let's check in

things here are so much better than they were six months ago. i have been a bit bad lately about remembering my meds, but i'm feeling pretty even overall. there's a lot of upheaval coming at work in about six weeks and i'm going to have to take on a lot more responsibility, so i'm starting to prepare myself for that.

still seeing my therapist and the marriage counselor and both are working out pretty well. my best friend will be in from germany on monday and i can hardly contain myself.

hope you all are well.

Been noticing your 'up-ness.' Very pleased about it.

Some medical issues cooking, none of which I think in fact are major, but seeing more docs and tests than I ever have. AND my younger daughter, who had a baby 3 months ago, didn't want to marry without her father to walk her down the aisle, he died last year, seems to have decided she's ready to marry! I sent her her wedding money today, which we'd saved for years, she's bought her dress already! And I've started to look for a dress, so things happening,

no idea how long it takes to spread. she has a few new lumps, but they seem to be checked by treatment with antihistamine. which sounds weird but is apparently how it all works.
ex is refusing to pay for her care, but should have a hearing on this soon. got a new lawyer.
now just have to get the big boys some new hips and all will be good.
argh.

then if the city would back off my farm, all will be good.

I'm getting piled on by the universe.
I just read something on a rescue Facebook page I follow, and I burst into tears. Family and home life disastrous. Work stress.


This is how I feel daily.

Like I said, I'm scared
