I don't have time to write much of a post today, but I thought I'd check in at any rate. I committed myself to doing some organization around the house, and felt like baking too, so I'm attempting both. The baking is over ( I made pineapple upside-down cake), but I still have dinner to prep (I don't know why, but I felt like doing something special for dinner tonight, even though it's just a random Thursday)... mmm, marinated steak. My marinades are always fun, I mix a little of whatever I have on hand, adjust to taste, and it always ends up fabulous. Todays concoction was soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, a little BBQ sauce, finely chopped onion, honey, sriracha sauce, and garlic. Taste test verdict: Delicious! Now to decide what I'm going to make with it... I considered potatoes au gratin, but we just had that last week. The kids love mashed, so maybe I'll jazz them up, and do a seasoned veggie medley as well. Also, I need to make rolls. Nothing better than fresh rolls with butter, in my opinion.
Tristan is continuing to do well on his medication, no side effects as of yet, and he's been behaving well at school. The behaviour, I'm not sure is coincidence or the pills, but at any rate, it's always nice to pick him up from school with a glowing review from his E.A. In February we start The Incredible Years Program, which runs for 15 weeks. I meet with other parents as a form of support group, and to learn skills that will aid in raising a child with ADHD, and Tristan will join the childrens class to learn how to better manage his emotions and work on his social skills. Should be interesting.
Mike just texted me and informed me he is stuck carrying drywall in this awful weather, and it is just killing him. I feel so badly for him, I can't imagine the pain he is in. I wish he could come home now :(
