Totally girl cc!!! Awesome! Fun hey?!?! I'm going to do it a few more times but need more glass jars!
Annoying day for us today! UGH! Our oldest son had a very bad today (has always had behavior issues), I can't even explain how bad! We had confirmed a friend was dropping her son off for a sleepover, and had told him. He was excited.
Then we decided to take him bowling for the first time and were getting in our van (he was in a bad mood at this point but not melting down) and he brought up his friend coming over, we said "yup he's coming!" "We'll make popcorn, watch movies, wear your jammies!" ect ect and he said "He's coming today?!" we said yes and his excitement increased. 2 seconds later I sat down in our van and saw I had 6 text messages (didn't hear them come in), and it was my friend saying "I meant tomorrow!!!" O_O!!!!!! Changes like this tend to really upset our son, ugh!
So then we have to tell him, and his mood worsens. We go to the bowling alley and find out it's a 2 hour wait, and decide to forget it. Then he's super upset and breaking down more. Gets home and just LOSES it!!! Oh my, poor guy. Dad and I are SUPER stressed. We have no idea how to help him, it was awful.
So we have dinner and decide to go swimming, thinking he needs to just do something fun. We decide on a pool a ways away from home, rather than our usual pool. Trying something new right? Get there, realize we forgot my husband's shorts. EFF. Then realize we didn't have enough for the lockers there, so I told my husband to take all our stuff, grab money and when he comes back put it all in. O_O
BAD IDEA! Van breaks down. Fantastic. I don't usually take them both alone because my older son gets bored because I have to follow our little guy. So we were in there for a couple of hours before he got some help and came and got us. We're hoping it's just the alternator and battery!
My husband and I are pretty stressed out, it's such a bad time. Our extra money this month was supposed to go to our son's birthday party. I was feeling really crampy so I'm trying to calm down and relax. Siiigh.
