I don’t even know where to begin. The school drama, family drama, health drama.
DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA
I swear I feel like I haven’t been able to catch my breath and it’s now April!
School Drama
My husband went to the school to pick up any of our son’s belongings from his desk and locker and got into a conversation with the principal where she said the reason none of our calls got returned was because in ONE of the many messages both my husband and I left… he said “we’re going to have to homeschool if things don’t change”. She said that “legally” once the WORD homeschool is used, the school basically considers that as the child no longer being enrolled.
Um. What?
She then proceeded to say that our three year old is “behind” because the times she saw him during school meetings… he didn’t talk.
Seriously. Because my toddler has manners, he’s… delayed? Anyone that knows my kids in person, knows they are major chatterboxes. BIG TIME chatterboxes. IT IS NEVER QUIET. They talk in their sleep!
Then she said that she was “concerned” that child protective services would get involved because of Danny being homeschooled. This why I always send my husband to the school because I’d end up with a restraining order…, she got a bit testy when my husband told her how Daniel is reading and writing at home when he didn’t do it at school. I guess something about being tortured, hit, stabbed, and told all sorts of mean awful things would sorta kinda hinder the learning process at school! So yeah, totally abusive right there… making my son ACTUALLY READ without beating him or cussing him out or telling him to die… oh wait… that was the school environment!
Health Drama
I called my doctor’s office on Monday to get my blood test results (just shy of two weeks after I was seen) and the woman that answered the phone took my name then said, “oh everything is fine, see you next year!”.
Cue me sobbing the ugly cry.
Why? Because not only am I still suffering from unexplained weight gain, unable to lose weight, intensely dry skin and hair, tired all the time, forgetful, cold all the time, crazy awful periods (TMI but still, it’s freaking me out)… but to be told “oh you’re fine byeeee!” after the doctor told me to my face that she believed 100% I had hypothyroidism as I had EVERY SINGLE SYMPTOM and she was only testing to see “how bad it is”. Apparently my… level… is 22. Level of what? I have no idea. And that my iron is 12.6.
I started taking even more vitamins, now it’s the following: fish oil | probioitic | selenium | super b complex
So now we have to find an endocrinologist for further testing because it makes no sense to have the physical symptoms yet be “totally healthy”. It’s not possible to be this WEIGHT and be 100% healthy (in my opinion anyway). The first office we called had no openings until July. So if anyone has any recommendations in the Chicago Suburb area… let me know!
Family Drama
It was brought to my attention that my estranged twin sister is telling not only my family but other individuals as well that I’m spreading a rumor about her.
What’s the rumor you ask? That the reason she’s lost weight is because she does cocaine.
Yep! She goes on to tell these people (and I have physical proof of that she’s said this) that I am not only SAYING this about her but I’m saying it because I’m jealous.
Uhh… what? Not only is it not true as I actually rarely speak about her much less what she does in her private life but I would never ever accuse anyone of doing hard drugs. EVER. Especially the biological mother of my niece!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see where I’ve ever said anything about her to ANYONE, especially about cocaine usage!
When this all came to light, I cried… because that’s what I pretty much do with any emotion I feel… and now I’m left wondering what it is about me that would make her say such awful things about me. Is it because I couldn’t afford to give her MORE money? My husband and I thought spending and giving her a bit over $500 this year alone was helpful but… apparently not so much.
Then, it gets better, my mother called me to inquire about my blood test results, I told her… and an hour later get an email sent to me, subject line “SARAH”. Turns out? She didn’t intend to email me… oh no… she messed up on the email addresses and ACCIDENTALLY emailed me an email she wrote my sister ABOUT me. Basically sharing with my sister every single thing I said about my health. I could tell this obviously wasn’t the first time they’ve discussed me via email (and I’m sure phone as well).
I emailed right back “you realize you sent this to me, not to my sister” and a day later got an email back basically stating, “my being bipolar made me do it”.
Yep. I don’t even… there has to be something about me to cause such intense hatred of me by my own family.
I just don’t understand. I doubt I ever will understand. I just wish it would stop.
Everything Else
On the non-drama side of life, it’s finally feeling like Spring! I’m able to have the windows open almost every day for a few hours and the sun is up until around 7:30pm. I love it so much!
Figure I’m just going to go back to my old school blogging ways. Which means a lot more super boring and random posts just like this one! YAY!!!
