The more things change, the more they change

The boy is waffling. Mom called and there aren't any tuition slots at his old high school. Since mom lives in a different county, he would have to go to the high school where she is. So he is really torn. I am meeting with a lawyer Friday to discuss giving my mom custody so she can enroll him and what that looks like down here and timeline etc. So, once we have those facts he can better make a decision.

We had a very good, genuine adult conversation last night. He asked if I felt I'd made the right decision going away to high school and he talked about how hard school is here and how he's feeling. He cried a little. I told him I knew he could be successful whatever he chose to do and that I would support him whatever he chose to do.

Have I ever mentioned that being a parent is the hardest job on the planet? At least if you give a rats butt.

Anyway, I ate exactly one meal yesterday which isn't great but ugh I was so stressed and felt like poo. Today I was sure to pack all my healthy food and eat it. Poor boy is liteally sick nearly every morning. The medicine the doctor gave him for gastritis doesn't seem to be helping, so I think we'll be headed back to the doctor. I feel sure it's stress, poor kid.

Being high strung can suck.

Anyway, I got a fair bit accomplished at work today. I certainly could have been more productive, but not much. Honestly, I did much better in that department. That felt good.

I walked the dog this morning and I think we'll go again tonight. I checked out a couple of weight lifting videos to try out at the office gym. No dogs "helping."
