About Me

I am a below knee amputee. More importantly, I am also Mommy to two boys, a very active 10 year old (Robby) and an mischievous toddler (Timmy). I have learned that being a parent with a disability can create some unusual and sometimes humorous situations. This blogger is available for hire! Let's talk and learn how a blog can expand your business.

Mundane

 Yesterday was uneventful. It felt like just about every other day during social distancing. With the exception of my very clean floors, everything was quiet and rather boring.  

The boys are all settling into their school routines. Scott goes downstairs to his makeshift classroom every morning. With the exception of a brief visit during lunchtime, we don't see him until the end of the school day. With him sequestered in a separate part of the house, it is easy to forget that he is still home. 

Robby and Timmy are both adjusting to their schoolwork. Timmy hasn't cried at all this week, which is a monumental improvement over last week's disastrous start to school. We are both figuring out way through our new roles as teacher and student. In retrospect,  I was naive to hope that we would not experience growing pains.

While I was working, teaching, cooking and running around the house, Homer kept on task with my floors. This little robot is amazing. I'm a little embarrassed by how much joy this has brought to my rather mundane life. I never would have envisioned that I would become giddy over a vacuum!
