The big race was today, and alas all did not go as planned.
THE BOY got off to a brilliant start as he placed first and second in the first two heats. From there it was down hill. He finished third and forth in the final two heats. Pissed does not begin to describe how he felt. It was much deeper than that.
He acted out a bit on the way home. Fortunately (for him) he didn’t take it out on his mother. Instead he took it out on the Army. THE WOMAN told me his entire tirade was about how evil the Army is for not letting me be there today. All they had to do it seems was to let me come home today and he would have been a winner.
Guess that’s his way of saying that he needs me.
