To wish this letter would write itself ?

Have been sitting here for a lot of the evening, in between moving furniture, trying to write a letter to DS1's school after yet another phone call from them.

Ok we know he has ODD, he is being assessed for ASD in October.

The school call me to tell me he is not acheiving to the level he is capable of, he is misbehaving in class etc and I need to write to them to get them all working from the same page as me.

BUT
1- my hand keeps hurting as I write
2- my handwriting gets scruffy
3- it keeps ending up jumbled.

Can't you E-mail it?
Or plan it on the computer and copy it by hand?
Or just go in and talk to them?
Don't understand why it has to be written (sorry if I'm being stupid!)

It is just things that need to be dealt with tbh and yes I could do it on the computer then go and print it off etc but I need it to get to school in the morning.

Doesn't really need to be hand written...just it is quicker

My handwriting is disgraceful, honestly. It gets worse as I write too, and my hand starts hurting, so I do have a lot of sympathy!
Must be very difficult knowing it's about something so important too.

Could you sleep and do it in the morning? New approach, feeling rested and all that?

TheLadyEvenstar · 28/09/2010 01:05

I have it all written out but it is so messy looks like DS2 has written it towards the end lol

My handwriting always looks like a spider has taken over Grin.
Will the school care? It's probably neater than you think.

TheLadyEvenstar · 28/09/2010 01:17

lol @spider taking over.

Oh how I wish I had a fountain pen handy I can write lovely with them lol

Well, I'm impressed, I have yet to meet anyone who can write well with a fountain pen. I either can't get any ink out or make huge splodges.

TheLadyEvenstar · 28/09/2010 01:34

lol oh no I write much neater with a fountain pen....oh well I am going to have to slip a note to school asking for an email address if poss otherwise it is off to shop to print letter off/
