Since this is the start of my blog, I’d like to cover several topics that are uniquely important to me. I’ll introduce these topics here so that you can become aware of what they are. As a graphic designer (among other things) for the past twenty plus years, I’ll obviously be sharing some of the tips that I see as I teach my children how to design. Keep in my that one of my children has autism and my daughter has her own special needs.

“I also have Asperger’s but I can manage it. It wasn’t diagnosed until the early Eighties when my wife persuaded me to see a doctor. One of my symptoms included my obsession with ghosts and law enforcement — I carry around a police badge with me, for example. I became obsessed by Hans Holzer, the greatest ghost hunter ever. That’s when the idea of my film Ghostbusters was born.”

I’m planning on sharing tips on how best to raise children on the autism spectrum along alongside another child who has their own challenges but is so very talented. How do you divide and conquer as a parent. How do you not show favoritism? How do you teach to different audiences and students? How do you

In the world of AI (pun intended), I plan to write most of the content for this blog myself. I enjoy writing and all of the tone and ideas I put into it. I’ll also teach you how to pull out the AI artifacts so that your content doesn’t sound so janky. Yeah, janky is a real word. I wrote it. 🙂

The other topics I’ll cover on this blog are:

  • Easy family recipes and meal planning hacks
  • Devotions to keep your life focused on Biblical principles
  • Pet care products and ideas (because fur babies need love too!)
  • Photography tips and tricks (warning: prepare for serious camera geekery)
  • Budget-friendly travel adventures
  • Frugal living strategies that actually work Interior design ideas for real homes
  • Apparel design insights from someone who’s been there

I am excited to share my ideas with you and teach you along the way.

    Raising an autistic adult son, with his own special needs wife, and 2 special needs grandchildren. I have developed an AI mobile app for Adults with Autism and ADHD. It helps manage their time. Something we with autism rarely experience. Time itself to us is a foreign country. We experience all of reality at the same time. We witness it unfolding and folding back in on itself. We Relate to AI.
