3. Hi there, Thats me. Natalie. As you can see, some days are
better than others. I really appreciate you coming to check out my
thoughts. Its nice to be out from behind what I like to call a fog
within I call it that because sometimes it just comes over me like
the fog rolling in from San Francisco Bay. I cant control it, but
sometimes I can see it coming (which is so frustrating). My family
members are really great, but we all get irritated by the effects
of the autism. Because of it, I dont get to relate to people in the
way that Id like. But that doesnt stop everyone. I have some really
great friends: Moose, Theresa, and 105 are some of my favorite
people. I have a few hobbies: Im a whiz at math, I love to look
through the indexes of books (its so calming), and I have a button
collection that you wouldnt believe! Plus, I like to tell jokes (I
even made up one of my own). So, take a moment and come over to my
side of the Bay. Come on. Just turn the page

me. ~Natalie a fog from within
6. Third Stop: The Letter That Changed Everything This whole
process really was a shock for me and my family. It was hard on all
of us. Once I finally received an evaluation, there were so many
questions that I had, but I really didnt know how to go about
asking them. I wasnt entirely sure what was going on there. But my
parents really showed their love and support that made all the
difference. ~Natalie a fog from within
7. Fourth Stop: Mrs. Kellys Reflections The podcasts to the
left are a reflection of the Its funny how adults always book and
how Mrs. Kelly get to know more things would have responded about
whats going on then within the story. what kids do. These podcasts
are about me and I dont even get to listen to This second set of
