Default OT: Turtle pic and update

Hey all,

I am so tired, Jackie got up at 3am again. Getting so tired of getting up so early, get to go back to bed around 5am to 8:45 am so I did get some good solid sleep, just two blocks of it.

So here is the beloved Mr. Turtle:


He's really a cool pet, self-contained and happy. I have found my spirits are really uplifted by his presence. I finally finished chapter one on the new book, and am back to writing so hopefully things will continue to be good.

I can see some of you are going through some rough times, I really feel for you all. I am having a lot of anxiety these days. Doing good though for the most part. I just had to check in and let you know things are going better, wish us luck with a new medication for Jackie, his pediatrician mentioned to me existing dx's of ADHD and OCD. And I got one from the newer specialist I am taking him to of ODD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

So we'll be trying a new medication soon, I pray it helps him because he CAN do well, he's just got to be able to focus. I have seen him focus on the computer now for two hours. He's able to do it when he wants to. So we've set up another system, still need a few things, like a networking cable and a table to set it up on. But it's working and ready for him. We're looking at getting a new monitor too. Jackie is doing better at home and having a harder time in school, we're not sure why.

But at least things are better at home. I am thinking of you all and hoping things go well with you and yours. Talk to you again soon.
