Just got a call from the "Managed Healthcare Disability" for E's job (how retarded is it that to use sick leave that you have accummulated you have to get permission even if it's NOT job related!) and he has been approved for "disability" thru March 4th.... Sooo I called E to let him know... and wondered if Managed Healthcare knew something we didn't as they extended him thru next week... Sure enough, he's not coming home til Friday... He was a bit miffed at first but then realized there must be a reason for it.... I am THRILLED to hear him talk like that.... AND it gives me 2 extra days to clean! Having made small progress in kitchen/LR I would like to TRY to keep building on it and I would like to get into the bedroom and clean out all of E's "friends" he has stashed in the closet/cabinet before he gets home....
We all slept rather late this morning (VERY unusual for the boys to sleep til 8) and Dev didn't get to school til 10.... PRAY he has a good day as coming in late disrupts his 'schedule' and Dev has a hard time adjusting to things when they are off track.... BUT he chose to go after saying his tummy hurt and he wanted to stay home... Amazing the power of rewards - the teacher has a "ticket" thing going... 5 tickets and they get a doll of some sort and Dev wants one... of course you only get one ticket a day so he HAD to go today... I am praying really hard he has a good day and gets his ticket....
Well it's off to arrange for the boys to stay w/Doris tonight OR maybe rearrange schedule somehow so I DON"T have to work tonight.... Gotta go look at calender/schedule... Til next time...
