I swear to God,  sometimes I just want to give up and just stop.  Life is so full of frustration for me at times that I just can't cope with it anymore.  There is always and I mean always something that comes up or something that we have have to work around. I wanted to take the kids to the park and let them have some fun, but Lizze can barely walk because of her knees and so I would have to do this on my own.  In the frame of mind I'm in, I don't think it's a good idea for me to try this on my own.  I'm tired and don't feel well and these guys are so full of energy and anxiety, that they would be all…

I've been blogging for almost 3 years now and I have to say that the hardest part of writing for me, is coming up with a unique title. Sometimes the title is obvious and other times, not so much. A good title is so important that it almost can't be overstated. Typically, I write the content of the blog post, prior to crafting a title because it works out a bit easier for me. How do you all create a title for your posts that doesn't over promise and under deliver? This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile.

Still not feeling well here.  Having said that, I'm full of warm fuzzies right now.  Why, you might ask? Simple. My boys are getting along today. It's not like they never get along.  It just seems like lately, they are fighting more often than not.  So on a day that I feel like I'm dying, seeing them get along is a huge win for me.  I'm a realist. I know it's not going to last forever. Having said that, I'm the kind of person that likes to celebrate a victory and to me, this is a victory worth celebrating.  :-) In this picture, the boys are goofing around with a pair of silly glasses.  This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by…

Tonight I'm feeling pretty crappy.  I don't know if it's allergies or a head cold but I'm completely exhausted after a week full of bad news. I think this week has taken its toll on all of us, especially Lizze. Obviously, I would never presume to speak for her but I would imagine that she's feeling pretty overwhelmed, scared and probably a bit confused by all this new information we learned this week. Personally, I'm really worried about her. Menopause at the age of 32 is not a good thing at all.  Even more concerning is why this is happening and what if anything, we can do about it.  To my knowledge, the only thing that we can do hormone therapy. The problem is that she has a history of…

Guys and gals, I'm writing now to call in a favor.  In short, I need your help.  Lost and Tired is an ever growing site and while it generates zero dollars, it does afford me connections that allow me to better reach out to the community and give back.  Lost and Tired requires an enormous amount of time and effort on my part and the main reason for this is to help ensure that my kids have a better, more compassionate and we'll informed world to grow up in.  While my family is my top priority, the benefits reach far beyond walls of my home and extend into the community around us.  Lost and Tired has never been a money maker, as that was not it's purpose.  One of the…

This is sorta out of left field but I wanted to ask this question of my readers because I truly believe that we are mature enough to consider this topic of different perspectives. The topic of curing #Autism is an emotionally charged one for sure.  There are so many people out their that would even consider the notion of a cure to be insulting to those with Autism.  I can totally understand where they are coming from and I completely respect their position. In most cases of Autism, or at least a large number of cases, kids are Autistic from birth and diagnosed a bit later in childhood.  However, there is a subset of children that seemingly develop just fine, hitting all milestones and then one day, something happens. I'm…
