Tuesday Tidbits

Back at work again.  I've only worked 9 days in August.  WOW.  But my vacation time is gone and of course I will be starting my busy season at work in September.

My summer cold is better.  Still kinda snotty but getting better.  Finally.  I hate being sick.

Jakes starts school tomorrow.  Its a big day!  First day of High School!  YAY!

Dad has his testing done tomorrow so we can figure out what's going on with him.   He has to start his prep for the testing today.  YUCK. But I am sick of waiting and wondering so this is a good thing.

We have a new driver in the house.  JR got his learners permit last week.  This means he can drive with certain restrictions, like a licensed driver with at least 3 years of experience.  he has to drive on this permit for 6 months before he can take the test for a provisional license which will allow him to drive without another driver in the car with him.  But since JR is a teenager, he thinks he's allowed to drive whenever he wants with this permit, without the properly licensed driver.

Huny has tried repeatedly to explain to him that when (not if) JR gets caught driving on his own, there will be consequences, such as not being able to get a license until he turns 21, plus fines.  JR doesn't care.  He does what he wants, when he wants and always has.  No amount of talking and explaining to him is getting through.  So Huny has decided to stop fighting with JR on it.

I have been fighting with Huny over it, trying to find something that he can do to stop JR from driving.  Since Huny is unwilling to take JR's keys, I am going to stop fighting with Huny and going to stop tattling on JR when I see him driving.  I am not going to continue to hurt my relationship with Huny over JR being stupid and stubborn.

I think that's all the tidbits I have.  I've been on vacation too much to accumulate anything really good!  Happy Tuesday!
