Well, I got out of going to the school festival. But only because Benjamin is in a world of trouble. ON the bus ride (Sorry, Larry) home this afternoon he was leaning over a seat to watch a youtube video with another kid. When the bus driver told him to sit in his seat, he yelled at the driver "I'M WATCHING A VIDEO". Now, if OG Papa Thiele had gotten a report like that then I wouldn't have sat down for a full day or more. He is grounded to his room for the night and will not be doing much of anything all weekend. Beth and I do not agree on spanking so trying to think my way through that.

One day....one *&^%$#@ day I want to have a normal day with no BS and drama. I know it won't last, but I'd savor the *&^% out of it.

*rant over*

How the hell is every one else?

Yup. Had days like that. The last thing Jaxen got busted for was pouring milk on a kids head at lunch.

Tough days. Love him to death, and it kills me to hear him crying in his room but can't let him get away with it.

So, how about that local sports team?
