I'm Going Batty Today!!

My daughter is driving me batty!!  Poor thing, she is bored!  Can you believe it? 

She played on the computer most of the day, until I booted her off at 5:00 to eat dinner.  Then I commandeered the computer, so she is at a loss as to what to do. 

It was a gorgeous day outside today.  But she didn't take advantage of it.  She has lots of books to read, video games to play, movies to watch, a room full of toys, but nothing appealed.  Her Dad got the guitars out to play; she strummed a little and then was finished.  She is so bored! 

I offered earlier to give her some extra Saturday chores to do.  But for some reason that didn't seem to appeal to her, either.  She's driven me nuts since 5:00; but now she's also driving her Dad nuts, so I have a feeling her complaints are about to come to an end.

I love my girl.  And she is usually very easy to keep occupied, but today she's in some kind of a mood, cranky and grouchy.  I guess we all have our days, even nine-year-olds!

Oh my gosh; you poor thing. She probably is in the beginnnings of adolescence and puberty and mood swings and all. Hugs to you. Lots of fun years ahead!
