Day #41

February 21, 2013

Bad mom: kid stayed late at dance, didn't get home until after 9:00, went to bed well past her bedtime, and ate pretzels, yogurt and Mt Dew for dinner.

Good mom: kid's private lesson was to work on stretching, proper form, and more stretching so she doesn't hurt herself

Proud mom: kid finished all her homework before dance class

Amused and perplexed

Kid had to do a peer review of her essay. One of the boys saw her at her paintball party and knows the kid is "rough and tumble" whereas he was playing paintball and was worried about ruining his shoes. Another kid was just a tool and critiqued her use of commas. The third boy told her that she was basically full of crap. She pointed out that he didn't do the assignment correctly and that he failed at being "Asian". Considering that she is an all around American mutt, I suppose that she can get away with saying that. Then again, she calls some people Wazzes... White asses. I don't know if she is being racist, politically incorrect, or making a mockery of herself...

Sleep deprived

Good mom: took kid to dance class in the AM and let her stay afterward so she didn't have to go grocery shopping.
