This section is dedicated to my family and me. The bottom line: I am a fourty-something married mom of 2 and live in the Houston suburbs. I have 4 cats and one dog-all adopted (and hubby wants another dog!), I like figure skating(I have a site for that), music (right now I am listening to "Weird Al" Yankovic, Linkin Park, Nickelback, and Bowling for Soup), web design, surfing message boards online, poker, and whatever else I find interesting at any given time.
Any blogging, pics, etc can be found on my MySpace page
And now a little bit about the kids!
Thomas-TJ
TJ is the youngest(13 years old as of Feb of 2009). TJ's a creative kid who likes writing stories. He likes playing games on the computer, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, watching Disney movies, and Goosebumps
TJ has Tourette's Syndrome and some speech issues. Tourette's usually doesn't impair him too much except for impulsivity, which can at times present a challenge. Sometimes people think he is being mean(he's not) or strange, but with the tics, he can't always control what he says or does.
Antony
Antony is 16(as of Feb 2009) year old who loves school, sports of all sorts, playing with his computer, NASCAR, and Dale Earnhardt, Jr. Antony has a disability which has lately been more described as Asperger's Syndrome. Antony is basically a high functioning Austistic.
Among the characteristics of this disorder is lack of social skills typical for their age and various behavior problems. Antony also is hyperactive and until he began taking medication, he was hard to control and he did not learn very fast. Now that is he is older, the hyper part has calmed down a lot. The medication he is taking also helps. Antony is also visual and observant.
Social Networking Madness!
