So spank me!?
I know I said I was to write the next day after my last post. I didn’t. Sorry. Things are going well, but I guess the will of writing every day is not back yet.
The guy from the insurance came by. It was a nice day, so I asked if we could sit outside. We had coffee and a very nice chat. Like all the others, he’s amazed at all the progress I’ve made on my own. He is not surprised that I was medicated when things could have been fixed in a matter of a few months.
I told him I couldn’t afford anymore visits to the psychologist and that I had reached my quota in June. He has agreed to pay for extra visits. I’ll be able to go for behavior therapy. Of course he is pushing for me to return to work, but he is not being a pain about it. I told him my doctor wanted to get me off the meds first. He seemed OK with that.
I’m seeing the psychiatrist later today and the behavior shrink on Thursday. I called the insurance guy to let him know I was starting this week. He was pleasantly surprised that things are moving along so fast.
As for my state of mind, I feel so alive and so awake. I do more stuff. I’m not a regular busy bee yet, but I’m getting there. We had to remove plants and flowers from our backyard on Sunday so the guys could come and fix the brick. We had to remove some of our wooden stuff. I worked pretty hard trying to uproot 4X4s from the ground. Although I’m out of shape, things went pretty well. There’s still strength in them arms of mine. The work took about three hours. About half of what I expected.
I’ve been eating my three meals a day. I’m starting to feel hungrier. Don’t worry, I’m being careful with what I eat.
I think things are coming along pretty good. I wish I was doing more, but I guess with what I’ve been through, it’s normal that things comeback little by little. I’m sure one step at a time will soon become one day at a time.
Have fun!?

Would I !?
