Poop Day
It’s garbage day tomorrow. That means diapers and cat litter need to be taken out of the house and put into the garbage bin. All that poop is my responsibility. I have almost no sense of smell which is a small blessing on poop day. It mostly stays pretty contained during the week which is…

The poop has left the building
It’s Wednesday and tomorrow they collect garbage from our bins. Once a week I remove the diaper garbage and clean the cats’ litter boxes. I throw away a lot of poop. Someone has to do it.

Three Beers In
Stephanie let me sleep this morning. Ben didn’t but she let me go back to bed after he was done with me. Diaper and soda first thing in the morning. What a life. But today has mostly been mobile games in between the job of taking care of my adult disabled autistic children. The struggle…

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.

Hopefully today will not require anything that requires motivation. I still had to change a diaper. There are so many…

Disabled Adult Children
Do you enjoy your job? Two of my sons are disabled adults. My wife and I love them and will care for them as long as we are both able. We are currently getting reimbursed for their care. That is my “job.” Changing diapers every day is awful but at least I don’t have a…

I Should Be Reading
I have done a lot today. I’ve dealt with the trash and diapers. I’ve made food for the boys. I’ve encouraged them to pick up and entertained them. I’ve done art and blogging and social media and video games. I’ve helped with groceries and Zoomed into a church leadership meeting. I have been very busy…
