Confession: I should have waited until Halloween to buy the candy. I've been on a feeding frenzy with it since yesterday

 

[notsmokinjo]

Confession: I love living in Australia where I don't need to buy halloween candy.

[Whispers]

^^^^ Oh you're missing out. So you don't time warp either? it's just a jump to the left......

[Whispers]

 

[notsmokinjo]

Why wouldn't I time warp? Halloween's just not a thing here... the shops are trying to make it a thing... the kids would like it to be a thing..... but it isn't really....

 

Confession: I was shitty the kids first dance (blue light disco) was a halloween themed dress up one and I contemplated not letting her go.

I live out in the sticks now.  Up a mountain, in a house that you can't see from the road.  I would be really surprised if we get any trick-or-treaters at our front door.

 

Should probably buy some candy...just in case.  If we do get any little ghouls showing up looking for treats and all I have to give them is green juice and omega rich fish oil supplements, those little buggers are going to throw eggs at everything I own.

Confession: I feel a *little* annoying when I go thru to check on our new train riders...

 

But, I just want them to come play with us sooo bad...

 

There is a new stick playing the numbers game...the fun has begun chicklettes...

Confession: I bought some candy I didn't like a couple months ago so I'm giving it to the trick or treaters lol

[notsmokinjo]

Confession: I put Sarge in the front yard (he can't jump the fence) so that the trick or treaters (judging by the barking maybe 3) would skip our house.

One last harrah.

[notsmokinjo]

confession: To annoy the kid I talk like the good doctor.

[notsmokinjo]

Confession: I still have an empty NRT gum sheet in my purse that I can't throw out... its like a security blanket or something. It just sits there taking up room but I am not ready to chuck it in the bin yet.

[Wee fluffy me]

I hear ya Jo.. I only threw out my mist spray 2 weeks ago.. I had never used it but worried that if I didn't have it and I had a massive crave that could be the barrier between smoking and not smoking.. Stupid I know because it's never gonna happen and I would probably have been sick if I used it cos it was 3 months outta date..

Confession: When I teach the kid to make one of my dishes I resent that I can't just give her a recipe and be done with it.. her dyselxia means I have to measure things out in cups and re-do a colour coded recipe for her and its just easier to do shit meself... and then I feel like a bad mum.

We're just finding out my son is dyslexic...he hid it well; memorizing words and books but when they started doing real math in school...it was bad. 

He has a lazy eye (not terrible but it sucks) we've been working on that for 2 years and I really think that's why.

Patience and just breathe

[notsmokinjo]

I now have different colour measuring cups and spoons... so it says what colour she needs (ie green = 1/4)... but most of what I cook now is just in my head.. so I have to make them then write them down, measure out in cups how much of anything I use... however.. she will have a lovely recipe book with matching audio for life so its ok. Sounds like your little fella has stealth dyslexia... often hidden really well until years 5-8... when the wheels suddenly fall off the bus... Its because most dyslexics have really high IQs and are able to hide it to a certain extent. I have been riding the dyslexia mum bus for 5 years now so if you want any info or advice happy to help. I have files of info.
