I found out that I can do my clinical practice over the summer instead of during the regular school year so that’s awesome. That means I won’t have to quit my job. I also found out though that I did fail the one class I never withdrew from. So my GPA is a sad 2.92. I will get it up though. And for a masters the GPA doesn’t matter as much because I’ll never go for my doctorate so I don’t have to impress anyone. Jobs won’t care about my master’s gpa. Just that I have a master’s.

I woke up this morning thinking this was all a huge mistake but now I’m back to being excited. I hope it isn’t s mistake.

In other news I am hottibly upset about my weight. I’ve been eating terribly and gained ten pounds in the six weeks since I left work. Part of it was because I couldn’t stand up long enough to cook and fast food isn’t healthy but most of it was eating for comfort. I’m trying desperately to reel it in but I just get so hungry at night. I don’t think it’s my meds, I’ve been on them for a year and haven’t had a problem. Now my birth control definitely makes me snacky in the third week but usually I can overcome that. Now I just can’t. I’ve done well today despite having fast food for both lunch and dinner - I made better choices so my calorie intake wasn’t too high. I hope I can keep it together tonight and limit my snack to one bowl of cereal.

In other other news I am nearly one year hospital free. I’m so happy. I’m so glad I’ve been mostly stable. Just a couple of blips over the summer that were situational and then winter that were seasonal. No hypomania. Which I kind of miss but it leads to bad things so that’s actually good.

Next week is my son’s spring break so he will be home with me all week. I am planning on taking him to my grandmother’s house and to the park. RS is also going to take a day off and we are going to go down to the indoor water park. It will be fun I’m sure.
