Shouting from the roof-top

We FINALLY got a call from the Paediatrician's office last night! Whoop Whoop!! I'm so excited. We are scheduled for Monday, May 11 @ 1pm. I couldn't possibly be more thrilled. Well, I'd be thrilled to get a call from the clinical psychologist's office as well... but at least we're going to be able to talk to SOMEONE who may be able to help guide us through this.

Big news for tomorrow as well. We are going to a seminar to hear Dr. Ross Green speak. He is the author of "The Explosive Child" http://www.explosivechild.com/books/index.html. I've started to read his book and it is very interesting. This is big news for this little town to have such a renowned person visit us. He has a PhD from Harvard and is apparently a phenomenal speaker/teacher/psychologist. I will definitely comment on this afterwards.

So today I'm going to bask in the glow of happiness... I may even make some money today. Throughout this whole journey with S, I have also been looking for another job so that I can be home more in the evenings and have a more "scheduled" life. I think that is key for Spencer right now. I have put the perfect job posting on my vision board and am willing it to happen. I've had a picture of the Statue of Liberty on my vision board for two years now and my friend Jen and I and three others are planning a trip to NYC in October! This will be my first time. I'm pretty psyched. For those who aren't familiar with what I'm talking about... you have to read The Secret. Visit http://www.thesecret.tv/movie/trailer.html

OMG - I just got a call from our Realtor... we are also in the process of selling our cottage. There is an offer coming in... I'm psyched. This will relieve a lot of stress if we can get this sold!! The sunshine just keeps coming!

It seems like every month this year has brought about SOMETHING stressful to our lives: January - my husband dislocated and broke his shoulder and was out of work for 6 weeks. February - our basement flooded. March - Spencer stopped talking. April - we're dealing with everything and list our cottage for sale. May - the turn-around... We are going to sell our cottage, get help for Spencer and I'm going to get a new job. I said to a friend back in February (after the 2nd event), "something good will come out of this, I just know it." And I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Staying positive is the key.

Okay - enough ramblings from me for the day!

Cheers!
