The kidos came back. Mostly unharmed. Ms. G should have gone to the doctor. She had an ear infection for a week. But the nut would not take her in because that cost money. Mr. A got a nasty sunburn. Other than those two things they came back physically ok. Mentally however is a different story. The nut keeps telling them they are going to get to pick who they live with. And they better pick him. I hate to tell him this but he can not pay child support, take them to the doctor, or provide them their own bed to sleep in. I do not think he has a strong case for primary custody. Hello, you actually have to take care of the kids. DUH! He is just killing me. He let Ms. G and Mr. A watch The Sixth Sense. Ms. G did not want to watch it at all. tried not to but he made her. He wanted her not to be afraid of ghost anymore. Guess what? It did not work. She has had nightmares every night. He did not do this the first week there. NO, he did this the very last day. right before they came home. Thanks *&^%$#@!
Sorry that was the last of the bitching. Really, life here is fine. Mr. A has been seeing a psychologist. He has been diagnosed as ADHD. I have to say, it's no surprise. We start meds next week. It should be an interesting week. I am hoping this along with seeing Dr. E every week for a while will help him deal with life. Although I did find it rather interesting that Dr. E is saying Mr. A condition is aggravated by the nut. That no sort of order or schedule is not good for Mr. A.
Ms. G is a little nervous about being in 4th grade. She is worried because she doesn't know any of the teachers. She is also worried about her hair. Everyone keeps asking her about it and it is embarrassing her.
Baby A is doing great. Although he is having a very hard time when people leave him. He can not be left alone or he starts to really cry. I can understand this. In the past month, the kids were gone for 3 weeks and Dad was gone for a week then 3 days more. I totally understand ehat he is feeling. He did scare the nurse at teh new Dr's office. When he cries hard he ends up holding his breath and turning blue. When we told them that he did this, they though we were exaturating. Guess what?! We were not.
We ended up having to get a new doctor because our old Doc's office lost their lease. And I think when Dr. C wanted to become a partner she was told no. (something she said without saying it) So Dr. C left. She went back to be an ER doc. Damn! We all loved her. She knew all of us. TO the point when we had to call her after hours she called us and Sean said, "Hi Dr. C. This is Sean. Baby A is having another reaction...." she knew who Sean was and who baby A was. So we are going to a new Doc. We are trying really hard to get her caught up on all of Baby A's stuff, Mr. A's problems, and of course Ms. G in all her aliments. It's tough when after 2 hours in a doc's office you give little details here and there but they still won't have the whole picture for a while. I miss Dr. Conrad!
I will post some pictures for earlier in the summer.
