I'll try and update everyone as I've just returned from dropping off D.
While I was gone in Seattle, I found out that I missed D's "Meet the Teacher" night. When I asked W about it, she said "you were out of town." Still, I told her I deserved to know about these events. W also said that while I was on the Emergency list, I'm not on the mailing list and she was expecting to be "sent" more information in the mail and would provide me w/ a copy.
It turns out, there was also an information night on Wednesday to pick up the material and I confronted W on that as well. It is interesting to note that she was very nice to me on Thursday when I picked up D. Could that be b/c she knew she was wrong to withhold information from me about my D's school?
Anyway, I was finally able to do what I should have done all along - contact the school - and I'll be put on the mailing list on Monday when I go for D's 1st day of Kindergarten. I know I can get there as early as 8:45, but beyond that, I'm in the dark. I'm hoping W will provide more info, but she knows I'm coming, so I'll be there and get it myself if needed.
Physically, I had another major headache today which cost me the chance to go to the pool w/ D. That is 3 since July 28, so I'm a bit concerned. I did finally get in to see the doctor on Thursday and I was hoping for a pinched nerve diagnosis, but instead got papers for an MRI, MRA, chest x-ray, blood work, and an appointment w/ a neurologist. So, I'll be busy after school for the next few days it seems. I can only hope it isn't something serious, but if it is, I'll fight like Hell to beat it so I can see my D grow up.
I'm blue still b/c I just want things to normalize and I haven't been able to work out since the 28th of July because anything strenuous at all sends me into another headache. So, it is depressing to not be able to exercise and thus not lose the weight I'm hoping to shed.
W on the other hand looks great. I wasn't too chipper today w/ my head pounding, but she did look good. I need to be back to pain free so I can be happy for myself and where I'm at w/ things. I'm going to rest a bunch tonight and try to play some golf tomorrow. I also have another Open House tomorrow afternoon, so I'll take the dogs up to school w/ me and work on putting my room together (mostly filing things that have been in need of filing for the past 3 years).
That is my current situation. My high school reunion was a lot of fun and well worth the trip. I enjoyed seeing people again and marvelled at how wonderful everyone looked. Now that I'm back, it is focus on working on my teaching, then trying to find out how and when I'll get to see my D as we still wait for the parenting evaluation to be completed. Then the house sells, I move, etc. So, if one domino can fall, hopefully things can attempt to take shape for me. I'm still waiting on that damn evaluation and the sale of the house. Both have me in limbo and it really, really stinks to not know my future.
D was disappointed we didn't swim, but she kissed my forehead when I dropped her off and told me to get rest and feel better. I told her I loved her, I'd call her tonight and would be w/ her at school on Monday.
That's it for now. I'm going to catch up on this site, then go lay down for a while and try to get something to stop my headache (it's much better at the time of this post, but still, it sucks to have them come on all of a sudden like they have been doing).
