Life is Good!

The longer between posts, the better. It's now December and we're in full Christmas preparation mode. Things are still going great for me. I got frustrated this week when I went back to work on Monday for a few hours before being told that I needed to go home since I hadn't been cleared to go back to work. It's a long story so I'll try to summarize. The company that manages disability for my work sent out return to work paperwork later than they should have, which meant I couldn't get clearance in time to return on November 30 like I was supposed to. Then between work and the other company, I was being told to do two different things to take the next step. Finally I got it straightened out, and now have my fit for duty test scheduled for this Monday at 11:00, which means that if all goes well, I should be back in the office Tuesday morning...finally.

Thanksgiving weekend went well. No stress for me there as we were able to spend a lot of time with Susie, Adam and Bella. We even did an impromptu sleepover at my parents' house Friday night. It was a lot of fun. We played a lot of games after the kids were asleep. Then on Saturday, we took family pictures at JC Penney with us, my parents, Susie, Adam and Bella and my grandma and uncle. They came out really good.

I just got back from an appointment with my therapist and it sounds like I may have only have one more appointment with her (in two weeks). After that, if everything is going well, I won't need to see her, although I'll continue seeing the psychiatrist monthly, I assume to monitor the med's I'm on.

So all in all, life is good. I'm feeling pretty normal and good and looking forward to getting back into the swing of things at work this next week. I'm really hoping I continue to feel this way. If I do, there may not be many more posts here, which would be a good thing in my eyes...or fingers.
