Thirteen Things about Ivy

1…. I’m Greatful for all the replies to my last post.. Thanks for the encouragement and the support.. Its greatly appreciated..

2… . I’ve decided to go see a professional counselor to see if I cant work past my fear.. I do not know if it will help.. BUT if there is a chance that it will.. I have/need to try..

3… . If you have no idea what i’m talking about.. See last post..

4… . I’ve come to the conclusion that I dont have all the answers when it comes to parenting. Matter of fact. I have very few of them. And my oldest is proving it daily. At 6 1/2 years old she seems to have hit the biggest attitude hse could possibly have.. She has made life very difficult for everyone the last few weeks.. She is currently grounded.

5… . Her grounding.. Is until further notice.. I have no idea how long she will be grounded. I have not found where that line gets drawn with her yet.. She is very difficult and making things worse daily instead of better.. It makes me question myself many many times..

6… .I find myself asking my mother’s advice alot lately when it comes to my oldest..

7… . My mom keeps telling me that my oldest is just like me.. That is really scary.. I dont remember giving my mum this much hell..

8… .I’ve found myself on the couch way too much lately and tuned into the tv way too much lately..That is really rare for me.. As there isnt very much on tv I really like..

9… Its really wed right now but we will pretend its thursday already because the truth is.. I’ll forget to do this tom..

10… .My oldest is out of school on friday.. I wish I could be happy.. But her attitude is punishment for us all lately.

11… .I’m starting to feel better physically with this pregnancy.. Its not always good.. Pregnancy just really sometimes sucks..But its getting better!!!!!!!!!!!! now to just deal with the mental/ emmotional stuff..

12… .I’m trying to figure out what we will do if we are hit by a hurricane this year.. The house is still not fixed.. Its starting to cause me anxiety.. Plus.. What happens if we are hit when i’m due?

13… . Its too much to think about right now. So i keep putting it off but i have to have agame plan.. Someone give me a game plan!

Trust me no one has all the answers when it comes to parenting. I have three teens and preschooler and I am still finding my way half the time.

I don’t think anybody has all of the answers when it comes to parenting. My TT is up now too at: http://kidzoo.blogspot.com/2006/04/thursday-thirteen_13.html

Sounds like you are taking your issue seriously, which is more than most people do. I personally think everyone could use therapy…at the very least it’s someone impartial to talk to.

Happy TT!
