Things are beginning to settle down for us. I found a job I adore. Cameron is adjusting to his school and we have begun a routine of working on skills he needs to tone for school.

I wouldn’t say things are perfect.. After all, I still find myself lonely and sometimes, even lost. Doing all of this on my own is a challenge. One I would never wish upon anyone else. But I will continue to strive to do better for my son. I will strive to provide him the life he deserves and to help him overcome the difficulties that his conditions causes him. I love my son and he is the best thing that ever happened to me.

Yes, at times, I don’t think I will make it through and I wish things were different. But he challenges me, he makes me laugh and without him, my life would truly be empty. I just wish his brother was closer, that he could partake in our life. But, of course, that is a horse of a different color.

Anyways, one of my plans is to begin cooking and trying to eat healthier. We spent a long, agonizing couple of hours grocery shopping this afternoon and I’ll be posting the recipes as I try them out.

Upcoming Recipes:

• Chicken Milanese
• Pasta with Beef and Broccoli Rabe
• Linguine with White Clam Sauce
• Garlic Chicken with Rosemary
• Pasta and Vegetable Frittata
• Beef and Mushroom Dijon
• Cuban Black Beans and Rice
• Chilled Spaghetti Salad
• Greek-Style Pizza
• Pan-Grilled Veggie Pasta Primavera
• Penne Alfredo with Tomatoes
• Baked Eggplant Parmesan

Hopefully most of these will prove to be delicious. Especially since I’m the only guinea pig I have!

Wish me luck!
