Can she really say that?

My daughter came home today livid with her Art teacher.  She is not perfect but let me say that we are so blessed with such a good kid.   She gets great grades, no trouble at ALL!  So I was shocked that her teacher ripped her apart calling her lazy and went way beyond constructive criticism.   My daughter asks me "can she do that".  I honestly don't know what they can get away with but to me it was rude and unwarranted.   She won't let me get involved "Mama bear is pouting" so my advice was to go be straight up with her.   I said I would walk right up to her and nicely ask if I had done something to upset her or cause her to treat me that way.   Ugh I hate having to let her grow up and fight her own battles but it is the right thing to do.  It is so hard to sit back and let someone else upset your kiddo, but I know that she is growing up and will have to deal with things like this all of her adult life.

Can you see me now?

Today was the day for the eye doctor.   What was supposed to be a quick check on my contacts turned into trying 4 new pair and still not having a perfect fit.  The kids were hungry and grouchy and I wasn't willing to sacrifice my vision for their whining lol. Luckily I came home with a few options to try while waiting a week for the right ones to come in.   The doctor doesn't want to give me bifocals even though I need them and I'm not sure why.   She recommended I buy reading glasses to wear over the contacts?   Now please tell me why I would get contacts just to wear glasses on top of them...really?

On the up side for the day, dinner was a big hit.   I made this new shrimp recipe and it was delicious and only about 7 weight watchers points.   The 7 point cheesecake leftovers from last night are calling to me...torture!  I did 30 minutes of yoga today, it was so painful but it's over with now and the hearing pad is soothing my back. 

Multi-Tasking

Multi-Tasking at it's finest!   I'm searching for Weight Watchers recipes on Pinterest while watching Baby Mama with my oldest.  I lost 3 pounds this week, I was giddy leaving that meeting.   Not bad for my first week.  Today we are celebrating my oldest daughters birthday so I have to plan around this one meal all week because let's face it Cheesecake and beer bread are not optimal for the diet lol. Luckily we are having Shepherd's Pie which actually isn't bad.
