Well ..... it looks like our lunch and afternoon movie plans have gone haywire ..... 😔

Rescripting happening with too many writers .... grrrr ....

S2 didn’t sleep last night .... needed to skip family lunch to sleep enough to make the movie ..... right  ?

Guess again ......

Mr f&h has instructed him to stay awake for lunch and the movie (not happening ..... chance to sleep now reduced .... ) while he dashes off to the gym “for 15mins” .....

S2 couldnt stay awake now if he tried.  He won’t go to sleep in the car (1/2 hour while mr. is in the gym plus 1/2 hr drive to The Coffee Place would give him at least an hour) and his response to being pressured like this is to shut down.  Then he won’t wake to go for lunch, pushing that into running us late for the movie ..... where he will likely fall asleep if we can get him there .....

Sitting here watching this implode.

Can I do anything ?  Nope ..... will just cause a nuclear fall-out .....

Is this anything new ?  Nope .... quasi-usual roller coaster .....

So what am I doing ?  A jigsaw puzzle .....

Some sort of lunch will happen.  Some of us will get to the movies.  

C’est la vie ....
