a bad day (not for me)
one of the residents (whom i refuse to give a name cuz she's so difficult that other names should not be contaminated) was in an extra bad mood today. one of her issues was that we would not let her into the dining room 20 minutes early. she made such a racket, though, that we finally let her in about 15 minutes early. she then started to bang her coffee cup on the table saying that there was no coffee. so i held her cup down and told her that it wasn't ready because she came in early, so she would just have to wait. i walked away, and she started to do it again. so i took it away from her without saying a word and walked away. she then started yelling behind me, 'meanie! meanie! meanie! meanie! meanie! meanie! meanie!' and so on.
is it bad that i found this humorous and it brightened my day?

lol that it brightened your day :) (nah, i don't think it's bad;)
what about "She-Who-Should-Not-Be-Named" (b/c "She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named" is already taken by a grad school prof -- I'm sure you remember who;)
i bet she'd be even angrier if she knew you found it funny -- or did she suspect it -- is that why she was so frustrated??
i don't know. but after this she started banging on the door for us to let her out. one of the girls told her to stop, then let her out, at which point swsnbn said, 'gosh you people are mean today!'
lol
nice! SWSHBN and Aiden would get along great today!
How was church? Did you make it today even with work?
i didn't make it to church. i had arranged for one of the girls to come in for me, but the predicted weather was bad enough that my dad didn't think i should drive to church, so i called her and told her not to bother coming in. the weather ended up not being so bad, but i'm glad i didn't have to worry about it.
i don't think it's bad to laugh. sometimes that's what maintains your sanity. i laughed quite often when a certain 2-year-old threw tantrums and took off her shoes in protest
how funny that she would be the one to throw off her shoes
hehe -- is this mel or erma? ;)
erma
but mel probably threw funny tantrums too, right? ;)
sadly i can't remember mel throwing tantrums. probably because i just ignored her and let my mom deal with it.
i do remember her throwing up a lot, though (usually in the vacinity of me)
aww! (haha)
on a related note... all the pix we have of my brother when he was a baby show him relaxed, calm, content... except when i'm holding him -- he's screaming his head off & his face is bright red. :(
(such a brat)
i never threw tantrums cuz i was the perfect child. i did tend to puke on people, though.
:P
