Wednesday: rain, therapy
Apr. 3rd, 2024 08:40 pmI forgot to take antihistamines yesterday or give them to A., so this morning was a little rough.
R. and I went out to dinner last night at Karma, and I think one of the drinks I had had some tea in it and it may have contributed to waking up a lot during the night. Altho honestly, just having a detailed plan for when school starts was so exciting that may have done it, too.
But it did not really matter, because we didn’t have much planned. Even so, A. was really agitated in the morning. I had J. talk to her for a few minutes and he told her some jokes and she laughed and settled down. That was really nice. We then had a nice long chat. A. came for a visit but no walk, because it was cold and threatening to rain at any time.
We went to therapy, and that was the world’s most expensive yoga session. R. came too. But I would never attempt to take A. to a normal yoga session, because translating what’s going on with her, and getting her accommodated so she didn’t just give up would be so hard with anyone I’ve ever met adjacent to yoga, that she went just have a meltdown and that would be the end of that. But the therapist really worked with her AND was willing to let me interpret verbally what the therapist was asking her to do and some of why and modify things and make additional suggestions when A. complained about pain in various places. I cannot imagine the yoga teacher who would let any of that happen (maybe in a private session?), and I actually think it _did_ ultimately help A. be a bit more grounded.
Otherwise, a pretty quiet evening. R. made Loaf, which we used to call meat loaf, but he now basically goes through the vegetable drawers and just puts so much veg in there that now we call it Loaf and make jokes about it. I had a Loaf sandwich (with condiments, but no additional veg beyond pickles because Why).
Oh, Duolingo on the ipad kept crashing. I couldn’t get it at all until I turned the ipad off and then on again, and even then, I couldn’t do anything before it crashed again. I de-installed it and re-installed it and then it worked. I have no idea what happened.
