It's 4:50 am and I sit here drinking my coffee is silence. My quite time before I wake everyone up. Robert has to work and Brandon has school.
Robert starts his summer hours today which means he will work 10 hour days and have off every Friday Saturday and Sunday, not a bad trade if you ask me.
Brandon only has three days of school this week before he goes on spring break so I only have three days to myself this week. B is looking forward to dying eggs this Saturday. I bought the kits, don't know why I bought two styles for a dozen eggs but I do it that way every year. B is getting a Sponge Bob Basket this year. Since he doesn't eat candy I picked up all kinds of little trinkets to put in it.
Oh I got to tell you..... I always get reports on how well Brandon is doing in school but I never get to see him do it himself. He carries a B+ in reading but never heard him read (he doesn't like doing it at home I guess) how ever he read to me this weekend. I was so proud of him. He even asked for help when he didn't recognize the word. My son can read woot woot !!
May seem silly to some but when your child is autistic and you get to see it and hear it for the first time, it's like I won the lottery.
B also got to go on his first atv ride this weekend. The family behind us have one and he was watching them all afternoon. Well Randy asked if he could give him a ride and promised to be very careful and Brandon really wanted to go how could say no. I grabbed the camera and he had a blast. Randy went slow and as he said was very careful with him.
Ok back to Robert, he seems to like his new job and I like the fact he works all days and has weekends with the family now, plus he gets all his holidays off.
Not much new with me ....still adjusting to my medication change (reason I crawled under my rock for a few) but getting better. At least I don't cry all day like I was doing. I have to be settled soon though there are only 5 weeks of school left. Wow schools almost out already seems like it just started.
Suppose to get cold here again, yep so I guess I might have to turn the heat back on for a few we'll see how it goes.
Ok got to wake the household have a great day all
Oh before I forget I need link to your journals. After I deleted my old screen name I can't get back into my old Journal to edit my favorites so please send so I can catch up on your lives. I miss that ......Thanks

Hey Diane....glad to see that you are back to journaling again. WAY TO GO on your son reading!!!! I think that is just sooooo awesome and as a parent I bet that was just music to your ears. I can't believe how fast the school year is going either....too fast!
Glad to hear that Robert is liking his job....good that he gets his holidays and weekends off....much more time with the family.
Glad to hear that you are doing better, hope the new meds work out for ya. I suffer from depression so I know all to well what it's like to be down and spend my days crying!
Big hugs
Angela
