Sent my scathing letter to the teacher

of YSS16, who put him on detention for being rude and defiant.  Also for not doing classwork and blowing off homework and attendance.  Somehow she was missed out of the original grouping; her name was not on the special education review meeting that originally went out.

Not that it will go anywhere but Girhippo's

ass needs to be bared as Rags would say

O/T Sugar Cravings

Arrrgh!  Trying not to sabotage myself but under a lot of stress lately trying to figure out the bizarro world legacy apps and scripts with little to no documentation left by retired guy.  He left some major projects undone and several mystery messes to unravel along with my regular workload.

I've been craving of all things fluffernutter sandwiches!!  My nutritionist would kill me!  

Since When Has It Become Unfashionable

to hold your small child's hand while walking  through a busy parking lot?  Again, I watch in horror as I see a very active young boy, no more than 5 or 6 years old flying through the the busy parking lot of my gym in advance of his mother (which people use as a cut through to Taco Bell ironically enough).   I see this all.the.time with the under 35 year old mother/father set.  I'm surprised there aren't more injuries/fatalities in parking lots!!!

WTF??!!! 

Awesome Website on Divorce

Here are some excerpts

Very accurate portrayal:

 

"...support enforcement procedures have proved very effective against delinquent parents, but at the expense of due process. A man's right to be heard [following the loss of a job, for example] has been sacrificed to the desire to impose punishment."

YSS Turned 16 Today

and got his drivers permit.  Now I'm afraid to drive!!  Will be like a giant 11 yr old behind the wheel.  Skids are all stunted mentally and emotionally having never heard the word "NO."

 Only five more years of CS to go!   Funny, Chef used to UNDERstate skids ages; viewing them as BABIES.  Chef said to me "YSS is 17 today...only 4 more yrs of CS."  I corrected him....he's only 16 and five more years on the CS gristmill.

So Now we Know Where all the CS Money is Going to!

The Girhippo bought a  food truck for her Soup in Cauldrons business last autumn.  So that $800 a month is being put to good use (NOT).  Meanwhile it looks as though SD20 has quit her p/t pizza job--no college, nothing.  YSS (will be 16 tomorrow) is still the budding school shooter and felon.  Nice.

We are definitely going back to court the end of January when Chef gets 1099ed.  Should be more like $200 a month given Chef's income now. 

New Years Resolutions

Anyone?  I'm continuing with the "Year of Me" theme for 2019.  Just joined a gym that is fairly close to my work;  Since my boss has made it clear that I am not getting paid extra to take over the retiree's job and that I'm expected to retain all of my old duties, I will be taking whatever time off necessary to get to the gym. 

Chef, on the other hand, is content to grow old and fat!   He's been very bitchy lately as he came down with a cold/flu.  Normally he is more tolerable when sick (much quieter, less ADHD) but because he has his own business he's become a bitch on wheels!
