OK , yeah, I know that is a catchy title, but I will explain later. First off I want to let those of you that were asking know, what happened at the meeting we had with the specialists at Dylan's school. It was a meeting with two specialists, Dylan's teacher (Mrs. Miller) and us. We were shown some assessments done of Dylan and I was pleasantly surprised to see that he is scoring either at or above his level in everything. The key is, that he wasn't under any pressure to keep up with other students and take his time. The knowledge is all there but pulling it out of him is the hard part. He is not "disabled" or in need of special education. Whew. But the lady was surprised that I wasn't jumping up and down all excited. I don't want my kid to have special needs, but he needs something and I want to know what. Our game plan now is to give him just a little extra help to keep him on track and take some of the pressure off of him (more time, fewer problems, etc.) Everyone agrees that he will grow into himself and all will be OK. (AND YAY NO AUTISM!!!) Thanks to all of you for your emails and notes of support. I so appreciate it. I need to be reminded that I am not a failure and you keep me feeling positive. Nice to know I have some people who really care and who they are.
As far as the Christmas light thing goes, ugh, I quit putting it off and finally got started on the Decorations today. I have a fake tree but I wasn't smart enough to buy the prelit kind. Two years ago, (cause last year we had a real tree,) I asked the hubby to take the tree out to the garage cause I didn't want to take off the lights and next time I could just plug it in and not have to worry about it. But rather than taking it out the sliding glass door and through the garage door he decided to haul it through our laundry room through the narrow walk way and regular doors into the garage. Of course this knocked off half of the lights and screwed up my tree. MEN! He didn't want to walk through the snow. Well WAAAHH..sheesh. Fast Forward to this Christmas season and I have to untangle and remove all the lights and put them back on. I am meticulous about the lights on my tree, call it OCD. They have to be perfect. So finally, I was dreading this, I undid and redid my tree. (After moving the piano by myself, I am one tough chick!). Took me 2 hours and yes I managed to tangle myself up, but the lights are finally on. I will finish my decorating tomorrow.
Today I was messing around with my play list for this blog. When I was done I found that I had over 60 songs from all over the genre board. I guess I am just indecisive when it comes to music. These are songs I enjoy and/or mean something to me. Anyone who knows me knows that I am always listening to something. I admit there is quite a bit of country, I am a product of where I live I guess. Tends to be what is all over the radio. There are a lot more that I would like to put on here, but unfortunately playlist doesn't have them...yet. If you have any suggestions please shoot them my way. Favorite Song? One you think I would like? One that makes you think of me? Let me know.
