IEP day is just a (few) day(s) away

So the rescheduled IEP is now on Friday, the day before Jimmy's 5th birthday. What a way to be legal and really lame at the same time. We kinda get forced to accept what they throw at us without time to look at other options since they DID not give us time to do so.
So, I know I haven't dedicated much writing to Jimmy's issues of late. I don't know what to say anymore. His speech has improved, but the sensory is a mess and his attitude sucks as of late. He likes the word NO a little too much and he says things that can only be described as mean. When you call him out on it, he says oops sorry and laughs. I don't know how much is age related, how much is repeating television and how much is from his issues.
We're still debating about if Jimmy should go to the same school as Bri for Kindergarten or just wait until first grade. I've gotten a lot of different opinions and when I try to talk to James about it, he just wants to wait until we see what the district has to tell us. I'd rather have some ideas what we'd like to see and what we could do, but now we have to wait. No one like having a battle plan I'm learning.
So, not much I can even say now. I got his medicine for his stomach so maybe he'll eat again. He really has not been eating. He'll eat the junk, but not the healthy stuff.
And I'm up to my eyeballs in cookie stuff right now for the Brownie troop. Who decided the product managers should collect the permission slips was defintely not thinking clearly. So I'm still chasing down people with our leader's help. Hopefully, getting the forms is much easier than this.
Or I'm going to be entering orders while drinking a martini again this year.
