Seven-Layer Salad Saturday

[Lauralind]

I hope so too. I think I am a little unsure yet of how to explain it all to ds. I told him atm it was doing some investigation to help him further to manage his challenges with the future in mind. I have not let on he's autistic. I don't even know if he needs to directly call it that as I don't want to make him think less of himself. Over time maybe. I think what I want out of it is to learn ways to help him manage emotions and relate to people in appropriate manner. I've just submitted to join a Facebook group for parents of high functional teens.

I did look at the info package. It's all how to find support and funding. Tje specifics of him are still coming in the report in a few weeks. So it wasn't overly anything new and unless the school thinks need of funding I don't think I need to go that far.

A few more details and I can move on.

On the subject of Old People Food, Bama, have you tried pudding lately? Wow, is that stuff good! I don't know if it's a case of Old People Know, or if it's just that I got old too, LOL.

Greetings and cheers, SHEpeople! I will CUOP, but for now I have found my energy and want to use it before I lose it.

Haha Dogged! I am a huge fan of pudding and I LOVE hospital jello. Don’t ask me why it has to be hospital jello but it does. I think for me it’s that I didn’t like my different foods touching each other and who puts cold peas in a salad when peas should be eaten warm. I was so naive.

Did I mention all of my animals are experiencing blow outs from one end or the other. Hence my icky house. Dh just got home with pizza but I’m not ready to eat.

Next 3:
Vacuum
Load dw
Shine sink

[Bama]

Normally I would mop next but dh is underfoot and all grumpy attitude so going to eat something

Heat pancakes
Make coffee
Eat and sip

[Lauralind]

Oh no Bama I completely get the pet mess house feels gross. Been there. So far so good. Might be a few little spots. Stella is getting better but maybe it's all her in random places. The litter box in the bathroom is definitely getting used. Plus I just swept cause I could feel the sand underfoot. Thanks Casper . Oh and I am expecting his coat to blow out soon too.

Doggedly way to go finding the energy.

What next. I'm going in an hour or so. Take mom out with my sister. I should keep my energy moving in here too.

Laura, that’s good news about Stella. Don’t remind me of shedding. I actually got my dogs pretty well groomed in the fall so minimal fur inside and now it’s going to happen all over again. Enjoy the girl outing.

Listened to Acts while I ate so can mark that off for today.

Hi Everyone! Back from cheerleading. We have about 2 hours before we go to the graduation party and I am tired…. Lots of driving and an early start… we left the house at 5:40. I am pushing water for DD32 as well helian. I wouldn’t start with trying to get 50-60 oz in to start. If she isn’t drinking much I have found it easier to try to add to it 8-16 oz at a time. To be honest it is hard for me to keep track of how much DD32 is drinking and I am around her for at least several hours a day. I am glad the testing went well, Laura. At least here in the states the testing can help with funding for job coaching etc once your DS graduates if he needs it.
