So, this summer I have been keeping busy with two jobs. Working at an Ice Cream store and also babysitting an autistic boy.
I love working with Austic children. They just have a unique eye for things. They view situations alot differently then "us normal people". Or even how an adult would. For example, He was playing an fishing game on xbox. On one of the tournament rounds, he motored his boat towards another player (computer). Then the computer player comment box came up and said, "Greetings". He then proceeded to stop his boat and verbally replied. He said, "Hi" and then proceeded to waved at the t.v screen.
I found this quite comical and thought I had to share

Infertility and shopping at Salvo
I was in Salvo trying on some clothes for my second job. While mid way through I hear from a young mom screaming at her baby. She was yelling at her daughter saying over and over, "DON'T CHEW THAT, THAT'S DISGUSTING"! Someone (and I assume it was her mom) said, "She probley doesn't understand you, she is just a baby". Then the teen mom said, "I know, but I have to tell her how it is... She is chewing on something she isn't supposed to, so I have to tell her. That's disgusting!"
My first thought was seriously? God, I'm struggling for 9 years with infertility and I have to listen to this mother screaming at her baby for doing what babies do? Really?
Then I thought, this makes me really not even want to buy anything at this store. I can't stand listening to this teen mother screaming at her child. It's just too much. I then proceeded to put my clothes back where I found them and walk out of the store. I thought this is crazy. Maybe I should just pay full price at a retail store or better yet, order online. Then I won't have to deal with ignorant people.
