Hipstamatic Love
A few weeks ago we took the kids to their very first Drive-In. They had the old signs, speakers, and screens complete with the original footage that you used to see before the movies started playing. It was definitely a step back in time. Of course, I had to use my Hipstamatic app to take some o...

mosaic by big huge labs observations: i took more still-life photos today - love the variety of images that i'm capturing; i forget that putting on make-up makes me feel "put together" - I need to do this more often; not very hungry for lunch - learning to listen to my body and not overeat. g...

Let's Take a Different Look
Are you like me and have hundreds of photos so far this summer? We were lucky enough this summer to go on 3 trips and spend lots of time together. For me that equals an overwhelming amount of photos and kind of makes me want to crawl under a blanket until winter. Sure, I'll get all these ...

If CHA Were My Boyfriend...
In January 2009, I went to my very first Craft and Hobby Association show (CHA), and I chronicled the journey on my blog. Read the wrap-up post here. I have continued to chronicle each CHA experience since then. In many ways I use the twice-a-year event as a benchmark for my own progress, in ...

I'm happy to read that the high school is willing to merge the two programs. Sounds like she's doing good in some subjects (like history).
I do not have a formal diagnosis of Asperger's (some professionals have said yes, others have said no), but I fit on the spectrum. Not severely at all, but I think I can relate to how she feels.
I hope her future is as bright as it can be. And I hope you receive a diagnosis if it is required. Here, in Norway, where I teach, you pretty much have to have a diagnosis to receive any sort of help.

I love how you've managed to categorize your stamps. So far, I've only put them in photo pockets and into a binder... Will see if I can find a better way later, but... After not finding photo pockets here in Norway, I had to resort to crop in style's clear pages.
