I know it's wrong

I'm happy today is my day off.  I know that sounds normal,  but it's visitation day.  I get a quiet non meltdown free household until tomarrow.  I think the most important thing if you can swing it is alone time.  If you don't have some escape from the pressure.   I find that a family member that can handle your child overnight is good.  Critter has another friend from school who has asperger's too.  He is more symptomatic than critter, and sometimes he spends the night there.  Sometimes I put him on the computer with a game and go in my bedroom and read.  Sometimes you get an hour or so.  

Critter is a snuggler.  He likes to be held tight.  He also wraps himself tight in blankets when he sleeps.  I know this is normal, but it's 90 degrees in there.  It makes me want to sit in the fridge.  Being the way he is I don't get a lot of alone time.  Sometimes when he gets his wandering the house issue.  We go to bed anyway.  We know he'll be in to check on us in an hour.  He does this about 5 am on a normal day.  The bedroom door will open a crack and I'll hear a little voice say "mom".  I say what and he says ok just checking did you check on me.  We check on him at 3.  We have to go in the room.  Because when he comes in at 5 he always asks.

Well, it's my day off so I'm going to do something.
