- one day of 6 phone calls trying to get 3 ADHD prescriptions fille
- + 2 more phone calls of confirmation the following day
- two phone calls with the nurse at developmental peds, moving an appointment up by a month
- a referral to another specialist
- 6 pages to fill out before the appointment can be made
- 2 pages to send to the classroom teacher (& then to retrieve from the child's backpack) for the pre-appointment packet
- a 30-minute zoom (following up on the previous week's 1-hour zoom) parent intake interview to start a new intervention
- driving 30 minutes to speech therapy one afternoon (weekly, according to the university calendar)
- investigating some specialized reading tutoring over the summer
- scheduling an audiology appointment for annual hearing test & custom swim ear molds
- troubleshooting with the audiologist regarding an echo coming from BK's hearing aids
- arranging transportation two days a week when one child stays an extra hour after school for math intervention
- attempting to register LM for tumbling (which will help with rewiring her brain) [This is proving a lot more difficult than I imagined, as it has to be done in person???]
- answering an email from the school saying that I will be at LM's annual meeting reviewing her IEP (both children's meetings used to be in April, but I think now we have one in the fall and one in the spring, which is actually helpful) [to read all prior posts about IEPs, go here]
- awaiting a 48-page report in the mail outlining (in detail apparently) the findings of global-psycho-educational testing for one child
As someone said recently, "You couldn't work [outside the home] if you wanted to."
