On 23 February my husband and I joined the Tricycle magazine 90-day meditation challenge, meaning that we sit together for 30 minutes per day. We haven't missed a day, even on days when I don't do anything else.
hi gang. my name did not come up on my post??? what happened?
Okay, the therapist went well.
At the doctor: the barium swallow was all okay I have reflux and a better prescription for it.
there is a problem with my mammography results.
Tiamat went to the pediatrician and her sore throat might be tonsil infection or strep (like me) I'll know Friday. And Her doctor is happy the osteopaths have a plausable solution for her motor tic (she looks possessed by a daemon but likes the feel!).
I have about 100$ worth of stuff to sell for school fund raising thanks to the kids... anyone want to buy a $3 bar of chocolate?
wooowohhh I am now on as needed basis with my psychologist!!! Meaning THat for the past two years I have learned to deal with a lot of my emotional issues. When I remember to take a step back I can deal pretty much everything that daily life throws at me! I have to continue practicing the intensity of emtional responses and learn to live with my personal reactions - internal reactions as a normal part of being a living human being.
I am not the fragile little perce-neige that the therapist had no idea what do to with once up on a moon! I am not the chemically unbalanced bipolar person who needed a bit of medication to set her right...
So Good News! Here before you is a a person on the next step, weaning herself off the safety net of a therapist waiting in a month to wipe up my tears of frustration when I do not quite get life... I am trying it on my own for a few months and reporting in during the summer ... after the psychiatrist's visit !!!
Wildcat, I will help you hold your string and maybe, eventually, we can have enough of them that we can braid them to make them stronger. (did that make sense?)
My recent good things, my husband and I went to my Psychologist on Friday. Hubby is finally taking things more seriously and not like a joke now (hopefully this lasts). Hubby and I will both see my Psychologist 1 more time together and then she may suggest couples therapy. Hubby learnt how to wash a load of laundry and dry it (folding will come in time). Met my son's itty, bitty, teeny girlfriend (she is smaller than my youngest daughter who is 5 years younger).
I hope there are others out there who have some things to our list. If you don't think you do, I dare you to come up with one positive thing!!!!!! Don't hold back, there must be one little or big thing you would like to share, ie., trimmed my toenails, washed my face, bought a car, big or little come on now, I know you can do it.
Yesterday, I took my husband to his appt's at the Bariatric Clinic. finally got to see a dietician, who tweaked his diet by removing 2 things from it. Yay, only 2 things to go and prove before we can schedule surgery for him. The option to go with was the new gastric sleeve surgery, this is great because, there is no missed absorption of nutrients, just less food consumption. So this is awesome, hopefully within the next 6 months he can have his surgery and then lose enough weight to get back to work to take some stress off me. This is exciting, something good finally happening at "that hospital".
Last night, the hubby talked about when he is back at work me taking a 6 month to 1 year leave from work so that I can "collect my brains" and "put them back in order". Sounds nice (not realistic but nice). Hubby also said that he doesn't like me on so much medication and feels that I should get a second opinion on the ones for my heart, blood pressure and cholesterol. He does like the effects of the Celexa, he says I am not so b*****.
Tomorrow is the big day, where he gets to meet my therapist and vice versa, I don't know what will happen, but I am trying to be positive and believe that it can only help things. (This is a big stretch got alot of extra unwanted phsyical activity yesterday and I am trying so hard to not be angry/agressive/depressed/moody) What's that saying "fake it, till you make it", is that a good thing or is it just lying to yourself and everyone else?
