ok...well, I made a baby quilt for a friend's newborn....progress
Today, however, we got hit by a curveball....not totally unexpected, but still.....as of this morning, DS has officially been diagnosed with Aspergers {sigh}. So, now we start the battle all over again.
School said in the fall that they wanted to take him off his IEP completely....I got them to continue his current IEP until we had confirmation or refutation of the provisional diagnosis of Aspergers that he was given by the psych that he saw outside of the school system. They agreed (after LOTS of attitude and upset feelings and such). So....now we have to schedule another meeting....but I won't bother letting them know anything until we actually ahve the doctor's notes and suggestions for his IEP. Well, the principal and vice principal know, but I haven't notified pupil services yet.
So....I'm so freaked right now...it's mixed blessing.....yay for getting the diagnosis...boo for having to deal with the school again........gah
I have 2 customer orders awaiting my attention, buttons to sew on a shirt that I made for hubby, fabric to press for a surprise dress for DD, 2 crochet projects and 2 knitting projects....to say I'm scattered is an understatement.....but tomorrow I have a one on one beginner knitting lesson to make sure that I'm doing things correctly and not bass-ackwards {sigh}
and on a related topic...the teacher took a threatening tone with son this morning, and I made it clear that this is typical for her because she runs her class with bullying and intimidation tactics - and I said this while we were in the principal's office. He asked to be removed from her class and I pointed out that every time we've asked, they have refused, and with only 1.5 months left, it would be pointless....again, said in the principal's office.....
So...there we go......trying to get back to a semblance of normalcy.....hoping to get back to regular sewing and quilting in the near future.....DD wants a mommy-made quilt, twin-sized to fit her big girl bed :-)....now to find the correct pattern for her....already have the fabrics.......
