Project Launch Meeting on Wednesday
Apr. 2nd, 2025 10:58 pmI dropped A. off at school.
I squeezed in a walk with M. at 11ish.
I had a phone call with J.
We did the project launch meeting for the attic room renovation.
R. picked up A. and brought her to therapy. I met her there and traded cars with R. I took A. to 110 Grille in Maynard after. I talked to the therapist about ICCD and the whole oddity of T. going to get neuropsych eval testing requested by his psychiatrist, and then someone else at ICCD pushing T. in the direction of getting ADOS testing to establish eligibility for services through DDS. Which we went over as part of T.’s final IEP process and decided not to go forward with DDS. So now I’m very confused as to what is the driving force behind this, as T. disclaims any interest in replacing our support with state support and he doesn’t seem at all unhappy with his current level of independence. *shrug* Weird all around, but whatever. Nice to know that the therapist has lots of respect for ICCD so there’s probably some odd misunderstanding somewhere and we’ll eventually find out and chuckle about it, I guess.
It feels like this has been a very long week already. Oh, and the builder had asked for me to fill out a reference for them as part of a qualify to do government contracts thing, but when I got the form, it is intended for references whose job is 100% complete which obviously ours is not. I got multiple notifications to fill out the form while waiting for clarification, and then everyone agreed, nope, sorry, definitely do not fill out that form. Which is fine!
I ordered another backpack. I do realize I keep saying I’m going to stop buying luggage, and yet here I am. I got the Fjallraven Kanken 17” laptop bag, which is supposedly an underseat bag/personal item. It is a super dark purple / marroon and very lovely. It is incredibly light. People swear it wears easily and I loaded it up for an upcoming con weekend and can confirm that it feels great on. It holds a lot and has zero stretch, so it is not possible to get into a situation where you will be in violation, which is nice. The goal isn’t just con weekend — the goal is to follow my sister’s one-bag lead. It would be soooo nice to have one carry-on roller, one backpack, one tote, and a couple small purses and have that cover A. and me on a two week, multi country trip overseas. I could probably manage getting on and off trains with two rollers, but I’d feel better managing just the one.
