The boys slept through the night and that's awesome. Lizze and I were exhausted but managed to get some sleep. I'm not aware of anything going on during the first half of the week. Towards the end of the week, we will have calling hours and need to make arrangements for that. We've decided that we will not be taking the boys to calling hours. I'll explain why we made that decision in a later post.
UPDATE: https://www.theautismdad.com/2017/07/24/why-our-kids-with-autism-wont-be-attending-the-funeral/ Over the weekend, our family lost a truly amazing person. She was my Great Aunt and my Grandmother's sister. She was like a second Mother to my Dad, and a huge part of my life growing up. Please keep my family, especially my Grandmother, in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Thank you.
I don't know about any of you, but when we manage to get a break from the kids, we're usually completely exhausted. Thankfully, we get somewhat regular breaks, because the boys have very active Grandparents. That's an absolute blessing. Having said that, when we get a break, my wife and I are so far beyond tired, all we want to do is crash. When I go without sleep (or quality sleep anyway) for as long as I do, the first thing I do when the boys leave, is go to sleep. I know that I can't actually make up for lost sleep, but my body certainly tries. Whenever we get a break, we also face a conundrum. Do we rest, or get caught up on things around the house? Trying…
Lizze and I did something we haven't done in years. We binge watched Underworld, Underworld Evolution, Underworld Rise of the Lycans, Underworld Awakening, and Underworld Blood Wars. We were super lazy but it was awesome. I can't remember the last time we've done anything like this. Sometimes it's nice to do absolutely nothing, for much longer than we should. It's been a long, stressful week and I feel like we've earned a night of nothing. ☺
Life isn't easy on the best of days, let alone the rest. I know how hard it can be to continue moving forward when things get so overwhelming that it's hard to think straight. I've been there so many times, I should just by property and build a second house. Unfortunately, this is just the way it is sometimes, and there isn't anything we can do about it. The reality is, we're all going to have good days/weeks/months or even years, as well as bad ones. It's part of being human. When you toss in things like Autism or any other form of mental/physical health challenges, life becomes even more challenging than before. All we can do is take care of ourselves, our kids, utilize any available help, and trust…

The boys left a little while ago and we will have a break until sometime tomorrow. Lizze is currently sleeping and I've decided to catch-up on some work while I watch the Underworld series from the beginning. Underworld is one of my all time favorite movies. ☺ I don't think Lizze is feeling up to going anywhere tonight, and that's fine. A quiet night without bedtime battles sounds good to me. I've not been sleeping good and I can actually take something to helpe tonight. That sounds like a win to me. ☺
