The meds are not working!!!!!!!!!

About a week ago my family doc put me on Lexapro, the miracle drug for anxiety and depression. (who woulda thunk?) They are little pills that make mommy happy and not care about stress. I am a much more relaxed person and people want to be around me more these days. The only problem is they make me a lil nauseous. With having a touch of the bug a few days back I opted to quit taking them for a short bit to help my stomach get back on track. James made a comment on the phone last night..."Honey were you suppose to take your medicine once a day or twice? " I responded with "Can you tell I haven't taken them in a while?" He quickly answered "uh.... Yes!" So today with my stomach better I took one first thing this morning.



I cancelled my counseling appointment this morning when I saw all of the school closing still in affect. My friend Marlina, still came over to scan some pics for her video for her wedding. It wasn't a problem until we discovered that the 20 minutes that I spent scanning pics only resulted in one pic making it to the computer to save. I was trying to figure out what the problem was while explaining to Victoria that I will put High School Musical in for her in a bit when there was a knock at the door. I opened it to find that I had forgotten about a scheduled 10:30 therapy appointment for Anthony. (Glad I cancelled my 10:30 with my counselor) Then the phone rang! OK so let's see.....computer not working like it should for Marlina and I, Therapist here to work with Anthony not prepared, babies were suppose to eat a half hour ago (lost track of time dealing with computer) and starting to get fussy, Victoria wanting to watch a movie, and the phone ringing all at the same time...........FIND A VEIN I NEED 1000CC'S OF LEXAPRO STAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't imagine why I would be dealing with anxiety! We managed though, I lead the therapist into the nursery to show her to Anthony so that she could get started, put in a movie for Victoria, and put Addison in her bouncy seat at the foot of Marlina to bounce while she managed the computer thing on her own, the phone would have to wait. Anthony did amazing with his physical therapy and Kim our therapist ranted and raved about his progress with just the work that I have been doing so far trying to get him to use his left side more.



The phone call was Mamaw and Papaw. Papaw has started shaking alot and they are doing bone scans on him to check things out. Not sure when they are going to have results on that. Mamaw is barely holding up. I just try to keep her smiling and laughing. I told her about the therapy and how smart and advanced that Anthony is at his age and she responded with "Of course he is a Craig!" We then got into a playful argument about Pennington blood flowing through his veins too. They are just testing and testing and not giving us a whole lot of info at this point except what they are testing. It is becoming very day by day.



Last night was a very exciting yet scary night for me. Not only was it the beginning of the new season of Big Brother 9 (I am such a sucker for that show) but my son has started inch worm crawling. He only needs to figure out that he can raise up on his hands to realize that he can be VERY mobile! I got it on video for daddy thought I would share. He made a complete 180 on his blanket pushing around. He got quite upset with the fact that he can figure out how to get his face up while trying to navigate. My boy is growing up way to quick.
