Iām waiting for spring here too, wanting to get to work on my balcony, waiting to go out and do some spring rides and hikes. But I guess thereās enough stuff to do inside too. The inside of my place and the inside of my head both can do with some spring cleaning. So letās get a move on. My ReDiscovery is a work of love. Love for myself, for the folks around me and for the whole world. One day at a time. Love.
@JennyH Congrats on making it through your Bday sober! Thatās a big one for you I know. Coming here instead of giving is a big tool. Keep going!
@Steve14 Thatās awful Steve. So sorry. Such a waste and all around so very sad.
@Chevy55 Thanks for being here and sharing friend. Weāre truly in this together.
@MrFantastik A third of year is pretty cool! Congrats friend!

Good morning, checking in on Day 9. Thank you all again, being here with your support made all the difference. Now husband is back at work so feeling like the danger of it being a special occasion has passed. I still have the week off so will be here a lot.
Spring was definitely here in the SE of the UK yesterday, hopefully everyone else in Europe will see it soon. It is rainy here today but I donāt mind after such a beautiful day yesterday. Canāt believe you have snow @MrsOdh I was just thinking a couple of days ago that we didnāt get snow this winter here.

Hello hello hello
Perfect morning. Woke up before the rest of gang, shower, yoga, our april fit-challenge (man, burpees againā¦), coffee. Kids bodies are still confused after changing time, I couldnāt wake them up today. Had to play some happy songs on speaker, sing, dance 
we had some good laughs when they finally got out of bed. Sacha was a bit late to school but he brushed his teeth, ate breakfast, we had some fun, so thatās important.
Now I have a time for 2nd coffee and then I go to library for my Dutch lesson. Iām not sure if I will keep coming to this one (every Thursday I go to one library and every second Tuesday to another), last time, it was my first time there, except me were only 3 men and their dutch level was much lower than mine, I dont think I can learn something there. But definitely gonna keep going at Thursdays. I will see today how it feels. No pressure.
Today Sacha have his first meeting with speech therapist. Finally. We were on waiting list for ages. Iām very curious about that. Unfortunately I must take twins with me as well cause my husband gonna be still at work and I have nobody to stay with them. The therapist said itās not a problem, itās just first meeting, maybe 25 min, only this time I must be there with Sacha and I can take twins with me. Well, ok then I just hope they wonāt go full ballistic there.
So thatās the plan for today.
Wish you all good day, good night, bon appetit etc

Wow, I am exhausted just reading that! I had forgotten how tiring (but fun) the younger years can be. I do miss it. My son (now 14) had severe speech problems and now speaks beautifully. In fact, when he started to talk people used to say how posh he sounded because of all the intervention 
Hope the appointment goes well.

I have a 14 y/o too. Heās high functioning autistic, but didnāt say a word before he was 4.
He was completely silent.
Doctor said not to worry, that heāll talk eventually. And he did. In both Swedish and English.
His brother now 12 couldnāt say R (which is common here since Swedish have a special rolling R sound like in Spanish)
Until he was like 8. Nowdays he mix between Swedish, English and Spanish sometimes in the same sentence.

Checking in for Day 5
Still feeling somewhat foggy and tired. Thankful that it is the school holidays so have been having some relaxing days at home with the kids, watching movies and playing board games.
Did have some thoughts earlier about drinking, but have pulled myself out of that. But have turned to ice cream and other junk instead for now, but do not want that becoming a bad habit either. One step at a time.
Hope everyone is doing ok!

The area is very nice. Beautiful nature. Supossed to get rather warm towards the end of the week too.

We used to live closer to the Netherlands, and the bike nerds we are we would use many opportunities to visit our neighbours and shamelessly enjoy their infrastructure
Especially the area between Arnhem and Apeldoorn is such a treat
