Okay here is a quick(ish) summary of my son’s schooling. So we had done some online schooling, home schooling and what is called unschooling. I had hesitated to write about it before because I feared judgement. I was basically letting him work on what he wanted to work on. I knew he was seeking out […]

Super Kids
·WOW it has been too long. I keep thinking I need to come on here to write an update on my son but then I just get side tracked. But today I have a SUPER important mission!! I need 27 bags sponsored for some SUPER KIDS ! I love this event because it lets these […]
Not autistic enough
People have asked why I don’t blog as much anymore. I got tired of fighting. I got cussed out once- yeah once by a parent who told me I had no right to say anything because I wasn’t autistic enough. My kid wasn’t autistic enough. That shit hurts. Not that I even know what autistic […]

Life is too short
·Everyone says that but after my previous health issues I just can’t… I can’t be manipulated I can’t deal with backstabbers I can’t go spend time with people who make me feel miserable (and yes I understand no one can make me feel anything but if you are here reading this I hope you understand […]

Homeschooling
I was fired. Really – he told me I wasn’t qualified. He requested a private tutor so I found one. Sheldon then informed me he needed to start High School over. He was to be a Senior this year but was pulled out of the brick and mortar school in 9th grade. He didn’t believe […]
Gretchen’s fundraising
I don’t blog enough. Sometimes the words just won’t come… Sometimes my brain moves too fast. Too fast for me to catch the streaming thoughts. There have been lots of thoughts, lots of changes. I was laid off this week. But through this I am learning so much. I know I will be okay. I […]
Love Hate Puzzle pieces and blue
I hate Autism speaks and everything they stand for. I get it why the puzzle piece is offensive. I really do. The whole blue thing irritates me- I am dreading april. Your blue lights do nothing for my child. And cram your cure, scare-tactics agenda up your ass!! But yesterday I was at an event. […]
