[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 189234, member: 1991"] G'day, folks. It must have been a longer day than I thought - I'm having a lot more trouble than usual, reading the multi-coloured posts. Sharon/LDM, I suggest you take a really good digital photo of you hair ASAP after your friend has done it - that way you can show your next stylist how you like it done. Sharon/LDM, I hope your first day back at work is productive and not too onerous. Enjoy watching the cheers! As for the Michigan game - you'll see more detail on TV anyway. 1DAAT, your book fair sounds exciting. I hope you have good weather for it. Adrienne, I hope difficult child gets a fair go in his spelling tests. Your day sounds like it will be very busy. We had a hectic day - difficult child 3 had a Maths study day today, plus I had a Learning Team meeting at the same time. Actually, I had my meeting starting half an hour later - a good thing. We got to the school early enough but couldn't find any parking spots so I let difficult child 3 out so he could sign himself in, told him I would be along as soon as I parked. Wouldn't you know it - the one day I have a lot of folders to carry, is the day I have to park a long way away! The Learning Team meeting went well. The school receptionist assured me difficult child 3 had signed in without fuss and gone off to the class. But halfway through the meeting, difficult child 3 rang me on the mobile phone - where was I? I thought he was getting anxious, but it turned out a few teachers were looking for the meeting and asked difficult child 3 where I was! We had a good turnout - all but one of difficult child 3's teachers were there, even ones who hadn't been expected. They all said how well he's doing, but understood why we needed to meet, to modify the work and put strategies in place for when he's struggling with a task. They will reinforce with their letters to him - he should telephone his teachers whenever he has a question, or feels the work is too difficult. A couple of teachers left with me at the end of the meeting, to go and be introduced to difficult child 3 who they'd not yet met. One of the quirks of correspondence school! After that finished, difficult child 3 & I drove towards home and stopped at various places along the way to run some errands and do some shopping. I had finally booked the CT scan the doctor ordered a few weeks ago, it was done very quickly but we had to wait two hours to collect the pictures, so we got our weekly grocery shopping done too. We were trying to get home earlier, difficult child 3 had a playdate but we just had too much to do. Maybe tomorrow? It's going to be a busy weekend - I have to go back out for a meeting, then again out on Sunday for a gardening show. I just hope I still have the energy... Enjoy your Friday, everyone. Marg [/QUOTE]
