[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 140769, member: 1991"] G'day, everybody. Sharon, that's good news about difficult child qualifying for the program. A pity about the secretary position, though. It's the most difficult job on any committee. Marskids, welcome. sounds like you have a busy week coming up. Linda, I hope you get some answers at Mayo. And do drive safely - that's a lot of snow to be falling right when you need to be on the roads. When we were trying to race the snow storm last winter in New Zealand, trying to get to the next town and safety, I had a 'snow sweep' in the car, we each had to pick a time by which the snow would begin to fall. We allowed ten minutes either side of the selected time, but if all times passed with no snow, we began again. It cut back on difficult child 3's and easy child's anxiety over the risks of driving in the snow. difficult child 3 & I had a trip to his school today, for peer support. He seemed to cope, although there was a kid there with big problems with impulse control who kept pushing difficult child 3's buttons. Afterwards we had meetings with two teachers. His English teacher laid down some rules for difficult child 3's bookwork, he's got to work harder and write more. And his Technology teacher discussed the film difficult child 3 has to make (it was news to me!) and we have to get some footage and photos done on my laptop by next week, when he and difficult child 3 will sit down with my laptop and work on it some more, while I have a meeting with school staff. I'm still very tired, but I managed a nap this afternoon and with no need to go out tomorrow, I'm taking a sleeping pill tonight to make sure I get some sleep! Have a good Wednesday, everybody.
