I had one of those days today that deserves a well rounded rant. Am I going to rant? Perhaps. I really am going to attempt not to. I do want to say this though.
In my life there are so many factors that are out of my control. One thing that is, is my wish to have no drama. Now when I say drama, I am almost positive that I am getting an eye roll as you begin imagining me sucker-punching some backstabber in the face. Sadly, it is nothing quite so poetic.
I am talking about drama in our "Special Needs Inner Circle".
Every day there are therapies, phone calls, appointments, paperwork and meetings. EVERYDAY. I am not kidding. Everyone in our inner circle knows that we have no room nor time for drama, and for the most part that is respected. Except for by one group. I am not going to say which group that is, but I am thinking that we have hit the "enough is enough" mark now.
Today I was told 3 ridiculous whoppers of lies from this particular group... the kind of lies that make you feel like you have officially entered the Twilight Zone.
Enough is enough.
I would love to go into more detail right now, but I dont think I am in the correct mind set to do it with grace.
My New Years resolution this year was to try and let go of some of my anger... but it is so hard when this stuff happens on a daily basis. Some days I want to scream, "An inch!!! Just one inch here! I am only one woman!" Some days are worse than others though.
When it comes to being a mother of children with special needs, I have learned there is a certain way people expect you to act. Meek is a great example of this. I am not meek. I am patient but I am not meek, but I think that folk are getting a bit confused with the difference.
I am a mother of three children with special needs and I am beginning to lose patience.
Yet, I am still holding on to the fantasy that this is not a rant.
