I finally figured out how to turn off custom comment pages on DW. Boy, am I slow.

I have gotten a lot of writing done! I'm almost finished with the second draft of my Kirk/McCoy fic. It still needs a lot of work, but the scenes are coming along well.

Meg's support plan is a mess. She's been given 5 1/2 hours a week of personal care, which is NOT ENOUGH. There's like, three hours of respite in there a week, too. Still, not enough. Working with her new support coordinator is like pulling teeth. Her old support coordinator quit in December, and we've been stuck with this new one since then. I don't like her at all. She's not as committed as Nora was, and supplies aren't coming on time and UGH. It's hard enough to deal with the day to day stuff; I hate having to worry about services, too.

(for those who are new to my journal, Meg is my 13 year old daughter. She has autism, cerebral palsy, and profound mental retardation)

Now I will write a little more before Meg gets home from school. Thank you to everyone who has been cheering me on! ♥

Is there anyone over the Support Coordinator's head that you can discuss the issues with? That's just not right.

Any chance of requesting a (re)evaluation of what is required and/or should be provided? I'm not sure how the system works, but maybe some sort of leave for feedback/appeal on their decision?

Pompom on success or improvement in what they offer!

Also, re: custom comment style, it took me a while to. Was bashing my head in trying to find an optimal way to present [community profile] trek_kink once the comments started threading together and took FOREVER (and an outside suggestion) to get the custom comment page disabled.
