I'm really proud of Gavin because not only did he have a great day, he's also been drawing in his sketchbook again.  He spent some time today drawing.  It's been awhile since he's done that.  This is a really positive thing for him.  Not only is he pretty talented, he really enjoys doing this.  During his recent psychotic break, he was so wrapped up in his visibly challenged friends that he let go of many of the things that kept him grounded in reality. Drawing was one of those things and writing is another.  Lizze and I really encourage him to embrace and build upon these talents because perhaps, it's something he can support himself with in the future.  Fantastic job Gavin.  :-) This site is managed almost exclusively via…

Today has been super productive.  Although I discovered that I'm locked out of my iPAD because iCloud hasn't backed up or something in two weeks.  I can't even power it off until I plug it in, while connected to wifi. I won't have wifi until later this week.  PITA I got my Skype meeting done and have my Internet almost ready to be installed. Gavin got a shower and we're enjoying the time before we head home and I have to get back to video editing.  Fun fun...... So far, today's been really good.  I'm hoping you are all having a good weekend as well.  :-) This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired Visit the My Autism…

In the morning, I will be taking Gavin to get his IVIG Infusion at Akron Children's Hospital.  This will be the priority for Monday.  Once the infusion is behind us, I will switch gear to other things.  As part of my new job, our Internet should be restored soon. That's awesome because T-Mobile has not fixed the problems in our area yet. I'll talk more about this new job in a later post.  Just know that this is a very good thing for my family.  This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me

While the boys were gone today, Gavin was building with Legos. He built this spaceship but didn't say much more about it besides it has thrusters. I'm not sure what, if anything is his source of inspiration for this one. It does look pretty cool and I promised him that I would share it with you all, as soon as I could. Please feel free to leave your positive feedback. He lives to hear what you think. :-) This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me

The other day I took a really good picture of Maggie, our English Staffy. She's absolutely amazing and looks after our family. I thought I would introduce her to those of you that haven't met her yet.

It appears that Emmett is heading into another flare.  It's actually been a few weeks since the last full-on fever flare. He has a really large sore on the middle of his tongue. Ironically, he doesn't seem to be in any significant amount of pain so that's a blessing.  Hopefully, this will pass quickly or even stop all together.  Since his flares reappeared about 2 months ago, the pattern has been erratic and not at all like we were accustomed to. At this point, we take it one flare up at a time.  Emmett's still smiling right now and so that's all that matters.  This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired Visit the My Autism Help Forums…

Lizze is really sick today. She went to bed around 7pm last night and woke up about 12 hours later. She was up for about 2 hours this morning before succumbing once again to sleep. I have a project I have to try and finish today for the GPS Tracker project. Elliott and Emmett will be going to Lizze's parents this afternoon and then spending the night. Gavin on the other hand, will not.  This is part of his consequences for yesterday's massive tantrum. The boys will have a break from Gavin and Gavin will have a break from the boys. I'm really hoping to get some things accomplished.  There is no Internet connection on my phone yet and I'm gonna post this while at the post office this afternoon. …
