seriously. You Have Been Warned
Jun. 28th, 2006
Busy stressful frazzled day.
Speech for Jamie this morning - and still short on sleep post-con, I overslept. Leaving me frantically trying to get everything ready in time. I didn't get it all done, but I got enough to get by.
Speech went well, really - Jamie is starting to use again some of the words he'd lost, and since that had been scaring me with the spectre of regressive autism, I'm really glad. We're still needing to get a lot more new words. His yearly evaluation is next week. There was lots of paperwork to fill out. And we're looking at probably needing to refer him to school district programs to start at age 3. There are a myriad of reasons why I am stressed and frazzled because of this. I may try to write up something on that soon. (Although I want to finish that ApolloCon report first, I expect) It has me feeling tense, though.
Jamie's glasses have been re-repaired. This is good. They weren't AS broken this time. It was still possible to have them on his face when we walked in.
The van has been inspected. The Candidate Passes. Now![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
selenite can take care of that ticket Friday.
In both of these I am very grateful for the help and supportfordprfct gave me today.
And on the fun side, I got to have dinner with friends, and then play Chrononauts. It was more fun than I had thought it would be. It is disturbing thatselenite keeps resurrecting Hitler, though.

Jun. 28th, 2006 09:40 amI was just taking a good look at the oak tree in the back yard. I think Karl's right, I think it's dead. Never leafed out at all.
Bother. Karl says he should have watered more last summer.
I wish we could have a BIG tree, anyway, not the little sapling that it was.

Introvert moms
Jun. 28th, 2006 03:46 pmThis is a very important post to me:
http://www.caerdroia.org/116/archives/2006/06/lets_homeschool.html
I'm not formally homeschooling yet, but yes, I am a stay at home mom with two children here, and I am an introvert. And what she's writing about here is really striking home with me.
(Heck, after this last weekend I'm having major introvert needs - I am NOT wanting to go out and run errands today, even though I know I need to do it.)
Lessee - I'm not getting up earlier than the kids, usually, but I'm definitely staying up later. The books, oh definitely. The incredibly strong desire to eat alone. I say that it's because they bug me and want parts of my food, but yes, it's because I don't want to be TOUCHED and I want the alone time. And yes, the computer helps.
Wow, I'm not the only one. Good to know. Going to be thinking about this a lot.
Right now I have enforced NAP time and am going to go enjoy a solitary activity.
