G'day, people.
We're enjoying an indian summer here, we've had weather as warm as the hottest days in our just-past summer. I had hoped to get to the beach today but it still wasn't warm enough. Pleasant, though. I saw people in swimming. One person, anyway. I know her. Part Eskimo, I reckon.
difficult child 3 was supposed to have an appointment today but he's been out every day this week so far (and so have I) so I jacked up. I rang the bloke, called it off so we could stay home. I'm glad I did.
I'm about to head down to mother in law's and organise dinner - I'm thinking a stir-fry something tonight. She just rang, someone delivered flowers to her and (as usual) didn't wait for her to get to the door (despite my notice - "please wait, old bones don't move fast") and she can't pick them up. I'm curious as to who they're from.
Tomorrow we have to go out again (another reason to cancel today's appointment). difficult child 3 has a driving lesson, and I will do some shopping.
easy child 2/difficult child 2 saw the neurologist today, he's finally lodged the paperwork with the government which will allow him to prescribe her medications. It's been five months now, that she's been rationing her medications. It's affecting her study, it's affecting her work, it's affecting her in every way and I am angry at all the delays. This doctor is great, but we only got in to him a few weeks ago and he's never done this before. It's the other doctor who mucked her around at great cost, that has me so angry. So now we still have to wait while the wheels of administration which grind so slowly (and use snail mail) finally sort this all out. She sees the doctor next Friday, hopefully she'll have a prescription then. If so, I might come out with her and drive to the pharmacy in the city rather than post the prescription in as we generally have to do.
The things we do for our kids... and now it's time for me to nag difficult child 1 to find a new specialist. He'll run out of pills in five months, so he's got five months to find a replacement for the current idiot (colleague of easy child 2/difficult child 2's former idiot specialist). Seeing how much trouble we've had so far, we'll probably need all of that five months.
Enjoy your Friday.
