There's so much going on in our lives right now, I'm not even sure where to start.  I guess I'll try and put it in a nutshell, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I was just diagnosed with a viral infection that's kicking my butt to the curb.  I missed class again this morning, and I'm already behind in school.  I can't afford to be sick right now ... aside from just being plain miserable and I don't like being sick!  Headache, fatigue, killer sore throat, coughing - you name it, I've probably got it.

The doctor just changed my depression meds again.  the one I'd been taking for 4 years wasn't working as well any more, so I got changed to a new one.  Not only did it not work, but it made my insomnia worse.  I just got started on a third med for the depression along with a sleeping pill.  I wish they could just find something that worked already instead of feeling like a guinea pig.

As I mentioned, I am having a really hard time in school this semester - just being able to get my act together.  I'm not working and money is super tight ... but then I'm stuck between wanting to work, and wondering how we're going to get the kids to their appointments during the day if I'm working. We're having major issues with my 12 year old and his ODD, to the point where we've almost called the police a few times because of his behavior.

I think I'll stop there ... I'm sorry this went on as long as it did already.

I hope they find some medicine that works for you soon. My father went through the "guinea pig" bit with high blood pressure medicines too often. It was always hard on him.
