Preschool today. Whoo-hooo! Why can’t preschool be every day? Just because I didn’t sign up for such a thing? Oh yeah. . . <\/p>\n
I was a little irked by one of the moms. She has a little girl, but had been the carpool driver for a little boy in Erik’s class. The boy was totally hyped up and started telling Erik that Erik smelled bad. Erik HATES to be told he stinks. Tell him anything else and he can take a teasing, but tell him he stinks and he freaks out and starts crying.<\/p>\n
He was really frustrated and kept telling the boy “I tooked a shower last night! I don’t stink!” When I realized he was getting wound up, I told him to tell the boy that the boy was stinky. You gotta be able to take it and dish it out, right? I suppose some mothers would have tried to make it a moral lesson about being nice, but I’m not some mothers. I think it’s important that a kid learn the give and take of teasing.<\/p>\n
Erik started calling the kid a stinker and the kid was calling him a stinker back and they were laughing merrily along, while the other mother looked on in horror and told the kid that he shouldn’t call people names and was glaring at me for letting Erik do it with impunity.<\/p>\n
Blah. Sometimes I want to live in a bubble. Except I really like getting out and being social. Except when I’m grouchy. Which is all the time.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I went down to Joann’s after I dropped Erik off at school and got the two things I needed for Elsa’s paper doll quilt. Maybe I can even get started tomorrow! It would be a small miracle if I did an actual quilting project.<\/p>\n
Sadly, poor Mike seems to be sick so I haven’t seen much of him today. He came home and went straight to bed. I am hoping he just ate something bad and doesn’t really have the stomach flu. We have tickets for the George Strait\/Reba concert on Friday. We can’t be puking our guts out! <\/p>\n
I have my glucose test tomorrow. I’m a little nervous since I am in a high risk group for GD. At least it won’t be the ordeal it was when I was having Erik. The new practice scoffed when I asked if I had to go in an hour early to drink the drink under their supervision. They told me they don’t want a bunch of people hanging around the waiting room for no reason. Smart people. I have the drink and will swill it down in the privacy of my own home. <\/p>\n
I’m sort of wondering if I should call Erik’s ped and ask for a seasonal flu shot for him. He hasn’t had any flu vaccinations because I kept waiting for him to get the swine flu vaccine, but then it was never available. Is it too late? Should I forget it? Or should I give them a call? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
