Nine days? Really?!

Nine days?! It says I haven't posted an entry in nine days; gosh, I would have sworn I'd written more recently than that. I'm thinkin' *entry kidnapped by aliens*...

Things here are... okay.

On the up-side, it's been a couple of weeks since we switched to splitting Shoe's Str@ttera dose between morning and evening and, knock on wood, I think it may finally be doing its thing. And, lest I seem unappreciative, I will admit that is a pretty phenomenal up.

On the poopy side, school is sucking in a big, BIG way. It's not the kids and teaching part; it's the politics and power-grab part. The rumor mill is in serious overdrive and several staff members are sure to strain some vital finger muscles with all of their finger-pointing.

I have very clear opinions about who is in the wrong, but as far as what I'm putting out for others to see, I am Switzerland. Honestly, I do not know where these people find the energy to be so bitchy. I just don't have it in me.

On an entirely separate issue, I need to get serious about being healthier. I'm not happy in my skin right now and I don't like the way it feels. I've gained back more than half of the weight I'd lost a few years ago even though I swore I'd never let it happen. I need to make better food choices. I need to get back to making time to get some exercise. I need to quit making plans and start executing them.
