Well, all those places that I reported the doctor we saw last week are contacting me and telling me to report her to the Texas State Medical Licensing Board.....something tells me she is going to be in trouble in the state of Texas along with the state of New York! Makes my day!!!! Sorry.....shouldn't feel that way. It took me three hours to fill out all the government forms to have her investigated.
Guy is in San Antonio for the SEG convention, so we are home alone just waiting for the trauma to arrive! I know I shouldn't plan on it, but something ALWAYS happens.
Cymbre's eye faded yesterday for several hours, but thankfully she didn't get a headache....score one for Cymbre!
I am still taking on the school district because they hire dumb monkeys to do the humans work, and then my taxes are paying them.....maybe I should run for the school board.....nah....I would have to have a heart attack at every meeting! They won't take the off campus grades in a sealed envelope from the studio. They want them faxed....however, they can't manage to provide the studio with the correct information to be able to fax them. Some schools are just taking the envelopes, but Cymbre's isn't. Her registrar is just being a real ....well, you can fill in the blank....but it isn't a very nice word. So the studio that doesn't own a fax machine is supposed to fax in the grade to a person they don't know the name of, and don't have the fax phone number of. OR, the studio director can drive for an hour to the district office and personally hand in the grades. WHAT? For 5 years we have turned in the grades in sealed envelopes, or even sometimes just the paper, and it's never been a problem. This year, because I started asking questions as to why our studio didn't have the information, it seems that the monkey at the district is trying to attempt to do a very small part of her job. (Guess she didn't like being told that for the past 5 years she hasn't done it....) So at Cymbre's school, the new registrar is being a pain, and refuses to accept her grade....at the high school for Cooper, they didn't care. So what's happened to consistancy is district policy? And, if the parents aren't supposed to be involved in getting the grades turned in, how come when there is a problem the school district lady calls and rips the parent who isn't supposed to be involved. Oh, she wants me to make the teacher call her......GIVE ME A BREAK! I told the district lady that if she was doing her job, she should be the one contacting the dance teacher....it wasn't my job to make her call her. I am not her boss, mother, husband, or clergyman. Our studio doesn't own a fax machine, and doesn't have the money to buy one. Maybe she should just go visit the teacher, email the teacher, or heaven forbid call the teacher. And that she can't expect our teacher to drive for over an hour to hand in a piece of paper, when all the other schools are taking the grades the kids bring in. You might say this district lady isn't happy with me......I could care less. I have done off campus pe for 5 years, and never once has there been any communication from the district to any studio we have worked with, or that I used to run. So this year, because I started asking when grades were due, the new lady at Cymbre's school is flipping out. If one school has to obey the policy, why aren't the rest of them having to obey the policy, and why do we have the stupid policy anyway. My tax dollars at work paying monkeys! I want a rebate!!!!!
Cooper is home sick today...sore throat, ears hurting. The doctor gave her some medicine....she'll start to feel better by tomorrow night I hope.
The girls have an ok from the dance director to enter the Hall of Fame competition in Austin, and attend the Tap2You tap convention in Dallas. She doesn't need them on those two weekends. Cooper is now working on the solo that Mark Goodman came and choreographed for her. It's hard....a challenge for her. She was thrilled to work with Mark. He is a master tap teacher who has performed on Broadway. Cooper is still finishing up a jazz solo, and another tap solo with MS. Andee too. Cymbre is doing her tap solo with Ms. Andee, and then they both have a tap group and Cooper has a Contemporary group this year. Cooper will probably do Tap Kids again this summer...it was a tremendous experience for her. They will also attend the Jump and hopefully, the Pulse dance conventions. So it will be a busy dance year for them. Guess this mom better get to work on costumes!
My Sunday School class continues to go well...at least now they believe that I can play the accordian....some of them have seen it. This week I made them pretend to be home and visiting teachers who had to take the messages that Paul wrote in letter to the saint in Corinth to their families. They had to read the scriptures, figure out the lesson to be taught, and then give me an idea as to how they would teach the family. It was an interesting experiment.....they learned some things about how the scriptures really do relate to our day. On a side note...since I will be teaching the Book of Mormon next year, I bought some bloody arms from the halloween section of the store....don't you think that will be fun when we do the Ammon story? I think I will get the Bishop to dress up as the king, and let the kids bring him the bag of arms.....should bring the story to life for them don't you think? I will get all of Cooper's group next year...rumor has it they are already looking forward to coming into my class. Guy just wants to know where we are going to store our bloody arms....
I have now finished crocheting 5 baby blankets, but Cymbre gave the last one to her YW leader who is having a baby soon. So, now I am looking for another pattern to try to start making another one. I love to crochet while I watch TV or wait for the girls.
Well, must get busy doing something constructive....guess I'll fold some clothes before I have to go get the Beastie at school.
Have a great day....get out there and do something fun to someone.
Love you.
Mom
