christmas is over, new year coming:)

Christmas is finally over, next up new years:) All the kids have been out of whack do to school being out so I've been extra busy keeping up with them. Wr celebrated christmas at both of our our families and boxingday at home.They were all happy with thier gifts and only one melt down due to Normand stealing.My hope for the new year is that Normand actually gets real help and that we have CPS out of our lives as they cause more stress them good.

Busy,busy time! I haven't even started to bake for Christmas, I'll have to start. My parents kids party was a lot of fun, so was David's works. Not much left in way of Christmas parties which is good because that leaves for a stress free Christmas:)

I served the court order that I needed to and that took a whole day! Our new worker came over for the first time on Friday, complemented on the house and such but acted like she didn't think that they were going to dismiss the court case grrr. After being told by many people that they were going to dismiss it if you agree to their demands. Of course they have had no demands which is odd, I expected to be told to go to parenting classes and the such, why bother? I mean if they have only issues with one child and his behavoir and he's getting better on his new meds ,what kind of help can they possible help with? I bet the lady is waiting for the court date to become a real bitch! oh well can't dwell on that, if I dance to thier music I might end this sooner.

Christmas is coming and I see hope:)

This Christmas might not be as crazy as last year enough said.

Normand started a new medication last week and now has started to make eye contact and is sleeping, oh my he's not up to 3am then up at 5am.His sleeping means less work for me.

Our tree is up and my house decorated I cheaped out on wrapping paper and bought plastic gift bags, they are basically a garbage bag with snowflakes,so all the kids gifts are wrapped.Saved myself time and money. Christmas shopping is almost done,just need to find a gift for David and I.I get to buy myself a gift from David because he's a non shopper.I think I'm going to get David some nice gloves and something electronic.Myself IDK,it's hard to get a gift for myself, usually I'm a gift giver not a receiver and most things I like Normand will end up breaking some how.

Busy week~ busy life~

This week has been qiute busy. Christmas parties are underway, supervised access for the boys and so much more. All the kids are happy and really busy.

Normand has now been diagnosed with: adhd, ocd, tourettes, asperger's. All I can think about is my hope that he'll out grow it has shattered, on hard days I think to myself only 8 more years then it'll get so much better but now unless he's medicated he'll never be normal. Adhd was such an easy diagnoses but asperger's is a hard one.

On a good note , I have chickens,4 of the little guys, they will stay tiny but still they are soo cute. I'll get an egg layer or two in a few months when it's warmer. For now the four are in the basement as they are too young to even think about having outside.
