False @ MindSay 
true

Today started w/ a phonecall from MaryEllen. She says, “Robin just called, A’s not coming in all week”. I assume it’s because he’s been so sick for so long, but she goes, “Apparently, they moved to Petersham over the weekend”. I don’t know what that means (I don’t know geography up here, in my mind that’s a town over from where he lived, but apparently, that’s near Worcester, which is about 45 mins/hour from us), but that’s what we were told. Then she also said that mom still wants him to go to school here, so she’s spending this week tryin’ to figure out how to get him back here. WHAT? She HATES him going to school here; she’s been telling us she’s gonna pull him out for a month.
Otherwise, pretty good day, but crazy busy. We had to escort Z at about 8:55, but no restraint, and all day, all 3 kept 6/6 safe body points. That’s prob gonna NOT be true tomorrow since we’ve added ‘making threats’ to the list of things that are unsafe; D’s going to have the hardest time. Busy day = Z now has art on Monday from 11 – 12, and then lunch w/ the younger kids, I have work with Erin from 12:15 – 1:00, E and D have art 12:30 – 1:30… we’ve realized that if this is our new Monday schedule, there’s a period of time from 12:45 – 1:00 on Monday when there’s no one to cover A; but if he’s gone :(, there isn’t an issue. I kinda hope he’s not gone. For reading instruction, E requested to read out of ‘Speak’, the book he picked for silent reading, and we let him. I’m just so happy he’s reading BOOK-books that are about a 5th grade level, not the 2nd grade text like D; oy.
Today, I figured out 2 of the 3 metal puzzles Claudia brought in. Parker had to really help me with one. At first, he was working on it, and then I told him to do something and that solved it, but when it was my turn to do it, not so muchskies. Hahaa, my lack of spatial reasoning skills jumped to the forefront today. It was nice that John R, our math guy was in there when I was trying the 2nd one, and he said that spatial reasoning is hard for HIM. I’M NOT ALONE :). In the world of Johns, sometimes I think John M, our behaviorist, is flirting with me. Only sometimes. And I’m not sure how I feel about that.
At end of the day, we were walking Z to the bus, and Carly in Jacqui’s class kinda skidded in the hall trying to grab something and almost crashed into Parker and I. I think I said, “be careful, Carly” and she apparently said, “Mr. and Mrs. Parker”. I didn’t hear that. But Parker said, “no, not really” or whatever, and I asked what she said, and he told me and I called, “nope, not at all”. I wonder how many other kids think Parker and I are…Parker and I. That’s gotta be squelched if they do.
UNrelated note, but Family Guy is on in the background, and they just parodied the ending of Dead Poets Society, aka pretty much my favorite movie ever. <33
No matter how much pain they have caused another person and their family, they will not ever admit they set out to hurt them.
Any apology you may receive from them is only under pressure and another form of manipulation. It is used only as a recourse if needed.
How do I know this you ask? ... Their actions reveal the truth.
Like so many of the victim's stories posted here and on other sites, we see that it is common for the abuser to continue to traumatize the victim.
They will file false charges and frivolous lawsuits in an attempt to discredit the person who has told the truth about them.
So how do you know if the person who came forward to tell their story is telling the truth? Because the victims expose themselves and the fact that they were naive and in telling their story they will be ridiculed and lied about. They take a brave stand to get the truth out and help others.
It is not wrong to hold them accountable for destroying innocent lives. The repercussions of the destruction they reap on others can become very serious.
A Story was recently posted on various sites about Megan Meier, who lost her life due to being victimized by a online predator.

Help support this family as they go through a very difficult time seeking justice for the crime committed against their daughter.
Once exposed, the victimizer has to realize that their secret is out. Their tactics and schemes are revealed. The only place left for them to hide and save face is in their lies. If they can manage to discredit the one who found them out and told the truth, then they can gain some self respect back.
Filing false charges is a way they try to gain this control back. They will spend thousands of dollars to try to fight the truth.
HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE.
as a young woman I tried reading the four gated city by Doris Lessing several times. I don’t think she is a writer for young women who think the entire world is spread out before them for their fun. But as a 'mature' woman her words are just the thing that resonate within the mind and soul. This time I opened the Golden Notebook and was transported immediately. and this is following the hack pop writing of Larry McMurtry filled with guys bonding and men who can't commit but dream about the one who got away and who is maudlin and macho and die because of it- or in spite of it- But lessing is about the internal landscape- the place women retreat to in order to survive. and it is wonderful when she describes the "break down" that some women in middle age have ( doctors call it hormones) but it is a profound cracking and dropping of the shell we were forced to construct and now as the shell falls away we are forced to view and learn to love the authentic self. I don’t think I am projecting here.
I had a very good session with the toe fungus psychiatrist ( she is an ice dancer in her free time hence the continued trauma to the toe and the fungus- she didn't tell me this i learned it elsewhere) anyway we were discussing the difference between being considering nice and being good. It was in the context of wanting to be liked, hence one is nice. and I challenged that analysis because I do not feel I must be liked by everyone and I am certainly not always nice. but I try to be good. and goodness doesn't always mean you are nice because goodness might mean sharing an uncomfortable truth or doing the very unpopular thing, or saying no when the nice person wants to do the wrong thing.
certainly all of us have known nice people who often were not good. Montgomery was filled with those women, people who were always smiling even while their husband was having you blackballed or they were going to go out to lunch and slice you apart verbally. so nice is a cheapo commodity that I don’t care to have.
Henry James said" Civility costs nothing and buys everything." and I agree . However civility is very different from the "niceness" I am describing. Someone else said something like being able to judge one's character by how well they treat people who can not do something for them- such as street beggars or door men or someone else's maid or animal. and that sunk in. along with so many little them cliches from my father which turn out to be formative than we like to admit.
so yes, doris lessing is the one for me right now and I am back in the curtained canopy bed with soft greens and deep reds and it's aura is one of peace and comfort and whenever I want I can sit over a bidet of hot water and warm my chocho . that's good too. Right?
The song I'm writing right now is about Pat Robertson and his diamond mining escapade with the ruthless dictator of Zaire. I don't have the energy to give the details, so if you're interested in how hypocritical and vile Pat Robertson is, follow the links below.

The final link is certainly the most biased, but I have yet to find incorrect information on it. But as you can see, this disgusting misappropriation of funds and faith is documented on several reputable sites as well. Before I release the song on a CD, I intend to find paper sources and put MLA citations in the liner notes referencing said sources. No libel, no slander, only facts.
That is all for now. Don't listen to Pat Robertson, and if you know anyone who does, please do them the service of letting them know the exact kind of person they are looking up to. Pat Robertson and his cronies are to blame for many of the problems in our country today, specifically the unreliability of the media. I don't have links to back that up; I won't do all your research for you. Look about; see the devil on your doorstep.
