Well I go to look for the birth certificate and Dh is at work, and he tells me the key to the lock box is on his dresser. He has domain over 3 areas, his dresser, detached garage, and one kitchen cabinet. They look like something out of hoarders. There are no less than 30 keys in various containers along with socks, 1345643 receipts, rockS??? Tooth flossers, shorts... I call him and ask were is this key? Because we are going to have a disappointed kid that cant get his permit because his birth certificate is locked up. Finally found it in the drawer.
Not sure if I mentioned this before, but my Uncle and and his wife are having fertility issues. I got the news last week that they are pregnant! still very early, haven't gone in to listen to the heartbeat yet early. They were so excited and texted and told everyone right away. Now I am keeping everything crossed that their ultrasound next week goes well!!
traveltheworld In my experience trying to get DD tested for TAG through the school is that they are going to drag their feet. Especially since DD is content and not causing problems. I've been working on my end since October she finally got tested mid April. The school has the results but need to get the team together to go over so they told me I would know sometime in May. DD teacher isn't included in any of this. I would wait a week and send another with CCs to his teacher.
We got DS tested privately and I sent a copy of the report to the principal in my initial email. As far as I know, there wouldn't be team involvement since DS didn't present as twice-exceptional. I essentially just wanted an information session with the school to better understand what they could do and what programs/clubs/opportunities may be offered in the higher grades. We are still not sure if we should move DS to the school with the dedicated gifted program. I also wanted to bring this to the school's attention because I've heard that out of the four Grade 2 teachers, one is exceptionally strict, and that wouldn't be a good fit for DS, so this is my sneaky way of trying to ensure that DS doesn't get assigned to her class next year.
Random... But I'm trying to figure out if ExH lost his job again or suddenly won the lottery or what. He moved his girlfriend in and is suddenly posting pictures of himself on a plane. On a weekday. He couldn't leave the new job early to come see our kids in a school show, and loves to remind me about how broke he is despite having zero child expense responsibility, but can apparently jet set off to somewhere on a work day? I'm dying to know what is going on. He's become such a shady, lying jerk since the divorce.
Lost another 2 lbs this week! So I am officially at 10 lbs in 5 weeks. 30 more to go before I turn 40 in November! We have a beach vacation with my whole family planned for the 4th of July and I am pretty excited to not feel like a lump in a bathing suit. I won't be anywhere close to my goal weight/size by then, but it's always a nice confidence boost to feel a little slimmer then last time you were in a bathing suit.
