I'm doing pretty good. I've been reading a lot lately and making 2-3 trips to the library each week as a result. It is so nice being able to read again. Books and reading were part of my identity for so long, but then I went years without being able to concentrate and read a single book. I think I'm trying to catch up on all the reading I missed! It's been especially nice because I've been reading mysteries, and we've had a lot of rain and stormy weather to go right along with the mood of the book I'm reading.

My daughter finished her schooling yesterday. She goes to online school and procrastinated quite a bit on her end-of-course projects, but she got it all done in time, which is a relief. She's very smart and finished the school year with 100s and 99s in all her courses for 10th grade. I can't believe I have a high school junior now. Her goal this summer is to get her driver's license which I'm a bit anxious about. Riding with a teen just learning to drive sets my panic and anxiety into super high gear. It makes me wish I were still on clonazepam, but my pdoc had me taper it off over 2 years ago. I wish my husband could take her practice driving more often since he's a much better driver than I am and a lot less anxious than I am with my daughter between the wheel, but he's teaching a summer course at the university and is busy with that now.
