A week and a half...

I'm about a week and a half into my meds for my panic disorder. I think I may be feeling a bit better. Its a little hard to tell. The first week I was taking a "chill pill" along with the more long-term treatment. That seemed to be working ok, but this past Monday brought the end of the "quick fix" (ha! not so much) and the beginning of the slower-working med. It has been a long week though. Carl worked late Monday night, was called out Tuesday night, worked super late (think into the am) on Wednesday night and was called out again last night. I have spent about an hour with my hubby this week, which always makes me a bit sad and even a bit anxious. The good news, I have him all weekend! It is his last weekend off of the summer (well until after labor day) and I'm looking forward to making it a lazy one. I'm thinking long mornings, extensive breakfasts, lounging and lots of family time. His next two weeks will have hell-ish hours I'm sure, so I want to soak him up this weekend.

In other news, he is actively searching for a new job. He has updated his resume and is ready to start getting some applications out there. If anyone knows of any openings or has any connections they are willing to share, we are willing to take any help we can get!

Finally, school starts on Sept. 2nd. I just bought the books. Cross your fingers that this will be my second to last semester! This will definitely be my hardest yet! I am taking two in-person classes, one of which is another istc (which i'm sure will be filled with teachers). I also am hoping to take (and pass) comps this semester, so I will have to find some study-time for those as well. All of this while enjoying my favorite time of year :)
