    I am planning to go to bed very soon. I will read to take my brain off of the family issues.
    I am going to do a quick list of what I need to do. To take it off of my mind.
    Then tomorrow I will assess it, prioritise what is first etc
    So I will know what to tackle.
    I am going to keep listening to my music and then my hypnosis tape etc as regularly as I can until I get to the doctor.
    Funnily enough I didn't stress at all.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    I Believe.....
    That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
    Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

    happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
    but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy

    Thanks beanie . Her dla to pip was at home so this is a bit of a challenge for her to go beyond her comfort zone .
    However it's a long time since I was a quiet little mouse . Since learning to Roar I can deal with things quietly and politely but firmly and to the point.
    Thanks Crystal I've probably spelt your name wrong! Time for bed said Zebedee.x

    Good Luck Pollyanna!
    Thinking of you today.
    Then I am thinking about rescuing my schedule from calamity.

    It's time to cajole Dgd or blackmail her to school. Got the still don't feel well routine last night so I am prepared for stalling today.But she is going.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Mooloo, well done for dealing with the latest calamity/ies without feeling stressed. It seems that various excreta is hitting the fan, please try to do everything you can to look after yourself. That elastic band is looking very stretched at the moment!

    As to the SATS, we were lucky in that our son us academically able. However, we made it clear to him that SATS were a reflection of the teaching rather than him. As has been said, in reality they have little bearing on Gd's future at high school.

    Polly, thank you for explaining about Molly. I hope the PIP assessment goes smoothly today. I think my ESA is due to be reassessed some time this year.
    It's not difficult!
