I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's not movable the same way Easter is, Connie, it's just on a calendar that isn't 365 days long.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Huh, I can read it, but it hurts and I don't mean that figuratively.

Ah, I see! Thank you.

Compassionately intolerant

5 pixels? Man. Readable by some.

I love the first comment under the fox video says "this is the kind of things they start religions over." Love it.

waves at Betsy (softly, quietly in a way that won't set off her head.)

Huh, I actually have found a reason for the bifocals, now, though I imagine I looked like my mother when I tipped back my head to peer through the lower part of my lenses.

Oh, I'm not sure I should have tried to read that font with my head like this. But it worked! It may be time for a lie-down.

And what's with all the carrots?

They are both medicated at this point and I can really see the boy's meds wearing off by the time he gets to me at 4pm. It just points up how much MORE she has to deal with each day.

We just had the boys ADHD/Aspergers appointment yesterday. Due to a growth spurt and the wearing off of the meds by 4 p.m. and thus issues in the after school program, his dosage is changing. He is at 72 mg Concerta in the a.m. (6:30-ish) and now 18mg at Noon to carry him through the day. He was taking 5mg Ritalin in the afternoon but there was a roller coaster of emotions due to the meds wearing off pre-Ritalin.

As for the parent, parenting an ADHD kid requires a lot of work on routine (which you know), structure and finding the right activities for the kiddo. Is the parent feeling so hopeless/helpless she can't/doesn't have the energy left to do the work?
