Two more Days

I can do two more days.  Not like I have a choice.  Lee and the kids are already thinking of all the fun they are going to have with out me.  AT work today several of my co-workers commented they have never been on a vacation without their spouse.  They think Lee and I are so weird that we take vacations without each other and with out the kids.  I guess it is just how I grew up and it was one of the things I Incorporated into my life when I became an adult.  Besides I was taking weekend trips to Seattle long before I met and married Lee so it would be strange if they stopped. 

I am really frustrated with things right now so I think a break will be good.

The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher
