Today, I was especially eager to kick-off the weekend. It seems like this week's emphasis has been to help me identify all of my areas of weakness, especially as it involves the kiddos. I have been boombarded this week with advise, opinions, comments and criticism, in addition to lots of thinkng, evaluating and worrying.
I had my first Parent-Teacher Meeting today with ME's teacher. At lunch, I told a friend, "This is nothing. Gideon is the one I am worried about!" After 2 hours of discussing every detail of ME's life from birth to the present and how I need to be more consistent, firm, but loving and develop a routine, I somewhere stopped listening and began dreaming of being at home in my PJs vegging in front of the TV!
The minute the teacher's stopped for a breath, I thanked them for all the wisdom and insight and ran out the door! I took public transportation home from the school, which is a fun treat, since, I rarely have to do it. I joined the rest of the crowd and slouched down in the seat, put my headphones on, closed my eyes and dreamed of sleeping...but only after watching this lady with a totally huge snout, pull out her compact and begin a major undercover investigation of what might be hidding out in her nostril! I know it is terrible, but sometimes you just have to laugh!!!
