Mom? What's a difficult child?
Well I made it, kind of!!! I just wanted to say hi and that I am missing you all...
I am gone around a week and the board has changed!!! Not too much though. I will have to look through some of it.
It has been HOT, but you know I am doing OK with it, all of us are so far. It has been, 100-112 almost every day.
No monsoons yet, but they say they are just taking a break.
We do not have internet or phone or cable yet... maybe the end of the week? I am at the in-laws for the night. We are still waiting for the moving truck!
It is late.
We have been having to set up School stuff, buy junk for the house. All of the basics. It is impossible to move a lot of that stuff across the country in this heat!
I did pack most of my plants and candles in my van with the cats! They all made it. We shaved the long haired calico prior to moving. She is in heaven. We have only let her out a little bit with us!
So far lots of stress just wanting to get some stuff set up before the girls start school Thursday. But I guess the truck will arrive when it feels like it?
We have our psychiatrist apt on Tuesday. K has been kind of down, pretty down. I think the Seroquel is curbing her highs and ups... but not touching the lows and making them seem more intense. She is trying though.
I feel like I have gained 100 pounds... all we can do right now is eat on the run and easy food... BLAH.
husband was walking up to the house yesterday and right on the side of the path to the door... HUGE Tarantula.
I actually went and looked at it. I took a deep breath an said lets just leave it and let it go on it's way. (So proud of myself). We came back today, it was still there and had not moved? So I said either it is doing some weird thing to catch food or it is dead. I threw some gravel near it and hit it's leg. No movement... it was dead. We are going to leave it and let it dry out!
Our front yard is overrun with Ground Squirrels. I am reading up and getting used to the BIG bugs and things here... Cacaroaches, big spiders, pack rats, lots of jack rabbits... Bob cats, coyotes, Javalinas...
So that is about it. School was of course confused, paperwork not transfered over, so they were not aware that we were coming! I did not want to start off on the wrong foot... I kept apologizing for the confusion. Even though we had done everything they asked. They found K's info, at another School and are having it sent over. Whew...
I will be back officially most likely next week. i am sorry I am missing out on anyone's struggles, joy's, happiness everything... I will be back to trying to support my friends ASAP.
