Something that Elliott and Gavin’s school is doing is called The Penny War. Each classroom is trying to collect the most pennies. You can also put dollar bills, nickels, dimes and quarters into another classrooms pot.  For example, if a classroom get a $1 bill in their pot, they loose 100 pennies.  Hence the phrase Penny Wars. Anyways, when all is said and done, the money will be counted, converted into cash and donated to a family in need.  This is one war that I support.  In fact, we been arming Elliott's classroom with ammunition.  We've done the same for Gavin's classroom for years.  Now it's Elliott’s turn.

The Lost and Tired family will be saying goodbye to adderall. Elliott has only been on it for about 2 months, however, he's already not eating and is continuing to lose weight. Adderall is something that can be stopped on a dime and discontinued.  We will discontinue this beginning today and get in touch with his psychiatrist and pediatrician as well.
