This has been a busy crazy week. The dss social worker did not want teen to have to move out of this school zone since graduation is 3 months away. The agency only has us in this school zone. So the social worker is working on getting a behavioral intervention specialist to work with teen every day during the week from 3:30 - 5:30 so she is not home with Abbie. We decided to give it a try. Teen has been very well behaved and apologetic. We have also increased medications. I don't like kids or anyone else on meds unless they need them. At this time I think she needs them. And of course her therapist is the one to insist on upping the meds. So behavior was good until she said the f word to her teacher. Not good but dealable.
The girls had fun together this weekend. A lot of fun actually. That is always a blessing. Everyone went to church and everyone behaved. Abbie did say a little too loudly, as a teenage boy passed us "are you allowed to sag in church?" referring to his sagging pants.
Teen helped make dinner a got small burn on her finger. I told her to cut a bit from the aloe plant and put in on the burn. She looked at me like I was crazy. She told me it was gansta and ghetto. I have no idea why it would be gansta or ghetto but whatever.
I feel like every time I say everything is going well something happens. So I am praying that the calmness continues.
