Back to reality

So today we got home after a brilliant week away-I cant say it was all relaxation but it had its moments.  the 3 kids had a brilliant time, they got to go swimming every day, done activities like ziplining and wall climbing and the youngest is now obsessed with arcades lol.  My wife and I did get to spend an amazing half a day in the Center Parcs spa Aqua Sana and there we done a sound bath- not sure its my sort of thing but overall a brilliant time was had.  As anyone with an Autistic child knows, after a holiday or an event a meltdown is sometimes inevitable- and tonight our daughter had one which was tough and really hard on her, we had to use our deep breathing and her melatonin drops to help bring her down.  

I did have a discussion with my wife around how I  have learned to react to certain events, doing it the normal way and after 44 years on this earth i have gotten good at certain masking, but I did say I struggled to watch our daughter  try and learn her way on this.  I only hope as she gets older it gets a little easier for her.  

I am struggling to stick to doing a blog, and I know this is all part of the ADHD, but i have committed to putting my thoughts and feelings down here so that i am taking control so I will stick with it and get better at it.  I do want to tell more people so they are aware that if I came across rude or abrupt over the years there is probably a reasonable reason,  and I'm sure at times I will repeat myself  but lets get this moving to help both myself and any others.
