So it’s cooled off here in the desert. It’s gorgeous outside, cool in the mornings, highs of mid 80’s. I’m loving it! I keep expecting it to get hot again, but I’ve been assured that this is how it will be for a while, it will only get cooler before it gets hotter again. Hooray!… Continue reading Cooled off…
So, we met with B’s new psychologist last week, no, the week before. Anyway, we met with him. He is awesome! I just hope B likes him too! When we mentioned the confusioin of the diagnosis, mood disorder vs bipolar, he said that it’s the same, which is what I had thought, but that many… Continue reading psychologist…
So we (B & I) saw the psychiatrist (pdoc) yesterday. She is very pleased with how well B is doing, although his lithium levels are still somewhat low. So, she increased his lithium dosage a bit. She has him taking the increase at bedtime, which she said might help him to sleep more, which would… Continue reading Changes…
I’m feeling random tonight! I stamped 3 cards today! Hooray! Small signs of normalcy continue! Granted, they were cased from other people, but by golly, I stamped! They weren’t exact cases either, I changed some things on a couple of them! 🙂 I know, this isn’t my *stampin’ blog* but oh well! I’m doing better,… Continue reading Randomness…
If you’ve read my blog before, you know that the past month or so has been stressful, to say the least. You might say that last Sunday, my last thread finally snapped. There were issues when we picked the kids up from their dad. I became very distraught, and eventually just lost it completely. When… Continue reading It doesn't matter what you call it…
Thursday night was rough. B came in from outside just furious, according to him, another child’s dad had yelled at him and threatened to “kick his a##”. He was insistent that we talk to his other friend who witnessed the whole thing. Donovan & I talked it over, what do we do? We know that… Continue reading Increased…
I’m finally making time to sit down, write a blog post, catch up on e-mail and try to be *normal* for a few minutes. Donovan & B are outside mowing the lawn, so it’s relatively quiet in here for a little bit. I could lay down and nap really, but I shouldn’t. Sleeping during the… Continue reading Finally…
Hooray! We got the call that the doctor had discharged B at about 9:00 this morning! We picked him up at 11:00, it was the quickest hospital discharge I think I’ve ever seen! We were out of there by 11:30!!! We stopped for lunch on the way home, Long John Silver’s (B’s choice). He was… Continue reading He's home…
We had a great visit w/ B tonight! We called on the way, to let them know that we were bringing dinner for him. Somehow, the message got lost, so he had already eaten, but he ate a couple of onion rings, and totally enjoyed the vanilla shake. He was really in a good mood.… Continue reading Good visit…
Yesterday I got a call from the therapist, we have a family session scheduled for Thursday at 11:00 am. She said the doctor requested it, and said that he will probably go home after the session. Probably NOT Thursday, but Friday. Last night when we visited, B was NOT happy to hear that he would… Continue reading Friday?
