Continued prayers for Rees and the entire family. Hope he can get in to see the specialist soon!!! Goodluck with his ENT proceedure!Thanks for all the prayers for Rees.

So sorry about the Black Pearl. Don't know how someone can do that.I am having a crummy day. I took Princess to Dollar Tree to get her out of the house - they have a TON of Winnie the Pooh stuff! But I digress...
SOMEBODY put an enormous ding on the Black Pearl. It is on the passenger front quarterpanel - it is down to the metal and the metal is actually dented in.I didn't notice it until we were home, and I don't know for sure that's where it happened.
Also got a call from DS. On the online grades last night I saw that he had a 33 in math for one paper. They are supposed to be allowed to re-do any paper and get a 70. Never any grades lower than 70 is what we were told at Open House. Well, he has a 33, a 56ish, and now today he was told he gets a ZERO for something but he doesn't know what it is! OK, I get that he has ADD but this "I don't know" is driving me over the edge. I was thinking of NOT going to the school tonight but now I am going to be forced to go find out what the HE,um,CK is going on. If the teacher KNOWS he has trouble WHY can't he pitch in just a little bit? I was dead set against Honors math to start with, and this is NOT changing my mind!![]()
DS also doesn't know anything about his band grade and doesn't know anything about an assignment in Social Studies that was showing as incomplete or another that was showing that needed to be made up by tomorrow. I don't think I have the strength to get through 6th grade.

Good luck with school tonight!!!
WOW! That must make it seem real!I have checked in & printed my boarding pass![]()
Goodluck with work. Hope you can get enough done to relax on your trip!I have about 20 hours of work to do before we leave at 5pm tomorrow night. I'm not sure it is going to get done. What do you think? I needed a break so I stopped in here to catch up. I still am not packed and I haven't ironed on our shirts. It shouldn't take me more than an hour to pack because I have a packing list that I created 4 years ago and I keep up-to-date after each trip. It is printed and on the counter. I've been adding things slowly since Sunday.
Hope you get to slow down sometime soon!Sorry I have been up to my ears lately.
Still pretty much 10 & 12 hour days.
Leave the house at 7:30 A.M get home around 8 or 9.
Would someone please P.M me this weekends plans.
I will try to pop-in for a get together either Sat or Sun.
Weather is to be dry in the low 80's.
