Alli managed to make it through one whole day of school yesterday. I kept waiting for my phone to ring (which it did constantly!) from the school asking me to come and get her. She was "okay" in the morning, but she isn't up for very long before I put her on the bus, so I really don't know how she is going to be feeling all day at 6:30 in the morning!

AJ even managed to get through a whole week at home with no video/computer games, too! He did spend a lot of time at the neighbors, though. We got a deficiency notice in the mail last week - he had a 44% in Algebra II - which is actually one of his favorite classes. It seems that he had never made up the work for the days he missed in January when he was sick, and he needed to re-take a test from that time too, since he failed it (and he was out due to illness) and had never done it. He was also missing assignments for his recent illness. Most of his classes had slipped to C's - mainly from not doing the homework. According to AJ, he has now brought all of his classes up to a B except for Algebra, and he has re-taken the test and is just waiting for the teacher to grade it. Funny how he can get all this done in a week! (if he has no games after school!) I think we found a solution! Now, to find a way to make it a workable solution - how much does he really get to play now?
