Autism Acceptance & Understanding 2014 Day 27: Sense of humor

Keeping and maintaining a sense of humor through the years has been vital.  No, it is not always possible to laugh at situations, especially when you are in the throngs of a meltdown.  But with hindsight, and especially sharing the story with Rob or with my dear colleagues at work who GET IT, laughter usually happens.  I can tell you that among those closest to me, we've all developed a wicked and (at times) rather dark sense of humor.  I really do believe that laughter can be the best medicine.

So, when a day has been particularly rough, I go for my bookmarked YouTube videos that I cannot watch without laughing.  I'll let you in on my little library of laughter...
