I may have mentioned this already, but back in March our state’s vaccination schedule removed any exception for disabilities and went to an age only schedule. My age came up on March 1st. It took me three days of constant searches and 1000 websites to schedule my two doses. Yes, the 1000 websites is an […]
I will be the first to admit that I can get carried away with DC’s birthday. Much like Christmas, it was a long time before he actually “got it” and when he did, he was all in and so was I. When he got to be an adult, I stopped calling his birthday get-togethers “parties” […]
We are now heading toward celebrating DC’s 2nd pandemic birthday. I feel awful because he is still waiting for his make-up birthday with his friends from last year because who knew back then we would still be in the midst of a pandemic. At the time I thought we would be able to celebrate “properly” […]
It has been a minute since I have written anything. I would not have imagined, being home for so long that I would not have the time to write. I cannot really say where my time is going, but it is. Also, our internet has been torturous over the last few months and not having […]
(AKA: Quarantine Diaries – Part 21) As you may or may not know, DC LOVES Halloween. He looks forward to Halloween just as much as he looks forward to Christmas. We really don’t know what Halloween will look like this year but I better think of something because DC is READY! I don’t know if […]
DC always enjoyed the costume and candy part of Halloween, but it took years before he really understood the waking around to get said candy and years after that before he understood that he could not walk into people’s houses. He could not understand why we were ringing the doorbell and not going in. Halloween, […]
After DC got over the initial anxiety of “the sickness” and staying home, I mentioned that I was seeing so much growth in him during the time we have been home. He would see dishes in the drainer and put them away – without me asking. He then moved on to just doing the dishes […]
I usually use my other blog (Take Another Step – Life With DC) for posts that use my Facebook/Twitter page posts, but I decided to use them here since most of it has already been written and truth be told, it is easier. On Tuesday, August 4th we were hit with tropical storm Isaias. Day […]
We had a storm and lost power (more about that later in Part 16). The power was restored but the WiFi was not. DC, already on edge about the power going out, could not cope with the WiFi being out after everything was supposed to be back to “normal”. My friend Peg mentioned that […]
Did I really need a planter that resembles a log? Or rainbow hanging planters? No. I won’t list them all but looking back, I do have to question just what I was thinking when I ordered some of the items I have ordered over the last 4 months. Not that there is anything wrong with […]
To Bodly Go…. 
Before the days when Star Trek costumes were available to purchase…
