So...we have 4 kittens. (which my husband is very anxious to be rid of) as well as, according to my husband, too many other cats. Two of the kittens have already visited the vet for injuries from the other kittens.....to the tune of $550.00! Just as with kids, one injury occured after office hours so we were lucky enough to pay the after-hours prices!!! Swell! I still have to get them their shots so three of them can go to their new homes this weekend. Of course all the low cost clinic are on the weekend and we won't be home. Once again, my poor planning will cost me.
Ahhhh...the second week of school. I'm already waiting for summer vacation. I am one of those parents that loves summer vacation. I also hate homework. Most people don't take home their work, why should our kids. Besides, homework cuts into my nap time!
My youngest is the most difficult to get up in the mornings. He's worst the later he goes to bed. Have you ever noticed how kids are good at making an 8:00pm bedtime into a 10:00pm bedtime? That's what he did last night. Dragging his feet into the shower (you know the 5 minute kind that you know he didn't use the soap) then he decides he's scared and wants me to snuggle......in my bed with him. Of course I do because he's too cute. Besides, I'm ready for bed..the dishes can wait til tomorrow.
Our 11 year old tells me after coming home from a friend's house, that he has a rough draft due tomorrow and would I please type it. Has he even started writing??? No way! But he did get some online information on the subject the day before. However, he hadn't read it yet. Once he did, he realized it wasn't the correct type of information. So, there he is at 9:15pm Googling Benjamin Franklin. He actually wrote a good one page report. I told him I would type it after his teacher proof-read it. Ha ha, got out of that one. Besides, I had to go snuggle in my bed with by frightened 8 year old, remember? Friday won't come soon enough. It never does.
