mrsbrownI'm sitting at the kitchen table, and MsNotaGoth is calmly writing the preparation for her SAC.
I think parent teacher interviews this afternoon helped - they all told her how fabulous she is, that she's a leader in every class she's in. Her English teacher also told her that she didn't think her essay writing difficulites are related to her abilities and we just need to sort out her anxiety and she has the potential to do very well.
Great. But now I'm stuck at the kitchen table keeping her company so she feels comfortable just doing it. And I don't have to do anything. And just then, I made a suggestion and "completely ruined" her train of thought and she's had to go out to the pell to get her mojo back.
I'm not allowed to sew, I'm not allowed to pack for Festival, I just have to sit here, surfing and wanting to do stuff.
What can I do that will get me further along my three major tasks - Festival prep, Midwinter stuff, and Innilgard tent making?
PS I love my parentin icon. It really reminds me of the tin tacks of being a parent: there's hard work, there's pain and there's blood. There's also a whole lot of boredom while being supportive.
