Not-So-Normal Mom

My little man started daycare last week. It really is heart-wrenching for me! At first, he really wanted to go, and he wanted me to leave him there. However, now he cries because he doesn't want to go. We wake up very early, and God knows he is not an early morning kind of guy! So, he starts off the day in a foul mood. By the time we get there, he has told me about 45 times that he doesn't want to go. He also says really heart breaking things like "why do you want to leave me momma?" and "Will you miss me all day?" Geez, talk about a guilt trip. Believe me, I would MUCH rather be with him!! He is the first of my children to go to daycare, and I'm really torn up about it. I don't like it at all. The facility is fantastic, and the teachers are wonderful, but I would just rather be with him, you know??? So how long will this protest last??? Will there come a time where he just goes to daycare without all of the fuss? Oh my, this is going to be interesting.
Peace Out,
Mom

I got my new D.ell computer in the mail today. No, I did not go the M.ac route. I found what I needed in this inexpensive laptop and I am very pleased. I don't need it for anything fancy; I just need it for school and work. I finally figured out how to get it hooked up to our wireless Internet. My husband thought he was being safe when he set up our wireless Internet service at home with a password he could never, ever remember. Cute. It took me forever to figure out how to access our stuff!!! Getting older does some interesting things to your memory. Anyway, even though I have many jobs, a few classes, and some ornery boys, I'm hoping this will help me out some. Tomorrow, I will post about my little man's first day of day care. I almost threw up...really.
Peace Out,
Mom

A new semester is starting next week.
I applied for a new job and I am impatiently awaiting news.
I was offered a fourth job, and I am going to take it.
Little man starts all-day daycare next week and I am very nervous.
I am going to Legoland tomorrow with little man and a friend.
Peace Out,
Mom

We went camping last weekend at Cuyamaca. It was great fun; we even brought the dog. She was pretty awesomely dirty! My husband threw her in the lake a couple of times to try to get some of the dirt off of her, but I don't think it helped much! We had a great time with the kids. Everyone really had a good time spending quality time together. We played cards and cooked things on the open fire. We went for a couple of walks and paddle-boated on the lake. Mostly, we talked and relaxed. It was nice to be away from things for a while and chill. My camera is broken, which really super sucks, so I don't have any pictures. Sadness.

Peace Out,

Mom
