Big Girl!

Carlise lost her first tooth!!! Ben & I were a little freaked out at first. It was a new first and something we had no experience with. We felt like new parents all over again. After a a phone call or two to veteran parents we were assured it was normal and not damage caused by a massive sucker she chewed on the night before. The best thing is that she didn't freak out like she tends to do about everything else. The kids were eating dinner, Ben walke in and noticed Carlise was missing a tooth. I got on my hands and knees and scoured the floor for it. Oh yeah, it's the only white speck with blood on it. She wrote a note to the ToothFairy explaining her tooth would be under her pillow tomorrow night instead of tonight. We're going to Grandma's tomorrow and she's going to make a tooth fairy pillow for Carlise's tooth. Thank you Mom!!

therapy

Due to some asinine issues with our pharmaceutical insurance my meds didn't get here when they were supposed to. Ergo, I went a week without my antidepressants. Not good. I guess when things are going good, you kinda forget how bad things were that led you to get help and start therapy and so going without it doesn't seem like such a big deal. And it is. a big deal.

I was crying on the phone with a complete stranger over the shipping date of my medicine. And that wasn't the worst part. *Sigh*
Thank goodness for on-call doctors that respond quickly and recognize the urgency in situations.

I'm much better. And this will never happen again.
