Independence Day weekend

We've spent most of the weekend cleaning and painting.  We did take some time last evening to go visit friends.  It was nice to get out and see other people for a while, and I know it was especially good for the kids.  Catherine's episodes are becoming fairly predictable, which is helpful.  As long as she doesn't get overly tired, she is functioning fairly well.  We started letting the episodes run their course, and they are usually lasting only 10-15 seconds.  This can be difficult, but it could be so much worse.  Overall, it wasn't a bad long weekend at all!
