Wisdom for Wednesday

lucylee, dgs22 with A sperger's also has a great memory. He has always loved music and when he started to read, he would read the titles of songs on a cd and who it was written by. Then when he heard a song, he would tell you the title and songwriter. Dgs went to a Christian school from 2nd grade through 5th grade. At the time that was great but when he went to public school, the social aspect really was apparent. Plus, he was diagnosed in 7th grade and as dd1 says, he doesn't identify himself as A sperger's. So I think it's better for you to know now about your dgs and hopefully being younger and knowing more about the A utism spectrum will benefit him. I keep meaning to tell you how impressed I am that he is so interested in geography and with how much he has learned at such a young age.

helia, she chose a major in computer science to begin freshman year, and planned a minor in art. You may remember, she didn't submit a portfolio last year. But she has taken some art classes. Now she's submitted the portfolio for sophomore year, and if accepted can consider herself a part of the College of Art and Architecture as well as College of Computing and Informatics, and possibly options open up for major/minor or double... I don't really know how this will pan out. But since her sister changed her major 4 times in her 3.5 years, finally to comp sci with minor in comp eng, this seems par for the course for us. Her counselor, on the other hand, gave her a speech about guarding her chances for the large salary comp sci grads might expect.

My WTF is done: the donation solicitation. SUCCESS! Library returns and check outs done also. I have caught up on emails and investigated day 6 of shore excursions. Also some procrastination. Need to do cat care, me care, and daily stuff. Oh,and maybe eat dinner. The shift key on my keyboard is flaky.

Flooding has schools closed roads taking a hit and mud slide caused a train to de-rail.
