walkitoutHorrible, gooey precipitation fell out of the sky. Not enough to close schools, however, school dismissed early due to a power outage. We brought A. to Fusion for assessment testing. She did Mindprints today. She had some issues with the Penn Conditional Exclusion test, and it took me a while to figure out what was going on there. Turns out if you ignore the feedback on that test, It Matters. She also had issues with the N-Back test, but in that case, it was purely a matter of processing speed (for her, that is).
R. made Loaf the other night. This is the food product previously known as Meatloaf, and it does involve meat, but the volume of vegetation is so huge it seems wrong to call it Meatloaf, so we just call it Loaf. I had a Loaf sandwich for lunch. For dinner, I made a pizza, and because I ate the last of the pepperoni the other night, I put some broken up bits of Loaf on it, along with the last of the pre-cooked mushrooms, some cashew cheese, chopped dates, tomato paste, herbs, etc.
It was Yum.
My pizza crust at this point is just bacon grease on a pan, and then sourdough straight out of the crock spread out using a spoon, a spatula, my fingers, whatever, and then some oil on top to help shape it. It is completely weird how well this turns out. Looks a mess going on but looks great coming out and tastes awesome.
ETA:
I realized that it’s been 3 weeks since I pulled A. out. And currently, it looks like she’ll have her first day in class at the 4 week mark. Not bad, given that when I took that first day off, I had no plan at all. And it’s not like there was school each of those days (Good Friday, for example, but also two late start days, and today was a surprise early release, and next week there’s another holiday day). Further, she’ll be attending school during the week that ABRSD takes off in April, and we’re working on her summer school plan. This will net out no loss and possibly slight advancement, at least that’s what it is looking like currently. Not that I care!
