I spent the day today with my best friend of 15 years at her home in Hamilton. Anyone who thinks subsidized housing via #OntarioWorks is living in luxury wouldn't last a day with what she puts up with. So let's talk about living on the "dole" @fordnation. My friend left an abusive relationship in 2015 with just the clothes on her back and her two girls. She spent 45 days in a shelter before getting housing. She had $681.00 a month to run a household. Groceries ate up a third.

Day 2 of #rto. Will it be a #notrain or #gotrain day?
Stay tuned to find out! Walked the whole length of this #gotrain to find a coach not set to a temperature I'd roast potatoes at.
I honestly don't know how these people dressed like it's the middle of February are coping.

Let's talk about autism & schoolwork, especially lengthy assignments; ones involving a series of complex tasks. Some teachers are more understanding than others. As I watch my kid struggle with yet another CAT where I've had to step in, I still question why IEPs are disregarded. Virtual school has seen the IEP ignored each & every quadmester. Nothing is modified. When my child advocates for more time the response is "do your best". There is no "best" here. My kid is struggling. We're both stressed out by all the work & keeping it all organized. Who else?
