#1752 Wednesday 24 January

Tonight when Kaylia did "calendar" after tea, she counted SIX days till school!  She is very happy.

This morning Kaylia and I went for a drive to the shops  ... "Where to?"  ..... "Mundaring" ..... "What do you want at the shops?" ..... "Grapes!"    Now that was unusual ..... and when we got to the shop she went into the shop without prompting.  (Usually she wants to stay in the car and listen to music.)  We went into Woolies but they didn't have the grapes she wanted ... so we went down to Coles.  She looked at the available choices at Coles and made her selection.   It was very interesting.

Later in the day, Kaylia went to Fremantle with Harry and Elle for her final "Friendship Club" session.  These sessions are very good for her.  She really needs social interaction and the structured activities .... school, therapy, holiday activities, aupairs ..... add up to a substitute for normal social interaction.  It's not perfect but it goes a long way toward meeting her needs.

NBN?  The first night didn't go well ... there were lots of service interruptions and I thought "Oh No!"  When I spoke to iiNet support today I found out that our first night just coincided with a night where there were state-wide outages .... it wasn't us!  We'll continue assessing.  The support form iiNet is really outstanding.
