It's amazing all the things I remember once I've already jumped headlong into something.
Like the fact that while I'm doing the 365 Photo Challenge...my writing falls to the wayside.
Both jobs are going well.
I finally finished up the 20 on-line courses for the morning job. That took more than a minute to do....but it's all on the clock, so that will be a nice boost to my paycheck when I finally get it.
Afternoon job is good. The kids are good. The staff is good. All good stuff. Man how I missed that job over summer. I wish it was a year-round gig. Eh, no sense in wishing for what cannot be. I just need to be smart with my spending and saving so that summer doesn't wipe me and my husband out again.
I've been playing with my meds again. I couldn't afford to get the Depakote refilled.
And it's not like it's really working all that well anyways. That's why I'm also on Geodon.
So I stopped taking the Depakote and my depression is GONE. I still will sleep 20 hours if given the opportunity, but I think that's because the week just wears me out. I need the extra sleep. On just the Geodon, I'm feeling a bit of creative stirring (something that I've been sorely lacking in the last 6 months). I go see the super shrink on the 27th and I plan to let him know I'm not on the Depakote and haven't been on it for almost 2 months (at that point) and that I have no intentions of going back on it either. I don't even know why he still has me on it. *shrugs* We'll see how that all plays out.
David got tired of me having the occasional cigarette. So he bought me an e-cigarette. Once I start getting paychecks, I plan to buy the fluid that has no nicotine so I won't have that issue. It would be horrible to get addicted on the e-cigarette! *laughs* I have the Irish Cream flavor now, but plan to pick up Angel Wings (smells like cotton candy) when I have money in the bank.
Hard to believe that in 2 days Leviathan turns 7 years old! SEVEN! Wow. Where has the time gone! Hopefully she'll live another 18 years and hit the maximum age. I love that lil serpent. She makes my heart happy.
Dreamt the other night of a weretiger with a snake tattooed on his right shoulder and of a tropical island I was protecting. He lived on the island and I had to prove to him I wasn't with the people that were trying to cut down the forest. A fairly interesting dream.
David's birthday is in 9 days. I need to email the cookie lady and make sure we're on schedule for his fancy Batman cookies. And I need to run to the dollar store and pick up balloons and streamers. I plan to decorate his doorway for his birthday. I don't have a ton of money, so I can't get him a whole lot, but I do plan to do whatever I can to make it a special day for him.
Saturday night we sat up until 6 am talking. Hashing out a lot of things and talking about the future. He's been a lot more loving and I just adore that.
We've been hit hard financially, but we're slowly making a come back.
His job is changing. It's going BACK to just support, which he LOVES doing, so that's a good thing. And he has the potential to make a bit more money, and that's always a good thing.
I can't remember if I've mentioned it or not, and I'm too lazy to go searching....
My mom's offered to fly us up to see David's parents as a Christmas present to us both. Very cool of her. I've only met David's parents once and that was 3 years ago. So now we're just waiting for David to have the time off and then we're going. We're looking at December/January as possible times to go. David's super excited about seeing them again. We'd go tomorrow if he had the time off. *chuckles* But by December, he'll have the time, and we'll just pick a weekend to go. We're planning to fly out on a Friday and come back on a Monday, that way we won't miss as much work but have time to really visit.
