It’s 2am and sleep escapes me

It's about 2am and Lizze is in too much pain to sleep. I have a hard time falling asleep when I know she's not able to sleep.  So,  here I am at 2am, writing about not being able to sleep.  Right now, the stress and especially the weather is caused a really bad fibro flare and Lizze just can't shake it.  Mindless reality TV on Netflix......here we come.  This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Remember the magic of @Highlights

My grandmother, God love her, bought the kids sure subscriptions to Highlights. Do you remember Highlights? I used to love Highlights and they always helped me pass the time while waiting at the doctors office. Highlights was one of the coolest magazine ever and now my kids get to have the same experience. Apparently, now there is a Highlights for different age groups as well. Lizze spent some time this afternoon reading with Emmett. I haven't heard him giggle like that in a few days. He loved the hidden pictures and was able to find most of them on his own. Thanks Grandma..... You sure know how to pick'em. :-) Now I just need to find out if they cater to 34 years olds. :-) This site is managed via…

Thanks @PNCBank_Help for crushing my special needs family

UPDATE: I've been contacted by PNC's social media department and they want to help. I'm grateful for them reaching out and I look forward to speaking with them soon.  UPDATE 2: It was suggested that I post a transmogrified copy of the check along with the date it was cashed. Here you go. Please notice that date on the check, the date it was cashed and the "void after 90 days". PNC informed me that they don't honor the "Void after 90 days". If that's the case, what's the point of having it on there?   I don't make it a habit of using this blog to call attention to issues I'm having with a business or company.  However, every once in awhile,  we are impacted so severely by something…

Today’s #Autism Victory: Off to school

I wanted to present the Today's #Autism Victory award to one Mr. Elliott Richard.  Despite having been woke up at 4am by Emmett, he had a fantastic morning.  He got dressed and out the door with out much problem at all.  I'm really proud of him for his choices this morning. Great job Elliott, Daddy is sooooooo proud of you.  This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Good Morning

How's your morning going so far? Me? I was awoke from a dead sleep at about 4am due to Emmett John screaming his head off.  Turns out he was screaming at Elliott because Elliott had the nerve to be sleeping. Elliott handled it really well and just ignore or edit him. Emmett, undeterred by Elliott's ability to sleep through the screaming,  decided to take his screaming into our room.  Needless to say, the day began at the inhuman hour of way to friggin early.

A candle burning at both ends

Today has just been a really trying day. We haven't had much luck this week so far and we still have a long way to go.  Tuesday Therapy barely got off the ground but went out with a bang.  We had to cancel speech and OT this afternoon due to car problems.  That problem was a lack of fuel in the tank.  I don't even want to get into the reasons why anymore.  Gavin came home this afternoon and and was picked up around 5pm while we were at Dr.  Patti's. Before we could get into see Dr. Patti, Elliott was having a meltdown and Gavin was freaking out in his grandmother's car. Elliott's meltdown lasted about 45 minutes and basically killed the entire appointment.  I'm so exhausted right now. …
