I don't love change. My psychiatrist actually told me once, "you don't do change well." Nice. Thanks Dr. Daw. I know. Well, there's lots of change around here. Jared is headed towards nursing school next Spring. Then, we're talking about moving to Nashville after he finishes nursing school. And, ahem, I'm off of my birth control and lexapro. It feels quite strange to mention this on a public forum, but I share all kinds of important things and this is important. What's really important is that I feel totally weird. I have been irritable beyond belief and Jared has encouraged me to scream in the car as needed. Totally helps. Thanks husband. I have been starting little arguments, trying to win and prove points with Jared. I'm not usually like that. I try to abide by the principle that I would rather be happy than right. Lately, I like to be right. I have also been close to tears in several counseling sessions. Something will just move me to tears or bring on some anxiety and I get the feeling of tears in my face. No crying yet in session, but tomorrow is a new day. My body feels totally crazy like weight is just shifting around on its own with no permission from me. I'm lethargic a lot and have trouble making it through the typical walk. Coming off medication after this long is difficult! Obviously the goal is to get pregnant sometime in the near future. I mentioned to my mom yesterday that it hasn't been too bad coming off of the medication, but then I realized that Jared should be the one to answer that question. Thank goodness for the safety of marriage vows.

Fundraisers have gotten smart around Gardendale. We just bought a chic-fil-a coupon book from a neighborhood kid this afternoon. Way to go, fundraisers! I don't mind buying something that we actually like and will use. In other food news, my refrigerator is filled with wonderful things right now...red tomatoes, corn on the cob, sweet peppers, goat cheese, asparagus, watermelon. You get the idea. Summer food is here. We just had smitten kitchen goat cheese, asparagus, lemon pasta for dinner. Delicious.

That is all for now. Cheers.
