Aims, it is totally rotten but, as smonster pointed out, I bet you're being too hard on yourself about the mom part. You're one of the best moms I know. And you're really hard on yourself, in general. Stop it! Also, miss you.

Aims, I'm sorry life is so hard on you. I wish a miraculous solution will appear, somehow.

So sorry, Aims.

I can't think of a better way to say this. All the best figuring-things-out~ma to you.

Shir, it's always good to see you here. May things work out very well for you. Lots of F2F is good.

On a different note, at work the other day, I went with one of the individuals to his favorite convenience store. As we pulled into the parking lot, he said, "Hi, honey. I'm home."

That's cute Andi.

I feel like crap - sore throat, sometimes wheezy, feel cold (but no fever), I'm tired, and I get tired out easily. I went to the grocery store yesterday and it wiped me out. I keep feeling like I have some energy but then when I go to do stuff I get tired (did dishes, took a shower, now feel like I want to collapse on the bed).

I keep thinking I'll start feeling better but I don't. I think I'll give it one more day and go to the walk in clinic tomorrow if I'm still feeling bad.

askye, I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Aims, I'm sorry to hear about your suckitude of choices.

NY Attorney Schneiderman has filed suit against big banks over mortgage practices.

Ok. So it all shook out quite different.

I am being moved into a kindergarten room with a really nice teacher. She's fairly new - only 2 years in - and kind of got saddled with a lot AI, LD, and behavioral issue kids. She has two parapros, one of which got laid off. I will be paired with one boy half of the day who spends the other half of the day in the special ed room and the half a day I don't spend with him, I'll spend assisting a second boy. I'll be in the same hallway with the paras that I'm really close to and I think I'll enjoy it in the long run.

I'm feeling better about things in genereal today. Thank you all so much for the support last night. I've been on the verge of a panic attack all week and I'm just glad I know where I'm going. Though I feel like total shit because the girl I displaced is A) Emeline's music techer's daughter, B) an awesome girl who has that touch to work with challenging kids, and C) just got engaged and is planning her wedding. I saw her in the hallway and I gave her a huge hug and just kept saying, "I'm sorry." I'll shadow her for three days next week so that the kids get used to the idea.

I'm going to miss my kids so very much. I am heartbroken to leave them, especially my twins. I love those noodles.

Thank you again. You helped me get through the night without completely losing the plot.

Aims, I'm glad to hear that. I didn't get a chance to post last night, but I was thinking about you.
