Thanks @eth . I had a wonderful lady as D2's carer last year, but she has returned to studies herself this year and is unavailable (moved much further away too). I found her through an alternative platform, so I logged in last night to find someone new, and today will be sorting all that out ....
It might be putting the cart before the horse, but uni starts this week, so I need somebody straight off. It's a NDIS provider, so hopefully this will all glue together a bit further down the line.

Hope it works well for you this week @Faith-and-Hope I'm always amazed that you manage to study on top of all that you do xx

The study doesn't feel like study @eth .... it's my joy. And my kids are involved in the same sort of studies, so it's sort of a culture we are living.
I took D2 to a painting class last week. Her skill level was equal to many others in the class.

Sounds wonderful @Faith-and-Hope and so great that you are maintaining that positive focus while all else is happening.

I can't do anything much with "all else" @eth, other than wait it out, so these things are important distractions as well as feeding her growth - and she needs distracting too, poor darling. She can't read people's motives and takes everything on face value.

Saturday the 8th February 2020. The day my voices returned. 😞
Some days can be just memorable for all the wrong reasons.
Just checking in.

Just checking in. I can't believe it's nearly been a week. Thanks for the shout out @CheerBear .
My life has been a full washing machine of dirty laundry in the past week. Therapy has been pretty full on as I try to string bits together. I was hoping to write more but my brain is fried just now. I had lots of SI until the early hours of the morning thus the extra fried brain. 🤯. I'm ok now, just waking up to face my day.
