[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 306858, member: 1991"] G'day, folks. Sharon/WO, it gives new meaning to "it never rains but it pours." We saw footage on TV yesterday of floods in Georgia. Rabbit, can you set up a mood clock for difficult child 2? We used one for difficult child 3, he had to move the hands to show how he was feeling. The other thing we have is a huge chart full of emoticons. It makes a fun poster anyway, so it's not a 'baby' thing to have around. difficult child 3 is pretty good these days at describing how he feels, but we did use it (and the mood clock) a lot when he was younger. We woke this morning to a flaming red opauw sky and transport services shut down. We live under the airport flight path but it was silent. The biggest dust storm in over 70 years, they said. Tons of soil from the Red Centre of the country, whipped up by wild gale-force winds. I posted links to news photos in Watercooler, the images are truly amazing. The sky began to clear by mid-afternoon but it was still an amazing sunset. I took mother in law to the doctor at 4 pm and although the sky looked clear, I could feel the grit in my mouth just from being outside. I tried to give difficult child 3 his maths exam today but I think the sky and the sound of the wind distracted him too much. He's got two thirds of it done, I'll bring the papers with us for his Study Day at school tomorrow (that's two in one week!) and maybe after his Study Day finishes at lunchtime, he can finish the last half hour of his paper so we can hand it in directly, instead of posting it in. We're dropping husband's car off for service on the way in, so it will be easier for husband if we hang around and bring him home again too. I guess, like a lot of things at this busy time, we'll work it out on the drive in tomorrow. Enjoy your Wednesday, folks! Marg [/QUOTE]
