This past week was spent basically going to a million different appointments. I was purposefully vague earlier in the week when I posted on Facebook. Well I will be a little more open here.
Last Saturday and then again on Monday, amara tried to run away from home. You may recall that she has tried this before. So we had a lot o talk about on Tuesday with her counselor, and Thursday with her psychiatrist. We are (again) hanging her meds around to try and help things out. We are installing door chimes and the girls will both be getting kid type cell phones. Mainly for GPS purposes, but we are hoping it will help with some of the outbursts, and meltdowns if they have a way to reach us at all times. We will see how it goes!
Amara was supposed to do academic and cognitive testing on Wednesday. Well that didn't turn out as planned. The doctor only did an evaluation to find out exactly hat testing to o. :/ so now, father waiing 3 nths for the appointment, we have to wait until May 1st for the actual testing. This normally wouldn't be a problem except that we re trying to get her on the Exceptional Family Member Program (efmp) with the miltary. This program will make sure that e only move to an area that has the health services she needs. And this takes months to do. Ugh! It's all just too frustrating!
On top of that, Wednesday I hurt my arm. Okay so nothing too new with me hurting myself, but I isn't deserve this! I reached for my purse, and while reaching (not holding, touching or overextending anything) my elbow just went. And I mean WENT! I couldn't move my arm without pain. Bad enough that iactully went to the doctor (and if you know me, that's a big deal!). I ended up in a sling with pain meds. Hoping it's better on, because this one arm thing is lame!
Jon made it to Greece. He had a lot of fun there and we got to talk on the phone for the low low price of $50 for 19 minutes! (sarcasm) but at least we got to talk. :) He is lucky to have one good friends on this cruise with him. He tried to usehisbank card to itch drawl money at the ATM, only to have it ten by said ATM. And to make it better, that was the only card he had on him (no credit cards or anything else). So now I have to get him a new card nd send it along. But fortunately, his friends paid for his stuff in exchange for using his phone and the promise of being paid back.
We had fun with wonderful friends Thursday night and the kids did an Easter egg hunt. It was nice to hang out and enjoy each others' company after our crazy week. I still haven't found anyone to do my oath to renew my drivers license. But I'm working on it. So, that's a week in our lives! Crazy busy, lots of stress, but some good things in the mix.
Love to all, Mya
