When they take Winter Break, that's the break between semesters.

6. Oh, I've warmed a bottom or two |
|
The big one is almost as big as me. No Nintendo or grounding is the ultimate threat for him. My daughter is driving me crazy, needing a drink every five minutes, which leads to peeing every five minutes...I have banned all further drinks, but she keeps coming out insisting that she's thirsty. Soon, she'll be coughing and insisting she needs a drink. What a drama queen!

12. Mine got a really bad stomachache... |
|
conveniently the night before school started. He didn't like me telling him the best thing for that is to lie down in a dark, quiet area.

Every Thursday night, my daughter got Spellingtestitis...She was sure she had a fever, her stomach hurt, she had to blow her nose constantly, and she coughed pathetically. Funny, it's been in remission all summer. I hope she doesn't relapse!

They get a million breaks during the year. Of course, it's too hot to go play outside, and by the time it's cool enough (low nineties to mid eighties when the sun is down), the huge mosquitoes are out.

9. So a mom says to her Dr. "I can't get any peace and quiet from these kids |
|
they run around, won't do their chores, and just make me anxious and nervous." The Dr. says "I have just what you need, handed her a rx for xanax and said come back and see me in a week." The appointment finally came around and the mom said "Dr. xanax is a miracle drug." The Dr. happy to hear it had helped and asked, "so you haven't had any side effects from the medicine?" The mom looked very upset and said "you mean the xanax wasn't for the kids?" :evilgrin:

13. Well, I somehow manage without meds |

Probably due to my lack of insurance.

I have threatened to warm the bottom of the next person under five feet tall that I see. I can still use that...My son has four more inches to go before that becomes invalid.
