Military Life, Autism, Parenting
Today’s post is brought to you by the lovely Varda from The Squashed Bologna: a slice of life in the sandwich generation. I do hope you’ll visit her blog and show her some love here. As you (hopefully) know, April is Autism Awareness Month. But around here? Well every day is really about Autism Awareness… read more »
I’ve been a tad melancholy and reflective lately, but here, laugh at me. I’m not quite over the trauma to laugh at myself quite yet, but I do appreciate what we did here that others will see the humor. In out infinite wisdom, the day before Easter, we woke up and I said, “It’s Saturday!… read more »
I know my blog readers are used to my being candid in my writings. My silence feels like I have stepped away from that. I feel like I just haven’t had the time. When I do sit down to write or to read other blogs these days, I tend to lean towards my list of… read more »
April began four days ago, and it’s taken me this long to write my yearly Month of the Military Child and Autism Awarenesss/Acceptance month post. I think there are a few reasons I’m struggling this year. Some of which stem from the reasons that not a lot has changed since last year. Let’s face it,… read more »
I won’t lie. I’ve been walking around with a heavy heart and a lack of faith in humanity for about a month now. It seemed like as soon as the Christmas merchandise hit the stores, people forgot all good manners and graces. Gone were, “please,” and “thank you.” Replaced instead by snip and snark.

These evaluations hold information that no other evaluations have ever told us before. We knew our younger son was highly intelligent. There’s never been… read more »
Mark this in your calendars. I sewed something this weekend. Granted it was just the end of two socks, usually the sewing of a button sends me into fits of gnashing my teeth and stomping my feet. I just do not like to sew. This time, I had an idea. I’ve heard how easy it… read more »
This is the first week of cyber school. It’s overwhelming with two children in different programs and all of the online stuff plus their classes, plus testing, plus evaluations, plus evaluators who don’t show up for said evaluations, etc. The last few days have taught me a few things. 1. I like not yelling at… read more »
You may have noticed a lot of sponsored posts and product reviews here lately and less content. I feel like I’ve been silenced on the content front. Strangled really. So, why not put my space to good use in the meantime since I do product reviews, eh? My kids can always use a new piece of sensory equipment. Oh,… read more »
