I Hate Daylight Savings Changes

Billy Ray is off schedule again. I bet many of you are experiencing that with your kiddos too. Mornings are definitely better if he can wake up on his own but when the time changes if I allow that to happen we are running late. Then he still wants to putter around like when he has a lot more time. He missed his volunteer job this morning. It takes a couple of weeks to get back in get back in gear so we should be getting there in a few more days. One good thing is that I get more time to enjoy my coffee and deal with my email from some of you. I am finally getting caught up on that and my blogs. If I haven't answered yours remind me. It feels like spring FINALLY this morning. Sorry K.C. snow is all gone. Well we are off to the Post Office, a late lunch and a haircut for Mom.

When Your Child Won't Let You Tell Him the Truth

Suffice it to say my mother sometimes had a problem with honesty. I hated it and swore I would never lie to my own children. Billy Ray is experiencing some changes that makes it impossible to keep that commitment to myself. For example, he listens to a walkman ALOT and the batteries run out every few days. He used to bring it to me to change them now for some reason he resistent to that task even when it quits working. However, it doesn't work he is irritated too. Before my divorce Larry would sneak in an change the batteries while I was bathing Billy Ray. Now I am getting creative at sneaking the new batteries. Additionally, he has spcific answers to questions he asks and that is the only thing he will accept even if it is no longer true. In order to move on with the day it is necessary to give him the answer he wants. There are countless examples of that lately. As in other things you just have adapt and communicate. Sorry that I have missed all of you for a while. Larry and I are divorced (I will probably share more of that on my personal blog Peggy Lou Morgan in the future), I am working on new writing project, etc., etc. I wanted to welcome some new readers South Korea, India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh and Pakistan. I am so glad that my books are available to you and that you are finding your way to me and to this blog. Until Next Time, Peggy Lou Morgan www.peggyloumorgan.com (for a complete list of my sites)
