Today is Anastasia’s birthday! She turns 11 today. We celebrated with our family this past weekend, I made cupcakes for her class today. Then we are going to the Apple store tonight to get her one last gift. I gave her the option of splitting the cost of an iPod Touch for her birthday. She wants one really bad and I could not justify spending the another $200 when I already spent that on more on her other gifts. ;)
Anyway, Happy Birthday to my little girl. She is growing up way too fast.
I have been swamped with new clients, Anastasia flooding a bathroom and being out of school on spring break and a bunch of other things that have decided to elude my memory at this point in the middle of the night.
So, I will be back writing soon, till then, don’t let your little ones experiment with q-tips, a wad of toilet paper and a toilet bowl, it’s just not worth the $200 plumber bill. o.O
I learned that in spanish class when I was in high school. Of course I learned it in spanish and I still remember how to say it in spanish, I am just not sure how to type it.
Anastasia has had a tough time keeping her mouth closed these days. To the extent she has completely pissed off the assistant principle and a few teachers. She argues with everyone. Disrespects most everyone and generally has a bad attitude.
Nothing is different in our lives. Nothing has changed. Nothing new has started. So why, why is she acting out like this?
She got to bite into a bar of soap last night for cursing and yelling. I am not happy about it, although what else can I do? I tried the nice talks, the mean talks, yelling, spanking, grounding and just about everything else.
She has spring break coming up, maybe she just needs a break from school.
I have been trying to get this blog and keep it updated although I have been pretty busy. Working for myself in this economy is NOT easy. And since I am the only provider for Anastasia, if I am not making money, no one else is for us.
So, I hope you bare with me while I work my butt off trying to make some money to get my daughter and I ahead in the world.
So last night was my daughter’s Talent Show at her school. I was really disappointed for the kids because it was held in the cafeteria and there was a basketball game goin on in the gym, right in the next room…
The sound system was not great and all the parents had to strain to hear their kids performing.
Still, I was proud of my little girl. She got up in front of everyone and sang. :)
