This morning I filled out Hyia's summer school form, put it with the report card envelope. I just found both sitting on her desk. She came back in after heading for the bus stop to retrieve the homework she forgot yesterday. THe one I told her to put in her planner and instead she put it inside of her desk. SHe went right to her desk and yet did not see the planner or the envelop right on top. HEr teacher says she has problems with organization. So do I, in capitals.
So how does a person who has already lost the census form, can't find 2/3 of anything important half the time, make sure a child that is just as disorganized gets over it. I haven't been able to in 40 years. I get the bills paid, sometimes late but they dont' get shut off. I have the same wallet for the last 20 years even tho I have lost it a half dozen times. I can't handle 2 sets of keys. I can't manage a checking account, i am much much better off without one, and i don't dare have a credit card. I manage not to run out of gas in a car with a faulty gas gauge (it goes backwards after it gets down to a quarter tank) but for the most part i am a wreck. I don't want her to be wreck because of my influence.
Just having a hard time is all and don't know what to do about it. My disease has made any thing I struggled with mentally a billion times worse.
The best thing i have ever done for her is getting her out of that school she was in and into this district. Everything scholastically for her is much better. From her handwriting down to what she talks about when she comes home.
