I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT WHEN I REALIZED ITS BEEN OVER A WEEK SINCE I MADE AN ENTRY!! SOME MANY THINGS TO WRITE THE TRICK IS TO EDIT IT TO MAKE IT INTERESTING AND USEFUL FOR THOSE WHO READ IT!!!

SO GUESS I CAN WORK BACKWARDS-- HAVE JOINED 2 GROUPS ON YAHOO FOR AUTISM AND THEY ARE GREAT.I WILL BE ADDING THEM TO MY FAVORITE WEB PAGES. ONE HAS A VERY ACTIVE GROUP WITH A PLETHERA OF TOPICS AND HAS 10 TO 20 ENTRIES EVERY DAY. THE OTHER IS ONE THAT A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE  HAS STARTED AND SHE IS THE CORNERSTONE OF THIS GROUP AS SHE WORKS IN THE INLAND REGIONAL CENTER  RESOURCE LIBRARY SO SHE HAS A LOT OF POSTINGS ON ACTIVITIES AND INFORMATION ABOUT OUR KIDS!!!

THERE HAS BEEN A RECENT DISCUSSION ABOUT PARENTAL VOUCHERED RESPITE - ONE OF MY FAVORITE TOPICS- HAHA  AND A PARENT WHO IS HAVING TROUBLE GETTING EVEN 6 HOURS OF RESPITE AND THAT ORANGE COUNTY REGIONAL CENTER MAY BE AUTHORIZING PARENTAL VOUCHERED RESPITE  IMAGINE THAT !

I HAVE BEEN FURIOUSLY WORKING ON A PICNIC POTLUCK WE ARE TRYING TO ORGANIZE TO START THIS CENTER I HAVE PREVIOUSLY  MENTIONED ON THIS JOURNAL. I WILL MAKE A SEPARATE EXERPT WITH AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO TRY TO GET MORE PEOPLE NOTIFIED.

AS FOR THE 4TH OF JULY WE WENT TO THE CELEBRATION AND PARADE IN ONTARIO CALIFORNIA. WE HAVE FRIENDS THAT HAVE A BUSINESS ON THE PARADE ROUTE AND THEY OPEN IT TO EVERYONE THEY KNOW SO WE HAVE A PRIME SPOT!DAKOTA LOVES THE MARCHING BANDS  AND SINCE HE IS "STILL WITH CAST" WE HAD TO WHEEL HIM TO THE CURB IN THE WHEELCHAR!!DIDNT MATTER HE LOVED IT! 

SO GUESS THAT PRETTY MUCH CATCHES ME UP BUT THINK I NEED TO BE A LITTLE MORE CONSCIENCE UPDATING THIS JOURNAL.
