[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 144950, member: 1991"] G'day, people. Sharon/Wiped, the comfort food sounds like a good choice for cold weather. Linda, I hope you get to Mayo & back safely without problems driving in the snow. Sorry to hear kt missed her outing - reminds me of Sunday a week or so ago, when the mobile phone networks all re-set everyone's phones back an hour, for the end of daylight saving - only they did it a week early! difficult child 1 missed church because by the time his phone alarm went off, he should have already left! Sharon/LDM, work then shopping - sounds balanced. For compulsive shoppers, perfect balance usually means a credit card in each hand! Fran, I hope difficult child can cope with the new job. Sorry HoneySue is finding the treatment so wearing on her. We had a totally unproductive day regarding difficult child 3's schoolwork - he was really struggling to stay on task. I finally said, "Do you want to telephone your teacher? Or do you want my help?" No, I can do the work," he said. It's just that even though there are no distractions, I just can't get the words from my head through the pen and onto the paper." I rang the doctor at that point. We talked, it looks like either the medications are just not right, or the dose is now too low. He's sending out a new prescription but in the meantime I'm to switch back to the old medications at the old dose and see if it helps. We only have one school day left for the term, we will see how he goes tomorrow. I'll have to call the school in the morning to let them know that difficult child 3 is having trouble, possibly due to medication problems. The doctor said that the dose could now be low, if difficult child 3 has had a growth spurt. And boy, HAS he had a growth spurt! We saw the doctor before Christmas, difficult child 3 started on Concerta about then. And since then difficult child 3 has gone from 35 Kg to 46 Kg, grown somewhere between 5 & 10 cm taller and his voice has deepened. Yeah, I think you could say he's had a growth spurt! Enjoy your Thursday. Marg [/QUOTE]
