School

YAY we finally got her into another school - Parkwood Secondary to be exact (the same school that rang me last week and told me they had no room whatsoever)..... well when you start kicking up a stink and ringing government departments then suddenly places become available! So we are taking to enrol her tomorrow morning at 9am....... to be continued.....

Haircut

We are desperately trying to get Christie into another school, with not much luck..... it is so frustrating and I am really over it all. I am trying one last school and then I will be ringing the education department.....


She needed her haircut today, and even though she slammed my ensuite door and made a picture fall off the wall and the glass to break (which apparently was my fault cos I made her angry) she has been "locked up" in the house for the last week - she has not been allowed to go anywhere or have anyone over, so I felt she needed to get out of the house, so off we went! It was quite nice just the three of us (her, me and the Pips) and we did lunch and then had her haircut and then home again.


Here is a pic of her new haircut! I really like it - and even though she is a natural blonde, I actually like the darker hair on her!

Wagging

Okay, she has only been back at school for one week, and has already wagged one day (today).

Grrrr.
grr.
gr.
g

Honestly, all I do is give her opportunities to prove to me that I should trust her again and she just throws it in my face every time. Time for some more than tough love I think.

PE and tonsils

I am away in Sydney at the moment with work... I received a text message from Damo saying that he had had to give Christie a note saying that she should be excused from doing physical education (pe) as she had a "sore knee".... I don't blame her, I hated PE when I was at school, faking many a sore knee in my time!!!

Last year she had taken to forging my signature... not very well I might add! But apparently it worked well, at least until she was found out.

Anyway, she stayed at Mum's last night with the other kidlets and didn't go to school today as she had a "sore throat"...... wow, I wonder if it's related to her sore knee..... one has to wonder!

I do believe her with the sore throat thing though, as I am suffering tonsilitis at the moment and it feels like I am swallowing razor blades! anyway I just spoke to the little angel and she is at her dad's for dinner eating vegie soup - she has a free dress day tomorrow at school and guess what? All her ailments have miraculously cured themselves!!! She must tell me her secret.....
