I bring to you, the exciting new world of Mark Ewbie products. He's got a Zazzle shop and has, to date, made 2 sales I believe. Netting him the grand total of about $1, but it's a start.

Well done Lydia...I achieved exactly nothing in the house today apart from running the hoover around the front room.
Youngest however, achieved a huge thing, after many many months of will he, won't he, he said he wanted to have his hair cut. For many this is not a huge thing, for him it is absolutely massive, evident in the fact his hair had reached to just above his bottom in length. I wasted no time in taking him to the hairdresser (not our regular place, a new one for us, another big thing for him) and he has had it cut short, shorter than when he was younger.
He is a little eek tonight but coping well and I must say, by goodness I have handsome offspring :rotfl:
He also came up with what I thought was a good analogy of his autism....he says he has a gate and sometimes the gate is open, sometimes it is shut and sometimes the gate shuts and locks very tightly and he can't get the real him out.
Agree with the others - vacuuming is not nothing.
Congrats to youngest on the hair cut. Just how short is it now?Lydia - looking forward to an update on the phonecall to the therapist
There are 4 calls for me to make to the 4 possibles. I have to arrange for her to meet them all so she can decide which she would prefer.lostinrates wrote: »Yes, well done Lydia, and well done sunshine girl, that's a big step. Move....quickly, get the ball rolling!
We are spending this morning with friends but I will make the calls this afternoon while she is out at a birthday party.Do you know anyone who's bereaved?

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -
Grade 6 on the sides and back and longer on the top and fringe.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -

I am very conservative when it comes to appearance and call that a huge improvement.
Day off for me as it is half term, don't worry I will not be putting any of you lot to shame with my level of achievement.
Car is semi drive able again. Spent 400 replacing bits of the exhaust then got garage to fix the actual problem which was an oil leak caused by the garage that fixed the turbo, since then 2 garages have insisted the problem was with the exhaust and it is only now the exhaust is changed and the problem not fixed that they have been able to find the oil leak. This leaves a 150 quid sensor still to be replaced which stopped working when they changed the exhaust but of course there is no way to prove they broke it...I think....0 -
Much better! Nice shirt too
...is it '"Can I play with madness?"
I like the new cut too. But then I always do prefer short hair on men/boys.
I think the shirt is Iron Maiden.Do you know anyone who's bereaved?
