stay tuned for your daily tantrum

David was in full form this morning with a tantrum. Grumpiness in the morning. He got gigged yesterday for have three small holes in his shirt.  Very small holes.  couldn’t fit the tip of a pencil through them. So I wrote a note to the school this morning that we are not able to purchase all new shirts for him just because of a few small holes. David decided to add the letter Y to the end of shortened proper nouns.  For example.  Calculator.  becomes Calcy.  So now we have an 11 year old running around the house talking like  a three year old saying “this is my calcy”.

over-medicated

What part of “you need to give him his meds at 11am” is so difficult to understand? Evidently, the school has been medicating David when he gets there and then again at 11. They were instructed to give him his meds at 11am, because he gets his meds before he leaves for school in the morning. No wonder David has been so good for them, he is over medicated.
