I am so sorry I haven't been able to write lately. My computer has crashed, and like they sing on the "Phantom of the Opera"..... "this is the point of no return" It will probably be another week before I can replace it. So please bear with me!
I will be back then to catch you all up!
Until then.....

Day #22
Hello everyone,
What an interesting night we had in our little world. Max gave himself another bloody nose, he thinks its funny. I frantically race to the sink to wash his hands and face off while he giggles uncontrollably. He looked like he'd been playing with finger paints when he came to me laughing. I can't say for sure if he was the cause of this bloody nose, but the first on he ever got was self inflicted because he was picking his nose. Yes, I know its not a good habit to start.... Something we are working on fixing. He knows better because as soon as I look over at him he puts his hand down... until I look away. I said, "Stop that, your nose will bleed again!" He just grins at me. What I can't figure out is why it doesn't scare him like so many other things that happen out of the ordinary.
There's never a dull moment around here most days. Max's most recent obsession is Lady GaGa. Her new song is called Bad Romance. We listened to it 28 times yesterday. Now its stuck in my head like that song "Aruba" from the 80's. I've been walking around all day saying La La ooo La La Ra Ra ooo La La Ga Ga ooo La La blah blah blah.... If only the important things of my days could be set to music, maybe I'd never forget them. "La La schools out at 2, Ra Ra, respite at 4" hmmm doesn't seem as catchy though.
I am going to start sharing with you all stories of some of my friends that have autistic children. There are so many kids that struggle and I think what they go through is worth writing about. I may have mentioned that in an earlier post, if so I apologize... but soon I will be putting those together. I have a friend here in my town that has 3 autistic sons. Many of you have told me that you don't know how I do it.... I don't know how she and her husband do it. Keep checking back for that it may be a while still before I get a chance to sit down with them.
I'll be back tonight to write again.. Thanks again for reading!
Until tonight....
