mac's therapist was gently prodding me that I needed to really get busy and making calls for more supportive services and a plan for school related issues. I fully admit that I was basking in the easier days we've had over the weekend and so far this week, but I know she is right and I will only be worse off if I do not do some navigating of the system now, before there is a crisis. As if to make sure I got the message, I just got a call from home with a screaming mac in the background - he doesn't want to do what is being asked for him and what the daily schedule says it is time for. oy.
That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

it's hard to maintain the urgency day in and day out, but having things in place will make the next crisis easier. Seriously, god forbid he goes to school for a couple of days then melts down completely unable to keep it together and I start from zero THEN.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Are there any calls I can make for you?

Liese, do you have the second feeder out of sight of the first? I've been told that that's the way to do it to have at least a couple feeding at the same time. Unfortunately, then you can't really watch them both at once, at least I can't with one on the front yard and one in the back.
I've seen four feeding at the same feeder up in Glacier, but never at my house, alas.
Good luck with the getting things in place, msbelle. it makes sense to do that while it's not a crisis. I hope you will be able to bask in more peace without having this sort of thing hanging over you at some point.

Yeah, that makes sense.
Unrelatedly, in my office of like 50 people, we have three preggos! Doesn't that seem like a lot? Although not really given how many of us are women in our childbearing years....

Ann, that's a ferret.
More than normal, but I've seen more. Once, I was in an office of about 20 people with three pregnant women and one expectant father.
