Spoiling myself

I've just rung the beauty salon and booked myself in for an eyelash tint and pedicure in about half an hour. A girl's gotta look good for Mickey!!!

And I spoke to Mr Messy at work (he gets up long before my alarm goes off!) and he's feeling a LOT better today, which is a huge relief :-) He still feels a bit wooly headed, but other than that he's fine :-) I also spoke to Little Prince's teacher and have asked that he be able to do the same weekly spelling tests that his class mates do, only verbally. He had been doing spellings, but this week had been changed to practise writing during the week (the only child in the class to do so) and was feeling that he wasn't good enough to do spellings. His teacher understood completely and said she would change him over as soon as we were back from our hols. I also asked about the Ed Psych's visit and she said that he didn't give any new info about Little Prince, just confirmed what we already know - that he has problems with concentration and fine motor control. Although he did say that Little Prince had higher than average understanding too, which I knew but its nice when the professionals agree :-) The last thing we talked about was the incident when the other child got hurt yesterday, I reiterated that Little Prince needs high levels of supervision and that someone needs to be thinking ahead for him (he doesn't do that himself!) and if they can see a situation that is likely to develop into one where someone gets hurt, they need to intervene BEFORE it happens!! Fingers crossed they'll get the message now!!!
