Considering all the negative shit I've been talking about lately, I've neglected the good stuff coming my way.

1) My self shot is due out in less than 4 days!

2) Frankus and I are making plans to hang out on Sunday. This time he's coming to my neck of the woods.

3) My AVON is picking up at school again.

4) I got a $10 tip at school today from doing a girl's color.

5) I'm going to my friend Elisia's Slumber Party on Saturday.

6) I think John and I are getting caught up on bills.

7) I'm passed my halfway mark at school!! I have about 700 more hrs to go. Anytime in September or after I'll be taking my first mini-boards.

8) I've been talking to some of the girls at school about Logan. One girl has a soon to be step-son who has the same exact issues that Logan is having at school. She and her fiance took him to the pediatrician to be tested and they were able to give him something to calm him down a bit so he could concentrate. She recommended that I take Logan to go get checked out, especially if it's becoming a serious problem at school. Which it is. The teacher told me today that Logan is really hard to control. He just doesn't want to listen, follow directions, and he's too much to handle. He came home with another orange slip today from PE.

It's been 2 weeks since he has started school. He did better at the beginning before he got used to everything. As soon as I can, I'm going to be making Logan an appointment to make sure he doesn't have any learning disabilities. I would be so relieved if he WAS diagnosed with ADD/ADHD because then we'd know why we're dealing what we are and we can go forward with dealing with it correctly. As much as I don't like the idea of medicating him (I don't even like medicating myself), if it calms him down enough so he's not disruptive in class and causing problems, it is worth checking in to.

Just make sure you get him REALLY tested a lot...my sister went through that for years with my neohew, and while he was add/adhd, he also has Aspergers syndromem which took years for them to get proerly diagnosed, he is now 15.

I am looking forward to your new set, I love balck and white photography!

a lot of kids are overwhelmed when they enters school ... ADD/ADHD is not the only thing ...

Glad to hear about 1-7. 8 well, development is hard to measure. I'm sure he will find himself.
