Catching Up

Wow, I havent written in so long that I feel like a blogging virgin all over again! You'll have to forgive me, but we've been without internet for awhile now and just got it back yesterday. I feel like Ive been living under a rock! Let me update you on the happenings of my extremely crazy life...

Jordan:
His Graves Disease is officially under control, although he is still have some cognitive memory issues. Its pretty pathetic when all of his teachers understand except for one! He thinks its a bunch of crap and that a child cannot have Graves Disease. My mom has explained very nicely in a great many choice words that the teacher can read my brothers 504 plan (a medical plan for school) from last year, but to no avail. I just cant believe what a jackass how rude this guy is being. THEN, the teacher had enough guff to call my brother STUPID in front of other students! Now that we know his hyper activity isnt the Graves Disease at work anymore my mom went ahead with with ADHD testing. Jordan tested on the highest end and has started medicine as of Wednesday. The doctor did tell him that his body will have to adjust to the ups and downs its going to feel, but two days in a row Jordans broken down in tears (once at the bowling alley and once in the classroom). I hate to see him that way, so hopefully his meds will be adjusted.

Mom:
Shes lost 65 amazing pounds! Im not sure that I can even imagine having the willpower to sacrifice so much to do such a thing. She truly is amazing though; she's cut back on her portions, only drinks water, and walks/jogs everyday (even when shes tired)! She doesnt even need to take her diabetes or blood pressure meds anymore! Shes always been my hero, but now for more reasons than the ones I could have originally listed.

ME:
Ive picked myself up off the floor successfully! In the past two months I have more than realized my self worth! I know now that I am an awesome person and only deserve the BEST! Jobs are looking pretty decent...Im currently subbing for the school district again and working at the bookstore as a keyholder. Plus I interviewed for a permanent position with the school district just today! Oh yeah, I cut all my hair off! I'll post some pics shortly...
