Jinx!

Oh, how I hate to even say this out loud, for fear I will jinx it - BUT - it appears we are on the tail end of Sal's "side effect of birth control pill" period.  It's now day 14!  I've called the Dr twice.  He assured me this is a side effect sometimes in the first couple of months that the pill is taken.  I tell ya - it's been rough here. 

She's had the worst days at school lately too.  I can't believe it's not a co-incidence.  I just pray that this is the last of things I have to deal with where I will have no idea of what's going on inside her body.  (yeah, fat chance, huh?)  ;-)

So, we started Soccer last night.  First time - first practice.  I think she was a little surprised that she's gonna have to run all game.  Someone suggested to me that if she's the goalie she wouldn't have to run.  That "Friends" episode flashed though my head with the game show questions by Ross:  "When Monica was a goalie in school what was her nick name?"   "Big Fat Goalie".   :-)   Oh, I joke.

It dawned on me this morning that Sal's schedule is now daily.  Mondays=Swim Team, Tuesdays=Boccie Ball, Wednesdays=Soccer, Thursdays=Bowling and of course Social Club on some Saturdays.  :-)  She is a happy girl when she's involved.

Last night she was greeted by Aaron (from basketball) and he was excited that he would see Sal on Tuesdays (Boccie ball) and on Wednesdays now.  :-)  He's such a nice "kid". ( I have a feeling he's really in his late 20s or early 30s.) 

Jack, on the other hand, has decided I'm his personal assistant.  His class takes a walk through the neighborhood after their ISAT tests in the morning and usually walk by here.  (Mabel LOVES it - howls the whole time she can see them) Anyway, he asked me last night if I would make cookies and have them ready when the class walked by and then stand out at the sidewalk and give them out as they walked by.  Oh, the boy is really delusional.  :-)  Needless to say, I will NOT be making cookies - yes, I am the worst Mom in the world!  ;-)
