[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 295128, member: 1991"] G'day. Linda, if you did all that weeding yesterday then you've undoubtedly earned that nap. We've had a fairly quiet day here at home. Last week difficult child 3 spent it entirely on the computer working through a Maths revision software package and this week so far he's been doing a Maths lesson a day, successfully. MUCH faster. Of course, setting up the gumball machine with M&Ms and letting him insert another coin for each section of work completed, may be helping! husband was home today so other jobs also got done - all the trimmed hibiscus from mother in law's place got bundled ready for removal. I should have helped by cutting more, but after the lecture form the doctor yesterday I should back off and stop doing anything too strenuous. THis evening I stopped by the pharmacy to buy a wrist brace for difficult child 3 (so I don't have to keep bandaging his wrist all the time) and also collected a copy of the local paer. I only want the employment section, we're madly applying for jobs for easy child 2/difficult child 2. I made more phone calls for her today, trying to get some legal advice. The gen is - she MUST call H/O and let them know she's being cut off from contact with them. So tonight I rang her to get her OK for me to send in three job applications on her behalf. "Go for it," she said. I reminded her that we expect her on THursday at some stage, if only so we can telephone her H/O together. Now she's not so sure about calling them. The alternative - she will have to put up with the ongoing harassment and will eventually be put in a no-win situaiton and get sacked for it. She will ten have grounds for unfair dismissal, but she shouldn't have to do this. She's increasingly scared to confront the bully because in the meantime the bullying will get worse. I really need to talk to that girl. It has to be her decision, though. In the meantime - here's hoping one of the traineeship applications bears fruit! Tomorrow is another quiet day - and I don't have to take any more prednisone! Yay! Enjoy your Tuesday. Marg [/QUOTE]
