Hello world

Some Days Rule.

Why this name for the blog?

Because the other 50 ideas I had were taken. "Sorry, this blog address is unavailable"

Thanks for that, Google.

HOWEVER, this name is better than every other one I tried. So I suppose I should be grateful. It is true- Some days rule. In fact, most days rule. Very few days suck. No, I didn't try the blog address "Very Few Days Suck", but... maybe next time.

My purpose for this blog is to get my thoughts out in a more archived manner than Facebook.  And what more stable platform then Google, who will own the world in a short time?

So I am married to a wonderful woman, I have 1 wonderful daughter, and one son. (see what I did there?) It's not true- he's wonderful too, in his own way.  Which is far more challenging to the rest of the planet than most people.

The Boy child (9 YO) is non-diagnosed. He has been through tests which determined that he is NOT autistic or ADHD. He has his own special version of "special" .  He is intelligent, he is kind, he is gentle.  He gets his mind stuck in this rut, and he is unABLE to get out of it.

Last night, he had to write a "reflection" paper because he was shouting in class rather than raising his hand. Also because he was getting in people's personal space.  So after sitting for 90 minutes and writing one sentence, I decided he could type his reflection paper.  He does better on his assignments typing rather than writing down on paper. One more sentence emerged.

We got up an hour early this morning to work on it, 6 AM rather than 7. The computer performed an update and re-started.  In the middle of the update, Boy child did a force reset. Why? Who knows. He felt like it was taking too long. So screw it, he does what he wants to do. Of course, the computer was effed.

While I attempted to fix it, it was lunch making time.  We are trying to eat healthier, less carbs, etc- and it's a lot of work for me.  Last night we had stir fry for dinner an the kids LOVED it.  This morning, they didn't want it at all. Even though I actually prepped and cooked the "leftovers" separately last night after they went to bed. So there was argung around that.

The boy declared "I'm Done!" and read me the 3 paragraphs he wrote. 2 sentences each. Which is supposed to be equal to a full page of cursive? Yes, he had the font set to 28 point. This is how he works- does as little as possible.

So we wrote more, and he's off to school. Try it again.
