New Week

And another new day has come. I had a good cry after I posted last night and am feeling much better this morning. I have no other options than to take a deep breath and power on through this, do I?

Anyway, we're getting ready to leave home in a few to drop the kids off at day care and then take J.J. to have some labs drawn (he was supposed to have this done Saturday morning but we couldn't leave pukey kid long enough to do it). After this, I'll drop J.J. off at home and will head into work. I should be there by 9:00, which means if I skip lunch I'll get a full day in. J.J. has his last session of physical therapy today, followed by speech therapy (he'll be doing speech for another three weeks or so). I have a dental appointment this evening (still working on getting my root canal totally done; this one is just to take the impressions to have my permanent crown made. My gums were bleeding too much on Saturday to do this), but there are no kid activities tonight. Maybe I'll finally get to bed early. I wouldn't hold my breath on this one.

Oh, and to answer what everyone's thinking after my last post: I am still on my Zoloft. I have been seeing a counselor. I have found an online message board for stroke survivors and their caregivers, and we will be starting to attend a support group in a couple of weeks. I'm really okay, just overwhelmed. Not to mention that I'm not one to suffer in silence, unfortunately!

Time to move ahead through another day. Make it a great one!
