RAH! Not the cheerleader's kind of "RAH!" but the baby lion cub kind of "RAH!"
Ok, so these peoples have been working on the roof at my school for
well, since school started. And the work is accompanied by this
hideous tar smell to which I am allergic. It, the smell, gives me
a headache and a stomachache and makes my eyes all gooey! It also
makes Erik's seizures and migraines worse - Soooooooo we've gotten to
ride in an abulance to Schumpert Medical Center two times in the last
week! Yipee! (VERY SARCASTICALLY SAID!) Can't WAIT to get
THOSE bills!
Then, Friday night, we went to Bryd's foosball game, yes, I typed
Bryd. I call it that, ok? So, we were at Bryd's foosball
game, watching a VERY nervous Tinka perform a routine which she had
just A) learned and B) choreographed part of. She looked good
until such time as she dropped what she calls an "easy trick."
Ok, so none of that is EASY as far as I am concerned, but hey, I'm not
a twirler! Anywho...then she got mad at herself, as she often
does when she drops an "easy trick" and proceeded to drop another "easy
trick." Well, down hill it went from there...Next thing I know,
Brook Stanley is running up to me telling me that Christina is having
one of her "Oh my gosh one of her (waving her hands frantically in
front of her face and breathing heavily) thingies!!" So I run
down the bleachers and begin searching the sea of faces for my
daughter. I get to her FINALLY! She's white as a sheet,
people crowded around her, hyperventilating, and her hands spasmed into
what looks like old people's arthritis. I call over the
parametics to ask for some oxygen, which they never did give her...but
would have helped her immediately had she been given the oxygen as it
would have FORCED her to slow her breathing, but hey...what do I
know? ANYWHO....much later, she finally calmed down enough to
breathe somewhat normally and we decided to leave the Bryd game....Did
I mention they got whooped??
So...I've been spending the last month and a half (since school
started) - A. worrying about my job, which is still not 100% secure, B.
dealing with the hideous tar monster outside of my classroom window, C.
worrying about my son and his seizure/migraine dealios, D. worrying
about my daughter and her anxiety/stress/panic things, and E. wishing
things would mellow out so I could just not stress any more
Did I
mention that all of this stressing has given me this major case of
pregnant bellyitis? In other words, everytime I eat I swell up
and look pregnant?! It's pathetic!
RAH!
