Have I mentioned that Mondays suck? I't freaking snowing. It has been snowing since yesterday and it is not going to stop until tomorrow. Has anyone reminded kind Mother Nature that it is April and the snow had only JUST gone away? And now today I found myself shovelling out a foot of snow from the driveway. This is stupid. Of course that means the school busses are not running but I can't keep the kids home because I have too much to do at work and we are very short staffed anyways. Mind you today wasn't too bad but tomorrow will be another story. Just please do not let them cancel the Greyhound bus to Edmonton or I will so NOT be happy. I didn't get my nails done (and I'm already packed too) just to miss out on Las Vegas because of a stupid April snowstorm.

However, I have had a few interesting phone calls lately. After I talked to the Glenrose last I talked to the refering doctor's office and they said they would resend the report. So then I called the Glenrose back. They had said that we could have a one hour appt with one doctor at the end of the month but we couldn't swing it. Fat lot of good it would do us anyways but still we booked it for this summer when the kids are out of school. So I called the school and told them as much and asked if we could'n please put in the referral for him to be seen by their people and she said it was early still but she would get it ready. And she also asked if I would mind if she called the Glenrose. Go ahead I told her. So the other day at work I got a call from the hospital asking if they could release info to her. Go ahead I told them. Anyways the school called back and they didn't get anywhere with them either but she had talked to her boss, some coordinator for special needs for the province or such and she says he should qualify for an aide at least for next year and then after that will be based on their guys recomendation so I guess that is better than nothing.And if this guy we see this summer thinks there is reason to assess him further then the Glenrose will do the assessment but I am not going to hold my breath. I'd pass out and miss my plane for sure.

Is another day. Another chance to complete those things that didn't get done today or yesterday or even the day before. Tomorrow I have a meeting at the school to decide what to do next about Cameron. The Glenrose has again told me that they will not do the two day assessment on him, they believe there is nothing there for them to find. He has already had all sorts of tests done by individual doctors that say he has all types of delays and such. What I want to know is why and how they all relate to one another. Each time the person testing him is interested in one aspect of him, I want this assessment by a team of doctors so they can assess him as a whole person, not just one piece at a time. I know there is something there, numerous other people see it too but I am not a doctor and I cannot pinpoint it. So tomorrow I will be calling the doctor's office that made the referral and see if he is back from vacation yet and see if they really did forward a copy of the report to the Glenrose. Why is it when all I am trying to do is get the best for my kids all they keep doing is throwing walls up in my way? Anyways, tomorrow is another day to break the habit of chewing my nails and maybe lose some weight.  Because I don't want to end up diabetic like most of the rest of my family which reminds me I need to go get that tested again. Besides I am going to Vegas in 3 weeks and I want to look good and fit into a bathing suit. And I can't get fake nails next week if there is nothing there to begin with. And finally, tomorrow is Monday and from the wisdom of Garfield, Mondays suck. Well I gues that is it, bedtime for the boy has come and gone and he is still out there watching Treehouse so I had best go be a good mom and get him to bed. And me too for that matter. So goodnight and don't let the bed bugs bite.
