why it's been so long...

hehe, you think I'm actually going to explain my absence? I've got no excuses except for my old standby. Once again, my body reminds me that I was *not* made for multitasking. If I'm gestating, that's about all I can do. After a short visit to the ER (silly protocols about 20-weekers), life has been much more predictable. I have to take it easy, but my body *is* doing its correct job.

I'm loving the new job and its flexibility.

I'm looking forward to having my sister and her friend move in and help me.

I've picked up some old knitting.

We spent almost six days traveling with family for the first time in years.

We're still healthy (this is actually the most incredible, especially after reading this post here.

And if you don't ever check my sidebar, I really encourage you to click on top pick of my shared files (it's labeled funny things from my friends). It's a post from someone on one of my g-tube groups that explained some things for me. It's a nice story about parents of children with special needs and how we relate to "other" parents.

Anyway...those are my bullet points. Maybe I'll fill it in, or maybe I'll post sooner enxt time. I even have some pics from Christmas that I might make HeaterBoy put up.

ps. We're having another girl...

Hi, you don't know me but your friend STM recommended your blog. My daughter is special needs and we are still going through the diagnosis process. We still don't know what is going on. We have an EEG coming up to see if she could be having absent seizures. Anyway, we are currently in So Cal and we have been going to CHOC hospital for the past year. As you know it takes a long time to build a good team of specialists and we are finally getting somewhere. However, for various reasons, we are moving to UT in the next 6 months. I am terrified of starting over. We had a terrible pediatrician in the beginning of this whole drama who told me nothing was wrong (even though I had a gut feeling that something was going on) and my daughter went undiagnosed for 5 months. This Dr. came highly recommended blah blah blah. I just don't want history to repeat itself in a new area. Also, we receive services from the county with a PT. I have no idea how to go about doing all this in UT. If you live in UT and you are willing to help me out that would be great. I understand if you would rather keep things private, especially since you don't know me. Even if you just sent me a link of a place where we could get services. I am sorry this is so long winded. We have been praying for help with this move, maybe you could point us in the right direction. You can comment me back here, or on my blog and I can send you my e-mail or something. OK, I'll stop now.
