Bah humbug

My children have been absolute monsters. The youngest has been waking every night @ 2 and proceeds to kick me in the face, side, etc while screaming. He's sick, so he gets a pass. THe oldest is going through the "I hate my parents" phase. He refuses to do what we tell him despite being punished. As of now he has no video games, no toys, no find it books, and no tv. It's just not getting through! They begged for eggs and pancakes. So I make them, when honestly I'm so exhausted from that past 4 nights of staying up for 3 hours in the middle of the night (yet still getting up @ 5 for boot camp) I just want to sit. But I try to be a good Mom, the Mom I never had. Did they even touch a pancake? Hell NO! THe youngest still has a full plate.

Drives me NUTS!!!!!! I told the oldest- who watched me take his plate, rinse off the eggs, dry it, put pancakes on it, syrup, and just before I cut it "Oh, I don't want any" that he will eat those damned pancakes before he puts any other piece of food in his face. I'm fed up!




3 days before Christmas is terrible timing. I've already crossed something off his list. When I think about all the bullshit I've been going through to get the money together for their gifts it make me want to tell them the truth about Santa. On the upside, he can get mad at Santa and not me.

My oldest son has been awful, too. He lost his computer privledges Friday through Sunday, he lives for Club Penguin, and then woke up Sunday morning and lost them again until Monday. I don't know whats up with him, but I wish he'd get over it.
