I’ve been knitting and crochetting like crazy, and as fun as that sounds, sometime it feels kind of pointless because seriously, what am I going to do with the stuff that I’ve made……who wants to buy little sweaters and stuff going into the summer.
I do have plans to maybe go and sell at aa craft fair in the fall/winter, but it does feel kind of pointless right now – this is aside from the fact, that I just like to do it.
I just posted an update from Momma about Chris over on the other blog, and please forgive the picture where it looks like he’s giving you “half a bird” – I wanted to put in a picture of him, and that was the most recent one that I have that looked even half decent….although that might e a bit of a stretch….just get lost in those blues.
J has an appt with Dr. Cathy today and the most exciting thing that I can tell you since the last time we went is that “sometimes” he sleeps better, and…….his teacher has mentioned that he’s not quite as fidgity as usual, but I had so hoped for a bigger or more drastic result of this last set of “stuff” that we’ve tried.
It looks like we are going to be giving the Ritalin a try, although I am just struggling so hard with it.
Although, I will admit that I’m just so tired of the randomness of everything and of HOW MUCH EFFORT we have to put in just to barely stay afloat, and honestly – it doesn’t really feel like we are even floating most days.
I’m not saying that we are giving up and just putting him on some drug to try and make things easier for us…..it’s one of the things that we are willing to try to see if it will help him. He got in a fight at school yesterday, and I question why we didn’t hear about it before today, but he was upset with kid B because he was picking on kid A, and inrrationally he chose to try and defend or right the wrong in a situation that had nothing to do with him and……he got in trouble….it’s that kind of randomness that gets him into trouble….good intentions, but bad choices….really, that wasa terrible, terrible example of some of the things that he does, but I’m not going to delete….only moving forward….
So, we’re going to talk to the Naturopath about where to go from here……and there’s a more than lilkely chance that we’ll be ordering up some Ritalin over the weekend……yikes!
I could cry….I’m okay, but it’s stressful…I won’t lie.
So, How’s your day going?
ps….I got a comment from Caroline last post, and I just wanted to say, that while I’m not blogging for the comments, it sure is nice to know that there is someone out there on the other side of my computer screen, and I appreciate hearing from you…so Thanks!
