My newest #Autism Awareness T-Shirt released: Starts at $10

I wanted to share with all of you my newest t-shirt design. This is focused on spreading the word about Autism Awareness Month. Aside from spreading Autism Awareness, my goal is to make these as affordable and accessible as possible. Today's release starts at only $10 and shares the message that "April is for Autism Awareness". This is one of my favorites and I hope you find it pleasing and something you would sport to show your support for Autism Awareness.

The Autism Awareness Challenge: Is @Canton_Ohio and the @CantonRepdotcom #Autism Aware?

The Autism Awareness Challenge It's really sad that my hometown doesn't invest in Autism Awareness Month, at least not that I can tell. The Canton Repository, aside from the article about me last year, never seems to take interest in the Autism Community. As one of the leading Autism bloggers around, I would love to think that the city, I call home, would be Autism Aware. Sadly, I don't believe that to be the case. The City of Canton and The Canton Repository will go all out for Hall of Fame Week, every single summer, but nothing for Autism Awareness. It's really sad, that retired athletes seem to be more important than our children's future. As I recall, there was at least one company that did something last year and I…

That’s going in the win column

Man oh man, do I feel like complete crap. Going on day #3 of being sick and I'm ready to start feeling better. Lizze, the amazing wife she is, let me sleep and relax all day Saturday. I slept for a few hours but my throat hurt too bad to sleep and I was drooling like a little kid that's teething. This is made more challenging by the fact that Elliott and Emmett are currently engaged in what could only be considered as world war 3. They're literally fighting over individual Lego pieces. On the positive side, they are eventually making their way downstairs to ask for help instead of taking things into their own hands. That's going in the win column.....

Taking back #Autism Awareness Month

Earlier I wrote a piece called, Why I've lost faith in Autism Awareness Month and What I'm doing about it. While I wasn't sure how my readers would take this, the positive response has been amazing. Apparently, I'm not the only one that is unhappy with Autism Awareness Month, in its current form and the organizations that use this month to raise money and overlook those they are supposed to be helping. Personally, I would like to see Autism Awareness Month mean something again. I would like to see, families get the attention, instead of the multimillion dollar companies, whoops......I mean nonprofits. I would love to see Autism families and adult Autistic's featured in the newspaper, if they wanted that of course. What better way for people to better understand…

Please stop the fighting

I'm trying to rest but the boys just keep fighting. I can't just lay down and leave Lizze to deal with that in her own. I'm not sure why they aren't getting along today but I wish they would pick a different day to wage war on each other. I'm miserable because I'm sick and Lizze is miserable because she's in pain. There's no break in sight and I'm just really hoping that they can find something constructive to do together. At this point everything we suggest or try is vetoed by the boys. I suppose they are at least together on that. :-( This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile.

From Man Cold to being full on sick

It's official, I've moved from Man Cold to being full on sick, most likely a sinus infection. I feel like crap but Lizze is taking really good care of me. I would be doing the same for her but in this case, she's working through tremendous amounts of pain to make sure that I take it easy. I'm hoping to feel better as the day goes on but I see a trip to Aultman North in my future. I'll probably need to be on antibiotics to clear up the infection. If I'm lucky, it won't come down to this. Anyway, if I'm not around as much, this is why. This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile.
