We went to the Seaside volleyball game tonight. Robin had really wanted to volunteer and help out her teacher with the game, but couldn’t work up the nerve to ask, and we ended up leaving early. It was an emotional night. No one felt like cooking, so we ordered takeout from One Night Taco Stand. It was pretty good. Nice to have something different. I’m exhausted, as usual.

It’s another marathon Wednesday. Therapy, dance, NAMI, work, all happening at exactly the same time. One more NAMI class and then I think things will get easier. I’m realizing that the kids really need something to do with themselves this summer. Robin is walking around in a clouded funk, barely speaking to anyone except in grunts. Christina sort of listlessly drifts between her room and the TV, also having nothing to say. It’s even boring ME. Today Christina did bake cookies – even tried a new recipe, which came out great. I wish I could think of a project for them, but you know how sometimes you’re so bored that even fun things sound boring? That’s where they are right now. I just want to snap them out of it because you know what I would do if I had the whole summer free? EVERYTHING. Every goddamn thing. These kids suck.
