When you walk into therapy on a MONDAY night, and exclaim that it’s been a looooong week…you just know it’s gonna be a night. And it sure was. I swear, sometimes just Saturday, Sunday and Monday feels like an entire week all in itself. Therapy went well, and we talked about a lot. But I …
These moments carry so much weight. Can I talk about it anyway? Read More »
Today was a fucked up day. And sometimes, there’s simply no other way to put it than that. It was not a good weekend…and I anticipated it to be as such. However, I did NOT anticipate it to be the actual absolute shit storm that it was. But sometimes, special needs parenting be like that. …
Well holy shit did this morning not quite get off to the best start. The kids woke up at 4am despite being extremely sleep deprived from their 2am wake up yesterday. Yes, I did say 2am. They are also both currently sick with a cold right now, so now I have 2 sick, sleep deprived …
Even now, in the “best I’ve felt in years”, coming off a high of 2 vacations back to back, I’m struggling. Even now, after a day that wasn’t all bad. A day that had its moments of hope and promise…I’m struggling. Struggling means a lot of different things for me. Sometimes, it means the most …
Any time I wake up, and my day doesn’t IMMEDIATELY start with coffee…it’s not a good thing. The kids woke us up at 5 this morning…which, yes, is better than 4am…but then my husband had (yet another) horrible migraine. So even though I was ready to get up and start my day at 5…he was …
Just like that, we’re back to our regularly scheduled programming. It doesn’t take long to get right back into the swing of things back at home, does it? Yesterday was my first full day back at home in 2 weeks. It was a typical Monday. Wake up. Take the 6 year old to school. Come …
Whew. After an absolute whirlwind of a past few weeks, we DID in fact make it to NY to visit my best friend. We flew there on September 11th, despite the threats of hurricane Lee, and have been fucking BUSY every day since. I got home from my Funding Love trip at like 4:30pm on …
It’s been a weird week. Not in a bad way, and I’ve been having a lot of “good” days. I have a huge update post that I’ve already half written, but I also want to write something right now that isn’t just “an update”. In extremely uncharacteristic fashion for me, I haven’t written in a …
I’m awake before the sun here in Florida this morning, and it’s travel home day. The hotel window overlooking my gorgeous view is fogged with humidity, as it is every morning. Still, I can see the sun making it’s way up and over the horizon. By some actual miracle, I was able to pack nearly …
Drinking coffee on a Disney bus, headed to Magic Kingdom. That’s what I’m doing right now. Yesterday was 22,000 steps of BUSY. We hit ALL 4 PARKS (a first for me), and had a really great day. We started the day at Animal Kingdom. I woke up the tiniest bit late, at 7:04, and we …
