That is good news, sj. Bullying is an issue that needs to be taken seriously.

Agreed. I was willing to let ltc and the teacher handle it when it was just words, but grabbing her arm and then shouting "I don't care" into her face when she told him she doesn't like that. Nope. I needed to let everyone know I'm paying attention and make sure they are too. Good news is my kid stands up for herself and for others when kids are being mean, and the teachers and principal thinks that is great.

From the very little I have seen ltc I can well imagine her standing her ground and defending others! It's really good that the teachers and principal are supportive. It is enormously frustrating when they shrug it off, which happens too often.

They were great and seem to be taking the situation very seriously.
That's good to read!

Good to hear that, sj.
Alas, no dog at the dentist. I had dog visits a few times when I was in the hospital, and it was amazing. So spirit-lifting.

It sounds like I have to go back to the office by next month. I'm trying not to have a negative knee-jerk reaction to the news, because it should be encouraging.

Timelies all!
My next dentist visit is next week. Standard cleaning and checkup. Hopefully, no problems will come to light.

Major tasks today included putting in a new pull down staircase for the attic so the inspector won't lose his life going up there. Also, as I have been tossing and consuming all the things in the fridge it became necessary to clean all the drawers and shelves because ick! I swear I am going to calendar clean out the fridge like once a month in the future. Generally I think we keep a pretty clean house, but as things get emptier the hidden grossness comes to light.
Yeah, dentist has been put off for a very long time. It's not too high on the list.
