I HAVE FOUND IT!
I have discovered the breaking point. The point at which I fail. Loudly.
How in the mother-effing hell do single, full-time working parents keep up with the homework and studying of two children - one of which is ADHD and anxiety-riddled?
There is not enough time in the day to get home, fix dinner, get 2 kids-worth of homework done, take showers and then sit to study for tests on Mesopotamian...
Today I have heard exactly two songs:
1. Werewolf in London
2. Bad Moon Rising
I’m unsure what to do with this information.
I am watching The Vampire Diaries on Netflix in my hotel room while drinking french press and eating Toblerone and rosemary marcona almonds from a gift bag for breakfast.
My life is weird.

Things I have done today:
- Take child to pediatrician due to scary health thingy that turned out to be nothing (thankfully)
- Run by seamstress to pick up item with repaired zipper (An old, ripped up sweatshirt of my dad’s that he cherishes. I could buy two new ones for what it cost me to repair the zipper.)
- Stop at crazy general store place to have house keys made for my...

This business about the exotic animals loose in Ohio?
Really, really upsets me. Like I can’t really coherently write about it.
Those animals are being killed indiscriminately. There are better options.
It’s really hard not to rant about it.
It really is just awful. I cried when I saw the photo of all the dead animals. But they really had no choice. They even had Jack...
Authorities are actively searching for "wild and...

so please stop telling me that you, and especially your kid, have it. you don’t. they don’t. because it doesn’t exist. ADD/ADHD is something people came up with so kids would shut up and zombie out in class or the living room so lazy teachers and parents wouldn’t have to do their fucking jobs. …

Sit down and help my 11 y/o with her...
