We made it! Woo!

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

Getting ready to take husband to physical therapy today. Then we'll all go to the grocery store to buy stuff for dinner since my root canal got canceled again and I hadn't planned on doing anything for valentines because I was suppose to have the root canal today. Although today is siblings day to cook, so maybe we have valentines dinner tomorrow instead. We'll still buy groceries. The kitten would like it to be known it's almost 10am and humans are suppose to be awake and paying attention to her. So I better go do that.
