dyk I can't cross my toes



dyk Dek is in a warm bath - he is very specific on WARM not HOT - b/c Abi takes baths hotter than Dek or I can stand!



dyk and Abi keeps trying to go in there, and I keep redirecting her



dyk her room is clean - she was in trouble - spanking - 30 minutes after she got home - standard stuff - we're just down near a zero tolerance

dyk after I disciplined Abi I very calmly (I've mastered the calm discipline for the most part, lol)



I will not allow you to dump out Dek's toys.
I will not allow you to stand on and break Ellie's toys.
I will not allow you to bite me.



She silently nodded.



You will stay in your room with your own things until I come get you.



She has been in her room since, even though I went in 20 minutes later to "release" her and she is cleaning and organizing and her attitiude is MUCH improved

dyk I postponed Dek's horse lessons until October 4th



dyk the heat indexes are just killer and my gas budget is shot for the next two weeks - it's about 18 miles each way - which doesn't seem like much - but I drive (sans lesson) about 25 miles per WEEK now that we are in town
