Life goes on, oh blah dee blah da

Alex goes to her first formal this weekend. I'll get pictures. She's doing well in school, as always. She and Kael got back together. Weird, but that pleases me. I didn't realize how much I liked that boy until she dropped him. They're two peas in a pod, although she thinks she's a cleaner, tidier pea. Hate to break it to her but EH! Wrong!

John is John. Always the same I suppose. He's still doing the whole school thing but his study habits haven't changed and thus almost 9 months into it he's still pulling C's and D's. I don't imagine he's going to get funding for next year. He's dropped about 60 lbs! At his heaviest he was weighing in at about 480lbs and in the last couple of years his weight has been coming off. Now that he's taking medication for his diabetes, blood pressure and cholesterol he seems to be doing better. I may actually talk to the doc about getting on the same cholesterol medication. Wow, 34 years old talking about cholesterol medication.

I'm fine. My life revolves around work (4 ten hour shifts, nights) and household duties. I don't really do anything else. Pay bills, grocery shop, parent, wife. Yup that's me. I'm probably depressed, I dunno. I don't really care at this point, I'm just tired.

Skyler is hurting and I'm wondering if we're being inhumane. I'm not ready to give up yet and if we can keep him comfortable with medication then so be it. I may ask the vet to up his medication to keep him more sedated. Since it's his shoulder that's bugging him, he needs to stay off it. Poor guy. It hurts my heart because we can't even pick him up or carrying him or snuggle with him because of where he is hurting. I can tell he's getting lonely, always having to be in his kennel right now. But he's supposed to stay as inactive as possible.

That's enough for now.
