A throat clearing tic has found its way into our household over the past few weeks and it’s driving the family rather bonkers. The tic has attached itself to Lego Lover and doesn’t seem to want to let go. Lego Lover has had various tics in the past. In fact, he probably always has some sort of tic happening. But this one is quite disruptive. It has been bad enough some nights that I hear this quiet throat clearning right through the night while he sleeps. One night we were eating dinner and there was hardly a sound aside from the tic. I think the rest of us were clenching our teeth to stop from saying anything.  Occasionally it’s just a bit more than one or more of us can take and words just fly out of our mouths. It matters not that it just feeds the tic. A grumble just has to be be made. Hopefully the tic will soon get bored of our family and move on to someone else for a while.
