Today is already Tuesday (and only Tuesday!) and I feel that I've been gone forever.
Saturday was productive. Out of the list of to-dos I had, we finished at least 4 of them and started or got well into another 2 of them. The rest will have to wait until this weekend (ie: the rest of the fence being stained and the weed extermination).
Sunday was good, we went to both services at Church. And I should have posted on Sunday because there was something great that I heard/thought because of the service and now I can't recall :( If I think of it I will post it another time. But either way: God is GOOD. Always.
Monday was our second week at Co-Op and a local new friend has started to attend also. She has two children, an 8 year old and a 10 year old. Her son (the 10 yo) is on the autism spectrum - but where I couldn't tell you - and he gets over stimulated easily. We worried some that the new atmosphere and the amount of kids (and people in general) might cause him to have an anxiety attack but he did surprisingly well. Her daughter, so far, is a typical 8 yo (as typical as one can be with living with a brother with autism)- she's super sweet and surprisingly (or not so surprising maybe) mature for an 8 yo. We didn't bring a potluck contribution this week so we had pb&j sandwiches made with the bread I made on Sunday. We came back home and picked up 40 lbs of flour from a generous friend from church that is moving soon and trying to lighten their packing. We will definitely miss them! I'm so grateful for the flour as I was down to my last 5 lb bag and would have had to buy more shortly. God is good :) & she is nice too ;)
Today is Tuesday (lol in case you'd not figured that out yet!) and I feel that the week has zoomed past already -then I catch myself and realize it has really just started! I am still waiting on two books for one of my classes so worry that I will fall behind. Fortunately, he's emailed everyone the first week's reading materials. Perhaps he is aware the books are backordered. I've not even started the other class other than to look at the 'homepage' for the class. Last week I did do the first assignment but haven't actually 'turned it in'. Well, I do think that all is going well.
Today for the kids' school they've done well and are moving along well. I will most likely do Weekly Wrap-Ups for that on Friday (unless I periodically get a moment- like now!). The Monthly Barden will be up hopefully by October 15th! Keep an eye open for it!
I know what you mean. This week is goin by fast even though it is tuesday it just seems like my days are flying.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking that today feels like Friday! Oh well... At least you have been productive, and I'm glad to read the little one did well in co-op. Us mothers with children on the Spectrum spend a lot of time holding our breath when something is new. It must be a very welcoming place.
