Last few days have been crazy but fun. Friday I worked at respite with two teenaged girls, one who's very relaxed, and another who keeps us all running. The second one is probably 18, not really verbal, probably has a few inches and 50 pounds on me. I've worked with her before, and usually end up running after her because she runs into the kitchen and grabs food or grabs other people's food and drink. I guess Friday she wasn't feeling well, and she was at an all-new state of agitation for me, running and jumping and crying. Quickly discovered I shouldn't try to block her as she just about bowled me over at one point lol.
Friday night was the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert, which was amazing. My mom and I ended up with really good seats because Ticketmaster gave us imaginary seats. But we got snowed on by a snow-maker, had a laser/light show complete with pyrotechnics. Definitely an awesome experience.
Went out with my sister to look at an apartment I was interested in, but that isn't gonna work out...the potential roommates and I are worlds apart. Too bad, but I really did not see that working out. Back to the drawing board with that.
My little guy was back at work today! He was gone in Florida for a month for some sort of intensive therapy. Had a great day, but the poor kid was all out of sorts. His mom didn't send in his notebook, hearing aids or put on his theratogs. It took him a little while to seem to remember a lot of us. Good news is he lasted a lot longer with toys; usually he's throwing them on the floor after 2 minutes, today he lasted about 10. He's come up with a new behavior though, hair-pulling. Could be because I forgot a hair tie, or could be because he didn't have his hearing aids to pull out. Who knows. But I'm glad he's back, I've missed my little bugger :-P
