I have found that though there have been lots of happenings going on I seem to have lost the urge/desire to write about them. Admittedly I am very interested (alright, borderline obsessed) in the workings of our website and in trying to get things set up just the way I envision them. It is unfortunate that a site that only partly works is next to useless and therefore there needs to be a fair amount of development work, especially for a novice like myself that just tries to muddle through by trial and error, before the site can be rolled out. I’m now hoping that all that is left is just some minor tweaking on this site and then I can start doing what it is supposed to be about- the content (hopefully I can stop obsessing about the techie stuff).

I want to start updating some aspects of our site and continue a couple of series that are the most popular on our site:

• K’s toe walking and that series of posts are far and away the most viewed on our site and I will be updating that series shortly.  It has also been the impetus for one of my next projects that I am just trying to get finished up and will be dedicated solely to this subject.  So stay tuned for more information on both the personal and the techie level.
• K’s seizure activity and our continuous efforts to keep them controlled and how we are managing so far. These posts are also quite popular and is also something I want to update for others that may be having the same experience or undertaking the same journey.
• Our work with a local advocacy group has motivated me start another project that will be a community based site with a lot of local information and content as well as a forum for the exchanging of ideas, information, as well as goods and services.  I am close to finishing it and just need to finish up some of the features, load some initial content, and hopefully local families and individuals will find it useful.
• A new series I want to start documenting is K’s journey from pre-school to kindergarten and what we as parents have been doing in the background to make that transition as smooth as possible and to ensure we are getting all K’s supports in place for the big move to the public school system.

So, look for more content and less techie tweaking to come ( I hope- as long as the site keeps working Ok).  Hopefully I can get the writing bug again as there is lots to talk about personally as well as in the Autism community at large. Check back soon for more…
