I am one tired mama.
The last week of Elementary school should be equivalent to boot camp.
It's ridiculous and exhausting within range of right & wrong.
Mer-boy won two awards finally yesterday...they over-looked him until I doped him up on Amphetamine salts...it's so exhausting to watch this beautiful free spirit, be shamed for not fitting inside "the Box'
Absberger's is misunderstood...Ehlers Danlos has no cure...and you can forget about growth hormones unless you have bitchin' insurance at 10K a MONTH.
"Well,, sayeth the Physician, what did you do wrong during your pregnancy.
I ate right, I exercised, took every vitamin under the sun (I believe I re-roofed a two-story home in fact)...but I divorced
the SOB before it cost me my child...so I fight the "Good" fight, as I've always done.
My child is my life. I cannot explain it in lay terms any better than that.
He wakes me up with a smile, he smells of roses, and it's hard as hell to let him go (grow).
This committee I'm on, whether I was used to establish a grant writing certificate or given a task to shut me the hell up (because you know how opinionated I am...I am my my fathers child...leaves me with the "Charity Case Blues'...Oh honey how I wish they knew.
Who
What
When
Where
Why...in the Hell would they think our case is anything more than "shut them rich women up?"
Oh gee I dunno, maybe it's because our children are valuable creatures of light and love...sparkling balls of energy who picked us because they KNEW we could fight the good fight for them?
The Course I took, whether it be a way to keep me occupied or a way for me to make a difference, pales in comparison to being married to one of the movers and shakers in this town. Been there, done that, noooo thanks. I'll stick to living my glass house, not even acknowledging "The Box".
Having your shin kicked under the table at an OK Arts Council dinner for saying "I don't care if Frida Kahlo was a communist...I still love her work." Told me this "Mover & Shaker could keep right on moving.
But, 'aint he beautiful?
