Sometimes It Sneaks Up So Fast the Silence is Deafing....

Oh what a week it has been. On Monday Rev went to Grandy, NC, to see about getting some custody arrangements so he can see his son on a regular basis. Before this, the child's mother would get mad and then she would withhold Jayden until she needed a sitter, then she would let him see him again. After the last time she did this, Rev decided that he was getting a formal custody agreement. Well, I guess she was upset about getting a formal custody arrangement that she then decided to take him in for child support. Now, anyone who knows me, knows I am a fierce believer in hauling someone down to DCSE IF they are not helping out financially. In Rev's case, he was. She was getting 250 a month from him and any extra if she happened to come up short in the course of the month. This heffa had the nerve to ask for child support ALL the way back from the time Jayden was born. I'm going to need her to stop smoking crack rocks. First of all Jayden's first year of life, he lived with Terrance, her included. All of the second year she was getting her 250. So what is it she wanted back???? To sum it all up the mediator did order Rev to back a back amount of $2,000(to be paid in 50 dollar increments that would be added to his child support each month) and he would have to pay 300 dollars a month in regular support. So basically 50 dollars more a month than he was paying before. This has put a SERIOUS wrench in our plans to move out so, you know I am on grind mode. God is good. He is always on time. On Tuesday morning I applied for a job at Farm Fresh, Tuesday afternoon, I got at call for an interview. Yesterday I went to my interview and got hired on the spot. I will be working Mon, Wed, Fri and on Saturdays and Sundays after 2pm. I like this arrangement because I can still participated in the choir and go to chu'ch. Plus, I worked for Farm Fresh 10 years ago so I am kinda familiar with the process. Rev had an interview at Dillard's, they are going to let him know something on Monday. He has also decided to go back to playing for his home church. When God blesses...he blesses. Now Rev and I can rest easy. Lynette has done her worst. There is nothing else she can do. And I end up laughing on that one. The only other thing she could do is show up to my wedding, but I believe Rev's family wouldn't let her make to the parking lot in one piece.
Due to all this anxiety that has infiltrated my life, I have began taking Xanax. I knew this was not going to be a good look when I googled it, and 90 percent of the sites were about how to get off the stuff. I also saw it on the list of drugs on that commercial that they run during Intervention(how I love that show!) Well, it helps with the anxiety, but the side effects leave something to be desired. It makes me damn near comatose. Two days ago, I left Miss Beasley in my Mom's room to watch Rataouille (yeah the bootleg) and I just laid down in my bed to watch Law and Order next thing I know it's 8pm and my mom is trying to wake me up. I cannot take this medicine and parent at the same time. I will be giving the doctor a call on Monday. Be Blessed!

3 Speakin' on It:

Okay. Pharmacist say (sorry, I felt a little like Confucius there) that if you're comatose from Xanax, then your dosage is TOO HIGH. Lowest dose is 0.25 mg at bedtime... try that :)

The doctor prescribed .50 mg, so I have started cutting them in half. Got my pill cutter from Walgreens today! Thanks for the advice, I was hoping you would read it!
