 April 16, 2008 @ 05:04:33 am 0 Kudos   | i live upstairs from this girl ive known since we were like 13... weve lived together twice since weve been 18 gotten along great... shes kind of a hyper, promiscuous, opinionated type and im a lot more laid back... but at most we just irritate each other and get over it... she has a one-month-old and i have a 10-month-old so a part of the reason we rented the house was to help each other out as needed... it works well over all...
but... shes very prone to thinking that the way she does things is the way they should be done... and she loves telling people what they should do in any given situation... its not really her fault... her whole family is like that... and they all have this voice... its so hard to describe... theyre not really loud, but they have voices that definately carry... that and her prominent personality makes her quite hard to interject on when she gets on a role...
anyway... she watched my kid for me tonight so i could go out for a few hours... hes a pretty small kid... he was on the bottom of that curve weight chart up to recently... following it perfectly til he hit that crawling, standing, playing with everything faze which dropped him a notch to below the charts... he has cereal and an extra scoop of formula in every bottle, and eats baby food two or three times a day as much as we can get into him before hes impossibley distracted (few bites to 3/4 of a contaner)... so he has plenty of calories, but hes dads tall and skinny and was about the same size as a baby, so hes probably never going to be a chunky kid... she started giving me all this advice on feeding a baby and how much he should be eating when hes already got a home nurse/developmental person checking his progress every month, his pediatrician visits, and a specialist at childrens hospital looking at him every other month... ive already discussed his eating and playing habits with them and theyve all said it was fine... i dont need her telling me how to do this when shes not even at that point with her kid yet... then she started going into how i should be discipling him more than i am now... but whats the point in that... hes always smiling and happy playing around... anything he does wrong hes not doing to be bad... hes just curious... if he grabs a cord or something all he needs is to be told 'no' and turned towards something else fun... you dont need to slap his hands in that kind of situation...
anyway that just really got under my skin... besides its not like shes a perfect mommy... her kids a month old and shes gone out partying 7 times already... i dont tell her how wrong i think that is for her kid...

April 07, 2008 @ 02:43:10 am 0 Kudos | my brothers pretty mentally screwed up... doesnt sleep, restless as hell, panic attacks, voices, paranoia, etc... he moved back with my parents a while back cuz he got divorced and couldnt hold a job... hes been doing ok lately... hes not himself really but he can hold a factory job now...
anyway... hes decided now that he wants to get off his meds... he got into some huge fight with my parents over it and stayed with my sister all weekend, but he has to be out by tommorrow cuz she runs a a daycare out of her house and cant really have a borerline schitzo off his meds around... hes taking his dog and going to live out of his car... which is fun, but prolly not so much so when ur headed for a break...
it sucks... he made my mom and sister cry... he wont listen to anyone else... hes just being so damned idiotic about it all... if he wants to go off his meds, thats his choice and may not be a horrible move... if he wants to move out of the house, thats his choice and may not be a horrible move... but how the hell does he think hes gonna do both at once, and in such a bitter mindset...1 comments | Reply |
