The countdown begins

 I keep coming here and writing posts, only to delete them halfway through.  I am constantly writing about my fears, and it gets tiresome.

Another couple of weeks, and it will be time for school to start.  Another year, bright, shiny, and new waits for us.  I think that this year will be better than the last.  Toward the end of the year last year, we changed doctors, and it was a good change.  He made several med changes, actually reducing the meds that J is on, and taking away the ones that weren't doing anything for him.   I won't get into a slam about the previous doctor.  I think that he was doing what was necessary to get through his day.  But it wasn't helping us get through our day.

J got to spend the afternoon with friends the other day.  It was amazing.  He rarely gets invited to anything, and to have someone want him to come over, and spend a whole afternoon with him was wonderful.  Little brother got to go too, and they spent the afternoon at the pool, and then at the friend's house, before heading to VBS.

The next couple of days after it have been pretty rough though.  It was another one of those things that we deal with.  Days before and after an event leave J wound up and really hard to deal with.  That, combined with school getting ready to start has made us all cranky. :)
