Gary just asked me how I was and I whined, "I don't know!" I really don't know if I can handle more crap today. It really never ends. 
Cait did not have a good first day of school.Schedule still messed up and Guidance, in general, are being very ^%$$#-ish about it.They sent out a Nasty-gram, saying how switching classes is something to be taken seriously, that original scheduling is done through careful consideration, :blah: Except that in Cait's case, this is NOT her original schedule. Not even close. We started filling out the forms that she needs to bring to each teacher of the incorrect class. In the comments section, I wrote that this class was not requested when she did course selection last year. She has to go to each "wrong" class, get the signatures, bring it to guidance who decides if they are acceptable, then figure out if they can now get her into the classes she requested months ago. Until all of that gets worked out, (3-5 days!) she has to stay in the wrong class, and will have to make up all of the work when she gets into the right class. She is not happy, and neither am I. If this doesn't get worked out soon, they are going to have to deal with the Wrath of Mom.
I don't like confrontation, but do not mess with my kids.:whip:
Scott's day went even worse. School seemed to go ok, but we didn't get to hear too much about it. Gary had noticed what he thought was an oil leak from his spot in the driveway. They take it over to the shop-- its not an oil leak, but something with the drive train (???? I am car-clueless). It is apparently rotting out underneath and it was power steering fluid leaking. To fix whatever needed to get fixed would cost over $1K. And he will be needed new brakes soon. The mechanic said that in his opinion, not worth putting the money into a 17 year old car.
Great. Just great. He/we don't have the money to get him a new car. Nor to get it fixed for that matter. My parents started a college fund for him when he was born, so he might have to use that. he was planning on using that when he goes to a 4 year school after he graduates from Community college. But he can't grad from that school if he has no way to drive there.
But there was good news in all of this. My drs appt went well, she said that I am healing nicely and was totally ok with my decision to not do hormone therapy. I have to wait for my mammo until 6 months post radiation so I need to make an appt in Nov. and I see her again in March.
Temptation on Thursday.
Don't get me started!!!
Hope that you all have a terrific day and that my family does too!!
