maybe he likes your company?

Suzi, is this an online course or something?
It isn't online but it is a computer program. He goes to the computer lab at school and there is a program for each of the courses offered in the summer program. I'm pretty sure he only has access to the two classes I paid for.
In separate CJ news, I have also made his appointment for his Driver's License test - July 24th. Now we will spend the next month being picky over the letter of the law stuff. He drives well, I know that they look at all the little things on the drive test.

pish and posh.
granted he does not know the other kids yet and meeting new people is way way way down on the list of things mac wants to do, but tough tuddies, it is part of life. It is why we choose a day camp that goes all summer, so he only has to meet one group of kids and counselors.

I love that idea, Consuela.
msbelle, does mac have social anxiety? Or is it just the shift in his routine? With my kids I know it would be B, but I always think it's a good idea to ask about A.

I think the flash drives sound lovely, Suela.

OK, so you've taken any social anxiety into account then. I don't know but here are some {{hugs}}. I hope tomorrow he just pushes himself over it.

he has general anxiety about everything. It is more the transition and unknown than anything. I am really thinking about having him enroll in summer school next year even if he doesn't need it academically.

I think that's a great idea, msbelle. Structure is good.

I'm thinking of buying a bunch of cheap flashdrives and copying pictures onto them, to give away to visiting family. My dad scanned a ton of old family photos and it would be great to share at least some of them.
Consuela, that's a great idea. I need to do that with photos of my mom and grandmother.

I guess I need to find a different way to keep track of things.
It probably doesn't help if you don't have a smartphone, but I put everything on my Google calendar. Birthdays, appointments, flights, brunch plans, movie plans, rent, air filter changes, time for new contact lenses. If a bill isn't on autopay, I have it send me an email alert.
