I haven’t had a clothes dryer for a long time, you know? The rental police nabbed it last year when I quit my job working at the Kahns Bologna slicing shop. Anyhow, I do fine with the occasional paid laundry facilities and the constant hanging up of wet clothes on hangers in the bathroom on the the shower curtain rod. Plus, I don’t have to worry about that one thing that used to happen to our pet cats. I’m so elegant, ya just know it!

When the heater furnace is on, the clothes dry in a few hours no problem. This week, of course being 75f/25c, there is no furnace on. I had child#4’s and #5’s

clothes hanging in the bathroom and should have moved them yesterday afternoon, but didn’t.

Meanwhile…..
child #5 decided to poop his pants and wipe the ingredients all over the air conditioner that is in my bedroom window. I wanted to die at that point. I screamed, but did Not spank him (I was tempted to give a few paddles, he was stinky, lol!!), then I made him get in the bath tub…

I took a time out for a few minutes, went back and laid out a towel for him and told him to come on out of the tub. Every thing sweet and good :).

I went back to my room and he joined me about 111 seconds later.

We watched some reruns on Nickelodeon

for a bit, then I went to the potty and made a frightful discovery. Child#5 had thrown all of the laundry, that had been drying on hangers, down into his bath water. I need help. I have smoked a pack and a half of cigarettes since yesterday evening, which is 70 percent more than I usually manage. I need plenty of prayer on this issue.

I really would like some family free advice on an all natural calmer downer for children that won’t/can’t focus on issues at hand and/or follow simple instructions. Maybe it is an attention problem and maybe the doctors are wrong when they say that this child’s behavior is just normal activity. I do not believe them! I had to borrow a couple of benzos from my family so that I could get my nerves under control. I have purchased chamomille drops for child and these are not doing much for him as far as I can tell. Perhaps it takes a while to get into his system? Please share your experiences with natural remedies for over active children.
