My dog identified as a cat.
I am not a dog person, heck I'm not even an animal person, but I come from an animal family. Two technically. My dad has had three dogs over the course of my life, my mom has had two dogs and three cats. When I finally moved out to live on my own, I got a fish. Fish are so much easier. I had a fair fish growing up that I kept alive for three years completely on my own! So now, my husband and I have a semi large fish tank and keep a few fish. That's as close to having an animal in our house as we will get for a long time. I'm comfortable with my fish. But when I was younger, we adopted an incredibly unique dog named Happy.

The Silent Death: Part One
It's been ten years since my husband died, yet it still feels like yesterday. Kids today have no idea how much has changed in the last ten years. I see it everyday in my daughter. She's so young and free. She has no idea what kind of freedoms we used to have. No clue what she's missed out on.

Learning to Live
I was afraid of so much. Afraid to make the wrong move, say the wrong word, or even look the wrong way. When they say it feels like you're walking on eggshells, that's exactly what it feels like. Every single action is under a microscope and there's no way out.

Autism isn't a disease
Autism isn't a disease. This is something I've been claiming for years, and will continue to express to anyone who thinks otherwise. Technically it's considered a "disorder" however I don't think that's accurate either. Autism is a different way of thinking, a different way of seeing the world.
