Yup. Spring has sprung. You can tell because the buds are out on the trees, the crocuses are popping in the garden and my son Owen is whining, sobbing and impossible to please. Oh yes - spring is such a joy (not!).
Dh and I spoke last night and agreed to increase his R. We started by increasing from .25/2X day to .50/2X day.
Today was a better day. Less opposition, no sobbing (thank goodness!) and no stomping around. Owen is still banging, clanging and tapping on everything (makes m crazy!) and is extremely needy of my attn (negative attn is the best). We may need to go up some more. I think w'll give it a week and see...
Anyon else coping w/ the 'seasonal effect'?
