  Learning point: Big projects are not always as linear as they seem. Sometimes, you have to do a little bit of each task instead of one big discrete task. It's less satisfying in some ways, because you can't ever seem to cross off the item on your to-do list. So I changed my to-do list from "Obtain Caterer" to "work on catering for 30 minutes" so I could cross something off.
  Learning Point: Always have at least one cheerleader, and a platoon of super-delegates when you can't do it on your own. Know your limitations. Share your box of chocolates with friends, and maybe, just maybe, be a rebel and try a mystery chocolate out of order. You just might like it. And if you don't, at least you can ask your friend to pass you one they think might be a caramel.

  I'm glad that you have managed to delegate some of the tasks. Hang in there, it will work out somehow.
  I just read your series about psychoeducational assessments and it was very useful. My 6 year old son will have one in a month or so.
