I was sleepy last night when I went to bed, but I did not sleep well. Not sure I slept before3:30 a. m..
I have done needed stuff but not interesting stuff today. Think I will go to bed soon.
In my earlier post I did mention needing continuing education credits. The videos are not long, the quizzes are not hard, so I got a good start there. I should finish them tomorrow. I am taking video courses that related to autism.
I think I will check the local weather before I go to bed. I keep hearing that we have cold weather coming soon.
Happy New Year to you all. I know I have seen some of you around other places. I hope you are doing well.

One thing that they keep emphasizing in these lessons is that if a child is autistic he or she is still unique and different from every other autistic child. We have two very different autistic children on our case load and others in the building. It is interesting to be doing this training at home. I have to do so many hours to keep my job and also to possibly get a raise next year.

My energy seems to have improved with a good night's sleep. I think all the holiday stuff can get very tiring.

I hope that you have a supportive family that will help you so you can get the work you need to do done. Autism is such an interesting subject. Hope the weather isn't too cold. Ours is getting down to single digits at night and in the teens during the day. That is to come. Hasn't yet though. Ugh!

Luckily the people who are narrating them are not the droning type. I can listen and relax more or less. It will be good to sign all the documentation and turn it in this week. Would you consider a full time para job?

I did sleep much better. One thing that I am supposed to do but do not do always is eat a good protein snack before bed.

They are going well. I can mix up the studying with home activities and be very relaxed by them.

I rested much better last night. I hope you can avoid being so sick with your breathing issues. I have been fortunate so far.

Nothing like being able to go training in pajamas or barefooted. It has to be done, so I had just as well do it now. There may be some inservices offered or workshops, but I cannot count on that. I will feel more secure doing this.

We had a late winter last year and I fear it will be the same this year. We have only had one brief cold spell. The weather men predict another one starting tomorrow.
