Catch up - but no photos :o(

I am so behind in posting i haven't posted for a while. I have so many projects to photograph and things to talk about but basically am soo overwhelmed with all of them that's its hard to see the wood for the trees.



Uni is driving me nuts anyone out there a wizz at Stats yuck, well not yuck as i don't mind it. Its just that there are so many definitions to remember and my memory certainly isn't my best asset that's for sure.



We had out March getaway at Rawson (our new venue) over labour Day weekend and it was GREAT. We had a really small grp as its so difficult to change venues and organise all the teething issues associated with that, I really didn't want loads of unhappy guests if something awful had happened. As it turned out it was a great venue and nothing tragic happened, it was very successful and no great dramas.



Karen from Kazmos came and did a class which was sooo much fun ill talk more about that in another post. Apart form that we had a glorious weekend of scrapping chatting and much laughter had by all.



Thanks guys for making my first getaway on my own so successful. I have soo many new ideas and changes to the getaways so stay tuned to hear all of them here, lots of exciting plans up my sleeves.



Finally getting Josh assessed by a fabulous Psychiatrist, to maybe get a handle on the behaviours we are seeing. He really is struggling to stay a part of his little group at school, Claire is trying so hard to keep him happy and integrated in his class but i think this is just something that is out of even her hands.



Yeah she is a miracle worker but unfortunately cant kick this one. Anyway the new Psych is AMAZING seriously he has so far been so incredibly thorough, he has incorporated reports from all of Josh's specialists and even all his OT, speech, physio. Basically any tiny bit of info i have about josh he wants to know so that he can have the entire picture and work from there.



Getting all this info to him has been such a big task, even Claire has been to see him giving him the picture of what josh is like at school, pead has spoken to him as has the neurologist and neurosurgeon. He has also applied to get a history from the RCH. And has written about 20 pages of notes from me - phew it has been exhausting but will be all worth it in the end.



Still in the throws of all that so ill keep you informed of how that goes. Crossing my fingers there will be a solution as we desperate need one.

Anyway have to get back to study, was going to post some pics of some of the projects i have been doing but cant find my camera. Seriously not sure how you loose such a big thing but evidently its possible as i cant find it anywhere ??? If it turns up at your place please let me know.

Nope, can't see it here...sorry! Hope you find it soon so we can see some of those scrappy pics. Well done for persevering with all the specialists - it can be so tiring sometimes I just take a break.
