First, things have been a little nuts in my house lately.

The " haircut " is one. Well not just the haircut but brushing too. I

have said that if my son does not brush his hair he needs to have a

short cut - crew cut, etc.. But the cutting is difficult too. He's

says it hurts. Maybe he really sees it as an extension of himself or

control thing. His hair is curly so its hard to brush, we have

really good conidtioner. Its not quite curly enough to be left or

picked. So thats one.

I am really struggling with the GDCF diet thing - pulling the food

groups and buying supplements. $$$$$$$$$$$ We will both be doing it

when it happens but I just can't afford it. I can't work outside the

home right now so finances are up and down. I do what I can from home

right now. The home business stuff just doesn't work. I am

telemarketing but it is really slow. I do sel on ebay but I am just

starting out. I have decided to start doing charity auctions too, but

those are SLOW. There are two there right now Iw old appreciate if

people could pass those along. 80% goes to Autism or Down's Syndrome

Charities. I am autismmom614 on Ebay. Please email me if you are

willing to pass on direct links, i don't want to post them here. Its

sad to only see 30 views and a bunch of watchers.

I am having a hard time getting organized for sure and trying to give

up smoking, but stress does not help. I think it will make a huge

difference financially and physically of course but also spiritually

and it will really make my son feel good.

I still feel a bit isolated so I am working on that. Now that its a

bit warmer it will help because we have to take the bus everywhere.

lots of personal stuff but I am really working on that in counseling.

We shall see how that continues to develop. The site my son and I

created is starting to take off a bit which I am grateful for, Iam

still asking for stories from other parents, it helps. I know that if

it helps me feel less isolated then it could be doing that for others

too.

Please feel free to email me here or on . I do like to chat.
