So Much To Say, So Much To Say

October 11, 2006

Well, I dropped off the radar for a bit. Here’s what’s roaming around in my mind, bullet style:

• In the past week, our local news has brought to our attention some savory characters. One is a coach at a local Christian Academy who is now in jail because 8 years ago, he had sex with one of his students at another Christian school and videotaped it. The student finally came forward because she didn’t want him to “do this to another girl”. The other is his brother. The coach is now living with one of his former players, a 20 year old girl.

• A 5 year old severely Autistic boy drowned in an un-fenced in retention pond near his grandparents home Sunday night when he wandered away from his mother while she unloaded groceries from the car.
• Trenton Duckett is still missing.
• Last week, Spiff and I went to the doctor for a medicine management appointment. I’m still waiting for the actual prescriptions so I can fill them. It’s pretty bad when even Spiff realizes he’s wigging out.
• I have this strange rash that shows up on different parts of my body; but mostly on my legs and arms. I’m systematically scratching the skin off my arms and legs. My allergy appointment tomorrow can’t come fast enough.
• I’m starting to get jobs in our local school system. I’m excited and frightened all at the same time.
• It’s quickly becoming apparent to me that Scamp is beginning to exhibit similar characteristics of his older brother in classroom situations. I’m not really surprised, but it makes me all too aware that my battles are far from over if I keep him in his current school once he starts kindergarten. Here’s hoping the magnet or charter school has openings for next year…..

Well, I can’t type and scratch at the same time. Will share more tomorrow!
