Spring has arrived
With the snow finally all melted in N. Minnesota, I thought I would post a blog.
Our moving project has been put on hold. Our current house has few trouble areas for Lisa and we are in no hurry. It will happen when it happens. I'm sure we both will have some empty nest syndrome as soon as our daughter leaves.
Our daughter is done with high school in a few weeks, and her and Lisa have been busy planning every thing that goes with that. All the grad party plans are done. The only issue remaining is paying for it. We decided to have the whole thing catered. I know, it's a lot more money, but I don't want to be cooking and playing maid all day. I want to enjoy the day. Prom was last weekend and she looked beautiful. I'm biased, yes, but the Vera Wang dress she was wearing didn't hurt either. She looked very classic. Her apartment is all ready to go and she will be moving in in early July. College starts a few weeks later, but it will give her some time to find a job.
Lisa is doing well. No major improvements, but no setbacks, which is good. She is happy and content. I got 2 new kittens for our house. We have always been cat people and the last 2 we had died at 17 and 18 years recently. It has been entertaining. Lisa has a new PCA who comes to the house 5 days a week and they get along great. So great that we will be taking a vacation to Texas next year and her PCA will come with us.
Me?...I am doing great. Why? I have become part of the anti-depressant generation. Yep. I finally went a talked to my doctor about it. To be honest, it has helped me. No real bad mood swings. My doctor called it angry-man syndrome-example: the house is on fire, I can handle it...someone spills the milk, I'm going to kill somebody. It's true. That was exactly the way I was feeling. I have been very open with anyone who has asked me about it, and if you have been thinking about something like this, GO, GO NOW. I am very happy.
Well, that's pretty much it for now.
Butch
