this is going to require a lot of clothes!
All I can say is that you guys let your kids watch much more quality TV than I watch!!! I actually had to go and FIND an episode with Planky in it..
Oh... and he's on vacation... he's going to let someone else steal the recipe!!!
I have all our clothes together and can not find the "prince charming" medal for dgs outfit. I had it a couple of weeks ago and put it where I would remember. Do you think I can remember???
3 weeks to day and it will be us.![]()

whew, back from shopping...my mom treated me to some nice new outfits!

That's great - I wonder if Disney makes videos of the drives (probably as another way to make $). I know Ian will love it, but it'll probably be best that I have my sister be elsewhere at that time![]()
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.

Thanks Deborah. This is just the tip of the iceburg. Lots of other stuff going on that I won't post here, but I've had 2 friends tell me they suspect depression. Just trying to cope and will try to talk to doctors soon.
Looking forward to picking Tyler up in a few hours. Hoping he's in better spirits. I didn't mention this because it made me too sad, but last time I was with Tyler, on the way to his dad's house on Wednesday, he had sort of a breakdown. He's been pretty testy for a week or so and I was a bit angry with him for being very disrespectful. He apologized for something he'd said and was silent for a while. Then, he just started crying and while sobbing, he told me he's so tired of always being in trouble with everybody at school and both homes. He says he tries so hard and still is always in trouble and says he just can't take KAP anymore. KAP is the morning program called Kindergarten Activities Program that he goes to before lunch and afternoon kindergarten. He told me he can't handle everybody being mad at him anymore and doesn't know what to do about it.
It was absolutely heartbreaking and I actually ended up crying after I dropped him off. He wasn't crying in a bratty way, he was just sobbing out of frustration. It was horrible to see somebody so young be so sad and down on himself. Heartbreaking. I just reminded him that we're not mad at him but that it does get frustrating for us too just like it does him, and that everybody (family, teachers, doctors) are still trying to work out what would be best to help him. I feel so helpless to see him so sad.
I know every parent has problems with their kids, and I don't mean to make it sound like he's the only kid with issues, but that's just way too much sadness for a 5 year old to carry.Took me forever to type this because it made me cry all over again.

Well, if he doesn't go or doesn't respond well to the OT doc..you need to GET ON IT and get to court and get the permission to treat YOUR child. This wishy washyness is not doing tyler any good. The doctors know what they're talking about and have a positive plan of action. Do what you need to do to get YOUR child the help he DESERVES!
And have a good day with him.
Are you in Seattle? My one of my first cousins lives in Seattle.
If I had known I would have sent you a care package. There are several "Jewish" supermarkets here in Chicago, and now one of the chains, Jewel (up in Evanston for you Chicago savvy people) has a HUGE kosher section. Sukie and (and everyone I know) call it the "Jewish Jewel."
They had a TON of passover stuff. That's where I bought the handmade matzo. I never thought I see handmade matzo in a chain supermarket.
I had to tear myself out of the supermarket. Usually I deal very well with food, but this is one holiday where the emotional/food association are just too strong.
Monday night, the 2nd seder night is also the anniversary (Yahrzeit) of my brother's death in 1972. So passover is very bittersweet for me. Very fond memories coupled with tragic ones.
There I go rambling again.
I think your friends may be right. You should talk with your doctor, there is help.![]()
Ummm Deb...
I have a Hot Stone Massage at 3 pm on the 15th... can you please send my bubbly up to the spa???
Will have to join you after, I guess!!!
