Whatever Comes To My Mind


Thank you so very much. I appreciate the support! Hope to see you around in May.

Bartering For Good Behavior?

I just got done meeting with one of my therapists, for lack of a better word. I'm not exactly sure what I should call her, besides heaven sent. We spent a good part of the hour discussing my 10 year old's behavior. It is not pretty.

What I'm doing currently is not working. Obviously. So she suggested bartering for good behavior.

It would go something like this: He gets grounded for hitting his brother, but is then able to do chores (or whatever else we can think of) to get ungrounded earlier.

At first I was resistant to the idea. Very resistant. To me, that sounds like I'm making it okay to do the crime, because he can always be pardoned earlier. Towards the very end of the hour, I'm thinking, welllll it can't hurt to try it, really, can it?

On the way home it kind of hit me though. I mean, what the fuck? I have to actually barter with my 10 year old for good behavior? (Angela, if you are reading this, please don't be upset. I am not aiming any anger towards you. I appreciate all you do for us!). I mean, how bad have things really become, that I have to bribe...uhh....I mean barter with my son for him to not hit his brother, or to not throw a fit, or to do his homework, or to clean his room?


Please!! What do you do to help your kid with ADHD, and most likely ODD? I would love some tips here. Some constructive tips, please. I really don't need meaness. I need suggestions.

100 Posts

So, my last post just happened to be post number 100. And, of course, I brought it in unceremoniously talking about donuts. Really?

I Couldn't

go for a walk tonight due to wind and rain, so instead I ate some donuts.

Talking About Tattoos

with my 4 year old daughter.

Her: Mom, what's this?

Me: It's a tattoo.

Her: Is it paint?

Me: Nope, it's ink.

Her: Ink?

Me: Yes, and it will never come off.

Her: Wow!

Me: Wow?

Her: Wow! Didn't see that one coming!

Craving More

Cool Ranch Doritos, but only because it's after midnight and I have to fast for labs. Suck ass.

I Had The

right away and I still stopped for your unyielding ass. How am I the bitch, bitch?

Wondering

why I thought it would be a good idea to buy Cool Ranch Doritos and make brownies on the same day.

You Totally Made Me Feel

loved, because when you were staring at me with those big, brown puppy dog eyes, I told you to go lay down. Instead you knew that I really needed to be kept warm and jumped on top of me and laid your massive 85 furry pounds directly on top of me and wouldn't budge. Good girl, Goldie.

Feeling Guilty

for eating that entire Chipotle Burrito without taking a breath or even wiping the drips that made it down to my elbows. And the side of tortilla chips.

Music Monday

This song pretty much sums up my life right now. I'm on the verge of some life altering changes. I can't wait!! (But I'm a little scared too).

Worried

about the faintly kind of poopy smell I'm smelling. I honestly do not want to find out what it is.

Sad Because

I had to ask you if you loved me. And although you didn't say no, you didn't say "yes."

Embarrassed

for shouting, "son of a whore!" while in the office at the school my kids go to.

Pondering

Does it make my 10 year old feel good to be carried into school by his dad and the liason officer? Again.

Music Monday

Australians singing about touching themselves. It doesn't get any better than that.

Observation

If your 10 year old drops a bottle of fingernail polish in the fridge and it breaks (and you don't clean it all the way up), your ice will then totally taste like fingernail polish. But that's way better than garlic ice.

Enjoying

Hershey's Kisses and Nestle Crunch Eggs.

How To Provoke Me

Take out my working car window switches, clean them, then put them back non-functioning.

How To Provoke Me

Not only put onions on the burger I so nicely asked you not too, but cut the fuckers so small I can't actually pick them off.

Pondering

Has drinking Diet Coke for the last 10 years made me stupider? I'm not sure if I even spelt that right.

Pondering

Do we really need a movie about guinea pig espionage?

I don't think we do.

Me

I wash each and every dish twice. Totally insane.

How To Provoke Me

Shut my mailbox. I leave it open for a reason jacktard.

Him

He says he thought he told me. He didn't.


He got into a minor accident yesterday. I found out when the insurance rep left a message at our home.

He got a ticket. He got a fine of over a hundred bucks.

He got points on his license.

He fucked our insurance rate with one fail swoop.

I am pissed.

Vibrating Touch???

If you're ever up after 10 p.m. you've seen this commercial.


I completely loathe this commercial. I'm not sure if it's the chicken heads sitting there laughing every time they say something, or what. But really. I hate it.

At least it comes in this awesome little bag. Right.
