Basically just getting this off my chest

Charlie hasn't had too many 'bad episodes' recently, but last night lack of sleep combined with (probably) too much food with dye in it, caused a meltdown of momentous proportions.

( Under a cut because it is long )

But it is a new, sunshiny day, and all is right with the world. For now.

I'd like to hear from mothers with Autistic children/people on the spectrum (You know who you are)to see what your stories are when it comes to this sort of thing. Strength in numbers and all that.

On the plus side, I got carded at the liquor store last night! They have a sign that says 'anyone under 30 will be asked for ID' or something similar, why I don't know, and in all the times I have gone into that store I have never, ever been carded. but they carded me. I was totally surprised. It was awesome.




*We never sang dark songs like that when I was in Brownies. It was all 'make new friends and Michael row the boat in them days.
