Firstly, I have recently switched anxiety medications (again), and the results have been encouraging. My anxiety is much more well-controlled (though I have still not fully returned to my former glory), and the side effects are far fewer (no more insomnia and blurry vision). I am also on lower doses and fewer medications. There IS a light at the end of the tunnel, which is hopefully a symmetrical tunnel, because I have a little bit more OCD than I used to.
Secondly, you know that someone knows you well when they pre-wash your child's gift with antibacterial soap AND inform you of it on a whimsical post-it note. Also, the use of the word "proclivity" on said whimsical post-it note is also enchanting. Add a string of bunny lights for Q's reading nook and a pun-filled, introvert-themed bumper sticker for me, and you've got yourself an awesome care package.
Thirdly, you know what is nice about not being pregnant? Pretty much everything. I want to say that with sensitivity to those who struggle with infertility, but the knowledge that miscalculating your carbs could harm your unborn baby is a pretty heavy weight to bear for 9 months--besides, you know, ACTUALLY bearing a pretty heavy weight. On a side note, I am 100 pounds lighter than I was at the end of my pregnancy with Q. I do not miss that. I had a pregnancy scare this month, and never have I been so happy to scoop the cat litter box as I was yesterday.

And lastly, but certainly not leastly, Facebook kindly informed me today that it is my brother's and husband's birthdays today and that I should wish them well. [sarcasm]Thank goodness Facebook reminded me![/sarcasm] But in all seriously to two of the most wonderful men in my life, thank you for sharing a birthday so that I have one less to remember.
