Summer Trip 2015 Day 1 | Nelson Turf
https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2015/07/05/summer-trip-2015-day-1
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. Summer Trip 2015 Day 1. July 5, 2015. We started the day by trying to frantically clean all the things that I hadn’t gotten to the day before. I’m generally pretty OCD about planning and packing for trips, but for some reason, I was off my game. I like the idea of thinking that I’m getting more easy-going in my old age (I’m 40 now)…so yeah, let’s go with that. We had homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Yeah…I’m kind of a big deal. I’m not sure h...

https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2015/01/08/just-got-to-thinking-today
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. Just got to thinking today…. January 8, 2015. So, I talk a LOT about my kids’ issues…and they are plentiful. Actually…on that note…Judy is now OFFICIALLY diagnosed with Autism. Woot. But, back to my original thought train…Adam. Adam is what is known in the Autism world as…Neuro Typical…or NT…or “normal.”. Let me tell you about Adam. Yeah…teasing. At 9 months old. Get away with things, that. Wouldn’t be able to. Adam has a tender heart, and gets...Because...

Y’had a bad day… | Nelson Turf
https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/yhad-a-bad-day
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. Y’had a bad day…. April 29, 2015. So…we had a bad day. Not me specifically…just…y’know…collectively. First off…we’ve been sick. Gideon went down first, then me (as I am consistently his cuddle-buddy of choice), then Matt (as he is consistently MY cuddly-buddy of choice), then the other kids dropped like flies. Well…today…#1 got hit in the head with a tennis ball…which broke his glasses, which then in turn…cut him near his eye. 8230;ready to move on?

Merry Christmas 2014 | Nelson Turf
https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2014/12/29/merry-christmas-2014
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. December 29, 2014. There are no pictures. The kids got up at 3:45 am. Well…that’s when we HEARD them. By the time we had acknowledged their wakefulness…2 of them had already scouted out everyone’s stockings, and present haul. 3:45 am people. I hadn’t even gone to sleep yet. I was SO angry. No sleep makes Mommy…basically insane. And cranky. I was back in bed by 6:30…after breakfast, and the present-opening, was over. Gideon got a cute doll. Judy got a...

Vaccines. Autism. Blahbitty blah. | Nelson Turf
https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2015/02/04/vaccines-autism-blahbitty-blah
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. Vaccines. Autism. Blahbitty blah. February 4, 2015. The vaccine debate rears it’s horribly deformed and obnoxious head once again. And once again I find myself in a near-constant state of wanting to punch people in the throat. So…last week #4 was officially diagnosed. That’s right…THREE kids on the Autism Spectrum for me! He’s kind like of a cuddly baby penguin, crossed with a cartoon character, wrapped in rainbows…but, in real life! Here’s the deal.

Thanks for the Reminder | Nelson Turf
https://nelsonturf.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/thanks-for-the-reminder
Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. Thanks for the Reminder. December 23, 2014. Facebook wanted to show me a summary of my year. So…I glanced through it. It started out with Gideon’s trip to the hospital. Then, Judy’s struggles with trichotillomania (hair pulling), and school issues. Then, it brought up Moroni’s bullying struggles. I didn’t even post about our insane summer…b’cause, I still have PTSD about it. It ended with MORE bullying struggles for Moroni. Newer post →. December 27, 2014.

Our own little dominion…masters of all we survey…. December 18, 2014. My Favorite Cut-out Cookie Recipe! 1 Cup White Sugar. 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour. Teaspoon Cream of Tartar. 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder. Put the butter in your bowl, and let it sit around until it’s at room temperature. Yeah, it’s importantyou don’t want to use melted butter for this. Takes a little planning, but I usually just stick it in the bowl in the morning, and by the time I’m ready to mix the doughit’s ready. You don’t NEED to refri...
