Quick update on little g for those of you keeping score from home.

Earlier in the week we met with staff at the school district to go over his IEP. An IEP is a legal document that is used to make sure that the needs of little g are being identified and met. He received his progress/report card as well from pre school. He scored above average in every area that did not invlove physical stuff. In fact, all areas regarding acedemics have been removed from his IEP. Awesome news.

He has difficulty with things as writing, tracing, using a scissors and other physical stuff. However, three months ago he could not write letters or trace shapes or make a smiley face strictly due to physically being unable to control pen, marker, pencil crayon etc. Today he can write his name and write letters but it is labored and not as neat as others. Obviously he still has issues with other physical stuff like walking jumping etc.

Since his trauma at birth all involved have been concerned about 1)mental disabilities and 2)physical disabilities. It seems that item 1 is or has become a non issue. In fact, tonight we had orientation for kindergarten next fall.

A few years ago all involved would have had a hard time betting on him doing a fraction of what he has accomplished to date.

Good stuff.

- Strong endorsement for Campus Pizza - very good and reasonable 'za and a full bar. We (as a family) get down there a few times a year up and above for sporting events.

- I can only go to the Saturday game so gman is getting off easy....:)....would be fun to meet up.

- Good news on the lad g! What a kid.

- IEP's are wonderful, we've had one for the lass since we found out she was hearing impaired.

- For those keeping score at home, the "what factor" with the lass has gone exponentially since her Cochlear Implant was activated last month. Amazing!

Cool stuff!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!! friday. not night yet

Indoor track is done. Got home at 10:45 last night. Looooong day. Lil did OK (first time all yr he didn't PR I think) but was coming down with something the last few days. Now he is done, he is sick. Felt like I had to drive with my head hanging out the window to stay healthy as we were driving home.

Hockey tonight seems like an after-thought and it is probably the biggest series of the whole yr.

Huh? :confused:

gmann is going to the Saturday game too so how is he getting off easy if you'll be there? You told me you were going to Friday only. You're just trying to ditch us all, aren't you? :p

The "what factor" has gone exponentially what since activation? Up, down, what?

C'mon, you're in marketing, don't you have to be able to communicate with some sense to your customers?

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 144: (Lack of) Winter Wonderland

Good morning and happy Friday Lodge. Lots to do before I bolt at 4:30 and head up to les' neck of the woods for tonight's reason for my appearance at the *hockey table.

People were playing around with tournament draws last night and someone had BU as the 1 seed in St. Paul. If that in fact does happen I will do my best to make the trip. Any of you guys plan to attend those games? Also saw this morning that the Terriers will travel to North Dakota next season. Yay! I'm definitely going on that trip.

I was toying with the idea. Depends on who's in the regional.

I cleared that weekend on my work schedule. FM and I would probably come down if neither of our teams are playing anywhere else.

Well, I would imagine the Gophers will be as they're the host. :) It's all way too far away and they way I'm feeling about the team now (Debbie Downer), I worry they will not make the NCAAs at all. :o I just wanted to throw it out there if that's how the pairings end up and I can swing the time off.

Well, given that I have half of March off already, I couldn't take any more time off for any weekday games. However, weekend games would probably be in play.

Two of the four regionals are Saturday/Sunday. I don't have time to find out which ones are which. That said, should that be where BU gets sent (if they actually do make the NCAAs) and I can make the trip, it would be over the weekend. I won't leave after BU loses that first game. Too expensive to change a flight. :) So, I would need to be entertained.

I'm sure Commie has a few ideas in that regard. :p

Morning, Lodge. I'm in the same boat with "I don't know if my team will be in post-series play" for the (fingers crossed) NCAAs or even the conference tourney, though at least the X is within a mile rather than across the country. (Wouldn't head to Green Bay regardless.)

I hate you.

My mouth looks like a war zone right now. There was blood running down my chin, and my lower face is so numb I couldn't feel it.
My surgeon looked like Brent.
