If you read my #SNRyanGosling post this week, and for the last few weeks, you’ve probably surmised that our school district has been less than stellar. Let’s just suffice it to say that due to the illegal activities and things said to and about me that I wouldn’t be sad at all if people lost… read more »
#SNRyanGosling – Throw Them Under the Bus Edition

What are you waiting for? link up already! Since people want to throw me under the bus lately, and didn’t want to do what was right until official paperwork was filed and the school board was contacted, I’m throwing them under this bus this morning. Why? Because I can, and after the weeks of them… read more »
#SNRyanGosling – A Mix Tape

This week Ryan comes to you talking about allergies, the school (yes STILL. They’ve never solidified my decision to homeschool more), and therapy. OH! And I just thought of one for OT for next week. “Write that down.” Name that movie. Without further ado, the star of our Fridays, and hosted by Sunday,
School Transitions
We have both boys transitioning this year. Have I mentioned that? I probably have. It’s one of the things that’s been preoccupying my mind these days. Since our oldest wasn’t diagnosed until he was 8 1/2, these are firsts all around. We have the older child transitioning to middle school. Having a child in middle… read more »

There’s regression, extra tantrums, not sleeping, high energy, you name it. In our house, the boys get particularly moody. To the point I really wish Midol… read more »
USDA Still Discriminates Against Kids with Lactose Intolerance

Finally, this school year, 2011-12, the USDA has determined that schools must provide drinkable water to all students with unrestricted access during their lunch periods. This can be in the form of a mass dispense system in the cafeteria, or a drinking fountain in or adjacent to the eating area. I don’t call this a… read more »
Soldiers Deal with Toxic Leaders, Spouses Deal with Toxic Spouses
Yes, it’s true that there’s been a lot written lately about the toxic leadership in the Army. I can tell you, we’ve seen it. Some of these colonels that come through the Army War College have real Napoleon complexes. I’d never want to be under their command. It just makes my husband and I more… read more »
Candyland Hell
Ridiculous School Lunch Policies
Our school did something good this year. They made their bazillion forms we get on the first day all electronic. It was easy to fill out, and I could easy print any addendums I needed. Then they pulled a boner. My son is lactose intolerant. The dietary forms state “The School/school district does not make… read more »
