Posted on July 4, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Diagnosed vs Undiagnosed

Posted on June 19, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

I chanced upon an old friend a couple of weeks ago. I mean we know each other from a ways back, not that either he (or I) are old. He, (too bad for him come to think about it), asked how my … Continue reading →

High in Fibre

Posted on June 18, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Another good one from my Griffin-man. Two good stories in less than 24 hours–this kid is a gold-mine! I must back up a little to give some context. Yesterday, we worked on some colouring pages. He was so pleased with … Continue reading →

Easy Riders

Posted on June 18, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Be Realistic

Posted on June 3, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

So, that’s the phrase I’m starting to hear. We have to keep our expectations realistic. Aspergers, ADHD, and Learning Disabilities are life-long conditions for which there is no cure. They can be managed but not eliminated. Accept her for who she is. If … Continue reading →

Posted on June 2, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

I have a confession to make. I do not, (cannot?, will not? am unable to?) close cupboard doors. Drawers too. It drives my husband crazy. Whenever it’s brought to my attention, I try to reform myself. I set myself a SMART goal … Continue reading →
