Update - death threat to my daughter, son's condition, etc.

Hey all! I just realized there were 2 comments to blogs from months ago... sorry people - I didn't see them till just now! I just approved them this morning.

So DD1 is getting death threats at school. I just found out about this a few minutes ago. She told me yesterday that the kid was calling her a "psychopath" and "psychopathic murderer" but I didn't flip about that as much as the "holding up a glue stick and his hand, pretending the hand is her head and the glue stick is a bullet, then the bullet hits the head" thing... found out about that just as I was writing an email to her teacher about the psychopath thing about 5 minutes ago. NOW I'm freaking out - though I know this is just words... but still! Nobody should have to deal with this stuff!

We have a major gang problem/hate crime problem in our area (we actually had some high school kids kill a man recently, it is in trial right now) and 2 incidents with little kids bringing in guns to school within the past year... so the cops are having a major push in, even at the elementary school level, constantly having lectures, going to every single class, etc. I have a feeling there is going to be some major problems as a result of this, but I cannot have DD1 being threatened, either! She's only thinking of these things as an insult, too, and it's been going on for a week and she only just told me about it. Ugh.

Ok... so yeah I'm freaking out a bit right now. I sure hope that kid does not have access to a gun.

I don't think I'm making much sense, am I? Sorry.

She also got a sun-rash on her hands when I let her go out for 5 minutes to see some animals that came to visit the school on Friday. She forgot to put on her gloves. She still has the rash - and yeah she just told me about that now too. I even asked her if she had any rashes on Friday and over the weekend. She did say on Friday that she felt like she might be getting one, but I'm guessing she didn't really hear me over the weekend since she has inherited her father's "gift" for being able to carry on a conversation without attending to it at all.

Meanwhile... now maybe this is why I'm completely freaking out about DD1's threat... my husband's cube-mate was shot in the head a few days ago and is dead. He was in his backyard having a ciggy and someone shot him. Why? Who? Nobody seems to know. The cops have the case sealed up tight, even though some people DH works with know people in the police who are very high ranked cops, they still cannot find out any info. What the heck happened to this poor guy?

And DD2 is completely freaking out about all this because for about a year now she has had an irrational fear (well, maybe it isn't so irrational after all?) that someone is going to shoot her.

OK, on to my son - he is still doing better, with that slight problem last week when bad, bad mommy gave him something with a hint of wheat in it by mistake. So... I'm considering that one his 'wheat challenge' and he failed it miserably. No more wheat ever again for DS. We are going to try soy next, but I think we will wait till after Easter for that. I want to make it to at least one holiday celebration this year, and if he gets sick I won't know if he actually is sick or having an allergic reaction and will probably keep everyone home from Easter at my mom's new condo.

Oh and MIL is all moved in now. I haven't been able to go help her again, but she was so well unpacked last time I was there that I don't think she really needs me, to be honest.

And my mom had a biopsy taken yesterday. Ugh!

I guess that's about it.

Is everyone's lives as... um... eventful... as mine?

Oh, one last thing - I'm now writing fanfiction! Writing a Pride and Prejudice story. Wish me luck.

Ok so I lied, I have 2 last things - I finally saw the DVD of Twilight New Moon and it totally, totally STUNK!!! What a major disappointment. I'm sorry I spent the money on buying it!
