News that's fit to...

Postby DimSum » Tue Jan 10, 2017 8:14 pm

Well... I'm sure that Fisher hasn't told anyone.... here's what's been going on....

Cookie is now engaged to her young man (father of the Crumb) and is also now an LPN.
We are working on permanent custody of the grandboy, who informed us that his "little boy name" was Poe, but his "big boy name" was Sean, and he is a big boy, so would we PLEASE call him Sean. And when he becomes our "forever boy", could he please have our last name?
We found a school that works with Sean's special needs. I was right when I said that he was autistic. He is very highly functioning, but he has issues dealing with the wider world. The school that he's in now, helps him to deal with that. He still has "angry white boy" issues, but they are few and farther between, thank the Gods. And we don't have to worry about him being expelled anymore.
We just became great-grandparents. Yeah... I know... the thought blows me away too!
I graduate in the spring, and start at CalState Sacramento in the fall, to finish my degree in Political History.
Fisher is going to retire from the military (after 40 years of Active and Reserve service) in July. This one I'll believe when I see the retirement papers.

Now you know everything....


NO! You get eggroll with number #4!

I'm pretty sure we agreed at one time that this one was supposed to be the sedate ride.... But I think there was a drum circle, dancing and sangria involved....

Sean indeed sounds adorable, and he's so lucky to have you two in his life. :)

The rest sounds good too, of course- say hi to Cookie from me!
Yes, I have a life. It's quite different from yours.

Sean IS adorable! Did you see the video that I posted on FB of his engineering feats at Yule? He got a snap circuit kit... and LOVES to make things that light up! And play video games! And did you know that Fisher farts rainbows? Just ask Sean! (Grandma is still pate)

sean is adorable, very smart and very well-behaved.

come gentle night. come loving black browed night
give me my romeo. and when he shall die
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all will be in love with night
