I haven't been posting on this site for a while, because I've been developing 8 Busy Bees-the newer more inclusive version of this site. I did a lot of brainstorming and soul searching. In discussing my goals for blogging with others, I realized a lot of things I advocate for on this blog apply to [...]
Here is my most recent post. Im still learning how to forward to another blog, so click HERE for the new URL and full post.https://8busybees.com/2018/04/30/we-came-we-saw-we-conquered-we-did-it-scared/ I'm one in a hundred (or rather three hundred twenty). Are you too?I have a little fear of heights (Acrophobia)--mixed with a good sized bit of Basophobia (fear of falling). [...]
I've been taking a blogging course and I'm learning so much. I've also realized in this process that I want to be of help to families of all kinds of special needs. To that end, I've been working on rebranding my blog. I'm still going to primarily talk about Autism, anxiety and ADHD. In fact, [...]
For me, Spring always brings a sense of renewal and hope as we begin to sees trees and flowers awakening after a long, cold winter. This time of year our family celebrates Easter. We try to do any fun stuff (egg hunts, candy) on Saturday and leave Sunday to focus on the meaning of the [...]
Throw Back Thursday is a bit different this week. I thought this had been scheduled to post in the fall....and it didn't. So here it is today. Enjoy. *********** November 16, 2017 We haven't moved yet. It was nearly Halloween before the relocation company got us a realtor. Add to that the paint job that [...]
One of the things we like to do is take time with each child to do something special. This last weekend DH (DearHusband) and I had to go to a formal work event. For Friday Family Time (yes, we kind of consider it a proper noun), we sat down as a whole family to watch [...]

The one I ordered finally came yesterday after a shipping snafu. I had a small paper January calendar where I could keep track of big things like appointments, but the daily [...]
So we're more than a week into January, and yep, Christmas decorations are not yet put away. It's been that busy and crazy. The sad thing is I didn't even put up most of the decorations this year, because we visited family out-of-state. Add to that the pictures we haven't put back up, and you've [...]
I give up. I give up on perfection. Real life is hard. Real life leaves you with five minutes here and there to tackle things you want to do. Real life leaves little room for perfection. I give up on long blog posts and schedules for the moment. We're here, we're still kicking and moving [...]
Just when you think you're gaining traction, you find out it's 95% likely that you'll move. To another state. Into a smaller home. And school is starting soon. I still have plenty of posts planned for the future. And if I can manage it, I'll continue my putting up Throwback Thursday posts for new content [...]
