2nd day with me, and I'd imagine it's the same when he's over there. And it's really on Thurs and Fri that I don't see him because I'm with him before and after school on Wed, and pick him up Saturday afternoon. And I'm often up at school on a Thurs or Fri taking a longer lunch from work to either help in class or to have lunch with Tyler or for some other crazy reason. :thumbsup2
 

In fact, he usually asks me Monday after school, "Do I get to go back to my dad's today?" :guilty:
 
OK, I'm done hogging the thread with my drama. Sorry everybody! Now......back to your regularly scheduled cruise planning! :thumbsup2

Back at ya friend!!! Hey can you save me some of those chocolate covered Matzos????
 
those who haven't printed out their information and done their online check in have docutments in their cruise booklet to fill out, I suppose they could be considered tickets.

Also, If you have purchased Disney transportation, there are vouchers in the cruise booklet for that.

Connie

that reminds me I have to cancel some transpostation info....better do that today!!!!

MARR- what do I owe for the LA stuff...a girl needs to plan!!!!
 
Don't forget Mother's Day is on Sunday, May 11th - the day after we sail. So if you need to mail any cards or order flowers, etc. make sure you put that on your to-do list so you do not forget while we are all busy doing cruise stuff.

:)

or to remind your DH and DKs to shop in advance for you :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
 
Thanks Monica. OK, well here's my whine for the day. Just still been really down lately, with the exception of a few good days now and then. The condition of the inside of my house makes things worse. I used to be a neat freak and everything had to be spotless. Not sure what happened, maybe I got lazy, I don't know. Been trying desperately to motivate myself to clean. Have been trying to do so every weekend for a while. One weekend I did get on a cleaning kick, but that didn't last. It's definitely a mood killer to come home to clutter. Not an uplifting place to hang out in. I want to come home from work and be able to relax, not have my spirits drop the second I walk into the house. But then I'm here and the clutter brings me down, then I can't make myself motivated to do anything about it. I hate how down it makes me feel day after day. Makes me feel like sitting around and eating nonstop (comfort food) but then I keep getting bigger and bigger, which further brings me down. Don't know how to break the cycle.

I think the first step is to get a bunch of boxes and just throw EVERYTHING lying around into the boxes to be thrown out. I tried to donate stuff, but just never get around to loading up my car to take stuff somewhere. I figure if it was stuff I needed, I'd be using it, so it needs to be gotten rid of. But then I need to figure out what to do with the boxes because I think we have to pay to drop stuff at the dump. It's just too much for one person so I don't know where to begin. :scared:

Sorry to be such a downer, it's just that I can't stand the thought of getting off a wonderful vacation and walking into this house of clutter. :headache: How did it get this way? Not having a basement or extra bedroom for storage.

Hmmm......Tyler's a great helper and hates messes, so he'd be happy to help. And his OT says heavy labor (loading and moving big boxes of stuff) is really good for him. I guess we can start this when he comes home tonight.

Sorry to be negative......just very overwhelmed.

I understand, I hate clutter too, but I'm not good at keeping it under control either.

I always save Molly's good clothes thinking I can ebay them. Mostly the American Girl stuff, but I never have done it. We cleared the last of it out of her closet this last week and it's sitting in a big tub in the house in the WAY of my life.

I need to hire an ebay posting for me. One that will come to my house photograph and list everything and sell it and package it and give me .10 on the $1. seriously I'd take 1/2 if someone did this kind of business...maybe that is worth an idea, a rowing ebay helper seller...:rolleyes1

ok here are my suggestions....


Do you have a Goodwill, Salvation Army or Hope in your town? Some of these places will pick up if you call them. Look in the yellow pages. Get it planned, once you have a drop off or pick up date on the calendar that helps get motovated.

The eating thing, suck. Can't help ya, can't control myself either. I keep telling myself I'll do it when....some date in the future, but when that date comes I make an excuse and new date. I have another doctors appointment in June and she is going to kill me. Nothing done and might be worse after the cruise (although I do exercise like a fiend on vacation and have been known to lose weight) No solution on that end. I'm still thinking of sending myself to a fat farm, just scared to do it alone.

:hug:
