Yesterday Afternoon –
Me: Taekwondo tonight?
Riley: Nope. Diplomas before Dans.

Me: Is that Christmas music?
Riley: No, it’s violin.
Um, what?

Me: Want ice cream?
Riley: Yes, please. I’ll let the police handle the murderers.

You know what is worse than toddlers refusing to eat healthy food?
Your Teenager telling you they will only eat locally sourced, responsibly harvested, non-peanut, non-meat products.
We can eat: pasta, sun butter & jam, and salad. That Is All!

My little nerd may be blossoming into a full blown Geek!
*HOPE*

Today the Pharmacy insisted I was giving the wrong birth date for my daughter.
Pharmacy: “That’s not the date we have on file. Nor is it the date your insurance has on file.”
Me: “Well, I Was There. I’m pretty sure I’m correct.” lol

Rehearse with Riley what they are to say if she is sexually harassed.
To help her prepared for it if it happens again.
This morning Riley and I went over things like:

• You do not have to be alone with a Principal or a teacher.
• You can insist on friends being present when speaking with a teacher or principal. (Insist Vanessa be one of those friends)
• You can say “Stop Sexualizing Children.”

“I don’t feel safe with you.” “Stop Sexually Harassing Me!”

• Taekwondo is only acceptable if someone touches you.
• Never be disrespectful. You can respectfully disable a harasser.

School starts in 20 minutes. Lets see how it goes.

8th Grade Dance.
Note the shoes: “they’re more comfortable than my heals.”
Taking large purse. Why? Because it fits a Book! In case of drama or she gets bored, she can escape to the girls room and read. I love this kid. lol
She’s a Keeper!!

Me: Let’s not do this half assed. Full Assed or nothing.
Riley: I think you mean No Assed.
Me: Which ever means wholeheartedly.
Riley: Technically, I think they both do.
Me: Just making sure you’re paying attention.

For future reference Riley wants to name her children Hibiscus and Nova.

Riley: Maybe we can be “Pan-Pals”
Fell off chair laughing.

How my morning started:
Riley was told to change her shirt because the Teacher was uncomfortable with what my daughter was wear.
I told my daughter to return to class.
Ripped into the principal who thinks if a girls outfit makes her uncomfortable she has the right to make a girl change.
MY DAUGHTER DID NOT AND WILL NOT CHANGE HER CLOTHES TO MAKE YOU COMFORTABLE! #MeToo

Riley announced during Sunday dinner that she is now a Week Day Vegetarian.
This shouldn’t be hard since we have been Week Day Vegetarians at home for 6 months, she just hasn’t noticed.
This is more difficult at school since the only non-meet choice is cheese pizza. 

We won’t see Riley again for a week …. or more. Her birthday present finally came.
