So lets just jump right into day to day life......yesterday morning I get all 4 of my kids up and dressed to go to headstart. We get to the first stop of two at 8:15am, this is where all 3 of the girls go, so I leave Geromy in the van with Gabe and run the kids in.
Deze gets dropped off first....I get in her room and get told that she cannot stay, the school has lost some of her paperwork and her ped. has to redo it, and until they get that she cannot stay. So she melts down and starts to scream. I scoop her up and head back out the the van with all 3 girls to leave Deze in there with daddy too. Back inside we go....Tajia gets dropped off no issues, next up is nomuken....and that is the hard drop off.
She starts to cry clinging to me like she will never see me again. I have to remind her over and over that I will be back at 2:30. I do the signs for 2:30 with her about 15 times, then I hug her kiss and tell her I have to leave, it is now 8:45am, and Gabe was due at his school across town at 8:30am as well (gotta love having only one car)
I head out the door and down the hall to leave. I get stopped by the home visitor trying to tell me that she called me 3 times and blah, blah, blah. I tell her that she didn't call, I know she didn't cause all we have is cell phones, we don't miss calls.
She continues to blab about how she even mailed out the paperwork that we were missing...the "missing" paper work was the 24 month check up for Deze, who will be 36 months old next week! I didn't have time to argue all of this, so I said that I have to leave NOW, and walked off while she was talking. Rude I know, but I was late and she wanted to talk for 45 min that I didn't have.
I get to the van....get my son to school. Call up the doctor to see if she can redo the paperwork that the school lost. Then I get more wonderful news. Our medical is canceled....all of it, great!
We start to make calls to see what went on there...get all the paperwork done and in. 48 hours to get medical back on, but we can drop off the papers for the doctor to do. So we drop off the papers and head home to clean in the 2 remaining hours will we have to get our son. We have to go home, cause we are on empty and our check was due in mail.
Get home, start to clean, hear the mail run...I head out to get our check so we can get gas and food....junk mail, all of it, no check! I take a deep breath, cuss then go on with the day.
11:30am hits and we have to get to Gabe's school to pick him up and to do his meeting with the teachers...the ones that think we are dumb and do not know our rights. We sit there as they say the same things that they always do....they are preping him for kindergarden with 3 hours a day, 2 days a week. That is can do anything they want him to do there. Yes he can do all the art things that they do.
Ask him to count past 3 then get back to me....1 hour meeting, waste of time. Learned nothing and nothing I said was heard by the know it all teachers.
We leave there and vow to order homeschooling things for Gabe over the weekend.
At 2:30 I pick up the other 2 girls from school and come home...finish up laundry.
We go to an autism meeting at 6 pm. We have a sitter all lined up. 5pm, sitter calls and cancels. We make food for the kids and drag them with us.
Geromy ended up with the kids in the lobby for the night while I was in the meeting. The guest speaker is the main one we have issues with at school. She was there to tell people how to advocate against the school in favor of autistic kids. How ironic that she is there telling me this, when earlier the same day she ignored all I had to say!
2 hours of meeting and finally home for the night for bedtime! It was just one of those days when I wanted to yell "whats next". I know it was not a horrible day, but the stress lately is unbelievable, and that didn't help at all!
Hopefully today is better!
