Getting Started

Well this is going to be my first blog. I'm not sure what to say, this is all new to me. I tend to be able to write better than I speak so I'm hoping this is going to turn out how I imagined. At this very moment I have been unemployed for 2 weeks and 3 days. I'm looking every day and applying to one or more jobs almost daily. I hope to find something soon.

A couple nice things about being unemployed is you can get things done....if you don't end up to lazy which is easy to fall in to. One thing I love in particular is I get to spend lots of time with Brayden. I've got to go to a couple of his therapies and see whats going on. I also got to go to one of his very important dr. visits.

I haven't really elaborated on my grandson Brayden, well obviously since this is my first post! Brayden is on the Autism Spectrum. He was diagnosed January of 2008. He has since been going to speech and occupational therapy twice a week each. He is what they call "high functioning". He is 2 yrs, 9 months old and will say a couple of words but only as imitation to the kids on tv. He is a pretty active kid, loves to be outdoors and loves to play with any bouncy ball.

He will also bug you to death to swing him! One of the games he love is for me to stand in front of him and swing him and then when he points to his riding toy (which by the way he NEVER rides) he wants me to go over and put my hands on the handle bars and make it go and then run back to swing him. He laughs every time I do it like it is the funniest thing in the world. So yep....of course I do it! Haha.

Ok, well this will have to do for my first post until I can figure out what I'm doing on here. If you are reading, thanks a lot!
