Tomorrow is another day. Hope things get better.<BR/><BR/>Oh, a previous commentator mentioned Down syndrome/autism. Some of that behavioral stuff points that way, then again it could just be behavioral. Or the medical stuff could be masking the autism. I know several kids with Down syndrome who were diagnosed much later with autism because the families were too busy worrying about medical stuff to even think about autism.<BR/><BR/>My 4 year old daughter has Down syndrome and autism, so if you have any questions about that, just drop me a line.datrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11780816487520416497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520636576141846708.post-15430746404228066192008-11-14T08:50:00.000-08:002008-11-14T08:50:00.000-08:00I've had horrible days as well, and all I can say ...I've had horrible days as well, and all I can say is BETTER DAYS WILL COME!!!

Also blanket sleepers worn backwards-you have to remove the feet. Just keep telling yourself that you really are smarter and more devious than a three year old.

Your right, tomorrow will be better. I completely understand the whole house. I'm realing cleaning my kitchen today and mopping and look over in the livingroom and Carson is busy destroying it. I spend more time two steps behind him cleaning up. <BR/><BR/> Hey I had the city come out not so long ago because my 1999 Grand Am has expired tags sitting in my driveway. He told me a neighbor called it in and complained.(Are you kidding? Who has that kind of time on their hands to drive around the hood and look at everyones plates?) I didn't have the money to get the personal property taxes paid so I was waiting. So I drove my SUV and left it sitting and not violating the law. They told me I had 7 days to get my car (that is in good condition and still has full coverage) and if not, the city would come onto my property and tow it off. I have never heard of such a law. So needless to say, I drove it with expired tags to my mom's and that is where it stays. LOL (same city by the way)<BR/><BR/>Just get some x-mas lights like in the National Lampoon and light up your neighbors house. That will get them in the spirit for sure.<BR/><BR/>Call me tonight at home or tomorrow if you need to vent. Call the house because Coltan took my cell charger with him to his dad's house.My Three Sonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538389626222825358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520636576141846708.post-35944811483750906892008-11-13T20:58:00.000-08:002008-11-13T20:58:00.000-08:00Foul mood days suck sometimes, don't they?

Also, when it comes to the doggies and having to go to court, if you can have one of Rhett's therapists or Dr or some professional write a note to the judge that the dogs are his therapy that should help you out. Pictures of indoor beds, etc. are helpful too. Take care, hon!Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04554314908015066118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520636576141846708.post-42106090631391388842008-11-13T20:14:00.000-08:002008-11-13T20:14:00.000-08:00I'm totally with ya with the blah day.

Maybe you could get a note from Rhett's dr saying that the dogs are therapy tools for him and maybe that would keep them from trying to take your dogs away. That's what I would do. As far as Rhett goes, have you tried duct taping his diaper on? I have thought about doing that myself.lol He is such a cutie. Give him hugs for us out here in VA.<BR/>I hope tomorrow is a better day for ya.momtojessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270622632168129971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520636576141846708.post-72298414748113120232008-11-13T19:03:00.000-08:002008-11-13T19:03:00.000-08:00would you mind sending me an e-mail?

I wouldn't let anyone rule that out yet particularly since you have another child diagnosed with it.

I don't know what my deal is maybe it's because tomorrow I am turning thirty and I had plans to celebrate and embrace being thirty but instead I am counting the days until the 18 when my son goes in to have another surgery.I am starting to freak out! I keep thinking about everything that can possible go wrong. I am terrified of that day but at the same time I am anxious to get it over with.<BR/><BR/>Sorry for rambling on<BR/><BR/>The good thing is when your in a mood that we seem to be in at this pres ant time is tomorrow is a new day. <BR/><BR/>Keep your chin up charlie brown!<BR/><BR/>AmberAmberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17078286116592642764noreply@blogger.com
