[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 205692, member: 1991"] G'day, folks. I'm posting late today, it's heading for midnight here. Sorry I can't address everyone individually, but I do need to hit the sack before midnight. A busy day today, even though we stayed home mostly (about time!). My cleaning day (not good, when it's raining) so we cooked up a storm while the washing finished so my friend could hang it out for me. Of course, it was kept just damp enough to need to stay outside although I slowly fetched in various items through the day - although it was raining, it was also blowing a gale (literally) so the washing was getting mostly dry. difficult child 3 did a science exam today. He had a week to do it, open book, he finished it all. I went through it afterwards as best I could before I posted it to the school - I didn't find any mistakes although it looks like HE found one in the questions. "How long does it take for the moon to go round the sun?" which difficult child 3 queried in a note to his teacher. His English teacher rang - I explained that he's fallen badly behind because at the moment ANY writing task is almost impossible. He's been very erratic with it this year, I can only blame medication (no other feasible possibilities at the moment). The doctor rang me back - he's agreed to a medication increase (again) so tomorrow we'll see how he goes. Although tomorrow is another session with the oxytocin trial, should we? I think we should wait until Saturday, so we don't skew the trial. girlfriend came to dinner tonight - at last she had the material for her wedding dress, so we immediately went to visit my friend who is making the dress. Exactly one calendar month to go! But hey, I'm not panicking (much). Late this afternoon difficult child 3 & I were carrying firewood over the road to a friend's house. They've been burning a paling fence for firewood, while we have a backyard of fallen timber we'd like gone before the bushfire season really kicks in. It was crazy today - the wind chill from the gale was really bad, I was in full winter snow gear, down jacket and double beanie with ear flaps, thermal underwear and long ugg boots. Bizarre!
