5 days with out the boys

So Joel came home to help see the boys off and help pack the car. Who knew 2 boys needed so much stuff lol.

They were so excited and we got to hear a very long animated action-packed wish list from tiny tornado of the things he hopes they do. This child of mine. We got the best hugs from him. He was trying to give us a big hug that will last 5 days. They even got huggs from Sissy

I know they are in great hands with Joel's ex wife but I'm still anxious. We've never been this far apart. I can tell Joel is a little nervous too.

It's only a 3 hour drive but I'm sure it will take them twice a long. They have a few stops planned and I'm sure they will be many unscheduled stops too LOL

So their off and we're boyless. I miss them already lol.

This is a big step for you and your tiny tornado. I am pretty sure he will be fine for a few days. Besides, you and Joel need some time together, especially with so many people in that house.

@Barefooter25 yeah the house is completely different with out our boys. Joel and I are going out Friday night and I can't wait. We're getting Texas Roadhouse and taking it to a cigar lounge. My buddy got us a very nice bottle of whiskey and tequila for our night out.

But I miss my boy. He's never been this far away from me.

I bet he has more things he wants to do than he has hours to do them in - even if he doesn't eat or sleep the entire time... gotta love the autistic brain for being unable to work out how long something will take to do at times... 🤣🤣🤣

@HootyTheNightOwl yes lol I don't think his brother or Joel's ex wife could possibly keep up with him. But I love his excitement.

he's not on the spectrum he has ADHD.

@Cigarguy Time blindness is a common overlapping symptom of both autism and ADHD. I only learned that recently myself because I'm trying to understand me better... but I keep getting sidetracked when I think of something else that seems similar and that needs to be investigated, too... 🤣🤣🤣

Cigarguy · M

@HootyTheNightOwl yeah he gets so excited and wants to do it all. He's going to have a blast though even if they only do half of what he told me about before they left
