Fasting bsl 145! Still going down! I think I am doing everything right. Eating is a big thing for me. Or how I eat, rather.

Tonight's menu for company coming over: spaghetti squash with chunky tomato sauce and spicy garlic green beans.

Hubby might come home early today since he worked a few hours over night. He is on call again though which means he may not be around at all. I hope he is though.

My youngest son was bullied yesterday. The second time was in front of me while the kid looked me in the face. OOOO that got my mama - Don't you mess with my kid! feelings going. Told my son to ignore him today. Don't let him get you mad or make you cry- which the bully was successful at yesterday. Told him when he sees he upset you then he got what he wanted. I told him that that kid may have something going on in his life making him mad or sad, he may want attention that is good but isn't getting it so he is doing bad things to get bad attention because hey- it's attention to him. The start of it was in music class. The teacher made this bully my son's piano partner. But the kid would only bang on the piano. My son asked him to stop the kid said no and pushed him. My son got mad told him to stop, the kid pushed my son again saying no and my son cried because he was mad. My son asked the teacher for a new partner and told her what was going on. She sent my son into the hall to collect himself and gave him another partner. From what I understand this kid has a bad reputation of yelling in class, wandering around when he feels like it, being mean to people. The teachers will correct this kid only every now and then. My son said he was in the same class last year and the kid was fine, but this year he is so mean and naughty. I told him that the music teacher may have put my son with him in hopes my son rubs off on the kid. Anyway around it...I have the kids name. If he continues I will get with the school. OOO that kid is gutsy though to do stuff to my kid while looking me in the face after school. That shows me he has not an ounce of respect for not only kids but adults too. My husband wants to pick up my son today to see what is going on. I think I gave my son enough to think about that he wont let this kid get to him today. He also has a friend that has his back that knows what this kid is like and has seen what this kid has done. Sometimes it is tricky dealing with bullies. You want to help and fix the issue, but you don't want to make it worse either. Got my mama bear eyes on this kid.

Ok, off to plan menus for today. Doing good with that, kinda proud of myself!
