Prescription drug free is the way to be.

Healthcare providers are the worst patients, and I am as guilty as they come. I read too much, analyze too much, and stop my medicines abruptly. The result?

...NO FATIGUE, LETHARGY, OR HEADACHE...

Maybe I am studying to be a quack after all. At least quackery pays a decent salary. I am less than one month away from finishing my FNP which is scary, a little overwhelming, but mainly a relieving "been-a-long-time-coming" feeling. I am ready, I still need experience but I know enough to be safe and know when to ask for help.

Things are changing quickly in the Young household. Stephen graduated with a BA in English, and I am so proud of him. His reward? "Antennagate". Actually the IPhone is wicked cool and I am immensely jealous. He also got to fill his belly with brisket, potato salad, and cobbler (not to mention start looking for employment).

Conor is a talking, hilarious, adorable, wonderful, lovable, affectionate, choo-choo addicted fool. I am so lucky to play with him as much as I do. I get to see innocence and new discovery daily, and this makes me so motivated to grow, learn, and make myself the best MOM (yes, he finally calls me MOM) I can possibly be. I think I do my job well. Our next steps are potty-training (yikes), numbers (he knows one and two), and his SECOND BIRTHDAY!

I cannot wait to go for my first jog in months and get this mopey, headachey, feel pathetically sorry for myself body back in better shape (again).
