In Silence...

We took the boys out to the mall yesterday & lat them play at "Tilt" it is a video game play room. We gave them $5 each & they had a blast, then we took them out to eat, so it was a good family day out. They only have a few more weeks before school starts back up so we want to do as much with them as we can.

We are wanting to take them to "Warriors State Park" & let them go swimming & just enjoy the beauty of the park. We also want to take them & see either "Space Monkeys", or "Journey To The Center Of The Earth" we will leave it up to them to which one we will see.

Amy got another raise at her job so she has had a .58 cent raise since she started working last September. She really likes her job which is really important to me, I would hate for her to work somewhere she couldn't stand, I had a few jobs like that & it sucks.

We are doing pretty good this year, knock on wood, this year we will be making the most we have made in the 10 years we have been married. Between my check & what Amy makes we are doing alright, there for a little while when I first applied for my disability we was hurting for money. We was living off of something less than $700 a month & that included paying bills & getting groceries.

Jaydon our youngest one was a new born, don't ask me how we made it because I don't know. Well I know how we made it through some of the rough times, my mom helped us out. If it wasn't for her I really don't know what we would have done.

She helped us more than once with paying rent, or lights, ect. so I really have to say a big thanks to my mom. I know there is no way I can ever repay her for what she did.

I am not going to say how much we make now, but it is a lot better than a little over $600 a month. I say this knocking on wood, with Amy's hard work & my check we are really thankful for what we have now.

We need to start paying off some of our credit cards because Christmas is come up fast & we need to start doing some shopping before to much longer. We was at a store yesterday that sells old time collectibles & I say a few things I want to get Amy for Christmas this year. You know that we usually don't buy each other anything because we spend all the money on the boys. Well this year I am determine to get her something.

I am doing alright, I am taking my medicines like I am suppose to, well all in all I am, I may miss a dose here & there every now & then. I have thought of something, I can't burn myself or I will be put back into the hospital & Amy said she doesn't know if she can me being away again. So I figure I can use at least a rubber band, wear it around my wrist & if or I guess I should say when I feel that way I can flick the rubber band. That way I can get the satisfaction of the pain but without the permanent scaring.

I don't care about the scaring though, I couldn't care less about the scaring but I don't like being admitted to the hospital. Also Amy has said she wont allow the boys to see me doing it to myself so I can't afford to do it & take the chance of losing Amy & the boys. I go on July 31st & see my pdoc, & tdoc, & my caseworker will be there also so I better be on my best behavior. 

Trystan is doing good I guess, he is taking his medicines like he should & he goes & sees his pdoc this coming week. I hate he has gotten the bipolar from me but I am glad they caught it while he was still young. I hope this way he wont have to suffer in silence like I did for all those years. I hope he will know he can tell me & his mom anything & we will do everything we can to help him.
