Sunday Morn

Well, I guess I'm still feeling the effects of my week; I slept until 10:30 this morning. Nate came in to wake me since we have church at noon. So I have my morning cup of joe (Dr. Pepper) and get going in the shower. I'm in putting my makeup on when Sammy comes in all pumped up on anger. She doesn't want to shower. In her 8 1/2 years, she has always had to bathe and wash her hair for church. This is not a new concept. But she is having none of this. She is now crying and working up a good hissy fit. This week I started a new chart to monitor behavior. Each kid has a chart that says phone computer tv room. If they bicker, or they are disrespectful or they don't do as they are asked, I will cross one of these privileges off. If you get to room, you are there for the day. So I went to the kitchen to cross one of these off Sam's chart. That makes her mad. So she finally showers, but doesn't wash her hair. SIGH!!!! And she is just screaming at me the whole time she is in there. I love Megan more. We give Megan all the credit. I should drop her off at the homeless shelter so that a new family can adopt her. Do you want me to???? Careful what you ask for! She is so worked up that we realize that she probably won't be going to church. I very kindly and unselfishly offered to stay home with her while she napped. And yeah, I fell back asleep at noon and slept until 3. Hopefully I've slept it all off and tomorrow I'll have my energy back. And by the way, Sammy has spent all day in her room. She is very sorry and we are pretty sure tomorrow will be a better day.





For some reason today, we had on Spike TV Stunts go Wild on all afternoon. Ever notice how there are never any women doing those stunts? I'm just saying. You just don't see girls putting themselves in hurts way like that.
