Ugh, I have to go back to the orthopedic dr, this time for my left wrist. I had carpal tunnel surgery last year on my right hand, and now my left wrist is super painful. My hand is stiff and my fingers are tingly at times. It feels better when I wear my brace. I don’t know if it’s carpal tunnel again, it’s not the same pain or tingling. Maybe it’s tendinitis. In any case, I’ll have to make an appointment. I’m taking CR for his follow up tomorrow so I’ll make an appointment while I’m there.

The kids were WILD today. We all had a case of the Mondays I guess. Very LOUD. There’s one student who screams at the top of his lungs when he’s asked to do work or when he doesn’t get what he wants. He’s nonverbal so he really has no other way of communicating displeasure but it’s wearing. By the end of the day I often go home and sit in silence for awhile, no TV or music or anything. I’m hoping when he learns how to use his augmented communication device he’ll scream less because he’ll be able to talk to us through the device and tell us what he needs. He’s very smart, I know he’ll pick up the device quickly. The other students were just whiny and crying over food and other things. One girl spit her water all over, another took a bite out of a styrofoam cookie, it was just madness. I’m glad I’m taking off tomorrow for CR’s appointments.

It’s my two year wedding anniversary today. RS and I have been together for almost five years. I really lucked out with finding him.
