Let's Get This Day Under Us Too!
Good Morning, good morning …In much too good a mood to do school. This isn’t something the others are going to like, but umm, I’ll try later, k? We’re about six LONNNNNNNG paragraphs through with one more hard paragraph, and four easy ones left on the next paper. Maybe we can get to bed without pain tonight and wake up early to finish. Theoretically, it’s not due yet, so we’re ok, but we’re also trying to work a little ahead of time. So, we got to be thinking about it.
I’m not sure what we want to think of next. I would like to say the pain pills are really helping our hurting part. We did something to our body yesterday that pretty much crippled us up. But, if its not feeling as bad as before … we feel not a care in the world!
Well, one care … have a tough morning in front of us. Sister’s mad again, because we told her we were in too much pain to watch the lower functioning group this morning. She wanted to take out the DSP so she could go shopping. She was pretty crabby when telling us we’d have to do it, so even though she stomped into the room where the DSP was and told her that we were giving her static again, we thought BLAH to her! There was some frustration in having been written up in that we felt no compulsion to help her out on her whimsical shopping trip. ESPECIALLY, since I told her we had a staffing at 10 am. She was like I don’t matter, so it didn’t matter and that’s pretty un-ok in our book. Hmpf!
Let her grumble some more as far as we care!
Ok, maybe that’s not too nice thinking. But, it’s pretty much where we are at. See all you people that thought we were so nice … we have a cranky side too!
But, we’re better at not letting us stick to our every waking thoughts. So be the case, let’s talk about something else
The best news is that we hit a new low … 278.6 YAYYYY. We cheated in our thoughts and went back to the original high weight … so that means we’re 34 pounds down!!! Only like 138 more to go … which MEANS … we’re officially 20% done! YAYYYYYY!!! Our other best dieting effort we topped out at 32 pounds lost, so we’re now at a major marker point for that too. This means we’re doing our best dieting ever! Double YAYYYYYY!!! Whoops … forgot. At this kind of effort people aren’t dieting, they’ve made lifestyle changes hehehe.
We had a pretty good session with Dr. M. yesterday. Casey was out for quite a bit. We think there were other younger parts with her. It’s been a while since she’s had a big part of the sessions. We always walk in strangely in fear of Dr. M. But, this time we figured we were going to stay with that experience. Usually, what happens is that we scoot past him at the door, and then angrily pout for the first 3-5 minutes before someone says enough of that … wasting good time! This time we didn’t pull away.
It seems she had a lot of confused feelings to work through … started off something like being mad that he was gone, but mad also that he was there. She worked through the feelings but couldn’t cross out the part that after our mother entered the picture, that she wasn’t really there. She still fears the mother terribly. Dr. M. is usually switched into her mind of being our late grandfather. Cept she is doing better on that score, sometimes she’ll give him the benefit of the doubt that he is really Dr. M. But, she gets to a point where she becomes too upset, and then she either disappears, or is assisted by an older part, usually Jamie. She is able to stay with them, but it tires her out pretty bad. I’m (Corey) not able to figure out the details yet, that kind of stuff is usually too much for me, but after a while different parts, including myself ask more questions or get help from Dr. M. to understand what had happened. Jamie knew though right after, so she must have been pretty close.
Nobody knows what she and Dr. M. talked about though right now. I figure she’s still resting. Usually, she’ll come out after we say something about her, which we’d done earlier in writing with Mal and Bon. But, she hasn’t been out yet this morning. It is very frustrating not to be able to remember.
We’re hoping that by Thursday, we’ll get the result of the memory test done back in December. Sure would be handy to know what is going on. I think somehow the parts line up with different ways we are able to remember something. Just have to be patient.
Nothing else so important this morning. Always a little dizzying trying to remember so hard. Leaves me feeling very spacey and confused. Have to remember this morning to take the pain pills to work with us. We’re a little cranky, because we have that staffing this morning. We’re not sure if Sr. will show or not, but figure if she does show she’ll be looking for problems. We will have to work pretty fast concerning finalizing the reports. REALLY don’t look forward to that. Yesterday though I had a catch-up day with having the Assistant making up some time we had lost. So that was very good. Definite progress being made. Yesterday, she did some important filing and thinned the files along with starting the preliminary work on another set of Qnotes. She got as far as calculating the 2nd half of the year (I had already done first half), then she entered data for the calendar portion of the notes. She really is becoming quite efficient. I love to pieces her and her being there to help. She’ll be back on Thursday.
I think today after the staffing we are going to need pinpointing exactly the files that we’ll show the person from the State. That will help give us some breathing space. As far as Qnotes completed … I have an idea we’re about half way through 10 of 20 clients. That’s making us feel better too. I’d say in another couple of months we’ll be all caught up. God Bless Assistants!
Well, better be getting to it then. Hope the best for us today and that we make it past 11 am. By then the tough morning and staffing will be completed! AND, it is nice because this is one of those nice mothers and our favorite State guy. Maybe he’ll have time to stay after to chat. That’s always been very nice
Ok, our best to all!!!
