Boo’s last day. And the office Christmas party.

The hand you held.
Years ago, when I haunted Autism message boards soon after Boo’s diagnosis, I came across a poem. A poem that never fails to make me cry fat hot tears. Ever since then whenever someone special i…

As I type this, at 9.10pm Sunday night, it is less than 10 hours until Moo logs on to her computer and finds out the result of 13 years of schooling. In less than 10 hours from now, we will be standin…

Christmas shopping like it’s 1999. Well technically NOT, cause I had no clue about the internet in 1999 I just knew it involved a lot of fucking cords in the middle of my loungeroom and a high pitched squeal that meant I couldn’t use the damn phone.
Considering I am essential hobbled, my plans of perfect gifts from local businesses have been dashed. So now I will step into the future and make this an online shopping Christmas! Woo Hoo! Boo is pre…

This time of the year brings out my crazy. Like burning in your retinas, make you feel dizzy and a little nauseous, back slowly out of the room, crazy.
Normally I like clean lines. Clear surfaces. Everything in its place. My family, on the other hand, believe that if a surface is bare something must fill it. It is a never ending cycle of me sighin…

And his teacher was all,Boo has something to tell you. And I could tell by the look on her face it wasn’t bad. Like he had smeared poo everywhere or peed on the principal or something. This time anyway.
