So, I missed yesterday partly because not much happened, but I was also tired. I think my allergies are kicking in. It is strange, but for almost the entire time we were in Washington, my allergies didn’t bother me too much, and you’d think with all the trees, it would be awful, but as soon as we are back in NY, I have started to have to take allergy meds. Well, got some for tonight.
Yesterday we had our Assistive Technology session, lunch with Anthony and a visit from Hatam. The session went well, and we are getting a new program on the iPad to help David communicate. Anthony had his PT session at RUSK, and we met him afterwards and went around the corner for a Greek lunch. Nice place and we got the scoop on what is going on in his life. As we said to him, he has to come to Palm Springs for a visit asap. Hatam came by afterwards with Maya, and she showed us a sort of paper airplane made with straw and construction paper. It flew very well, and she called it a circle air cutter. Appropriate, and she was also intrigued by David’s “NO” button. Everyone is, once the discover what it does.
Today we had Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapies. It was raining most of the day, and fortunately, we were able to get into PT as soon as the others were done, and saved ourselves a trip back in the rain. Afterwards, we took a nap. To be totally honest, I took a long nap, and David, a very short one. Then we caught up on GLEE. Very silly episode, I thought. We also watched a few taped episodes of Chopped and was glad that Sunny won for N Street Village!
This morning, I had a few email exchanges with Sal from UNIS, who is in Hanoi, and this put David off a bit. He kept saying that it should have been him! My response was, we can go to Hanoi on our own, if you want. David is now asleep. Snoring, of course, but he will deny it! Before sleep, the blog and Julia. The book was rejected by Houghton Mifflin, but picked up by Knopf. They are still in Oslo.
