The Weirdos

It's been quite a day so far. First I didn't meet my weight requirement for the diet that I am doing, thus almost losing roughly 150 points. Luckily my mom pointed out a loop-hole, and I immediately jumped through.

We had a good weekend, but getting back to the hustle and bustle of being in your own house can be relieving, yet stressful. There is nothing like coming home to the laundry that you had 'accidentally' forgotten about, as well as the three new loads just waiting to be done, still in your suitcase, still in the car. How many days can you ACTUALLY go without clean underwear? At least two, right? I mean, can't you flip them inside-out or something? Needless to say, I have yet to start a load, and the promise of cleaning out the toys before Christmas arrives is not on the top of my list at this point. Instead, I sit here drinking some coffee and typing to you the details of my life that, although seem less than amusing to me, prove to be very interesting to most of the rest of you.

I slammed my thumb in the drawer this morning. It was all I could do to not scream F***! I am pretty sure the only reason I resisted is the fact that we have been telling Zachary that "Oh damn" and "shit" are not appropriate responses to breaking a crayon or spilling a glass of juice. The reason that this made me SO incredibly angry is A. I just slammed my SAME thumb nail in my van door about three weeks ago while trying to stop the popping of a balloon in the bush in the driveway. I figured that it was worth it to not have to endure the 30 minute tantrum that would surely follow and B. I am stressed. I don't do well with the change of the season or the lack of sunshine and I have been what I like to call "wacky off the junk" since I decided I would try to go off of my antidepressants.

Which leads me to my next point. I attract a lot of weirdos. Except for you, of course....(right) So anyway....I have decided that one of two things need to happen. Either I need to find all new friends and family, or I need to consider the common denominator and go back on the Prozac. I think I'll call in my refill after all.

LOL! I know how you feel, trying to get off the anti-depressants. I've tried 3 times since I started on them. It never ends well for me. I'm not even going to try again until the adoption is finalized and it's an average of 80 degrees and sunny everyday. LOL!

Do not stop your antidepressants! Do you hear me? Do not stop! I know. I have tried everything to stop and have for a few weeks but.... I am still on them. The doctor told me not to ever go off of them! I guess I am a lost cause!! :) But I am not weird.

Prozac is the best. I vote for that so you don't have to lose your friends. Only some of them;)
Jen I started during our adoption process to. That was almost 3 years ago. Needless to say there is no talk of going off them. Xanax is nice too:)
