Runnin' Down a Dream: 10.13

Runnin' Down a Dream. The day we moved. Again. Todaytoday begins our traveling life without dad. I would like to write about how we feel about that, but I am on my phone in a hotel, so I will be brief . We are so weird. These are my many gluten free grains that are strapped behind the truck. Friggin Hurricane Blowhard of NNY 2013 made sure everything I loaded today was soaked and me too. There may have been some sky cursing. Links to this post. Try as I might, for 2 days I came upon recipe after recipe t...

Runnin' Down a Dream. Wow, it feels GOOD to have a big thing behind us! Corbin's surgery went well and he is such a trooper. The nurses all laughed and joked about how smart, articulate and independent he is for such a young person. He told the recovery nurse, "I don't want you talking to me right now." Yepp, that's our boy! I had brought him a sippy of coconut water and juice for him to drink in recovery and the nurse asked him, "Is that apple juice? He looked at her crazy and said, "NO! Once we went ba...

Runnin' Down a Dream. Another $50 donation came in last night, so we're down to needing 544.04 more to be able to send in our homestudy packet on Monday! I wanted to have a little fun today, and the blog has been desperately devoid of pictures the last several days. Have you seen those posters with 6 cells going around on Facebook? The ones where it says, "What my mom thinks I do, what society thinks I do, what I really do"? I thought I'd make one of my own based on a verse that is helping me today.

Runnin' Down a Dream. So after 60 days of panic, I knew that my requirements were these:. Few physical books, since we will have to fit everything in the Suburban as we travel. A traditional math curricula that could be challenging enough for GraceAnne, but simple enough for Violet. Preferably from the same company so that I could get the hang of the teaching style. Integrated learning into daily life so that we don't feel consumed by the work. Maybe I should have started off this way. I have always ...

Runnin' Down a Dream. Stones in the Waves. You're the one there.". Me I'm the one here. NowGod is teaching me something different. What is it? I suspect it's partially to lean fully on Him in my weakness, while still appreciating my husband's role in my life. That I should take more responsibility for things I am capable of but let Allan do just because I didn't want to. You're not a military wife, you aren't cut out for this.". Then I remember: so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by ...

Runnin' Down a Dream. Life Takes you Off-Roading. I'm guessing because it happens too frequently that a person doesn't get to express their feelings before death comes knocking. I wanted to look through old pictures for some to post, but they are buried in our storage unit in Kansas. I can see her plain as day in my mind, though, particularly in the puffy winter coat that always smelled like Burger King. Would friends from high school come forward and write blog posts about me? Links to this post. But I ...

Runnin' Down a Dream. How long does it take to "lose one's mind? That's right. I'm autistic. And I have never heard a word used to describe me with more relief. I think anyone would find if they stuck their necks out or if they just allowed these things to happen to them, they would be "strong" too, because what is the alternative? The alternative is death. We bend and sway with life or she breaks us in two. And yet we have fragile minds. How long does it take to "go crazy? Is there a set length of time?

Runnin' Down a Dream. The dust has settled from our Disney trip (FABULOUS, and when can we go again! What does victory look like? Victory looks a lot different than I imagined. Restoration means first being completely destroyed. I know from living in a house being restored that restoration looks like a lot of hard work and a lot of days of rain when the work cannot be done, but always moving FORWARD and looking for other things to improve.

Runnin' Down a Dream. Wow, what have we been up to? November is a busy month for you, right? It has been a crazy month for us, too. As you know, we came back to Kansas to get some medical things taken care of, so we have literally been in various doctors offices nearly every day this month. The verdicts? Haha) I am very nervous about the scope and trying hard not to think about it. It will be good to have answers, though if the test comes back negative for celiac, I'm not sure what to do from here...
