What a day . . . .

I hope that I don't have anymore days like today. - Got up early and went grocery shopping. Came home and did laundry, dishes and cleaned. - Once kids were home, I went to take care of my nephew. - Got in a fight with my sister at her house because she wanted to borrow MORE money and got mad when I said NO. I told her that I had ZERO cash on me and she said, "I know you have a vacation fund in your room. Why don't you take it from there? I'm only asking for $20." ~ When I still said no, she decided to start treating her kids and mine like crap so I ripped her a new one. Told her that if she's mad at me then to take it out on me, not the kids. I also told her that it pissed me off that she would bring up my vacation fund as it's for my vacation next summer. NOT for her to keep borrowing from. - After the fight, me and my sister took all 3 kids to their open houses. 3 kids and only 2 hours to talk to all of their teachers so needless to say that I felt like I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. ~ On the plus side, I talked to the kid's parents that has been bullying my daughter and they agreed to help put a stop to it. - Took my sister and nephews home then came home to make dinner. I was just going to pop a TV dinner in the microwave but my daughter had her heart set on Tuna Noodle Casserole so while she showered, that's what I made. After we all ate, I went into my room to fold clothes and get everything ready for tomorrow morning and guess what . . . I CRASHED. Passed out right on top of the clean clothes. Luckily, I was only out for about 30 minutes so I still had time to finish what I was doing before getting my daughter to bed. It's 10pm and I'm working on packaging a few orders that need to ship tomorrow. And 5 hours from now, I have to be out the door to take my uncle to work. There just never seems to be time to relax anymore but my kid is happy and healthy so that's all that matters.

Sure hope the bullying stops. Noone deserves to be bullied. And noone is better than another to feel like they can bully others.

And the school is supposed to be on top of the bullying. This kid that's bullying my daughter is a special needs student and he does not give people their personal space. He corners her at her locker and makes her late to class. He's also threatened to kill another student but still is allowed to roam the halls. My daughter couldn't go to the most recent dance because the only teacher that can control him wasn't going to be a chaperone so she was too afraid to go.

@CountryGirl31 all schools are supposed to be on top of it. But parents always have to be. And hopefully now his will be.

@Courtlynn My daughter has been talking to the school counselor and a few teachers about this kid bothering her but his parents acted like they didnt know anything about it. I know this may seem bad but I'm sick of the school letting special needs students get away with all this crap. A few years ago, there was another one that would go around punching people and her aid would just say that she doesnt know what she's doing so she can't get in trouble for that.

Wow sounds like a really long and exhausting day for you. You really deserve a good rest after all that running around. Hope things are okay between you and your sister.
