Thank you dear Bruce, I prefer good sense to good luck any day. That would be nice, although I seriously doubt she can afford to do that. That's one of the reasons I feel bad, I believe the long hours for too little pay are just because she really can't afford to give me anything better, rather than that she doesn't want to. Still, upwards of 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, is just not worth it.

I'm doing alright I guess. Just had a snack. Still not feeling recovery though.

I am always suspicious of good luck myself. That is a long time to be outside of your comfort zone and can truly wear you down. As the manager at her work and a single parent she should be able to better schedule her work and have more time for her family. She should also compare the hours and salary of her employees at work and her employee at home. I realize that babysitters traditionally earn much less money but she should consider, could she get any employees at work if she asked the same as she does for you. I do not know what she pays you but I assume that for most people, the problem would be the hours more so than the pay. That equation is covered in Business 101.

I hope you enjoyed your snack and remember, recovery will come. It won't feel like it will but it does. How was school today?

She pays me 20 dollars a day regardless of if I work 11 hours or 14. Even if she paid me more, working so much gives me barely any time to work on much else. Homework, for example, my next course of which has arrived. (American Government. Barf.)

Ryan:"How much money do you have?"
Me:"About 760 bucks I think."
Ryan:"I wish I had a job. Well, no. I wish I had free money."
Me:"You don't need all that money. What would you even do with it?"
Ryan:"I dunno."
Me:"Ah. Dirty magazines."
Ryan:"Nah. Those are just a waste of money. I mean, you can find that stuff on the internet easily." :D
Me:O_O "WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM?!"
Ryan:*gleeful laughter*

You work at least eleven hours a day for twenty dollars? Dear, give up that job. Just what is your brother looking at on the net?

@Geezer: I intend to. I figure he's just been spending too much time around me, but I actually had a brief near heart attack moment awhile ago when I realized that I was just about his age the first time I accidentally found porn. I'm seriously considering swiping his laptop after he goes to sleep and seeing what the settings are on the parental controls.

How is Dreamer tonight?

That sounds like a good idea. When I was his age we did not have the internet. I had to go to a small store that sold used comics & lie to buy a copy of Playboy magazine. Kids today!

Kids and their new fangled porn boxes. I actually have a PlayBoy magazine, but I procured it from a friend.

School was alright though I was panicky all day. Even though I took my meds. I think just getting back after having a day off might have thrown me off. I was sitting in my lessons and I was contemplating putting my hand up and telling the teacher I can't possibly learn anymore can we please quit there's only 10 minutes of class left. But I figured the teacher would just laugh and probably send me to the office. So I sat quiet while massing my temples. I called my grandma during lunch and she managed to calm me down enough to make it through the afternoon. The freak out started when I realized I had eaten almost 200 calories for breakfast. Then I had lunch and it threw me off even more. I talked to my nutrition teacher and she assured me I was fine. I've lost around 5 or more pounds in a week though. I'm having an easy day tomorrow because my club is having an activity and I get to miss the last two periods of the day. Hopefully this will cheer me up.

How was everyone else's day?

Suzu and I managed to come up with a few things but we wanted your input as well.
We have eat 1500 calories a day
Complete all assignments
Take medicine

I know exercising has to be on there somewhere. We were thinking of using a point system where so many points equals a reward.

I once found my dad's playboy stash *blushes crazily* In my defense they were hidden in the bathroom cupboard the same cupboard we kept toilet paper and the like it. Hmm I wonder why now. I begged my mom to let me look but she always said my dad would be mad if I did.

MAIL IT TO ME ! ! !
That's why I hated people commenting me on KW & Crys, you can hardly keep up with the boards when they're busy & you gotta try to remember to check comments too.
Sounds like you're buy. Your boss will likely be ok.

Ok so Suzu and I came up with a few rules. Like having to eat x amount of calories a day. Completing all assignments. Taking meds. For every rule followed points should be awarded and every rule broken points deducted. Points are able to be exchanged for rewards.
