My facepalm moment of the day was going to pick up Morgan from school, getting half way there and remembering she had a game to play in the band at tonight and I wasn't supposed to get her til 7:30.

BUT, I was back home for 10 minutes when she called and said that they weren't playing afterall so off I went again to pick her up.
The meeting went ok. I'm a little concerned about a few things but it's just a matter of trying them and seeing if it will work. One thing I disagreed with in the report was that the behavior analyst said that since Alex has language skills (unlike some with Autism), he wasn't using behavior to communicate. WHAT?!

ALL behavior is a form of communication whether your verbal or not. And the behavior analyst wasn't even at the meeting. Again, WHAT?! He wrote the report so where the heck are you to help write a behavior intervention plan? The special ed coordinator had notes on what he suggested as a plan. First, he is going to go half days for a while. The sum of it is that the more appropriate behavior, like finishing his work, not asking to leave class to call me, then the more time he gets to spend out of class in a preferred setting or getting to call me. Ummm, I thought that was what we were doing before he went on home bound. That's SUPPOSED to be what we were doing. I guess they weren't. Instead of him calling me then his parapro would text me. I won't bore you with any more of it but lets just say it's gonna get worse before it gets better.
Hubby was supposed to be on leave tomorrow but it got canceled due to the gov't shutdown.

This means he works tomorrow, leaves Thursday to go hunting until Saturday, then leaves again Sunday for work for two days. Ugh.
Tonight I will be draining a glass of wine. Or two.
