punishments

so C is being punished today no computer, television, dvd player or nintendo ds. Why is it that I feel like I am being the one punished? it is 9.42 and he is driving me crazy! And it is sort of goofy punishing him but he needs to know how to act and not act in school. he had a "off" week behaviorally at school. He still got a B but I had the note to go along with it-all typical 7 year old boy stuff but I still had to play the stern parent-poking someone with a pencil, head under the desk, something about laying on the floor at one point but my favorite was getting his friend to spell ICUP. spell it out loud and wait for it....

dear santa

I think might need a remote starter for my car for these damn cold mornings when I want to warm up my car but it is so very early I am trying to get out of the house without waking everyone up.
I also need more hours in the week. I am looking into what to take next semester and I am thinking microbiology and saving the math for summer. The only problem is I will need to find 4 more hours in my week because it will entail 3 hours class time & a 4 hour lab. Won't that be fun?

is there a support group?

I think I may be a Target-aholic.

my list for santa


I really need a scanner to try and organize the multitude of baby photos I have floating around my house. I was great when the boy was first born taking pics, getting them developed and putting them right into a photo album. Around 6 months that sort of fell apart and now I have boxes of loose photos that could do with some serious organization. Of course we also need a new computer, if I can't even get the antiquated thing to recognize my camera a scanner is out of the question.

fall back

daylight savings time ended in the wee hours of this morning. I let C stay up a little late as he would be gaining an hour, unfortunately he was still up way too early but I tried. When my brother and I were kids my mother used both the spring change & the fall change to "get rid" of us a hour early. It didn't matter which time of year it was always "oh you have to go to bed early because of the time change". Sadly we never caught on...
