We woke up, had breakfast, Roomba cleaned our floors, and E got the ok to drive again!
We had our bigtime brain camp meeting today. E had two specific goals and was able to accomplish both within the last two months. 1. Drive 2. Work.
He will now be going to brain camp two days a week and will be working three. The great part about having both is, as issues come up at work (and they assured us they will) E can work it out at brain camp instead of having to deal with it on his own. Thank you brain camp!
Have I mentioned the nicknames E and his snarky friends have given me?
Mandatory, deMandying, ComMandying, Mandypants. You get the idea.
Needless to say, taking control of a situation comes naturally. However, I couldn't me more excited to give up the title of "family chauffeur." My life in the past six months has been like being a single mom of a special needs child with a dead beat dad.
Tomorrow, we celebrate E's last "full time" day at brain camp with Sam the Cooking Guy (a local celeb chef.) I've invited myself to the festivities and couldn't be more excited.
In the words of his (multiple) good friends, Oh boy......
He may have a brain injury but he's definitely not stupid.
Little tiger after school.
Celebratory meal. Yes, on a paper plate. Our dishwasher is broken.
Sweet potato mashed potatoes. Little. Orange. Different.
Hmm. Not sure who this is...
Oh, it's Henri. The begging dog.
