TGIF

Thank God it is Friday.
It's been a very long week, and one I'm glad to see end.
The weekend is going to blow. Brandy has to work tomorrow, we go to
MaMaw's on Sunday.....I really just want to hang around the house the
whole weekend and do nothing at all.
Doesn't look like that is going to happen this weekend.
*sigh*

Parent/Teacher conference last night.
PURE HELL.
Gabe's teacher scheduled us for 5:30.
Shocker, we were there at 5:25. I couldn't believe it.
I was actually early for something.
Too bad we had to stand around out in the
hall until 5:45 while she chatted
away with another teacher over nothing.
I was sooo pissed.
But we got in there and she just raved about Gabe.
He's so sweet, and follows directions so well,
I love hearing stuff like that!
His results for some kind of test(reading) came back
and he's at the advanced end.
Monday his teacher is moving him to a different reading group
where he'll do more reading by himself
and projects.
His spelling and math are both 100.
I'm so proud of my Gabey.

Then we headed off to the 6th grade hall for Alee.
It was horrible from the beginning.
We stood in line for over an hour. Crazy.
Then we get on there and I want to kill Alee.
They get checks every time they get into trouble.
4 checks and they lose the movie day at the end of the month.
Alee has 3. Ohmahgawd. I could have strangled her.
She got one for singing during class. One for dancing during class.
One for spitting on a boy(Alee swore that one was
an accident, but she still got in trouble).
Srsly could have snapped her damn head off
then and there.
She knows better than that.
Then we got to her grades.
Honestly, they weren't that bad until she got to Social Studies.
A freaking C. She failed 2 open book tests, a quiz, and
got a big ole F on some homework.
Momma was so not happy.
I don't take anything lower than a B.
She's got 4 more weeks to pull that C up and
she had best do it.
We didn't go talk to her SS teacher, I was
soo pissed after being there almost 2 hours
and then having to listen
at how bad Alee was acting.

Still getting nowhere with the desktop.
We need a cd to boot from.
The piece of crap came with all the backup stuff installed on it.
I don't understand how that's even
remotely a good idea.
Take us for example;
Shit is missing(a system config file, for starters),
and wouldn't you know it,
it needs a boot up disk to replace it.
I honestly don't know that it'd
be better for us to have this one fixed instead
of just buying a new one.
Only sucky thing is now that the desktop is crap
we have no house phone.
No computer = No MagicJack.
I don't have enough USB ports on the laptop for it,
and honestly I'm not crazy about
being tied down with a phone line, either.
Just a big headache.

Still mourning my camera.

The kids are out of school today,
fighting, tearing the house apart.
I should probably go make sure nothing's on fire down the hall.....
they're terribly quiet.
