Family Shopping Trip
Stephanie, our two youngest sons, and I took a trip to Target. I like these trips. They get us all out of the house. They get the boys out into the community. And they put our family in context locally. Well, maybe not the last one. I’d be surprised if anyone remembers us going to…

Iced Latte no ice
Stephanie went to Dunkin Donuts to get coffee for the two of us. I usually get a hot latte, but today they said the machine was broken. They could somehow still make iced lattes, so my wife got me one of those instead. I am not a fan of ice in my drink. It makes…

Long Friggin Day
I woke up very early this morning, but I’m in a good mood because I also had a lot of coffee and two micro doses of THC. I am caffeinated and mellow and posting here is the last daily habit to check off. The morning started slowly. Magic jumped into my lap, purred, and groomed…

Autism can be Violent
Most days I like the idea of having more kids. Today is not one of those days. I used to tell them, “No blood, no bruises? Drive on!” This week there have been blood and bruises. My kids are not inherently violent but they are also not inherently good at regulating themselves so that they…
