SAL Wednesday 10/2015: Stressing

Tarot of the Magical Forest

I know, I know - I am perfecting the shame-faced look, let me tell you. But there's so much happening - I've definitely got the freaked-out froggy-eye look going on right now too.

I'm trying to restrain myself from being too much Momma Bear with Destructo Boy's school while trying to get him a little necessary extra attention - but because he's right there in the middle, not being the horrible gifted kid nor one of the naughty kids, he is being overlooked. As a result of my conversation today, our 10 minute parents' evening has been rescheduled to next week, for a minimum of 30 minutes .... I am sure his teacher and I are both anticipating it with joy and a glad heart. And the horrible kid's behavior is causing all kinds of dramaz in their little gang which is now having repercussions among the mums ... what fun.

Arrangements for TABI's 2015 Conference are well under way, but I do wish the rest of the team would realize it would really be so much easier and quicker if they'd just do what I want, since, yanno, what other option can there possibly be ?

And in addition, Titch and I have volunteered to run the cricket club's Breakfast Bar this summer, and have pretty much a blank canvas to work with, which is good but at the same time is requiring brain resources that I can ill-afford.

So it's quite amazing to me that I have got as far as I have with Mini Diva's cricket sweater:

For now I am going to ignore all the hassles and watch some mindless drivelly TV and knit some more .... you can pop over to Life & Yarn to see what everyone else is up to this week ...
