Day School + Pilates + Star Bucks = Morning of Bliss

Substituting naptime for Corban with "helper time" was a successful, enjoyable experience most of the time. Expectations are getting more balanced allowing for fullness of joyful times and obvious down times. Took a "chill pill" and it worked!

"Helper time" included Corban helping me clean out my ride. Here is the joy he discovered

along with realizing he could actually suction the shop vac hose to Mommy's booty and then run away, which led to him shooting "fireballs" from his hands at me while I pretended to ward them off with my "air hose."

I know we moved to "Kansas" and all , but seriously. I killed a snack last week. This week this appears in our garage and either a REALLY big cat or a SKUNK was in our garage last night. I am a city girl that loves to actually see the stars at night, but could do without all of the critters.

Captain Corban handed out tickets yesterday transcribed on to do lists. He gave one to Landice while she was throwing a fit on the pot. He said her's was a "trouble ticket." HE turns to give me a ticket while I am dealing with Landice and I shoot him a "you better watch what you are about to say" look, and he says, "Here Mom. This is your ticket. It's called a good job ticket. Cause you're doing a good job." I'll take it!!!

I have officially gone a whole week without my chocolate and extra dessert goodies. Feeling really good. Seeing some results. 21 days to make it a habit...I can do it!
