Odd kind of day

It was an odd kind of day. Casey got to sleep in a bit because he didn't have a nurse to bring him to school. One of our nurses had a family emergency and she had to leave the state, and the other nurse that brings him to school is off sailing in the Bahamas....And, Colin's para has been sick all week and three paras were out at the elementary school so there was no one to send here for Colin. We could have gotten a 'cold' sub, but as you guys can imagine, a person that has never been here before wouldn't have a clue as to what to do with Colin.

Casey watched Hairspray in his old room and was quite content. Then we got ready for the day and into his chair and he listened to a good hunk of a book on CD while waiting for Kathy to come to do some school work.

Colin and Nana L watched some Pink Panther and then they did some school work. They did a few fractions, read some information on Vermont geography and finished a story in his reading book. I had told him that he could play computer or wii after he finished and he worked diligently, but then decided he just wanted to watch The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Kathy and Casey watched some YouTube videos on Guatamala to get some information and flavor for his project. He did that very willingly. When it came time to do some work on his DynaVox vocabulary, he balked. He just refused. We tried everything, cajoling, bribing, kidding, etc. and he just wouldn't do it. Tomorrow he will have to face the wrath of Mel! (she thinks she'll be back tomorrow anyway).

This afternoon was spent wii-ing with Aunt Ju and then Krisite. AC was feeling the need to get caught up on some school work so she didn't come over.

Gene actually went into the office today.

Now I'm relaxing and having some of my homemade frozen yogurt and watching some TV. American Idol is DVRing so the boys and I can watch this weekend.

I think it got up into the low 40s today. SLOWly the snow is melting.
