Summer...ahhh

Well, it is almost here....summer....the weather is great and how amazing I feel after a few days at the pool. The kids have their last school day tomorrow. I have to say that I used to feel very anxious about the end of the school year. I remember feeling so lost after Alex was diagnosed not knowing what to do with him once school let out. He was too young for "camps" and it just seemed we were getting into a routine with school and it was out for the summer. Not to mention the fear of regression.

My husband and I have always worked hard to get him programing throughout the summer including camps and therapies. This was not easy nor cheap but we did it. I feel now that we are on a summer auto pilot. We have out local childcare place - yeah TCEP - where the kids can go for a few days a week....we have our local pool....we have local teenagers that can help out when I need them....oh, and who can forget Mrs. Walker who wants to work with Alex throughout the summer and refuses to let me pay her. WOW!

So, that leads me to talk about my employment status, which is still unemployed :( I feel like I have the support structure there now to help me go back to work but it hasn't happened yet. I have wonderful people in the community working to find me job leads. I have a promising lead that I hope works out soon. Either way, I'm just going to enjoy my time with the kids this summer and hope it all works out in the end.

So tomorrow is the last day of school and I'm not anxious at all...We have come a long way!
