So i have neglected this poor little blog, only because i finally got our family a “real” blog, with its own URL and everything. i’ve been posting to it every day, and it actually has readers (ok fine, they’re family).
not much is new. i usually ask myself, “is this blog-worthy?” and sadly i do not have any blog worthy news in my life. Started back to work, i now get less sleep than ever. I can’t drink caffeine because it makes me jumpy. lame!
i signed up for NaNoWriMo even though i’m 99.5% sure i can’t come up with 50K words. I have a rough idea of a story but i don’t know how it ends and i don’t know what to call it. I sorta want it to take place in ireland but i’ve never been there personally so that would probably be fiction-suicide, right?
my one armed kid is awesome and beautiful. i’m still toe-ing the line separating “normal” and “disabled” and trying to figure out how much help and when to get it for him. i’ve also learned that parents, esp moms, of special needs kids are TOUCHY. now i know why people worry about offending others, because no matter what your intent or what you say, if that mom is having a bad day she will take it as offensive. we have it easy, our difference is obvious. the real suffering moms are those who have kids with invisible differences because those kids are still held to the same [judgemental] standards we have for the masses.
besides that, i can’t believe it’s fall and the year is almost over and where the hell is time going?
