<--- Let's groove tonight

<--- is back from lunch
<--- did errands
<--- thinks Ame is a whirlwind today
<--- could also not have a maid service due to OCD issues
<--- says it would be a complete and utter waste of money
<--- is sorry Michele isn't going to have doggie company
<--- doesn't know Melody's 11 y/o DS but is sure she would love him if she did:)
<--- thinks it must have been the Three Musketeers that gave Kristy the energy to blast through LIS;)
 
<---is doing tuck jumps, cartwheels, plyo jacks and happy dance:7 :7 :7
<---says it's a mom thing cause DS with cerebral palsy is using scissors to cut out all sizes of circles and they are neatly done!!!
<---informs everyone fine motor skills a big issue, but he can now write recognizable letters and use scissors, does tiny Lego blocks, throws balls really good, etc.
<---is now shutting up, but still happy dancing
<---calms down to decide what to eat for lunch
<---stresses out cause mom's coming
<---says this could result in bad lunch choices
 
<---says here's OCD <---has a cousin who every time anyone touches her baby, she washes the baby down w/alcohol, even when the baby's grandmother (my aunt) touches the baby!!! That's only one issue - at least cousin is in therapy.
 
<---would totally slip DD and DS $20 or more to clean the house if they actually did a good job
<---does a better job cleaning than DD and DS


Kristy

I solemnly swear that I am up to no good
 
<---swears the $20 was for cleaning
<---charges much, much more for other stuff
<---may be easy, but is not cheap
<---sends an ATTA BOY to Melody's DS
<---remembers how excited <---got when DS was about 2 and managed to bang 2 blocks together
<---puts hands over eyes and says WO-EE-WO-EE-WO-EE at Shelley's unauthorized mention of a candy bar
 
<---thanks Robin for the boy cheer
<---tells her this DS (adopted) was so severely abused as infant and he's just a miracle cause he was never suppose to walk, talk or have any measurable intelligence
<---says he's actually extremely intelligent, doesn't stop talking and what a vocabulary, and just try to make him sit
<---is shutting up again and going to hug DS some more:)
<---adds never, ever assumed Robin was cheap:p
 
<---remembers a girl who was in child stimulation class with DS when he was infant. She was supposedly born w/o a brain, nothing but a stem, would never walk, talk, etc. She came to a yard sale our church was having a couple years ago, very, very functional. Never believe what the experts say.
 
<---tells Melody to give her DS a hug from <---
<---thinks adoption ROCKS!
<---has an adopted sister and neice (neice has SEVERE autism and was severely abused as an infant as well)
<---'s DS was adopted by DH
<---'s mom was in foster care until she got married when she was 18
<---repeats that adoption ROCKS!

Kristy

I solemnly swear that I am up to no good
 
<--- loves hearing stories like the one about Melody's DS
<--- makes her feel all warm and fuzzy
<--- 's SO was adopted
 
<---of course he's not fuzzy, Shelley gave him a haircut
<---is sure Kara can think of something to say that doesn't include food!!!

Kristy

I solemnly swear that I am up to no good
 
<--- is eating entirely too much today
