I can't recall if I've shared it here, or if I posted it someplace else, but Boyo is considered High Risk (depending on which professional you talk to) for Autism due to his early birth and family history. For awhile there we were pretty damn sure that a diagnosis was inevitable because his speech was … Continue reading Of ASD, Therapy, and Picky Eaters…
A Dire Situation…
Unfortunately I'm still having issues with my computer. The ram finally arrived, but it turns out that our precision screwdrivers - those tiny little screwdrivers you use for fixing glasses and things - have been pretty much thrashed by the Boyo's trains. He has two that we need to replace the batteries on fairly frequently … Continue reading A Dire Situation…
A Difficult Conversation…
I meant to post last week, but my computer had other ideas. Thankfully it's working now, and I've bought a new battery and some more memory in the hopes that that will help. I would get a new processor as well, but laptop processors really can't be replaced (sometimes, but not always), and honestly they're … Continue reading A Difficult Conversation…
Rain Rain Go Away…
My husband and I are pretty big pluviophiles. We love rain and cold weather, and if it were feasible for us to move somewhere where there was more of both (I'm looking at you Washington) we would be there in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, after the severe drought we've had for the past couple of years, … Continue reading Rain Rain Go Away…
In the Blink of an Eye…
Exhaustion has a new name - Toddler bed. Boyo managed to escape his crib last week. Apparently he decided that he did NOT need a nap one day and demonstrated it by climbing out of the crib and run around his room. Let me tell you, there is nothing quite like hearing the movement monitor go off (which usually … Continue reading In the Blink of an Eye…
Judah & the Lion…
I heard this band on the radio on Friday, and I promptly downloaded a couple of their songs. I've been listening to them on repeat ever since. https://play.spotify.com/track/4bRfMTaUtQn1QvowPx47ZD
Just a Bump in the Road…
I wrote so much over the holidays that my carpal tunnel started to act up. It's been over seven years since it's bugged me. I honestly thought it would act up while I was in school, but I guess clicking through power point pages isn't the same thing as typing. Where and how I sit when … Continue reading Just a Bump in the Road…
Something Different…
I hope everyone had a good Christmas weekend. We spent Christmas Eve with my side of the family, then we had friends over for a visit. Hubby tackled building a cardboard pirate ship... which was tougher than either of us expected. We should've known it was bad news when the instructions included a link to … Continue reading Something Different…
RIP Princess Leia
As a kid, I didn't really care for Princess Leia. Luke and Han and the Taun Tauns were my favorite parts of Star Wars. Who had time for a silly princess even if she wasn't a damsel in distress like so many others? But as I grew up and began to understand how important she … Continue reading RIP Princess Leia
A Fanfic Christmas…
We're hosting Hubby's family for Christmas, so we've spent the past few days cleaning and decorating in preparation. I've also been baking cookies - mostly macarons - for Christmas eve with my family. In between cleaning and baking, I'm usually tinkering around the laptop. I was bit by the writing bug big time over the … Continue reading A Fanfic Christmas…
