Would you like some whine?

Went to the Wendling's first tee ball game last night. (Yeah, it got rained out 2/3 of the way through.) Sure enough, he was the only kid who had to be reminded to drop the bat before running to first, and when he did remember, he ran back to home to do it. *places hand over eyes and sighs* He's been pretty stimmy the last few days and it's eroded my patience and sense of humor. Her Nibs wants to make up bumper stickers that look like the VW "fahrvergnugen" ones except they'd say "jumpenflappen".

Speaking of the Nibbal unit, things were looking better for a couple of weeks -- only two crappy days out of seven -- but now the side effects are so chronic and gross that she's talking about switching meds again. Oy.

I still haven't caught up on sleep from NWC. I've been staying up later than I should have doing sysadmin and home finance chores. Can we do the con over, and can I stay there permanently?

The Wendling is not even close to the first t-ball kid I've seen who had trouble figuring out that you drop the bat. :)

stimming and so on

A lot of good sensory soothers and fidgets and stuff can be found at Abilitations. (https://www.abilitations.com/index.jsp) Request print catalogs for both Abilitations and Interactions so you can see all the goodies. Heck, I want the full set of squishy balls for myself!!

One my son has used to good advantage is a tupperware bowl full of assorted dry beans, with enough headroom that he can just run his fingers through them to his heart's content. And you can just put the lid on it and take it places...

If you ever make the sticker, let me know though, I know a bunch of people who would probably love one :-)

Dang, I meant the "Integrations" catalog they offer separately, not Interactions, that's just a dept within Abilitations.
