Last week I saw a post about a Sabrina The Teenage Witch Virtual cast reunion. I went back and forth with myself for a day or two between – Will DC sit through a panel? Historically with the exception of the recent Star Trek Cruise panels, (which I am beginning to second guess myself about […]
In an effort of trying to keep this guy busy, we have been recording stories (and some songs) to post on our Facebook Page (Take Another Step). DC is having fun with it. If you follow our Facebook page, you may have seen some of these before, but maybe not all. I was looking around […]
Taking a break from the virus, lock-down, Quarantine Diaries and everything involving it to write about our last vacation. At this point, our trip seems as if it happened centuries ago, but it has really only been a couple of months. Please forgive any typos, run-on sentences or just utter incoherence as I seem to […]
DC woke up this morning with a “Happy Mother’s Day” for me. He then moved right in to asking what we are going to eat later. I made the mistake of telling him that we would try to get Chili’s takeout (HIS favorite place) for dinner so that is all he is interested in. He […]
In my Easter post (Quarantine Diaries: Part 3 – Easter in Lock Down) I noticed that DC, who is usually very calendar orientated, had not moved on to “What’s Next”. Shhh! We’ve officially passed the time of night on any given holiday when DC decides this one is over and begins to “remind” me of […]
Quarantine Diaries 1, 2 and 3 followed our lock-down in some sort of order (links to all can be found at the bottom of this post) My last post on this blog was written after week one, when I still had to go to work two days a week. (Week One of the World Shutting […]
Please understand that I am in no way complaining about or making light of the situation, but his blog is about autism; my son’s autism and the way his mind works and deals with things and that is just what I am going to write about. The first hurdle was my birthday (Friday the 13th). […]
DC called me from his van to tell me he is “Going Home Noooowwwww” as he does each day. The conversation is always the same (and I know you have read this before as he rarely goes “off script”) DC: Hi Mom ME: What are you doing? DC: Going Home Noooooowwwww ME: Did you […]
Tonight DC put away his computer and began his bedtime rituals… Moving his pile of 3 books from “their spot” at “his spot” at the kitchen table, to their “bedtime spot”. Moving his stack of papers from his kitchen chair “spot” to their “bedtime spot”. Putting his DVDs away. Taking off his “If I […]
In case a refresher is needed (or if you don’t read the other blog), DC is officially on overload with his Christmas Calendar of Events. “Mom, I am so excited for Christmas Eve with “Grandmother” “Mom, I am so excited for camp party” “Mom, I am so excited to go to “Straw-Bridge” with my friend, […]
