Thinking. in Since OD is shutting down....

I just got a call and counseling is now Wednesday at 11. I am writing it in here because it’s easier to remember. Daughter is at school. She slept about 11 hours and I’m glad because I don’t want to worry about her being tired. I got back from dropping her off and my Dad was sitting at my house in his car. I asked him to come in and made breakfast. They were able to get the no contact order dropped and have documentation so he was able to go home. I was really worried that he was going to be here the whole day and I’m super thankful that didn’t happen.

I have a couple of appointments next month and they are on days where there isn’t school so I’m a bit stressed. My Mom of course said she’d watch her but we know how that goes. I think I’ll ask her again about a week before and just tell her that if she isn’t going to watch her to just tell me so that I can either try and find someone else or reschedule because otherwise I would get double booked and then that means I could sit there all day and maybe still not get seen.

Never having a baby sitter has been unbelievably stressful. I also have gotten a letter saying I’m to do jury duty in November. There’s no school for a few days in November and then again, I have the concern with no sitter. I have sent back my paperwork and a letter from my Dr. because of my health concerns so I’m hoping that I’ll hear from them and they’ll tell me that I’m off the hook and to not worry about it. I really hope to God that happens because I’m terribly concerned that if I have to serve, I won’t have someone to watch my kid and then I’m going to end up in deep shit. It even says in the letter that just because you have small children at home, it’s not enough to excuse you.
