The day full of meltdowns

Today has absolutely been an off day.  Emmett has melted down countless times already and for seemingly no reason.  I mean I know there is probably a reason, I just don't know ow what it is.  One meltdown occurred as a result of him dropping a fruit snack on the floor.  That's all it took to trigger a 30 minute meltdown. It's been rough for him and it's been rough for me.  Lizze is incapacitated today once again,  so I'm basically on my own.  The sudden changes in weather have caused a massive fibro flare up, rendering her literally unable to move around much at all. She's is so much pain and there isn't anything we can do to help her.  For that matter, the fact that something is wrong…

Building a Marble World

Emmett has sorta pulled out of his funk and even stepped outside of his Spiderman costume.  Right now he's lost in Marble World. Marble World is a construction set made of tracks and tubes. When built it allows marbles to race through it. This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

The early morning meltdown

This morning started out really well and then all of a sudden, Emmett just seems to really be struggling.  We had our first meltdown of the day already and it's not even 7 am. I'm hoping to be able to turn things around after I get Elliott to school.  I haven't given up on the day just yet.

What I learned from Spiderman

For whatever reason, Emmett decided that he was going to dress up as Spiderman today. Everywhere we went today, he was Spiderman.....and I mean everywhere. I'm of the opinion that I was lucky to be in the presence of Spiderman today.  Emmett was so cute and so happy being Spiderman today.  Who was I to take that away from him.  He wasn't hurting anyone, unless you were a bad guy at which point he trap you with his webshooters. Other than that, he wasn't hurting anyone.  :-) I look at it like this. Can it be weird walking into a store while Emmett was in his costume? Sure.  Do people stare at me like I'm crazy for letting him out of the house like that? Of course they did. However,…

Thirty Day Water Challenge: Day 2

I just finished up day 2 of the Thirty Day Water Challenge.  Today I drank about 64 oz of the clear stuff and stayed away from anything else.  The whole point is to drink only water for 30 days. So far so good.   This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Operation Hope: Where is Gavin?

It's been awhile since I have updated you all on how Gavin is doing. I don't talk very often about him right now because I have mixed feelings about this whole thing.  When you find yourself faced with having to choose between one of your kids and the rest of your family, the line between right and wrong becomes so blurred that it essentially disappears. The fact that Gavin is my adopted son doesn't make these decisions any easier, I assure you.  Gavin's been living with his Grandparents for about 4 months now.  For all intents and purposes, he doing really well.  Recently, even his health seems to have settled down, at least to my knowledge.  I hate saying,  at least to my knowledge.  I feel like I should know…

Thirty Day Water Challenge: Day 1

I've made it through the very first day of the Thirty Days of Water Challenge. Yesterday I drank only water. By the end of the first day, I had consumed roughly 64 oz of H2O. The goal of this challenge is to drink only water for thirty days in a row. I've always been a big milk drinker so this is a bit of a challenge for me personally.  However, this is a simple way to start improving my health and I'm giving it my all.  Day 1 down,  29 to go.  :-) This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.
