Latter Day Sinner

It has been a hard day for everyone in my family. But decisions have been made and it’s affecting everyone around those decisions. So I’m a little edgy today. But this post isn’t about our big problems, it is about a very specific small one. I have been able to successfully ration soda for the house for several months. My youngest boy has not found the hiding place. So we have a lot of soda cans. I have been putting them on a window sill in the kitchen, but the back of it is slightly raised. Instead of putting them flat on the sill the boy pushes them all the way to the back so that they lean out and pushes them against each other in a straight line of Leaning Towers of Pisa. This is typical autistic behavior and I have not had any luck correcting it. All this means that when I try to move the cans to the garage to crush them, they all fall at once. This annoys me. Today it made me angrier than I should have been. I did not crush the cans cleanly after I had picked them all up. But they are crushed and I got some of my aggression out.
