About Me

My photo
Massachusetts, United States
I am 41 years old. I have been married to my husband for 15 years. We have a son who was born in April 1996. We live in Central Massachusetts with our dog Maggie (a black lab we adopted from the animal rescue league) and our cat Sam (a stray that adopted us) I graduated from college with a BFA in Theatre in 1993 (hence the name) and for a few years pursued a career as an actress. Then life took over and I got married, had a baby and decided to get a "real" job. In November 2004, I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's disease. In December 2004, I was hospitalized for surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy. In December 2009, I was laid off from my job. In June 2010, my son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the age of 14. Stick around to see what happens next!

I love my son!

I am getting his bag ready for school and I open his lunch bag (which he takes his snack in everyday) and inside is a post it note that says, "Yum, Yum. Dear Mom, Thanks for packing the oreos! They were good. I really liked them! Love, Brian".

It just made my heart melt.


The science project on the rectum and anus is complete. He walked out the door with it this morning. I am feeling slightly guilty at the amount of help I gave him but he would have never completed it if I hadn't. Of course, I am passing down my bad habits of procrastination to him. Just because I work best under pressure doesn't mean he will. Must try and let him do more on his own with the next project. Apparently 5th grade is chock full of them! It's going to be a long school year...

Having lunch with my friend who had MS today. Her husband is divorcing her. Coward! He is suing for full physical custody of their son. I feel so awful for her.

TGIF!!

Toodles.
