What Went Well

Cleaned up the Rabbits.
Made real progress on the kitchen packing away
M picked up Bub and took him home
Bub is joining in more in the school discussions
Bub was in a fine mood after school
Had a deep conversation with Hub about Bub and school and he had a great way of describing what we want for Bub. We want to help him find his own authentic voice and things that he loves and is good at and that lights him up. Our mission is to help him nurture friendships with children who are like him.  To help him find activities that really interest him, and build on the strengths he already has.  We are going to reassess the after school club situation and seek clubs and activities where he can build friendships outside of school and in environments where he is fully engaged.  Allow him to grow and become who he is, and happy.
travel to Bristol went well
Sorting out a plug (no plug in the bath!!! ) social media came up with a workable solution when the hotel staff could not help me (used a wad of loo roll and the bath mat - other suggestions were soap and a flannel.  Who knew this was a common issue? - but thanks for the great suggestions - i did have a bath in the end!)

Could do better

Bits of the meeting with the teachers was not good.  Bub is smart and is joining in the discussions, but he is not at all interested in writing down his thoughts, stories, maths.  And he has to.   We are concerned that, he's disengaging at school, that its not a good environment for him. Hub is upset about it.  So hence the whole lets re jig the scene  and not have Bub there so much.  He can still do clubs but not at the school and so on

Bloody plug.  I will check about the plug in advance  - or at least will know about the loo roll trick

not sure that this format is currently working for me.  I want to write more freely.  I may mix it up.  Also, next time I will not take the free glass of wine.  I stayed up too late and feel a bit shit this morning as a consequence.

Long term goals.
today its all about helping bub find his happy places.

To do today
