Long Time! :-)

Holy cow, it's been more than a year since I posted last! That's a lot of catching up I have to do. I think I'll be as brief as I can. Not a lot to say anyway, haha.

Lee stayed @ NES until May. I was very proud of him. Working w/People w/ Disabilities is not easy to do, & he was working w/ physically behavioral clients. He then started working for the D.I. in July. He's been there for 6 months and is doing well.

I'm still working for NES & was promoted in May to Resident Manager. My life pretty much revolves around my guys @ work. I'm pretty much On-Call 24/7. I love the guys, but if anything happens in my life, it involves them; even holidays. I haven't seen a lot of my family in over a year, & even more in 2 or more years. I miss them all so much.

As for health, we've had ups & downs. We had our own miracle: a few months ago we had Lee tested again & he came back negative for blood clots on both the blood test & ultrasound! He's still on Coumadin & still has his own physical & emotional problems to overcome, but is working hard to get better.

As for me, my depression, asthma, & acid reflux all kept getting worse as time went on & my stress kept increasing. Thanks to my Bishop, I started getting counseling, but it actually increased my stress because I was beginning to face my problems instead of ignoring them. By December things came to a dangerous head & I took a chance, made payment arrangements for bills, & went to the doctor for myself. I'm now on my own meds & our medication payment each month is enormous, but it had to be done.

Finally, Lee & I have started a new exercise routine which is beginning to show results, so we're keeping our fingers crossed!
