[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 35054, member: 1991"] G'day, everyone. It's after sunset here. Now daylight saving has finished down under, plus autumn is well and truly here, the sunset is earlier. The days are comfortable and glowing, beautiful skies (no rain anywhere in the country today, none expected for at least the next few days). husband just rang - he's late leaving work (again - offsider is off sick) and as he's bringing home easy child 2/difficult child 2 & BF2, it's just me and difficult child 3 home, since difficult child 1 left earlier to spend the next few days with girlfriend. Chooks are fed and watered (hens, for the non-Aussies) and the evening news is on. And guess what? They've now allowed Strattera to be put on the PBS (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme). This means it's been accepted as a fairly mainstream medication. The PBS pays a subsidy for medications 'on the list' so they never cost more than A$25 for a month's supply. For those with concession cards, this can mean even cheaper - A$4.50, or even free, if they've already spent a lot on medications in a calendar year. A lot of families will be very happy. easy child 2/difficult child 2's agent rang this afternoon, she has an audition on Saturday morning, for a short film. She has to improvise (which she doesn't like) but she's been given a few guidelines on what to expect with the improv. No real ideas as to the character, though, apart from "teenage girl". Give her a script and she's fine. Ask her to improvise and the panicky Aspie surges to the fore. I think difficult child 3 is going into educational withdrawal in these holidays - he spent all morning playing Zoombini, yesterday & today. He's also been working on his maths, in between computer games. I just checked the clock - the family will be home in about 40 minutes, so in the meantime I'll go and feed difficult child 3, to speed up our evening routine. I'm so glad husband has the day off tomorrow! He needs it! Have a good Thursday, everyone. Marg [/QUOTE]
