Last night we were watching TV in the sun room

and I turned to look at my husband  and saw this

over his shoulder. I grabbed the camera and got

in the car. Drove to the back and shot these photos.

It was all over in 10 minutes. That sun sets fast.

Beautiful end to the day.

I mentioned the A word this week and hope I did

not turn people off. Aspergers is a fact that one in

every 160 people in this world has . I found out at the age

of 58 I was when my daughter took me to a conference in

Indianapolis for Aspergers. Her son was in the process

of being diagnosed at that time. We found out that

it is inherited. At the conference they put us A people

in a conference room to let us talk. We were all amazed

at how we were all successful people in all of our careers. 

Most of us were unaware we were A's.

Sometimes we just have a few traits like myself.

Being more aware of things in life. Such as color,

smell and taste. Not liking to be in crowds. Not very

tolerant of bright lights and noise. Just everyday normal

people just a little different or as we think just special.

Normal people are just a little boring. Not as open

to taking chances as we are.

I am glad I am who I am.

Unique.

I feel bad I passed this on to my children and grands.

Some of our cousins have children with severe autism.

So thankful we do not.

High IQ high functioning Aspergers is livable but a

challenge. Growing up feeling different but not knowing

how. I could not choose to not have this but I did

grow with it and succeed in this world.

If you know people with A please share this.
