Morning Roundup: Knee-Deep in the Boo-ray Edition
Mike Wise's description of the incident that has led to Gilbert Arenas' Waterloo is amazing.
A brief-as-possible summary:
- Javaris Crittenden loses ±$1,100 to JaVale McGee in a game of "Boo-ray." Arenas somehow gets involved in a resulting dispute.
- Arenas threatens to blow up Crittenden's car (he is smiling). Crittenden (no word on his facial expression) threatens to shoot Arenas in the knee.
- Two days later, Arenas lays out a selection of guns in Crittenden's locker, with a note reading "choose one." He explains to Crittenden that if he'd like to shoot him, this would facilitate the process.
- Crittenden, unimpressed with the selection of weapons, produces his own gun and loads it while singing.
- Arenas laughs and begins repeating "Look at that little shiny gun." Teammates who were watching begin to make excuses and scram.
CONCLUSION: The media is to blame.
- New Redskins coach! I can't remember the last time I was so excited. Oh wait, I totally can.
- TABLETS WILL SAVE MEDIA. (1.) (2.) Obviously.
- IRONY ALERT: Chris Dodd's retirement may necessitate a bailout of the Democratic Party. I TOLD YOU IT WAS IRONIC.
- CLOSER TO HOME: Metro Photoshop shenanigans (a propos of not much, I live for the day when I can use "Shanahaninanigans" in a headline). A long-overdue blog about conditions on the Rock Creek trail (my report: a little heart-stopping at night in the fitness-trail corridor, especially when you have to ride on the ridge because the path is too icy and good luck not thinking about that poor guy who died in the creek recently). And: Does D.C. want to be a "transit city"?
BIKE COMMUTING CORNER: If you have access to a mountain bike, this is a good time to use it. It's very slippy out there.
Thank you for reading this. Have a rocking Thursday, and use those contact buttons!

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can't pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that "the buck stops here." Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

I'm not sure if this is in the right spot...
I've boarded my horse, Wildfire, at the same place for 2 years now. He loves it there and has a beautiful "girlfriend", Libby. Libby's owners literally never come out and see her. Her hooves are in horrible shape and her teeth are quite overgrown. Nobody likes her because she's really moody and can be downright nasty and dangerous to be around. The past several months my mom and I have been spending quite a bit of time with her and we are the only people she seems to like. She runs away from anyone else but runs to us. She's a kicker so you have to be really careful where you stand and you can't touch her hips or back legs. She also bites and head buts really hard. The last time she bit me I was grooming her and when I looked away she bit my shoulder. It didn't break the skin, she just grazed it. Yesterday tho my mom picked a tick off of her side and Libby jerked around and bit my mom's side really hard and would not let go. It broke the skin and my mom has a massive bruise and teeth marks.
I'm going to be moving next month and will be taking Wildfire with me once I get a fence up. I'm going to be getting him some friends and for awhile I was wanting to buy Libby. There's a couple problems with that: I'm going to be boarding horses at my new place and I would hate to have her hurt a boarder. Also, I'm going to be starting a family and she could seriously hurt a child.
It breaks my heart to think about leaving her because once we're gone, she won't have Wildfire and she won't have any people to pay attention to her.
Deep down I know it's for the best to not get her but I still think "maybe it could work..."

You have your baselayers, tights, a shell, thermal shoe covers, and headband to keep your core warm on that blustery winter ride. You are ready for some base training: Or are you? Did you remember your hands? Nothing ends a ride faster than the pain of fingers so cold that they won't bend to shift or, worse, brake. The Sugoi RS Zero Gloves will keep your fingers from freezing on those cold, dry winter rides.
This full-finger design has been sewn with a pre-curved shape to increase comfort as well as provide a better interface with handlebars for braking and shifting. Gripper graphics on the fingers keep your hands from sliding, and padding on the palms increases comfort for long winter rides. The back is lined with an 80g Thinsulate liner for insulation from the cold, while the whole shell is water and wind resistant. Reflective accents increase visibility for low light and nighttime riding.
The Sugoi RS Zero Glovescome in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large and in the colors: White/black and Black/black.

- Familiarity:I returned this product before using it
I ordered these gloves because of the price and the brand name. The sizing chart stated I would take a size large but as a previous reviewer stated they were too small. I wish I had read the reviews before ordering them. I still gave a rating of 3 stars because the quality was very good.
Ignore the size chart
- Familiarity:I returned this product before using it
According to the size chart, I'd take size L; after reading the reviews, ordered an XL, Could barely get my hand into the glove and it was uncomfortable. Order at least two, if not three, sizes larger than indicated. If you have large hands, look elsewhere.

Mashed Potatoes Recipe
Mayonnaise is the secret behind these comforting spuds from Waynesboro, Tennessee's Brenda Pulley. Not only are they special enough for company, but they're a cinch to whip up on weeknights. Try a batch tonight and use what's left in the next two recipes.
- 3 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup butter, cubed
- 3/4 to 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain.
- 2. Place potatoes in a bowl; beat until smooth. Add the mayonnaise, butter, salt and pepper; mix well. Refrigerate any leftovers. Yield: 5 cups.

Lyric Meaning
If you come around Q on some fuck sHit he ain't gon Hesistate to lick sHots and lay a nigga down. The onomatopoeia "rat tat…" emulates a gun firing.
In addition, there's wordplay on the gun getting "drawn" since getting "tatted" means getting tattoed, which is basically drawing on skin.

Google Removes News Snippets From Complaining Publications In Germany; Publications Claim It's 'Blackmail'
Oct 2nd, 2014 @ 2:47pm
Brilliant stupidity
Publishers have the option of excluding their articles from Google News. But they do not want to exclude. Rather the publishers want Google to pay them to include the articles. Google does not want to pay, so includes only a link to the article instead of a snippet. Publishers that do not demand compensation have snippets in the news articles. All seems well.
But now, the publishers claim that Google is "discriminating" against the publishers demanding payment because the snippets are not shown. Yup, damn straight they are. They're only including snippets when they can do so without incurring additional cost. What sense of entitlement these publishers must have to demand that Google present its search results in ways the publishers prescribe and compensate the publishers for the privilege of doing so. The sad part is, the German government is so obsessed and blinded with anti-Google fury that the German leaders seem ready to force Google to present only state-approved search results while paying legacy, non-adapting corporations for collecting free traffic while failing to innovate.
It's beyond stupid. I read articles like this and can only conclude that German legacy publishers have essentially given up and now are enlisting the power of the state to support their failed, legacy business model at the expense of German's own citizens and their own freedom to search. Maddening. It is jolly to read so many articles produced by legacy publishers repeat the contradictions of their lobbyists whilst never pointing them out. That must be its own special kind of torture.

Baseball Is Back! Too Bad I Still Can't Watch My Local Team On My MLB.TV Subscription...
Apr 1st, 2014 @ 10:28am
The put down of the current business model for baseball is way too pat. The Dodgers will reap something like $425 million/ year (!!!) for their current local TV deal. They are able to do so because they are collecting probably $3-4/month from nearly every cable subscriber in Greater Los Angeles (at least, that's the plan).
Compare that to $10/month from only the most ardent fans. Making the $10 package freely available would mitigate the incentive the strongest fans have to pay upwards of $100/month to cable companies just to watch the Dodgers. Without those hopeless fans getting cable just to watch the Dodgers, I reckon the amount cable companies would be willing to pay would drop more than 50%.
Exclusives have always come at a premium in entertainment, and baseball is no different. The policies suck for fans and may harm the sport in the long run as fans lose interest, but in the short-to-medium term there is no rational way the Dodgers would earn $425 million/ year for local TV rights if the new Dodgers cable channel did not have an exclusive. Back of the math reveals that pretty quick, with probably about 10 million households, the Dodgers/ MLB would need to collect $42 from each household. Since the package runs about $130/year, they would need fully 1/3 of all households to sign up for the MLB streaming package. That's simply not going to happen.

How To Solve The Piracy Problem: Give Everyone A Basic Income For Doing Nothing

How To Solve The Piracy Problem: Give Everyone A Basic Income For Doing Nothing
Dec 27th, 2013 @ 6:45pm
It's about the math
Subtraction: 314 million people. Less 74 million children. That's 240 million adults.
Multiplication: 12 months a year. $2800/month. That's $33,600/year.
Multiplication: 240 million adults. $33,600/adult/year. That's a mere $8.064 trillion/ year.
Addition: $8.064 trillion in new benefits. $3.539 trillion in the 2012 budget. The new budget is now $11.603 trillion.
Division: $11.603 trillion divided by $3.539 trillion. The new budget is 3.28x the old budget.
Division: The US Gross Domestic Product is about $17 trillion. Glyn's simple plan to curb piracy would merely result in the US budget consuming just 68% of the US gross national product.
Final answer: this is one of the more absurd proposals ever to appear in Techdirt. Hopefully I'm simply missing the Swiftian subtlety & this is not actually a call for the US to more or less impose full-fledged socialism in order to solve what is, by most accounts on Techdirt & elsewhere, a mosquito of a problem. Tactical nukes seem a bit of overkill, don't they?

Megachurch's Anti-Vaccine Stance Results In God's Measles-y Wrath
Sep 8th, 2013 @ 12:34pm
Re: Re: What are the odds an outbreak would strike there?
Maybe insightful, but wrong. You need to divide by 6, since the CDC stats are for the full year. So the death rate among the general population over 60 days is 0.7995%/365*60= 0.131%. Which is pretty damn close to the 0.1186%. Demonstrating pretty clearly that there is no obvious correlation between vaccination and near term mortality.
I reckon the difference could be chalked up to many people near death would not be vaccinated when otherwise they would be. Of course, there are many other convoluting factors-- the elderly are more likely to get the flu vaccine and have higher mortality. Ditto very young children. The least likely to be vaccinated are healthy folks in 20s, 30s, 40s. Who also have among the lowest mortality rates.
But we agree on on thing, the OP's assertion is laughable.

NSA & GCHQ Covertly Took Over Security Standards, Recruited Telco Employees To Insert Backdoors

Re: Re: This may not be the popular opinion here...
Right. Which is why the NSA needs to stick strictly to its mission of being a foreign intelligence agency. The NSA should never spy on domestic communications, and they should never share that information with law enforcement unless it relates to a foreign/ terror threat.
It is unclear if the NSA, as an organization, is capable of sticking to their assigned mission.

NSA & GCHQ Covertly Took Over Security Standards, Recruited Telco Employees To Insert Backdoors
Sep 5th, 2013 @ 1:08pm
This may not be the popular opinion here...
See, this is a good example to use to explain why I am personally torn on some of these matters. And also reveal how some of the more extreme NSA actions have put "good" parts of the program in trouble.
Personally and in theory (because the practice have proven the theory moot), I don't have a problem with the NSA having the capability of digging into any communications. My issue with the NSA has been how they have been exercising that capability-- with no oversight, no accountability, not even auditing. Storing vasts amounts of data, and using even the most tenuous excuse to collect & store more data even when a plain reading of the lie makes it clear that the NSA is spying on those they're prohibited from spying upon.
There are good reasons for the NSA to have this capability, and if properly used could be properly employed to find the bad guys. Instead, we see the NSA abusing this power (which may, I concede, be an inevitable outcome of the program) to simply enlarge the haystack. As a consequence, the NSA ability to dig into any & all communications will be hurt, even as the haystack grows in other ways. Meanwhile, all the needles will have moved elsewhere.
If the NSA wasn't so broadly overreaching elsewhere, I'm not sure that leaking this information *alone* would serve any purpose other than to harm the NSA's ability to perform its mission. However, we know how far beyond its mission the NSA has crept, and this simply provides more evidence that the NSA can crack just about any data on the internet.
The program is brilliant in a way, and if they were just using it to narrowly target foreign or terrorist agents acting against the US, as a citizen I would support the program. In light of the whole mess, it's just more evidence that the NSA wants to vacuum up everything. Laws be damned.

Did Ed Snowden Actually Write His Latest 'Statement'?
Jul 1st, 2013 @ 5:01pm
This is going to sound like a cheap shot
but I think we're all witnessing the ongoing mental breakdown of Edward Snowden. From joining an NSA contractor with the goal of stealing state secrets, to his half-planned attempt to flee, to his embracing of Russian autocrats and Wikileaks provocateurs, it looks like the progression of someone who is having difficulty staying sane. His self-created situation has only exacerbated and accelerated the process.

U.S. Policies Must Help Prevent Genocide and War Atrocities
War atrocities don't happen in a vacuum – they happen when no one steps in to stop them. Current policy and government bureaucracy leaves the U.S. ill-equipped to prevent mass atrocities and genocides.
While President Obama has taken some necessary steps to address these issues, the US must do better by building early warning systems, initiating programs that tackle the root causes of conflict and supporting preventive peacekeeping initiatives that can make a difference for those living amidst conflict.
Tell President Obama: there is no place for war atrocities in our world.

21 April 2006
Ten years on from Liverpool first ever Youth Cup success the Reds were at it again, surviving a second-leg onslaught to see off Manchester City at Eastlands.
John Owens' side went into the clash leading 3-0 from the first-leg after goals from Robbie Threlfall, Ryan Flynn and Miki Roque gave them a commanding advantage in front of a crowd of 12,744 at Anfield.
It should have made the return match little more than a formality but, boosted by the return of first-team sensation Micah Richards, City turned the tables on Liverpool and a Danny Sturridge double almost inspired a sensational Istanbul-style comeback for the hosts.
However, the Reds rearguard stood firm through a combination of luck and heroic defending and they held on to clinch a famous 3-2 victory on aggregate.
Academy director Steve Heighway admitted he was relieved man at the final whistle and paid tribute to the character of his youngsters.
"It was a tough night for us and it feels like we lost almost because City battered us tonight but the boys came through in the end," said Heighway.
"I was under no illusions whatsoever going into the game and I felt we would have to score a goal to win it as I could see City scoring goals. The fact that we didn't score but still won pleases me because they were the better side.
"We kept getting forced backwards and they were winning every header and all the second balls and it was like 15 against our 11 at times, but there is something special about these kids of ours."
He added: "It is definitely a case of relief after this victory as if the game had gone to extra-time I couldn't have seen us coming back from that. It was a very dramatic final with a lot at stake but I'm just really pleased that our lads came through.
"I said to the boys it reminded me of when we won the UEFA Cup in 1973 against Borussia Moenchengladbach. We were 3-0 up from the first leg at Anfield but they battered us in Germany and won 2-0 but we held on to win the cup."

I can't tell you how many eye brightening products I've tried. Hey, sometimes I'm working on four hours rest and I need a little something to make me look fresh and semi-awake and of course, even if I fail to admit it most days, old age has a way of creeping it's way under my eye area so anything to erase both sleep deprivation and old age is a plus for me.
My next venture into a new eye awakening experience starts and begins with the new Tarte Rest Assured Brightening Wand.
Yes, please, I'll take one if you promise it'll wake up these weary, old eyes.

For anyone keeping score
On Wednesday, June 18, 2014, the Life in Our Lane finally returned to normal. Allow me to fill you in.
Two weeks ago–Thursday to be exact–Bubba came home from school and told me his tummy hurt. He'd spent the afternoon playing outside, running races, and having fun at field day. I suspected that he was just over-tired and way too hot–Big State has some pretty intense heat around this time of year. When it was time to eat, he told me, "I want to eat my dinner, but my stomach hurts." He sat at the table, picked at his food, and finally asked to be excused to the shower. Unusual, but not unheard of.
After the shower, he went to bed. From bed, he began yelling, "OW, OW, OW!!!" I really need to make an aside comment here. The OWs sounded, well, super-fake. He wasn't crying. He wasn't any particularly weird shade. He was just yelling. Because of our history of lying about illnesses in the past, both Daddyman and I figured he was probably faking again. But it continued, off and on, for over an hour. When I finally went up to bed, I asked him if he wanted to sleep with me. His answer was a tiny yes. Very unusual.
Bubba lay in bed with me, occasionally yelling ow but mostly staying still. This lasted until 10:00 or so when he vomited for the first time. Then he threw up several more times. Every time was more violent than the last. After the third time, I suggested the hospital. No go. Bubba was NOT going to the hospital. Until he'd thrown up about 8 times with no relief in sight. Then he changed his mind. Around 12:45 I told him to get his shoes, we were going. His response? "Yes. That would be good, I think."
We rolled into the local ER just before 1:00. They started an IV and decided to do a contrast study. He downed about 1/2 of the contrast solution before he puked it back up. In the meantime, he received phenergan for nausea and demerol for pain. Neither one worked. His CT scan suggested that my poor little boy had an obstructed bowel. A surgeon was contacted–Dr. Cool–who wanted a NG tube passed. Ever helped with one of those? Me neither until that very time. Let me just say that the actual process is not that difficult. It's the panic factor of the 10-year-old receiving the tube that makes it so difficult. Bubba felt like he couldn't breathe. This made him panic. The panic made it difficult to breathe. That increased the panic. Nothing like trying to convince a kid in pain that yes, he can breathe while they're sliding a tube down his throat.
It was now 4:00. A.M. I had been awake for almost 24 hours. Also, trigger guilt because, hey, I could have/should have taken him to the hospital hours and hours ago.
At 8:00 Dr. Cool was supposed to be in. She didn't arrive until nearly 9:00. By then, Bubba was doing much better. Dr. Cool explained that the problem they suspected was a closed loop bowel obstruction. Basically, there was what looked like two pinched off areas in the bowel. Because Bubba couldn't get anything past that spot, the bile and such was backing up into the stomach and the stomach had to rid itself, hence the vomiting. That made sense. Apparently there are a few types of obstructed bowels. One is more common in kids. Sometimes the bowel sort of slips into itself, creating a sleeve effect. The sleeve stops normal bowel function. These types resolve with–Ta-Da!–NG tubes and the dreaded enema. The other type is where something causes the bowel to pinch off and close. The pinched places can be simple or multiple (like Bubba's). There is risk of a rupture. The part after of between the pinches can become necrotic. Neither one of those options was good. I'm now looking at the possibility that my son could die.
Weighed against death, nothing seems that important. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Dr. Cool wanted to do exploratory surgery. Now normally, I'd be all, "What are the alternatives here?" But I wasn't. I was more, "Yes. Yes. That is EXACTLY what I want!" as if I actually knew anything at all. What I did know was this–Dr. Cool is an excellent surgeon. She did Princess' emergency surgery two years ago and took very good care of her. Dr. Cool is wonderful with her patients and death on nurses who don't do what she wants them to do. I trust her judgement. What sealed it was when she looked at me and said, "If this were my baby, I'd be in there trying to correct it." Yep. Mom to mom gets me. And she was right.
Surgery was delayed until just after 12:00. Why? Small Town Hospital didn't have a scrub nurse on the schedule. Seriously? Yes. After talk of transferring my poor boy to Big City Children's, delay after delay, and beginning the necessary paperwork, not one but two wonderful nurses from a town 36 miles away agreed to come in to scrub for the surgery. Because there were two of them, another person in need was able to have her surgery that day as well. God was looking out for us all.
Dr. Cool told us that the surgery would take anywhere from 1 1/2 to 3 hours depending upon what she found. Bubba's only question? Would his belly button be broken? Dr. Cool drew him a picture of her incision. It looped out around the belly button. He gave her the thumbs up and off they went. We went to the waiting room. Our pastor came to sit with us.
Around 1:30, Dr. Cool came to the waiting room. In addition to her scrubs and cap, she was wearing a big smile. Bubba's appendix, although "pristine." was now no longer attached to him as a precautionary step. His bowel obstruction was due to a "extra-long, floppy colon." Apparently it had escaped the membrane that anchors it in place, did a little dance, and flipped over on itself, effectively pinching off all bowel function. Dr. Cool told me that when she readjusted it, it had a big, dark red spot on the underside at just about the point where the suspected obstruction was visualized on the CT scan. He was out of the recovery room and on to the ward by 5:00.
At this point things are a little fuzzy for me. I'd been up for 24 stress-filled hours. There was a brief but heated conversation about who was going to Jay's graduation. Oh, did I forget to tell you that it was the last day of school and Jay was graduating? It was. He was. He did. I went. I don't know if I won or lost the heated discussion. Our oldest daughter drove because I was now a hazard on the highway. I did, however, get to spend time with all three of my girls and–Bonus!–my granddaughter, Kadabbie, the Sweetest of Peas. We had graduation dinner at a fast food place at 11:00 p.m. because there wasn't anywhere else to go! I made it to bed just before 1:00 a.m. on Saturday morning.
I cannot remember the last time I was awake for 42 hours straight. I do not recommend it.
Bubba spent the next 5 days in the hospital. Highlights of those days include multiple discussions about:
1.Whether or not he had passed gas. Answer: Yes, almost 24 hours after the surgery. Then it was a competition between the males of the family as to how much gas could one hospital room hold. Answer to that: a whole lot.
2. How much did he pee? Answer: No one could tell without a measuring device. And because the boy was hooked up to multiple tubes, they brought us a urinal which proved to be a total pain. Apparently Bubba has progressed to the point of health where he finds peeing on or in things other than the toilet to be distasteful. Woo-hoo! Except now he needed to and it was hard. He couldn't pee while sitting in the bed. He couldn't pee if anyone was anywhere around. We all had to exit the room or pile into the bathroom. Let me just say that there is great potential for comedy when 6 people go into a bathroom together.
3. When could he eat and what could he eat? Answer: Nothing at first. We had to wait for the NG tube to come out and his bowels to start functioning. They kind of coincided. The first popsicle after surgery had to be suctioned right back out. But, when he was able to tolerate clear liquids, it progressed pretty quickly.
4. How many times a day he needed to be up and walking? Answer: The magic number was 3. The first time he looked like an 90-year-old man making his way down the hall. By the third day post-op, he was more aware of his soreness, but he was also nearly pain-killer free and moving more.
5. When will the tubes come out? Answer: Catheter-next day. NG tube–3 days. IV–not until we were discharged.
6. Will he ever poop again? Answer: That took some time. And it was necessary before Bubba could come home. We had roughly 800 pep talks. It got to the point where we were considering squeezing him to help! I got a text from Daddyman on Wednesday, 5 full days after surgery, that said, "We have success!" I actually cheered.
For poop.
Yesterday, because I am teaching summer school and Daddyman is not, he took Bubba to see Dr. Cool. Bubba is now released to do most normal summer things like swim and run and play. He's still not supposed to lift heavy things or do sit ups, and even though he detests both of those activities, he really, really wants to do them because, hey, RAD. But he's well. And he doesn't hurt. And that makes this mama very, very happy.
Maybe I Should Write More Often
Life continues without Guy and Yum. While it's actually none of my legal business, the powers that be are keeping me updated. Their parents are sweet, sweet people who lack the understanding that kids require lots of consistent care. They aren't being hurt. They are being fed. No one expects them to keep them. I may be the only person believing they can–if they really want to keep them.
Summer begins here in Small Town in 9 school days. Summer vacation is a great thing, unless you're a RAD kid who doesn't like change. We're revisiting Pee-ville. At least it's been contained to the bathroom. Wall. On Saturday someBubba was given a bucket of hot water with Dr. Bronner's Tea Tree Oil Soap and a rag along with instructions on how, where, and what to scrub. Left to his own devices, he scrubbed the floor and completely missed the wall and the toilet. A bit of redirection later and he was on target…..until he grew bored with the whole job. With crossed arms and tears, he told me he wasn't going to do it and I couldn't make him.
That's not exactly true–I could make him. But I didn't. I just told him that he would have a choice. His choice consisted of how long to stay in the bathroom sans toys, TV, conversation or meals. His re-entry into our world would be dependent upon the walls and potty being pee-free. Bubba was adamant that he was NEVER going to do it. I was okay with that choice. Never is approximately 12 minutes long. The walls and porcelain are clean and fresh.
It's hard being 10.
I'd have to write an epic
Not blogging has become my life. I don't even know why. It's not like I'm allergic to it. I just…..procrastinate. Or think it's unimportant. Or forget. Or don't have time.
Now I have time.
Shortest version of my life in the last I-don't-know-how-many-months: Guy came back with Yum this time. They stayed for 7 1/2 months. Then they went home last week. We were asked 3 times by the CASA and once by one of the social workers to please consider adopting them WHEN they come back next time. No one believes that the basic situation has changed enough to allow them to stay home safely. But they went home anyway.
Guy is adapting–he knows Mommy and Daddy. Yum? For over half of his life, we were mama and daddy. Now he has a new set of parents. I'm sick with worry and grief over this. I'm sick with worry and grief over Guy's leaving–I know what brought him back into care last spring, just 12 days after the last case was closed. I know that God was definitely there that day because Guy wasn't hurt in a most dangerous situation. I know He's there now, but I'd still like to tell Him what to do!
What I am doing is praying that my boys will be safe and loved. And safe. That's their biggest issue. Mommy and Daddy do love them–it's the other thing that's the problem.
So there y'are. We're alive. We're sad. We're hopeful. And we're waiting.
I have no good excuse, so here I am without one
That sums up my missing days. The truth is that I blog when I need to process, not because I think I really have anything worthwhile to say. But we've been through some changes around here that bear updating, so here we are.
The suckitude of my last post has been dealt with in a positive way. Again with the health issues! I am now the proud owner of some unnamed auto-immune illness that causes all of the wonderful things auto-immune illnesses can, but it is totally livable, treatable, and my life will go on pretty much as it has, minus the pain. Yay for Mobic and Lexapro! Seems that both are important for balancing the pain and the serotonin issues. I'll take it!
Daddyman is sick. Sicker than I've ever seen him in all of our 30-some years together. It sounds like pertussis, but it isn't. For the past month he's coughed, hacked, coughed, moped, coughed, and ruptured a blood vessel in his eye. Then he coughed some more. He's had 3 rounds of high-powered anti-biotics, but so far there's been little change. He sounds better since his last doctor visit–a shot of steroids will do that for you–so we're hopeful it will end soon.
Bubba and Flowergirl are in therapeutic riding. He's there to work on his need for control and his sudden rage. She's there to work on her core strength and finding her voice to let people hear her. Both kids are doing well. They love the horses. They love the therapist. They love the helpers. The only thing they don't love is that I am not independently wealthy and can only afford 1 lesson a week for each of them.
Jay is currently yanking my chain about playing football. He'll be a senior when school starts. He told me he was considering not playing next year. When asked why, he told me, "Because it hurts." Later, he came up with a story about this being his senior year and he needs to work on his grades and football takes up so much time. This from the 98% average kid! I think he just worries about disappointing people. Also, his favorite coach moved on at the end of the school year and he's not really sure about the new one. What I wonder is how such an exceptional kid–excellent student, funny, smart, kind, athletic–can feel so insecure about so much with no good reason? We keep reassuring him, but it's like he's got this giant hole in his self-vision.
Guy has returned. This time, he brought baby Yum with him. This is both sad and happy news. His time with his family didn't last very long before it came undone. The boys had been placed with another family for the last 2 months. Guy's needs–medically and emotionally–were a little high for them. A couple of weeks ago the boys came to us as a respite placement that morphed into as permanent as it can be while CPS is involved. There is still chest PT and breathing treatments and tantrums and trips to Big City for medical care (where we've been twice this past week) with the added bonus of a beautiful baby who does not yet crawl or sit up but does sleep through the night, so there's that. I knew this would be the case. I knew I'd be remarkably tired. And I am. I also knew immediately that this was the right–and only–choice, accepting this placement with all of its conditions. That was confirmed for me the morning Guy and Yum arrived.
I was waiting for them on my front porch. The car pulled into the drive and the other mom hopped out, waved at me, and opened the back door to let Guy out. He jumped down and came around the front of the car. His balance is incredible–he saw me and began to run. I bent down. "I'm home, I'm home!" he kept calling, a huge smile on his gorgeous face. He ran straight into my arms, hugging and hugging and laughing. Then, "I MISS you!" Me too, little boy. Me too.
I am a terrible therapeutic parent
I get angry. I allow things to show on my face and in my actions. I yell. Sometimes too much. And I always feel bad about it.
I suspect I am not the only one.
I make mistakes. I back up and say sorry. I try again. I still don't get it right. But I try.
Sometimes the outbursts change things for the better. Sometimes not so much. The last one, just 2 days ago, seems to have done wonders for someBubba's attitude. The thing is that I never know which time is going to be useful, which damaging. And I feel like poop on a shoe every time it happens. That triggers big feelings for me.
Sonny was always different. He was conceived through 3 forms of birth control, a meant-to-be-here kid if ever I saw one. He was ADHD from the womb, bipolar by the time he was 8. It was very much no fun. I spent the majority of the time from 8-15 just trying to protect the other kids from his anger. I sucked, by the way. What I didn't know then is how completely his amygdala hijacked his brain. I wish that I had known. I'd have changed so much.
Today I realized that Jay is a little over a year from leaving home, striking out on a college career. Jay is the one I protected so feverishly. He's a great kid–athletic, handsome, funny, and so, so smart. His most recent grade report showed his lowest grade to be a 96. God dropped him into my life at a time when I did not believe that little boys were ever easy. Yet he was and remains. He is a joy.
When my girls graduated, I was overcome with ambivalence. I didn't cry. I still had others at home to nurture and raise. Sonny's graduation brought me to near tears. He accomplished far more than we thought he would, and he did it in 4 years. It also meant that freedom from the vigilance against bipolar in our home was close to finished. But Jay? I would have him stay forever. I find myself weepy at the thought of his graduation which is still one year and two months away. Where did that time go? I blinked and it was gone. I need to cry now and get it over with so he's not embarrassed at graduation.
Having Bubba and Flowergirl is comfort, but not the same. I love my children–every one of them. But each has a unique feel to them. My suspicion is that Bubba's graduation will be a cause for celebration, much like his oldest brother's. He is often prickly, reminding me of my failings in the parenting department, but I love him. He is also incredibly smart. If we can continue to work through the emotional issues, finding a place of health and healing, Bubba will be fine. Flowergirl will be like Sonny as well. Her little brain struggles to find a place to latch onto in the world of math and reading, but her spirit is a wonder of light and love. She may have to live at home longer than the others, but she will find her success–as will Jay. It's just different with him.
I'm dealing with some issues that are difficult to wrap my head around. I suspect they are playing a part in my current feelings of suckitude. Waiting to find out the ramifications is not conducive to warm fuzzies. Whatever the outcome, I know that God is still God, that I will continue to plod on, and that I love my kids. And most of the time they love me. All of the time Daddyman loves me–ridiculously so. That helps tremendously.
Maybe I'll share when I have answers. After I have time to process. Until then, I know I'm not really alone. I think most moms–especially special needs moms–live in this realm. Right now, the shoe isn't fitting.
Memory Lane
Today is laundry day. Usually that's Daddyman's job, but he's out of town and unless we have a group vote to do the naked thing, clothes must be washed. Trust me–no one wants to actually see the naked thing. Plus I would be too cold and that would make things very interesting. Just not for me.
Something about the laundry makes me think about the past. Is it the multiple items left behind by kids who have moved on? Could be. Or maybe it's just that I have time now to think. And I did think. I thought about a time last summer that I don't believe I ever talked about.
I like to cook. I am not creative, but I do a good job of roasting, basting, sautéing and frying. It tastes good, my kids like it, and Daddyman has gained a commemorative pound for each of the 3o years of our marriage, although I win the weight gain contest. I've grown 3 kids, have a nearly grown young man, and no one has ever starved here. I like to try new things. I am an adventurous eater–I try just about anything set before me, including rattlesnake (tastes like muddy water). In the kitchen I am at home. Food snobbery has no place here. Just tell me what you want and I'll cook it. I may not like it, but I will try it.
Flashback to last summer, Sissy, sitting on the stool by our kitchen peninsula.
"You know what my favorite food is?"
"No," I say, stirring something or other. "What?"
"Chili," is the wistful response.
Being the kid-pleaser that I am, the very next night, with complete disregard to the one-hundred and hell degrees outside, I bring a beautiful chili to the table, filled with tomatoes, onions and peppers from our own garden. A confused stare looks back at me as Sissy asks, "Where are the weenies?"
Yes. Of course. I suck. Again.
A few nights later, Sissy was once again on her usual perch. This is, in fact, the preferred perch of every single foster kid I ever had. The bar stools overlook the stove where I work my culinary magic. Food is powerful, the making of food a sacred act. This is often the only time in the day that I receive any respect from the children in my care. This is a holy time of day, rich with possibilities.
Sissy is watching me chop chicken. I am making this. The kitchen smells wonderful. Sissy is breathing in deeply through her nose.
"I wish I could cook like this," she whispers.
"You can. It's easy–just follow the recipe. You can do it."
"My mom doesn't cook like this."
"She cooks though, you told me she did. Tell me, what does she make?"
Shaking her head and smiling, "She makes chili with a can opener. Also ravioli. And ramen. She doesn't cook hard stuff like you."
I am filled with sudden understanding and a desire to lessen myself in Sissy's eyes. "Before you leave, I will teach you to make this. Or whatever you want. Then you can have it whenever you like." Her smile tells me that I have succeeded.
Except that I never taught her to cook anything. This kitchen time was only an oasis of calm in the fire storm of their placement. She left a couple of weeks later.
News comes to me that Sister and Sissy will not be going home ever again. Their case is going to termination of parental rights. A friend of mine who knows our entire situation asked me if I wanted them back. Oh, absolutely not! They are so wounded and so unsafe for my kids. Never in a million. But my wish is always that moms and dads get it together and get their kids back.
I also really wish I'd had time to teach her to cook.
One random picture, one rant
Believe it or not, this is the picture we had of Flowergirl's debut a the Christmas play at our church. She's up there behind the pulpit. Yes, she's standing on the box they put there for the kids. No, it didn't make any difference at all.
So after feeling like sobbing every time I thought about my baby girl, her "new" info, and her old troubles at school, I made my way to her campus to talk with her school counselor. I really didn't expect the reception I got–warm, friendly, and optimistic. All good, right? Not so much. The counselor wanted watch her to see if her new meds have any effect. The wisdom was to continue status quo until the committee met on Flowergirl's non-progress 2 more times. They meet once every 6 weeks or so.
Here's the thing–there has been no progress. This is not new. We struggled through kindergarten with grasping letter/sound correspondence and reading our little books. We hired the lovely Miss Honey to help Flowergirl make it out of first grade alive. Her epic battles with learnin' have continued unabated since the first day of school this year. And I would bet dollars to Krispy Kremes that the Committee of Might has met at least once since January, but that's the only meeting they have on record for Flowergirl.
She continues to struggle–almost there, but never quite able to catch up and pass. I was too emotional to get angry just then. It took a night. And part of a day. And then I went to see a friend who is the Special Ed Coordinator for our district who gave me some very valid, useful, buck-up advice. Which I took. Then I wrote an email to the counselor saying that I wanted to bypass the committee and get straight to the testing. And she informed me that she'd have to check with the diagnostician (another church friend of mine) to see if it would be okay.
What most of us don't know until we know it is that when you ask for testing, they now have to provide it. Even in my Master's work we were told that the district had 30 days to decide on whether or not to test. Apparently, rules have changed.
Color me totally non-surprised that a couple of hours later, I received an email that actually said, "Good news! The diagnostician says we can skip the next 2 committee meetings!" Ya think? The paperwork came home the next afternoon. It went back to school on Thursday. Now we get to wait for them to pull my precious baby out and see what's what. And according to my Coordinator friend, if Flowergirl fails to qualify, we can lay on the pressure to have her identified as Other Health Impaired (OHI) to get her services.
Peoples, we are on our way.
I am neither proud nor happy. I am just grateful for the help of friends in high places. While we wait, I am trying to help my sweet tiny girl manage her nerves that are taking their toll on her tummy. The Focalyn kills her appetite and gives her tummy aches. The fine bones of her face are a little more visible. She hates getting up in the morning. I'm beginning to believe she wields her declarations of love for me like a magic talisman against the evil fortress of school. I watch as my darling learns to hate what she once loved.
The wind chime sounds you hear are the broken pieces of my heart colliding in this crazy breeze.
Bring on the testing. Soon. Please.
