I'm effing exhausted. We were woken up at 1:00am by the cops. P owns a duplex and the other side was broken in to. We think it happened during the day and as the dude works B shift, it wasn't discovered until super late.
Kid openly admitted she snuck out to make out with a boy. Who then pressured her to give him a bj. She reports she didn't want to and made him drive her home and then he told her he doesn't want anything to do with her anymore. We have a very long talk last night and went through every app on her phone.
Today is DS's first day of first grade. I worry about him. I picked him up from his dad's house last night after 5 days with dad, and he informed me that he thinks he is "the worst person in the whole world." He seemed really sad as we talked about it and when I asked him what he does that he thinks makes him the worst person in the world, he said "everything". So I tried a new tactic and asked him what I could do to help him NOT be the worst person in the world and he said "nothing. It's just me being me and doing the things I do." Wtf happened to my sweet, happy boy over the last 5 days???
I'm hoping that some good sleep will help, but I have to wake him up in a couple of minutes to get ready for school.
I don't have any other symptoms - just this incredibly annoying, painful cough. I'm not stuffed up. I don't have a fever. I don't feel like I have a cold, but clearly I have enough drainage to set off this cough. And I'm coughing enough to give myself a massive headache.
I tried Delsym over the weekend and it didn't help

Ugh, poor little guy. I hope that he can snap back quick from that nonsense. I'm going to guess I need to throat punch your XH for this.

It's a pretty safe bet, although DS did admit that xh's gf' s daughter told him that too. So I'm not sure. He was exhausted when we got home though. He was voluntarily in bed by 7:30. I'm hoping he'll be back to normal soon.
doriswe, I am glad you guys were able to talk it through.
starrieskies, I have friends going to Seattle next week for a conference--do I need to tell them to make a side trip? Because I'm sure more than one would be glad to do a sly nut punch or something.
I'm really emotional today and I've no idea why. AF just finished up so it's not that. But I've been weepy today and can't put my finger on it.
I slept last night but don't feel like I slept deeply
doriswe I'm glad your daughter came clean and didn't do something she didn't want to do because of peer pressure.
starrieskies That makes me so sad. I hope he feels better.
I am an idiot. Every year I set a reminder for my annual exam. I called a few weeks ago for an appointment on October 6. Yesterday I got a reminder for last years appointment I guess I set it to reoccur and got up early, got frustrated in traffic only to sit in the office for a few minutes to be told I had the wrong date.
Tomorrow I am going to see a specialist about getting a root canal. I guess in other news I'm eating less since it hurts to eat.
neonpink the only bright side I can think of is that root canals done by an endodontist tend to be better than ones done by a "GP" dentist. I really hope they get you in ASAP and that you get relief quickly. Did your dentist put you on any antibiotics?

I'm on something that reduces inflammation, and she gave me some pain medication. I've learned to baby that side of my mouth so It hasn't been such a throbbing pain. It only really hurts if I hit it or drink something cold.
starrieskies, how was he when he went to school? (wait, I can't do the math...is it too early for him to go to school there?)
He did pretty well. He told me he was nervous, but that he was going to be ok. There was a brief moment of panic when he got on the bus and saw how many kids were on it. Lay year he was one of the first kids on, the stop by our house now is one of the last. But he found s seat and gave me a thumbs up to let me know he was ok.
His attitude was more normal once he woke up, but I still worry. I think sleep helped. I'm going to try to get him in bed early for the rest of the week. The good news is that since he had an extended stay worth his dad last weekend I have him to myself until next Thursday. So that gives me time to talk with him more and offer extra reassurances.

It's good that you have pain meds. Hopefully they'll be able to do the procedure this week. If you do have to be on antibiotics and the pain doesn't go away tell them ASAP (this happened to me once).

He's cute! I hope he got all of that out of his system last night and can get back on track being cute and awesome!
I am sitting next to you cuddlyevil sharing the Kleenex box. I started feeling super weepy last night around dinner time and it carried over to today. I decided to go to the coffee shop to do schoolwork today in hopes of being around other humans stops these feelings.
