Trusera sent out a message entitled "Bright Ideas about Autism" which featured you, so expect some new visitors to your pages!

I have friends close to the area of Renton you're in. After almost two years here I can say I know my way around fairly well. :)

Calla, I appreciate all the trouble you went to to bookmark mom26's home makeover. Just beautiful. Thanks.

I think of all the confusion and questions and misunderstanding with my son. The more we learn the easier our lives are.

Thanks to trusera - we can figure more out together.

Thanks.

Been there, done that, seen the blank stares. Every autistic kid is different. The dude responds well to rewards and not at all to punishments. It's like punishing a blind man for not seeing the sun.

Read "Autism Is Not An Excuse" and tell me if you think you could possibly do this with Max - in fact, ask Lucretia and see what she says. Wouldn't it be great to be able to get this result from him?! Love, Mom

Thank you for the comments and connection. It is amazing how hindsight provides such a clearer picture, isn't it?

I went to the Showbox SoDo Saturday night (The Hives were playing!!!) Although pretty big, the show was really intimate. I feel like I got to know The Hives. I'm starting to feel like I will eventually figure Seattle out.

Yeah, I'm originally from SLC. Luckily I broke the lock on my cage and escaped! I'm loving Seattle. The only place I've gone for shows yet is Chop Suey (on Madison and about, what... 14th?), and I really liked it there. I hear Neumo's on Pike is pretty good as well. I've been keeping up with upcoming shows via either NowOnTour.com or Last.fm's events section. Welcome to the site!

Thanks for joining Trusera and being a part of creating a groundbreaking new resource for the community. We are very excited to have you as a member! We hope you find Trusera to be both useful and supportive.
