A mid month update

It's Sunday and I am in my office. Working on the weekend is not my favorite thing. I don't mind from time to time, but now that I don't feel so anxious all the time, I've been enjoying the down time on my weekends a lot more than I used to. Anyway, a client had an emergency and the partner I work for has a personal obligation until early evening (although I would have been the one working on it anyway) - so, here I am in my office...blogging. No, don't worry - I'm not blogging on the clients time, I'm just doing a pre-work brain dump hoping to clear out enough space in my head to figure this problem out. What kind of emergency could a client have on a weekend you wonder? I can't tell you, but let's just say that I am giving up my Sunday (and a beautiful one it is) because someone forgot to lock the car and/or shut the garage door.

Anyway - I just read some one's blog that I read regularly and am just livid in my head over what happened when she sent her son away to camp. I might not even be able to concentrate it has pissed me off so bad. I'm trying to think of reasons she can sue the camp so at the very least, she could send a threatening and credible letter.

Otherwise - things are good. I decided to stop taking the Lunesta because I was feeling really tired all the time and lethargic, unmotivated, and like the drug was never making it out of my system completely. Plus, I had read that sleeping medication can sometimes lessen the effectiveness of things like Lexapro. I actually have slept okay the past two nights - so maybe my body can now regulate this sleep problem on its own. I've never been a great sleeper anyway, so what am I expecting? I am happy to report that I feel better not taking it. I actually feel more motivated and a lot less blah. My psychiatrist might prefer me to sleep more, but that's okay - I think I have to go with how I feel on this one.

I guess I have nothing else to report. I thought I had so much to say, but I guess I don't. The weather is beautiful so hopefully I can get out of my office and take a walk at some point this afternoon. Also - as of yesterday, I have been sober for 19 months. Good for me. Oh, but the toaster is perpetually unplugged these days.
