What A Week!

As many of you have read CH's post, from earlier this week, it just got more interesting to say the least. After putting C back on the his regular meds that was second perscribed by his first counsler. We have seen a big improvement, that has been a big relief to everyone around us. We still haven't told C about the new school yet, of course those that knows, has let it slip of the tongue. One being my ex-co-worker from the store that I use to work at. She didn't know that we hadn't said any thing yet. She couldn't believe what the teacher had said, for those that have read me for a while have known the stuff that I've been through and knowing that I've been pulled in every direction. It's not easy to be Mom, Teacher, Friend, C.M.T, Sister and Wife. There hasn't been a moment this week where I have not shed a tear. I've had C on my lap and cried with him carried him, and craddled him even though he is very heavy. I know that is not good for my back, it's the best that I can do in this tough situation. C's resourse teacher stopped by the house on Tuesday night, I had explained to K on Monday after our bible studdy that C doesn't want to return back to school, so on Tuesday she stopped by after another mishap at school.

I understand that we have had a difficult time with C, here is the out come on Tuesday at school. C got out of hand sometime Tuesday morning, he ended up kicking his aid, which ended with teacher losing his temper yelled C and said he was going to a school for bad boys. C came home from school madder than hell. I asked what happen as heartfelt as I could he told me what the teacher had said. He looked at me and started crying because, we both know how upsetting this has been. It's one thing to lose control, but to tell a child that has so much going against him, it's not easy we've been down this road for the last two years, and no one has given us a complete answer as to what the hell is going on with our son. To make matters worse I had a teacher call me to apologized for losing his temper with C. It took a resourse teacher to come to my house. K is plan B, take C if and when he cannot handle a regular classroom setting. She saw some of the things that C does, one is hitting himself for no appearent reason. She took one look at both of us and said what just happened? We told her we don't know, it's one of his mind things that we cannot figure out.

Sure he gets excited when someone comes to visit, but Tuesday night was very much a blessing. We showed K the school we are looking into which is 25 miles away from here in a very small farming town. They have the tools that are needed from Family counsling and is in a restirctive invorment. Here's where it gets a little complicated since C, is doing so well in K's classroom, and the school that we live next to has already said we don't want him here. And if by some chance that he gets kicked out of school where are we to go next? We are praying this doesn't happen. All I've ever wanted was for our boys to strive, in their learning, no matter how long it takes them to get something right. I praise them, just to let them know that they are doing a good job. Of course C thinks he can go to the store, and buy a toy for doing such a good job. Not exactly what I want to do every night after the home work is done. As soon as I get a little extra cash, I'll be making a trip to the store without C, so I can pick up a few prizes just to keep in my closet in the bedroom so he doen't know that I have it. While out shopping over the weekend I picked up a few toys that caught is interest, which K took home with her, and uses them in the classroom, each morning he goes in and has twenty minutes of free play. C likes this better than going on the playground with the other kids. It's way too noisy for him. He can not handle too much noise, he starts covering his ears.

Usually this is my time to read and just to mediate on things, pray that our boys are doing fine in school. And since it's still been nice outside, and my truck needed a good cleanup. I've got time, C is half day of kinder. looked at the clock realized I had enough time to wash and clean the windows. Just about the time I was getting to the rims and wheels, my phone starts ringing, and I pick it up. It's the middle school where J attends. The office is calling me to pick up J from school. for a moment I thought it was about C then it clicked it's J's school. Mind you I've had a bad week dealing with teachers that don't understand what it's like to have a child that can't control his actions, to having a teacher that has gone out of her way to help in every which way she can. And now I've got another school on the line, she informs J had tripped and fell, landed on his left wrist. She had asked if I was able to pick J up. Thank goodness I had just finished getting all the soap and was in the middle of drying my truck when she called. I call CH told him what had happened, he came with us. By the time we left the minor injory clinic, I called my work told them my situation they gave me the night off. And it's a good thing they did, between a busy afternoon in the injoury clinic and getting x-rays done J is now wearing a bright green cast on his arm. And a bridge opening there was no way I could make it to work.

Yes I've been through a lot this week, just as I thought that I was going to go to work come home to a quiet house and all of a sudden bam!! I got hit with another event. J was in a lot of pain, his wrist was swollen, and it didn't look good. I asked him if he needed anything he said no. You take the bad with the good, thankfully it was only his wrist and not anything else.

As for my job search I took my test, for the school district I didn't pass it. I do have a few more shots in taking it over again, so I'm going to study hard and find a book that deals with test taking so I will be fresh and ready to aim high. I still don't understand why all of a sudden another career move, no one has the answer at the moment. I'm sure in due time it will be more of a clear picture. In the mean time have a safe and wonderful weekend. I have the house to myself. :D
