I'd love to but the car would have a bit of trouble with the large pond between us:( Movies and mouse ear making is so much fun! I'm rather sad your ds didn't like Brave it's one "princess" movie I can put in and not hear "Again:cautious:" Merida is the one I can get the boys to get a pic with without any "are you serious?"

He liked parts of it, but it completely terrified him. First, he was clutching his stuffed animals so tightly and kind of whimpering when she turned into a bear. Then when they woke up in the morning, and she spits out the berries because they are poisonous and then she spits out the water because Merida says it's "wormy", he just about threw up. He can't handle stuff like that, so he started crying, but came back once we were past the part where the bear tears into the fish. But then when they got to the ruins, he screamed and ran upstairs and I could hear him just sobbing. So I went up and talked with him and I got him to come back and I sat next to him and held him, and he hid in a couple suspenseful parts, but he did finish it....he thought the brothers were really funny. Once it was over, he was still really teary and asked me to play cards with him so he could think of something else. So overall, not a success, but I was glad he finished it because I was afraid if he didn't see the resolution, he'd get nightmares. That's always been my issue. I have to finish a book or movie to know how it resolves or I will get nightmares about it. But he seemed fine last night. I worked, so I don't know if he had trouble GETTING to sleep, but when I came home, he wasn't whimpering in his sleep like he does when he gets nightmares.

Website says it's made from xylitol,, pre and probiotics, and glycine. The link was a direct link to the manufacturer. They sell it.

Xyiltol is very poisonous to dogs, so if you have a pet make sure it doesn't eat anything made from it. A few years ago a former student of mine was on the news because their dog ate some candy (I think it was gum) that had xylitol in it and the dog ended up dying. It was on the news because the dog had some horrific reactions as it died from eating it, so they wanted to make sure others new about how dangerous it could be.

I was forced to own up to some teenage rebellion from my senior year of high school.

My mom is going to my brother's soccer game. She asked me where the stadium was. I was forced to admit that I hadn't been there since PE, so I didn't know. I did not attend the mandatory pep rallies in Junior or Senior year. Junior year I went to the journalism lab, and senior year, I had a car, left, and went to the library until the normal dismissal time so no one would know.

She's like, "I could have given you a note ya know!" :hilarious: But now we know. I skipped participation in forced school spirit...to go do homework. Rebellion at it's finest.

That's up there with cutting school to go to the NYC public library to do research for a paper:angelic:

Yep. There were quite a few times I called my kids in sick to pull off all the projects, papers, study guides and actually studying for finals. Time management wasn't the issue. Each teacher thought their 'load' was reasonable without taking into account how many hours they were in school and how many addition classes they had and the 'load.' Adding up the hours necessary to complete all the tasks and still pull off good grades, the hours were not there to accomplish successfully. So rather than attend school the lame duck last few days of the semester they at times just stayed home and powered through all that end of semester stuff.

Both of my kids found college to be easier to time manage than high school.

And yeah...pep rallies were never my thing either and her HS coach did not allow them to participate in Powder Puff cause he didn't want broken swimmers. Relief.
