Matt's weekend passes out of the hospital were awesome this weekend!

We went to Ryan's both days and Matt went to the park and to a another kid's house to play with Ryan's kids. I was just impressed! He left his comfort zone and had lot's of fun! It's funny how one week of being forced to interact is helping so much!

I also had a great time out this weekend. Saturday night we went to the casino, ate dinner out and went for a drive. We won some money and had lot's of fun. I was rather terrified at first but had relaxed by the end of the night.

Even better, I went to the casino in the states with Ryan this evening, and wasn't nervous, anxious or afraid in the least! That's a first for me in over a year! *does back flips*

Matt's assessment is coming along fine. They think he may have a mild learning disorder. If he does, I probably have it too, as we share the same issues. They are looking at a possible mild form of ADHD, however, it could just be his anxiety. They are not sure if it's both or just the one masking it. I will know more on Thursday.

For some stupid reason, they keep complimenting me on being "so honest" and "willing to talk" about our past and what I think needs to change at home etc... Why? Is there something rather special about that or what? Sorry just confuses me. I can't change what I don't acknowledge and they need to know it all to help us. At least that is how I see it.

So it's been very good but I've been busy. I have appointments (some days five or more) everyday plus I'm squishing in time out and time at Ryan's. I think when Matt gets home, I'm gonna sleep for a week! lol
