Just calling in to wish you good night @Anastasia @WIP @Eve7 😀
Its only 10pm, early for me. But I am so tired, its ridiculous. So I'm giving in, and heading off to bed.
Much love to each of you.💞

Good morning dear @Anastasia . I'm sorry you are dealing with emotional overload right now. Yes I can imagine it would be a major concern with your boy suddenly acting different to his normal. And it also sounds like Friday pizza night was a bit of a disaster for you as well.
I'm glad you are back in the office today ... where hopefully your magnificent efforts in gaining that grant, should be applauded and celebrated. I will be a fly on the wall, to make sure they give you your due plaudits. 😊 I hope your day goes quickly and effortlessly, and maybe even give you the chance to get home earlier than usual. Does your boy have his support worker with him today, or maybe a psych apt? I hope that goes well, and helps to alleviate some of your worries around his recent behaviour.
Remember I am here for you if you need to unload or just chat.
Emelia 🤗💞
