Kids and karate?
Dear Diary,
Oh the weather is soooo warm! Im in shorts, hair up, no shoes and sweating. A breeze is slightly kicking up, I have the glass slider in my office open, oh how I love the warm weather!
The kids can take off outside everyday and just ride their bikes. They are happy too. My oldest got written up today but teacher said it was in self defense. The kid got suspended. But this is the 4 time hes been involved in a brawl, and everytime its self defense. So Im not sure what is going on, and I know hes dealing with a lot of anger. Me and my mother have been talking about Karate for him, to help with his anger, and discipline. Plus having a father who reacts violently, and is now absent from his life, Im sure all the factors just contribute to it all. My mother visited a Tae Kwan Do school for children yesterday and brought me home all the information. She watched 3 sessions and was overly impressed with the teacher. And talked to the girl up front. This instructor is very involved in the kids lives, wants to know why they are there, what areas in their life they need assistance on, what goes on at home, even as far as school, he has even met with some students teachers. My mom was like wow, and she watched him with the kids. We both see this as maybe what my child needs. But its costly, so either I have to find somewhere cheaper, or use some of the tax refund. But its worth it. He needs something for his aggression and acting out, something he can channel it into yet learn lessons about handling life.
I went to the gym today. Im starting to feel muscles in my biceps. Its kinda cool and a first for me to develop some muscle. I can feel it now. Its kinda wild. I have also lost 8 pds now. I worked out for several months, I noticed inches around my waist but my weight didnt change, 3 mos it stayed put then BAM I started to loose. So now Im at 138. So we shall see if this keeps up. But boyfriend keeps telling me to forget about what my weight is. That it doesnt matter, its seeing my body change, not numbers. But I guess its still a female thing, we like lower numbers on that scale. 🙂
I stopped by the store on my way home and I bought the cutest little pair of umm what are they called, Im having a brain lapse! The short pants, anyways they are denim with lace on the bottom, with fading down the middle of the material. I tried them on and they look so damn cute! Im gonna wear them tomm nite out with boyfriend. I have a sitter, Mom is gonna watch the kids! Woohoo! So I have from 5-midnite to spend with boyfriend. Probably a movie and dinner.
It will be a busy day tomm, trip to Chuckie Cheese in the afternoon, my girlfriends babies first bday and shes living out of state but having a get together with family and friends here in town before she and her hubby move to Florida. It will be good to see( shes my obssessive friend) And just hang out and talk with people Ive known since childhood and let the kids go play like crazy.
Then I head home and get ready for my date.
The other situation in my life I was dealing with is now resolved also, which feels good. I dont carry that weight around anymore.
Work is going well, Im really enjoying what I do and Im getting more freedom.
My Ex on the other hand, well nothing new to report, other then less contact lately, but hes still being himself. He drills my oldest on his grades and the computer everytime he calls, so last night I asked him to please stop repeating the same thing. He sat on the phone silent, then proceeded to question what my attny was doing. Sigh, the man will never learn, since I wouldnt get into it with him he got angry and hung up on me.
Praise the Lord he doesnt live here.
