Touch the Sky December 14, 2004 9:06 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a commentLast night in the Asperger’s Support Group a mother recounted a tale of her son’s daredevil activities and I had to chuckle to myself because it sounded so similar to my attempt to touch the sky.
I was probably 5 in Wilmington, NC. It’s a quaint little oceanside town of 60,000. Good people. Our house was a one story house with a nice sized front and backyard. The front yard had a huge Magnolia tree with one branch that had a horizontally split in it. My brother and I could put the handgranade shaped seed pods into the split and move the branch to make it devour the cone. We called it The Alligator.
I have always been a climber. Wouldn’t stay in my crib. Climbed down the side of Grandfather Mountain. No tree could stop me. No precipice could frighten me.
One day between the ages of 3 and 6 I took it upon myself to “touch the sky.” I climbed that magnolia tree until my little head popped out of the top. The branches must have barely been supporting me. Fortunately a sharp tone from my mother brought me back down. The story from the support group told of the child demanding that his mother rent a crane to get him out of his tree! (She talked him down)

Makes me want to run outside and spend 3 days preping the sled hill (removing roots, stumps and other obsticles).

Cool Fly By December 14, 2004 11:09 am
Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a commentI was watching out the back window and a hawk swooped down and flew about 5 feet off the ground through our trees then whooshed up to light on one of the Oaks. It caused quite a stir in the community. I’m not certain if it scored any small fowl but it was a beauty to watch!
(similar to this hawk)

Tell you what, nothing feels better.
Dad: “Noah, don’t go in that bedroom.”
Noah: Goes in bedroom anyway.
Dad: Loses temper.
Noah: Cries.
Tell you what, nothing feels worse.

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
This Morning
I had to grab some zzs last night. I woke at 2am and almost pulled myself from bed. Woke again at 4am and could tell the fire was out but could not rise. Finally rose at 6am but I am not kicking myself. I feel rested.
Today shall be more intense programming and documentation. I have 13 communities to build by tomorrow.
