Text just sent to my son - "When you mom tells you not to take the horse's head to school and you do anyway - posting a picture online isn't the smartest move."
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Oh kids.
I was going to say something about being glad we didn't have social media when I was young, but then remembered my bro skipping school and going to the movies, and then watching tv in my mom's room and leaving the ticket stub lying on the bed. Stupid finds a way.

His response "But I asked security and the principal before I wore it and they all said I'd be in trouble if I didn't".
But kid, I told you NOT TO TAKE IT in the first place.

Not sure I'll have free time, Connie, but if I do I'll let you know since I'll be in your area.
What part of Utah will you be in?
ION, I dreamed a hurricane hit the town I lived in. For some reason, Polter lived in the basement of my house. When I went to check the damages--moderate but lots of water, and I had to salvage books and papers--Sunil and his mom were in the lower floor doing the same. Sunil, is your mother shorter than you, or was I just inputting Random Indian Lady for the part?

mac's response for not correcting the homework as he was instructed while I was at choir, "But the teacher says we don't have to (Blah blah blah stuff I couldn't hear due to blood rising)"
OF COURSE my response was " BUT I told you to due it, and right now, we are not at school and I am the one who decides what gets done."
MY parents were there for that exchange and I am sure there was a bit of, OMG never thought we hear all that from her. Still, they had it easy peasy lemon squeezy with me as a student.

If things are not put into my phone/computer calendar they do not happen.
Yep. I've even started booking appointments for myself to do things. I've got "pack suitcase" on my calendar tonight, because I keep losing track of Easter. I also use lists on a daily basis. Man, I was such a failboat before I had the option to manage my life electronically.
