With all of Scarlett's therapies and doctor's appointments, I am always doing something. Up until just now, I had Wednesdays and the weekends free. Well, here's our weekly schedule now:
Mondays: Physical Therapy
Tuesdays: Home Nurse Visit
Wednesdays: Idaho School for the Deaf and Blind
Thursdays: Feeding/Speech Therapy
Fridays: Home Nurse Visit
And I just got off the phone with our Developmental Therapist! We have yet to choose a day for that. When Scarlett gets a little older, she will also be doing Occupational Therapy.
At least once a week, we also travel to Boise or Twin Falls for some sort of doctor or specialist visit, and we do routine blood draws in addition to that. *phew* My head is spinning a little bit....
I can't help but feel my job as Stay At Home Mom just transitioned to Stay At Home Mom/Traveling Nurse, haha!
The other thing I wanted to announce today is: for those of you who knew, we were planning on moving to Meridian sometime in the next 2 1/2 years. The reason being, all of Scarlett's doctors and hospitals are up there, and there is also another campus for the blind up there. Or so I thought =(. I learned yesterday that it isn't a campus - but an office!
Gahhhh.
I'm pretty bummed. The ONLY school in Idaho is in Gooding.
Have you ever been to Gooding?
Yeah, neither has anyone else.
The place looks like this:
Needless to say, I'm not moving there, haha!
So, the plan right now will be to move to Twin Falls. She'll take the bus 4 days a week (that is their school week) to school, which is about a 30-45 minute drive.
I'm kind of sad. I've always loved the Boise/Meridian area because it's a "big" city, but not TOO big. It's also pretty, and there is a lot to do there! I was really looking forward to moving there.
However, I will go where ever I need to go for my kids. And I suppose Twin isn't soooo bad ;)
So, Twin Falls: See you in two years!
