What I Did On Saturday

Burger and Fries at Hungry Andy's in Fell's Point

My husband and I busted out for the day again. We’re really getting used to being people again separate from being parents. We hit the Inner Harbor, Fell’s Point, then wound our way back towards Harrisburg the back way going through towns we’ve never been through before, and did some things around here then made sure we… read more »

When Schools Won’t Do Right by the Kids

I know I’ve written about our struggles with the Midd-West school district before. It was pre-autism diagnosis, but we still had A diagnosis, no 504, no IEP, and MANY MANY issues. Suffice it to say that my now 5th grader is still scarred from the bullying he endured in Kindergarten and 1st grade in that… read more »

Lancaster Brewing Company

Beer sampler LBC

My husband and I got to go out – alone – for the third time in three years. We had talked about trying a Thai place. We had talked about going to Five Guys. We really didn’t know where to go. We’re not used to being able to go wherever we want. We ended up at Lancaster… read more »

Breakfast with Santa at Hershey’s Chocolate World

First, no one paid me to write this. I’m doing this because we had an awesome time and I want to share for my local readers. I can’t reiterate enough how much this was AWSOME (overall)! Before we even got there, we got our parking pass for the day, a letter with detailed instructions, and… read more »

My husband will tell you that nothing compares to Weyerbacher’s Imperial Pumpkin Ale, but I’m making him try some others just to see anyway. Who… read more »

Tropical Storm Lee Remnants Wreak Havoc on PA

Everyone was worried about Irene. Rain. Tropical storm force winds. We all battened down the hatches by putting away anything we could that wasn’t pretty much tied down outside. Little did we know what was on the way. Lee. These remnants from Lee are creating flooding along the Susquehanna river that are record breaking. The… read more »

Wordless Wednesday Goes to the Fair

There really are no words for someone sitting in a baby stroller smoking waiting for a child to get off a kiddie ride at the fair.

A Week in the Life….

So where was I all week? Well, we were booked with appointments for the boys all week. At least two a day until today. Well, today was technically two appointments, but it was at the same doc, so we only had ot make one stop and be seen once. We squeezed in checkups, ABA therapy,… read more »

Tornado Safety Fail

Last night, the warning system was bad. Sure, our cable broke into our TV. Not just the news breaking in, but that gray screen that they do the monthly tests for – yeah, THAT emergency alert screen. Before the storm, I not once heard the tornado sirens in town nor on post. Not once. My… read more »
