I made the decision this past week to go ahead and turn the first year of this blog into a book. It is now available in paperback
HERE. I wanted to assure those who have posted comments to the blog all this time that no comments are included. It is just my ramblings and journalings, so no worries.
***********************************************************************************
Now that my daughter is 18, she is wanting more adult-type responsibilities. She wants to be responsible for taking her meds, for getting them refilled, for making and keeping her appointments ... and she's wanting to move out into her own place.
*nervous sigh*
So, we've been letting her. Except for the move out part. She doesn't have the income, yet, for that & it's really frustrating her. She's going to school full-time at the university and just started her second part-time job. This is an important life lesson for her and she's learning it takes a lot more than really wanting a really cool apartment to make it happen.
She's been doing ok with taking her meds & making and keeping her appointments. However, the refill thing is not being as easy as she thought, either. She's been out of her GABA for a few days now. It's at the pharmacy all refilled and ready for her to go pick it up, she just hasn't. Argh! I hope she makes it happen soon. At least the other meds are still onboard & she has been taking them regularly as prescribed.
Last weekend I was certified in
Reiki I natural healing. I gave her a treatment last night & she really seemed to enjoy it. It calmed her right down. I hope she'll let this be a regular thing. I really think it will help her a lot. In fact, I know it will.
