Updating.....

I haven't mentioned Mr Man in a while.  Guess that's because he's been "good" lately.  Since getting the Rx in his system he's actually calmer.....doesn't "pick" at his fingers and actually sleeps at night unless there is a MAJOR issue.

He was eligible for his driver's license on May 11th, but we were in Myrtle Beach so he waited until May 17th.....he failed the driving test because our big ass truck couldn't make a 3 point turn.  So he had to wait a week before taking it again....this time he took my little Nissan LOL!!!!

I told him he had to decide what he wanted most......to drive... or to drink..........he couldn't do both.  The next time he is caught DUI it's jail time and loss of license forever.  I don't know that I will even want to go through that again....he may just as well keep on going.

It has been 30 days now that he's been on the Prozac.  At first I wasn't sure it was going to do him any good.  But as with all meds, it eased in and seems OK.  He will still take Actos for controlling blood sugar, and his blood pressure meds.  Doc wants to keep an eye on his liver fluctuations.

Tom is back to being Mr Mom....school & dance duty.  Pool boy, head chef and funny man.  I hope he remains on track.  Now that the weather is warm enough for dips in the pool I think he'll have his hands full.  Miss T will surely be in it daily from here till September/October.

Do you know how hard it is to walk out my back door to go to work every morning while gazing at that pool knowing that when they get up they will be in it and I won't???????????

wow everyone sounds so busy, lots going on. I hope the meds work and everything is ok. It has to be hard to see the pool and not go in in.

Glad Mr. Man has turned the bend and yep, I know how hard it is to walk past a pool everyday when the sun is shining.  That's why mine isn't open yet...lol.  HUGS  Chris

Glad things are going well with him. When things goes well with him then they are going well for you. Have a nice day. That pool will still be there when you come home from work. Helen

Going to work and looking at that pool would be very hard.  I'm so glad your husband is doing well with the prozac.  Nicci seems to be doing better with prozac also.
