601 + 497 Weeks

We've had an OK week.  Arley's been having a tough time of it - I think having so much free time over Christmas and New Years isn't good for him.  He really needs to stick to a schedule, because transitioning back to one is very difficult.  The kids both had OT this morning at home, and Carmie did really well, Arley not so much.  Just getting him to sit and talk with the OT was challenging.

Yesterday the kids were both supposed to see Clint, but Arley ended up staying home with me.  He had a fight with his dad over keeping his computer desk clean, and then he was too upset to leave.  Oh my goodness, the tears!  Then on Tuesday at horse riding, Arley refused to ride.  He groomed, but that's it.  Carmie got back on her horse Chilly like a trooper.  That morning I had taken Arley to Taekwon Do and he did only a few minutes before he got tummy pains and had to stop.  See what I mean?

Our good news is that Lolo and Dida found a townhouse they love, and their offer has been accepted!  It's in Peregian Springs, which is about half an hour north of here.  When we finally buy a house here we will move a little closer to them.  The kids are very excited.  Carmie was jumping and flapping when she found out.  They'll be moving up here mid-March, which is great.  Jeffrey and I will actually get some time to ourselves!

I don't have much more to say.  Carmie has had a good week despite two nights of not the greatest sleep.  Oh yeah, one more thing.  I'm starting painting again.  I finished a commission last month and I put the painting on my old Instagram account, then my old art dealer saw it, contacted me and asked me to do a show this year.  I said yes, but small paintings only and it would have to be at the end of the year.  So, I'm back!

No photos of Arley this week :(
