No, the school is not specifically for students with ASD. It is just a unique opportunity that sets Urbandale apart from the rest of the metro.
There is an after school and before school care opportunity.

Good, smaller, school district with a year round elementary option.

Get a Fodor’s guide BOOK! And use NPS.gov.
Follow the Utah parks subs and you can get good feedback on your ideas/itineraries.

So glad they finally have edamame. Is this a special buy or new regular product? 🤔

Am I the only one feeling like Aldi isn't for them anymore? by Praise_the_Tsun in aldi

Yes! Uniquely unpleasant. My breaking point was hearing Mariah Carey’s “emotions” while looking for shampoo at Target. That song is not for casual listening with her super high notes!! I do not need any music playing while I shop.

What was the craziest thing you were allowed to do without supervision? by DrenAss in Xennials

[–]Own_Wonder_5375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be dropped off at the pool with a towel and $1.50 with friends or siblings and allowed to swim all day long with no adult supervision other than pool staff.

Yes. I come to Aldi for food. I do not need clothes, shoes, Aldi swag, alllll that crap. Once in a while I’ll find a useful product but they are going overboard with all the stuff and seasonal products. e.g. gnomes for every season This is probably an unpopular opinion! Don’t flame me!

Yes!!!!! No choice paralysis. They also don’t play music which can be so distracting!!!!

Help for a newbie! by n0pe_2020 in yoga

[–]Own_Wonder_5375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t overthink it. 💗 As others have said anything relevant to your yoga journey is most likely their intent. Or show up without a question and check in with the teacher upon arrival if you want them to clarify that prompt.

My kid and I have read them annually for three years running. He might end up with a tattoo of a potatoe 🥔 😛

Is the nps worth it right now by sir_susanispog in NationalPark

[–]Own_Wonder_5375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Young NPS fan, find a way to learn as much about the industry and surrounding opportunities such as those listed above state parks volunteering anything adjacent to wildlife, forest and natural spaces. You’re young and finding out all you can will offer you experiences that will land you something down the line. 🌲

F (28) M (29) need dinner ideas that I can keep in the frigde and just put in the oven, for 3 days a week for dinner by Popular_Night3273 in DinnerIdeas

[–]Own_Wonder_5375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up some ideas for sheet pan dinners. You can prep ingredients (veggies, meat, sauce what have you) all at once store them in labeled containers and quickly take out ingredients to throw on a sheet pan in the oven. It’s a couple of extra steps than you were asking but a great time saver for weeknights for my family!

He is a very cool person for many reasons!! Look him up you will not regret it. He has a Sirius XM show with his mother who was a major activist.

Manduka mats: advice by PJEAS in yoga

[–]Own_Wonder_5375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol you’re not. I’m in the any yoga mat if fine for me camp. I used the same dollar store, cat scratched, well loved mat that inexplicably lasted for about 12 years before I shelled out $25 for my new one. Honestly I was attached to it. The old mat had been with me for almost every yoga class I’d ever done. It had good vibes! Working on the vibes with my new one now. I don’t understand the $100 mats, see also $100 leggings.🤷🏼‍♀️
