So Blessed

I've come to realise that my Depression doesn't sneak up on me for no reason, but it seems to be one little thing, that on it's own seems inconsequential, being followed by, what seems to be another little glitch, which normally I'd just brush off, being joined by yet another, until hey presto, I'm spiraling down. Anyway, that's how it's been these last few days, hence no updates. I just couldn't find anything positive to say about Jarvis days, when in fact, all I needed to do, was make a few minor adjustments. The first was to make the time to go to the Doctors and get some more medication and not keep putting it off and the second, was to slow down and enjoy my family.

So it was that today things started to change and I made myself take things more easily, take deep breaths and sit down and play with my two gorgeous boys. It worked too, as after I picked Jarvis up from his school holiday programme, that he attends Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, we played for ages and there were no tantrums or fights over trying to get him to eat his dinner. It seems that most of the difficulties I have, all stem from me trying to do too much. I'm sure Adrienne wouldn't give a stuff if she came home very night and found the house a mess, she just wants a happy Dah and Boys.

So yeah, I don't remember too much of the last few days, so we won't go there, but I have posted a couple of pictures of my beautiful whanau, as I just found them, in my single bed, all fast asleep. They are so beautiful and I'm so lucky.

Oh, and a MASSIVE thank you our Country Cousins for Jarvie's wonderful birthday presents. He thinks that they just rock, so thank you very, very mucj.

Right, that's enough of me moaning. Back to normal tomorrow, with some more pictures and lots and lots of positive stuff - See you then :o)

House Dad.
