Living in California we don't get many rainy days. Even though it is winter time it has been sunny, sunny, sunny; which stinks cuz our mountains have had no snow.
Staying at home with a 2 1/2 year old requires great inventions on a rainy day. Some of these include; jumping from couch cushion to couch cushion pretending they are lily pads, building with different sets of blocks and train sets, and even downloading different games for our wii. I have to invent some physical activities to replace the usual park play he gets, so he'll go down for his nap (that way I can take my nap too).
I am taking my RVT exam on saturday so I've been studying like crazy. Thank goodness my mom is watching my son for me tomorrow night until thursday afternoon; that way I can cram like the old days, pre-child.
It's weird to think that in a couple months our lives are going to change drastically. I will convert from a stay at home mom to a part-time vet technician. My son will start daycare and learn some vital social skills. The best part of the transition is my husband will have to start taking over some house duties. I can't say he does nothing at the current moment, but I do the majority.
I'm excited for the change, but am nervous as well. Change is hard for me. I'll just take it one day at a time!
It is generally believed that many of those with bipolar disorder also struggle with alcoholism or substance abuse. Researchers, as well as many of those caught in the cycle of addiction, believe the use of these substances is an attempt to alleviate symptoms or to "self-medicate."
