Calendars
Tonight I changed my son’s diaper, gave him his pills, turned off his light, and said Goodnight. About ten minutes later he walked into my room holding my Stephanie’s calendar. You probably know it’s turned September half an hour ago. He insists that the calendars be changed before he goes to bed on the eve…

So much poop…
This morning was poopy, literally. I’ve talked here before about how my youngest son with autism has to turn on every single lightbulb in the house when he wakes up. I’ve also probably mentioned that he is incontinent and wears a diaper everywhere but baths. He had diarrhea when he stomped around the house turning…

Sleeping Too Far In
It’s afternoon and I just got up and started doing things. I’m a scraggly mess. But I’ve had breakfast and given pills. I tried to explain a meme on Discord but the person asking wanted to video chat. My phone is already problematic for that on the website. Maybe I can do it on my…

Not so nice dreams
Many years ago before I realized that in order to succeed at college being smart wasn’t enough, I failed out several times. I could blame it on depression or maybe just laziness, but the fact is I didn’t do the work. I don’t think I’m ever going to be sufficiently motivated to get a degree.…

I’m Being Published
A while back I wrote a poem and submitted it for publication. The submission guide included a request for an author’s note about what motivated the piece. I just heard back today that the poem was rejected but that they want to publish the “essay” about it. So unexpected, weird, and awesome.

Hottest Night of the Year
There’s an Anne Murray song that goes, “You make the hottest night of the year a little bit hotter. Ain’t gonna be no cooling down… As long as we keep fooling round.” It’s definitely too hot to be fooling round. It’s hot and humid and reminds me of the summers I spent in Maryland. I…

So Far So Good
I got a decent night’s sleep. I got the boys dosed, fed and one of them out the door. I got some stock art approved. I’ve played my mobile games and am having some coffee. I’ve got to make a phone call today (yuck) and read some of Stephanie’s poetry (yay). It should continue to…

Meatloaf
My mom makes the best meatloaf. It was a treat growing up so maybe it’s just the nostalgia. It’s got protein and grain. Today I added a little sour cream to increase the dairy. She makes it with milk so it already has some of that. She makes a meatloaf sauce with ketchup, mustard, and…

Her Day Off
Saturdays are Stephanie’s day off from caregiving. I mean technically we are both “on call” for the children 24/7, but there are certain days we don’t bill, and it’s the other person’s responsibility unless there’s an emergency. Today is my day to work and to bill and her day to sleep. Theoretically anyway. We were…
