I woke up at seven thirty, I had set the alarm last night. I had a shower, got dressed and had my breakfast. Alex woke up at eight o’clock. I got him to have a shower, get dressed and then I gave him his breakfast.
About five minutes before we were to go to Gym class Alex said that he couldn’t go. He said because he had a bad cough and that he might throw-up in the class and would I want him to do that. I said I didn’t think that he would throw-up in the class. I wish I had known he didn’t want to go to the class and I would have been able to sleep in. Ten minutes before the class was to start Alex said that he wanted to go to the class. I told him that we probably would be late, but we went anyways. We were ten minutes late but the teacher didn’t say anything she just said hi to us when we got there.
I did some errands then it was time to get Alex. I told the teacher Joan that I was sorry that we were late but that Alex had said he didn’t want to go to the class then he said he did. Joan said that Alex seemed to be in another world. When she told them to do something he just didn’t know what to do.
Alex hasn’t been sleeping too well lately. He has been coughing really badly in the middle of the night and he sounds like he’s going to throw-up. I put the humidifier in his room, at first he didn’t want it on because he said that he couldn’t sleep with it on. At five o’clock he was coughing so badly that Alex asked to have it on. It seems to help him from coughing so much.
When we got home Charlie was still in bed, he had to work until one thirty last night. We watched TV, we didn’t want to do anything in case we woke him up. Charlie woke up at eleven o’clock.
I was then able to make the bed and do some work around the house. By that time it was time for lunch. After lunch I typed in the journal and Alex watched his shows. At four o’clock, Kurt phoned and asked Alex to come over. That was a nice break being by myself for once. I cleaned up the house, reorganized Alex’s room, made Alex more play dough, and started to make dinner.
Nora phoned at six o’clock to let me know that there was an open house at Ranch Park School tonight from seven thirty to eight thirty. She said she thought that it would be a good opportunity to see how the school was. I thanked her and that I would see how Alex was and maybe we would go. I told her that she could send Alex home now. She said they were just finishing coloring and she would send him home.
When Alex got home he showed me what he had colored. He had drawn some dinosaurs and colored them and he had done a really good job.
I told Alex about the open house at the school and Alex said he really wanted to go see the school where Brent and Kurt both go.
We ate dinner then I did the dishes and got ready to go. There were quite a few people there and we found the kindergarten class. Kurt, Patrick and Carlos were there. Kurt came over to Alex and grabbed his hand and took him over to the TV. They had a video playing of their field trip to a pumpkin farm. Then we went to find Brent’s class which was at the other end of the hall. Brent was with another kid playing. Monique was really happy to see us, she ran over to Alex and hugged him quite a number of times. We saw where Brent sat in his class, Alex was really interested in that. It was good for Alex to see where his friends go. Then we went to the Library and came home. Alex wanted to look into every class but I didn’t.
Alex had a snack when we got home then he went to bed. I watched TV and typed in the journal until ten o’clock. Then I went to bed.
