Have been with out the internet, other than my ph, for ages but finally reconnected at our new home and thought I'd pop on here and see how everyone is?
Mikko's ORS application got sent off on FRiday so we are eagerly waiting the response.

I wondered where you were! I knew you had your house on the market but wasn't sure if you had sold and where you are now. Did you sell privately in the end? I've got a few questions so might have to catch up with you privately at some stage Cool

I've been a little bit awol from lots of online places too. Have been busy doing IRL stuff, spending time helping out in my Miss 5's class a few days each week and generally deciding what I want to be when I grow up. That's in between house renovations and trying to play nicely with WINZ over our CDA.... I failed on that point lol! Apparently I'm so good at spending the pittance of money they give us each week on Daniel and I've made his autism disappear (yeah right Rolling Eyes ), that he no longer qualifies Suspect

Hope your boys are good and thriving... great to "see" you again Very Happy

Gosh it's been a while since I've been on here too. We're having some behavioural issues with Ian at the moment, mostly linked to the computer as he's totally addicted. No point in removing it at home as they have computers at school and an I-pad there too! We're working on it.

Josh's Mummy, your aunt is a the sort of person I'd like to do something not nice to, obviously has absolutely no clue, but to exclude him from the memorial service is totally wrong!

Mikko gets pretty obsessed with tv and ipad also. I go through phases where i manage to keep them off completely for weeks on end and then i slowly weaken Embarassed

Daniel is totally obsessed with Minecraft Embarassed drives us batty but it's also worked a little bit to our advantage in that it's given him something in common with his peers that they can all talk about and it's broadened his circle of friends at school a bit more too. I guess we're a bit lucky with Daniel that he's come far enough we can negotiate with him and for example today, he needs to finish his school homework sheets before getting his Minecraft time and they have to be done to a readable level, not rushed through.

I'm so sorry to read about your Grandad's memorial service Josh's Mummy Crying or Very sad other people honestly have no clue and can be so cruel!

Fingers crossed the melatonin has worked for you I love you

Ian's having difficulty getting to sleep at the moment, we're using Melatonin on school nights and not on the weekends. Saturday night he fell asleep around 11pm Shocked ; mind you he was overexcited that day as we put his Christmas present together and he spent all day on it (new tramp). Glad your guys are sleeping well Jeshiko.
Aside from that we've stopped the computer unless it's raining on a weekend/holiday and his behaviour has definitely improved which is good.

Oh dear, hope things improve for you soon.

We're having issues with Ian disappearing. Thursday evening was the first one, police found him in a classroom at school 1h15m after he left home (he left at 6.55pm), he'd snuck in behind the cleaners. He tried again tonight but the cleaners weren't there so he was thwarted and we knew where to look this time.

Our kids are definitely the cause of our grey hairs I think.
