Life in the Driver’s Seat (extended)

Oh little brother you are so cynical.

So a family I watch on YouTube is doing a Christmas card exchange. Sending them one tomorrow and they will send one back.

My husband’s OJT has been confirmed to be here. We are here until at least summer.

This is where my son has huge issues along with sensory processing.

This makes so much sense with things our son has troubles with... like unzipping a jacket. Something that I don't think a neurotypical child would have so much anxiety and stress over, he does, and then even when I help him to figure it out, it's still something he can't let go of easily and he teeters on the edge of a meltdown, even though he was able to get it off and do the task.... It's like his brain gets overwhelmed by things (the executive function process) and then can't even understand himself why it's bothering him because it lasts long after the event.

Thanks for posting this, she explains things very well.

5 years ago today my son was accepted for disability pension.

You are welcome. She has quite a few videos on topics that Autistic people face.

My son has delayed echolalia in some cases.

I got the insurance cheque from my dad’s life insurance today. My dad’s RIF was paid out to his sister and she paid his funeral and has sent the rest in cheques to my dad’s grandchildren, my son and my nieces.

So this coming Friday my husband will be home!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ So damn excited!!

I went into People’s today and I might settle on this Vera Wang ring for my dad’s insurance money.

I am super low energy today. So much to do and no energy or motivation to do it.

5 days until my honey comes back!

I know it probably didn't feel that way to you but it seems the time went by quickly.

I'm sure it will be wonderful when your family is all back together.

It's the honey countdown!! 😊

Happy for you that he's home soon.

Oh my gosh thank you!! Yes , we are so excited to all be together again.

It's the honey countdown!! 😊

Thank you! Yes, he is so excited to leave too because as you can imagine someone with ADHD stuck in a room for 82 days .

In 2 days my darling will be coming home ❤️

I really think it will be this ring but all will be revealed by this weekend. 

I figured out what my issue is with this platform. I am very very visual and a visual learner and it leaves very little in the visual dept . 

Not as many features either.

Thank you Chaga tea . I was getting a sinus infection, but two cups of tea later and I am getting better. 

Wow, lots of anxiety tonight . Breathe girl just breathe. Being tired is not helping. Just get through one more day girl you can do this. 

Tomorrow my darling husband comes home ! 😍😍😍😍🥰

I've never been a huge KISS fan, but I think Gene Simmons is a funny guy, and I've liked the song "Beth" since I first heard it on my college roommate's Monster Ballads compilation tape. 

My boyfriend hates KISS, but I wanted him to listen to "Beth," because I think it's an interesting song.

WELL.  I'd never seen the video for "Beth," and neither did he. I don't know if KISS was trying to be funny, but we both laughed our asses off. Especially when they were all stomping along in their enormous shoes.

Great song, though :)

I would say I am a big Kiss fan. 
 

The song is sad for me because it reminds me of all the times my husband has been away. But not many hours now. He might be home about 4 tomorrow. 
 

I am so stinking excited .
