My son did some work this morning on his writing. I feel good about it.. I need to implement some kind of reward for him. Not sure what kind. I feel better about what is going on and rods sister is helping kyle to. Everyone says not to worry as the school system is not the same as I was a kid. So I am just doing my best. I am asking kyle to do his best. I don't think I will be sending him to bed every time he dose not want to sound out words. I don't feel good about it. I need to feel good about what I am doing and I don't think the negative is working very well. All in all its been a very good day!!!!

 
Well, Its morning and I managed to mess up my webpage.. I bet other people have been there too LOL. I need to get ready for the day. Its a nice day not to hot or tooo cold. My son wants a bacon sandwich for breakfast. Rod is asleep and coming off grave yards. Oh what fun (grin). I guess I should call a friend of mine to see what she is up too.

 
I Just got back from taking my son to school. I asked him this morning why he does not want to sound out words. He did not say anything. His dad said I am going to listen to you read today. I don't have the tools to do this as I have Dyslexia myself. I was not taught how to read like this. When I was a kid the teachers would put me in the corner and say I was retarded. By the third grade they figured out that I had a learning disability. So everyday they would send me to a teacher for an hour a day one on one to teach me how to read and write. I was a mess. I guess this is why I am stressing over this. Afraid the same things will happen. I know in the back of my mind that its not like this today. Funny how the past can haunt us.

 
This day is at its end and not with a good ending. Again my son does not want to sound out words. He gets stressed out and cries. Again I put him to bed with no TV. I walked away crying. I am a basket case right now.

 
just Checking in it's a quiet day today. Kind of enjoying it. I do not get it too often. I feel fall is coming.. The sun is not out today. My weekend has started. I am feeling badly about my son still. Last night he would not read to me or even try to read ya know sounding the letters out. So I put him to bed without TV. I feel so mean sometimes. I do not know how to help him. Sometimes I wish there was an easier way to be a parent.

 
Well, The end of my week is almost here.. I have a big smile on my face. I have a new resident moving in tomorrow.. I will only have 2 apartments to rent. Dang I have to get in the shower.. be back later!

 
Sitting here updating my website. Feeling good about it. Just wish I could find a web set I like! I worked and returned library books. I need to do the dishes too. So much to do and I would rather not do it. I suppose everyone feels that way.

 
Another day passed. Have to work in the morning still did not make it to the library. Too bad there is not a way to mail the books in.. guess that would be expensive LOL

 
Hey I just found this link I was Laughing my butt off when I read it .... Check it out.. The Caption Machine the link is down there on the left.. I loved the kids with the undies on there heads.. LOL

 
Whelp, I made it out of bed today again!!!! LOL went to work. Rod took kyle to school (He helps in a lot of ways). I got home to a message that one of my tenants abandon oil in the county parking lot.. Waiting to find out what this guy wants to do. This should be fun.. Hate dealing with the city. I finally got my shower.. as I woke up too late to take it this morning! I feel squeaky clean now. (grin) Whelp what ya know.. The city just called. Said they gave a citation to one of my residents for leaking oil on their property.. I just got done talking about him leaking oil on ours.. (Hmmm... is someone watching him) Well I will check in later.

 
Well another day done.. Have to work in the morning.. I was able to update my main website. www.sharyl.net or the link is there to the left under the post board.

 
Well, I met with kyle's teacher today.. They want to do some testing on him for his speech. He is falling behind in reading. Kyle said its too hard to read and write. I am not sure what to do about it.. Or even make it easier for him. I have a feeling this is going to be a long hard year for both of us.

 
Its Monday... Need to go and get ready for the day.. Son goes to school. Friend just told me it will be a hot one!!!!

 
Work is done today need to get rod off to work and put kyle to bed. Sometimes I feel like sleeping the whole day.. (That would never happen). With this economy the way it is seems I work more with 4 apartments to rent and no one to rent them. I hope one day they will be rented.. Or my rent my go up..

 
Having to go to work.. not wanting to.
