after a hellish evening/weekend with devon not wanting to go to sleep until well after 10pm... and me then not falling asleep until well after 1am... then sleeping in until 7am and driving the kids into school... finding out devons had THREE different ea's in the past week.. ( um he cant handle transitions? wonder why hes been acting out and doesnt want to go to school? duh?) I am actually in a pretty good mood...
I got on the scale and I am down another pound... :) its nice and quiet here.. russell took out the garbage for me :) - of course he didnt empty the dishwasher however lol.. but i am sitting enjoying my cafe mocha and going to go sit on the front porch in awhile and veg with a book soon. yes i know i should be doing something in the house... mopping and tidying... oh and i have to do my sheets and comforter but that can wait... i am going to enjoy the peace and quiet that comes with mondays...I am taking a mental health morning as i usually do monday mornings.. i deserve every minute of it too :)
I wish i had someone to enjoy my mondays with... i do love my mornings of solitude and reflextion but by noon i am lonely. seems the only time anyone has for me as at night and of course thats when i am busiest usually, doing the whole getting devon settled thing. mondays and tuesdays would be ideal to be able to sit and have a coffee and shoot the shit... but noone seems to be around.wednesdays - fridays are my family and running around days... and weekends i am also home if you can stomach my kids lol
its funny too.,. that some people after years of knowing me still ask me when is a good time for me.. 0r when is dean home? um do you not know me/us at all? my schedule has not varied for about 13 years lol. deans been driving to Miami for 13 years. scary. to me it doesnt seem that long ago that he was going out to BC with the moving company and we were living in that little apartment on lake street with russell.. hard to believe that was 13 years ago now. time flies. Russell will be 14 in 2 days.. yet i remember like it was yesterday the day he was born.. i suppose every mother can say that about every child no matter how old they get. the years dont matter. 14 years seems insignificant in the grand sceme of the things. we have come such a long way in 14 years from that tiny little apartment... from my divorce.. 3 houses later.. we have raised two children .. so much crud.. so many struggles and yet we have prevailed... here we are.. we have survived in tact. i would give anything to have my husband home every night... well almost anything.. i dont think i could go back to that tiny little apartment... not knowing if we can make rent.. or groceries.. it was awful. we have made choices and taken priorities.. this is the reason he IS on the road and not in our bed every night. I think this is why I get so angry at people that cant appreciate the things they have.. the time they share with their spouses.. I only see mine 1/2 of a year.. my kids have their dad 1/2 of their lives... we try and cram as much as we can into that time but man its been tough. I wish i could just have the abililty to go to bed with my husband every night... now that would be nice. to be able to see him for even a short period every day would be nice..i realise with two people working spouses dont get alot of time together but at least they get to SEE each other every day... even for an hour.. or 2 or sleep in the same bed.. they are in the same house together at some point every day.. i get to see dean late tuesday afternoon- and hes extremely tired... hes in bed by 9 usually.. wed, thursday- and of course we run to appts and run errands.. and hes on the road again friday morning. this is my marriage. in the mean time, while hes on the road.. i am a single mother of 2 special needs kids..
ok this is depressing me... enough talk about that lol. if only i could win that lottery... ;)
I havent picked up my mail in 2 1/2 weeks.. yikes.. i can imagine it over flowing from my box... someone remind me to go do that in the next couple of days.. :p
I need to call dr shapirs office about that mri at sick kids.. i also need to call about a hair cut.. who knows when i am supposed to go for that... i look awful.
I am tired enough to take a nap.. however when i do this on a monday i feel like i have totally wasted my ME time.. i wake up usually in a pissy mood too- because usually my mother, dean or someone else has continously called while i have tried to lay down too... I always have the phone in my room just in case its a dr calling for an appt or the school.. and when i wake up i havent accomplished anything.. and then before i know it i have to go get the kids from the bus and my stress begins all over again...so unless i actually lay down right away after i drop the kids off first thing in the morning its not worth it.
I think i am going to go read the news then go throw my wash in and then head out outside on the veranda... wish i had some company...

another week is over
it's been another long week. I threw my back out rearranging our bedroom furniture.. I have had worse.. its at that point where if i move a certain way its a stabbing shooting pain in my lower left- and it kills me to lay or move in bed but I can find an ok position if i am sitting or standing and dont move. i am going to have to go to the massage therapist if it doesnt get better in a couple days. I also still have a cold. I looked on my blogs- 2 blogs ago to be precise when i actually GOT the cold and thought i was getting over it.. that was around the 1st of April.. and here it is the 26th and i am still coughing up a lung. I thought this time it wasnt going to be bad... stupid me. ( as I light another smoke)
we got a new dryer- YAY lol. its huge.. twice the size of the washer and twice as fast. i hate the fact I have to WAIT for the wash so bloody long now..it also has a sensor in it too so that it actually only runs as long as there are wet clothes in it.. so it senses the wetness.. even if u set it for say 45 minutes the clothes may only TAKE 20.. so it will shut off.. or vise versa.. so no more running down to check and restart the dryer for me now lol. Dean also got himself an armoire in the "as is" section.. it has a couple scratches at the very bottom of it ( which touched up with brown marker noone will even notice ;) and inside it on the bottom under the drawers a piece of the wood under the railing is bashed a little but completely functionable and its the inside anyway so who even sees it?? we got it for 199 from 799!!! woo hoo! I just love a deal :) we also got the dryer for 200 off too (it was in their flyer) :P
I need a hair cut so badly. I should have made an appt for tomorrow or tuesday- i think those are our only free days for awhile. I am begininning to look like my uncle tommy circa 1980. it ain't pretty. I was looking forward to a couple of appt free weeks but then people kept calling to make appts for devon and russell and soon my book started to fill up again.. even JUNE too.. I am expecting even more too as genetics finally books theirs in once they get back to Dr Shapir over the test results. Speaking of results- we have some of them back- part of the metabolic amino acid blood levels.. for devon 10 out of the 13 of his were high. NOT normal and NOT good. Having ONE high isnt good and he has 10. However i dont know all the specifics - only a geneticist can explain this to us..right now i just have the names and numbers/levels.They havent finished anything else yet- the dna etc. We go up to Toronto on may 13th.. morning is at Toronto western hosp. and the afternoon at sick kids for mri's for both kids.. ( hopefully both kids- they only had russell in their system.. dr shapir is using her pull and trying to get devon booked the same day so we dont have to go back up just for him-) and hopefully russell wont be in Ottawa either... his school still hasnt given me final dates for his school trip... talk about unorganised omg. I still havent paid the final installment yet either.. that was supposed to be due in MARCH but they didnt know how MUCH yet.. so they put it off and will inform us.. well here it is end of APRIL and the trip is next month... and we dont even know when they are GOING!! I HATE dealing with people like this... I am much to organised not to mention i book appts for these kids months in advance!!! I cant stand it when people cant do their jobs competantly.
On a postive note. I can fit into my shorts from last year- or at least the 2 pairs I have worn this weekend so far. my shirts, well um they are a bit like sausage casing on me this year :p i am definately not just an xlarge from a regular store at the moment... sigh. really dont have the heart to go purchase a bunch of shirts from my mothers store in a plus size.. the thought just depresses the shit out of me but what the hell am I supposed to do... the warm weather is already friggen here and in these shirts i have a case of muffin top haha. If only I was 10 lbs thinner.. I am so good for days and days and then usually one or sometimes 2 then i end up eating at night- nothing huge but having 2 snacks at night- like a bowl of cereal plus a handful of chips or something and i blow my diet all to hell.. and then the guilt comes. like gees su.. you were so fucking good all week why the fuck did you Eat THAT last night? you were good all day yesterday- counted every fucking calorie you ATE and then you HAD to have that bowl of corn pops AND CHIPS when you were reading last night eh? it wouldnt be so bad either if i could go to bed when i actually wanted too.. but i have to the whole devon dance at night.. and lay there with him while he watches tree house and snacks and i read.. i dont even eat while hes snacking but its after hes finally asleep and i have me TIME alone.. after my bath.. i am usually so tired i could fall asleep on my feet then DEAN calls and expects me to chat with him for an hour.. and i go help myself to a snack at midnight... stupid me- when all i want to do is sleep. and this is why its taken me 2 months to lose 9 lbs. I could have been down almost 20 now if i cut that out!
I am exhausted. I got up at 6am. ( its 747 now) It's saturday and devon was actually still sleeping... my back was killing me and my feet were both asleep- and not a light tingling feeling asleep but a terrible shooting pains pins and needles kind that only is helped by getting up and having blood flow to them. I could very easily go back to bed- but that would only result in my hacking my brains out, my back throbbing and devon doing God knows what without my supervision. yesterday when i was on the computer he set up a lemonade stand in the front of our house on a box with his bath towel draped over it, the pitcher of juice from our fridge and a stack of old glasses from our cupboard.. he was going to sell a glass for 10 dollars lol...have to admire his entrepreneurship however he made one heck of a mess from the kitchen to the lawn in 15 minutes and he had a melt down.. i said you should have asked mummy if when u want to do something like this.. not to mention there was NOONE on our street out at all yesterday.. i said if you want to have a LEMONADE stand you should really sell LEMONADE.. GOOD lemonade too.. not unknown juice thats been in our fridge for 4 days lol out of old glasses that never come clean on a bath towel on a box and perhaps lower your price from 10 dollars to 25 cents?? ;) I let him sit out there anyway for 15minutes while i cleaned up.. its not like he was hurting anyone lol i even BOUGHT a cup... lol
anyway- now to just get through the rest of the weekend and on the bus tomorrow morning... then perhaps I can have a nap...

my morning
It's been one of those mornings. Devon wakes up late... Devon refuses to get dressed... Devon keeps telling me to shut up, fuck off, calling me bitch.. no matter how nicely I ask him to get dressed and come eat his breakfast and redirect him the more he sticks his fingers in his ears and shouts at me. (Its not like he totally is sticking his fingers in his ears because he doesnt want to hear me/avoidance issues... its like my voice is actually hurting him to hear me.. " shut up shut up shut up!!!")
After 20 minutes of this I change tactics.. Do you want me to call daddy and let him hear what youre doing? do you even want to go to the movies tomorrow because i dont need to throw you a party... this lego can go away for a few days too.. He gets worse.. he runs from room to room shouting.. throwing things at me..I keep looking at the clock tick towards 730 ( we leave for the bus by 745)... If I had had time I would have completely ignored him... obviously I didn't.
We end up on my bed.. he's under my covers refusing to come out. I try the old you need a hug routine and get socked in the face. I physically put his arms around me, prying them from his body which he is hugging and hold on to him tight, cooing nonsense silly words.. telling him he has to go to school because mummy has a dental appt and daddys coming home this morning... and if mummy doesnt have her front tooth then we cant go to walmart in the near future and I know how you have gift cards... i am rambling in june cleaver tones.. i manage to usher him into the hall.. i grab his clothes.. i come back hes on the computer... sigh... hes telling me he hates school.. i tell him he only has 4 days this week then its easter..my smile is starting to hurt my face.
i get him downstairs. Russell says dont throw him a party.. it would serve him right... I shoot him a look and tell him to be quiet.. hes calming down I dont need his 2 cents. Devon comes down and grabs his english muffin and stuffs 1/2 of it in his mouth and tries to talk..hes still aggitated but seems to be able to be distracted now... phew.. its now 740... he swallows.. i give him his pill.. he pulls away.. i grab him and put it in his mouth... hand him his milk... hes rambling about some lego Y fighter now from lego.. and repeating " do you want a pickle" over and over..
I get his boots out side by side.. hes talking non stop.. a piece of muffin in each hand trying to get his boots on sideways on the wrong foot.. i try to take the muffin out of his hands and he gets aggitated.. so i help him slip his foot in... i get his coat.. put his hat on.. grab his ds and put it in the back pack for the bus ride...
we are almost out the door and russell and devon start to argue about lego.. i manage to back the car out of the driveway, as usual they are waiting and devon is kicking russell and russell is shouting retard...
we get to the bus stop.. i ramble about anything distracting while devon says inappropriate things.. russell starts to sing an eminiem song and devon repeats it.. russell tells me about another kid thats on the bus that fights with devon...
Then all seems to be quiet for a moment.. i take the moment and ask devon what he could have done this morning differently.. he said " be good?" i said but how? were you a good listener? did we work as a team today devon? did you make it easy or hard? you could have got dressed, ate quickly and had a 1/2 an hour to play with your lego.. but instead your chose your behaviour this morning... he laughs and says bad is fun.. I said its not very fun when noone is happy is it? i feel like I am talking to a wall.
he leans over says SORRY mommy.. and gives me a noogie... for devon this is affection. i say i love you too.. but mommy isnt happy at the moment..
I see the bus. we all get out of the car. I grab devons backpack.. he asks me when we are going to walmart.. i said not today... i said when you can prove to me you can listen. he says on the weekend? I said thats up to you then isnt it?
I drive home and look forward to being alone for the next 6 hours... hopefully he will be calmer when he walks in the door after school.

Hard to believe that 8 years ago I was getting ready to give birth to my youngest child. Time slips away from us so quickly that 8 years have seemed to have gone by without me realizing it... yet on some days they have also been the longest 8 years of my life!!!! :oP
I am getting over yet another cold. I was about due for one- hadnt been sick for at LEAST 3 months lol. Didnt hit me that hard which is good, ( knock on wood)- not the usual settle in my chest and set my asthma off for another month crap like it usually does.. lets hope it goes away completely in a couple more days.
I lost my bridge- NOT a good thing. So I have gone without a front tooth now for 2 weeks. I have tried to keep my smiling and talking in public to a minimum and hopefully I will have my new one ready by my tuesdays appt. now- to figure out how i am going to PAY for it... ack.. since our insurance isnt covering it..but its not something i can go without... kinda NOTICEABLE!!!
I also lost 8 lbs.. not alot but a start. not even going to say what i have left to go lol... it would only depress me and prob jinx any hope of losing anymore. however since i just really only started to put my heart and mind into actually trying for about a month now, - 8 lbs is pretty nice to see on the scale. my main goal for now is to fit comfortably into LAST years summer clothes!!!! LOL. ( which are one size less then what I am currently wearing :( so- I have at least 10 - 15 lbs to go to drop a whole size in my opinion.... sigh. WHEN i get that far THEN I will set another goal.
Russells currently lost 53 lbs. I cant get over it. Hes now 5'10 too... he looks like a completely different kid... now that that front tooth is coming in too i keep looking at him in wonder. even the dog doesnt recognise him 1/2 the time... if he comes into the room buddy will start to bark and russell says dumb ass its ME lol.. Devon is still the same height as he was LAST summer.. but hes gained 2 lbs ( he could stand to gain at least another 10)... maybe he will have a growth spurt soon... and hopefully gain some weight with it.
were taking devon to see monsters vs aliens on wednesday for his birthday with some of his friends... we got him a new green machine ( the bigger one- dean picked it up at toys r us in miami) and some lego... we gave him his presents already since dean wont be here tomorrow... and the kids on the street have taken over the green machine.. and devon of course lets them... sigh. I just hope it doesnt get smashed up like the other one.. he wont be getting another one!!!I am the only parent outside all the time ( and dean when hes home) and we are constantly having to parent every kid in the neighbourhood as well as our own... its a little grating.
devons watching the superfriends... mr Mxleplik (sp?) is just as gay as he was 30 years ago.
anyway... going to go
