It never rains, it pours.....

Just when you are laughing up your sleeve at every one else with sick kids (because yours are all SOOOO healthy and rarely get ill, yeah right)..It happens. Mr 2 Almost 3 has a cough and runny nose; it's know as post nasal drip, the mucus runs down the back of the throat causing a cough..TOO MUCH INFORMATION..BAD LUCK!!! Miss 8 who never is ill, came home Friday from school..Did not want to go swimming !!!!! And had a headache and fever and chills and stayed in her PJ's all Saturday and even slept for part of the day. She was a little better yesterday but it is now at 0900 and she's still asleep (12plus hours now) and I guess there's no school for her today. I will have to get her up soon as Mr 5 has EIP at 1100 and kinder at 1300. And as the great mums of the know all, be all committee have deemed fruit duty defunct effective TODAY, I have to get to the shops to get Mr 5 something interesting for his snack...I will get him pistachio nuts as they are good for his fine motor skills ( and it will piss off some of the parents whose kids don't eat nuts) But hey, if you take away fruit and the tongs..I have to replace it with something he can practice his fine motor on, don't I ? And you'd be denying him the practice if you complain.

Thursday is Mr 5's assessment for PSD (Program for Student with disabilities) he will miss his AM kinder session but he should be OK as this psychologist has a good reputation. I will be interested to see how he goes....His EIP co ordinator and SP don't think his cognitive level is low enough to get him into the Specialist school..Ideally he'd do a part time enrollment..3 days there and 2 at mainstream.

I also have to try and organise Mr Supamums paper work so he can get his tax done this week. He has papers every where and will try and find them 10 mins before he has to leave. So I will enlist him in sorting out stuff tonight..Hopefully. I'm also trying to get quotes for a new garage door and auto open system. What is it with companies, they think you are going to buy from them without getting additional quotes?? So many will not quote unless you are going to give them the job and the others stuff you about with times to come and quote. So any one who wants to quote a garage door and auto open system, leave a message in the comments box. So I am everywhere and no where today.

Supa, just for you it's really pissing down now. Know how you feel, emailed my son's school today to see if they had the results of my appeal, and it appears that the principal hasn't written his letter yet. I am just too exhausted to Scream, with Ms R;s tonsils and Mr J getting 2 exits in the last week, I am at a loss. Just having a rant, good luck with all you have to go through, we must meet up for coffee one day

Ditto, Guru, ditto and now Mr Almost 3 is vomiting...great..too much info:)
How is Ms r's throat...scratchy and sore(if my memory serves me..was a loooong tome ago for me)
Try going over the Principals head?? unless he's with you on J's PSD assistance. Cut off for reviews/refunding was 15/7 was'nt it? Coffee??? hahahahah when? hahahaha

Brain: IEP(individual Ed Program) are used here for kids with additional needs, if the mainstream teaching methodology does'nt work for them..in my opion the current primary methods only work for about 60% of the kids ..not good enough.
