A New Journey

I have begun taking a new medication for depression . . . it is called Pristiq ~ i had never even heard of it until the doc prescribed it yesterday.  Today is my 2nd day on it.  I am feeling ok today . . . very scattered but it hasn't caused any harm.  I was able to get to the bank and put all but s bit of the money in the bank  ~  get some things at the grocery store that we needed (didn't really buy any extras) ~ and made cupcakes for Sammi's 3rd birthday today.  I have been on the computer far too much today (seems to be a nasty habit of mine) . . . but finding this site is really cool!  I am anxious (in a good way) to take my 11 year old son to meet his new therapist today.  He has bipolar and ADHD and has been doing 'alright' on his meds but i think he needs to talk some stuff out.  His explosive anger is getting out of hand (but then again ~ they learn what they see ~ and I get explosive when I get angry too!!)  
I also just started reading CAPTIVATING a great book about the heart of a woman and how God loves me and persues me . . . so that has helped me to focus on something bigger than myself and this little rut i seem to have gotten myself stuck in.  
In addition, I am "attempting" to keep track of what I eat (I weigh 225 pounds and am only 5 feet 3 inches tall) ~ I totally need to lose weight.  But, see, this is what I do . . . . I attempt to fix every area of my life all at once and then when i fail I wonder what happened ?!?!?!?!?!!?  DUH!!!!!!!!  Maybe someday that will sink in !!!  
For now, that's all!
