DAY 52

We had a rough day here. We woke up, ate breakfast, went for a walk and then started some school work. It was all downhill from there. Miss Nine was uncooperative and whiny. I was angry and frustrated. Three different times I had to walk away and tell her that we were done with school work unless she agreed to cooperate and talk in a normal tone of voice. After a while she would say that she was ready to try again, but she could not stop herself from whining and complaining. She was doing math problems that she mostly knows how to do, but she kept acting like she did not have a clue. When I finally refused to help her any more today she finished the last problems herself. I keep wondering if it is worth it to finish these last few weeks of school. Our mental health is taking a serious hit.

I also had some challenges regarding a business transaction that I am trying to wrap up. There has been one issue after another and today I was particularly fed up with the whole process. Other peoples mistakes keep costing me money and I do not like it one bit.

One positive, though. College Boy was taking the garbage and recycling out to the road. He remembered all on his own that there were full lawn and leaf bags in the garage that needed to go out. That's a first!

By the way, the cat covered in chalk is for comic relief.
