Long Day

Today was a long work day. Didn't take lunch and stayed till 6:30 trying to get ahead. In addition to that I brought work home and spent another two hours putting some things in order.

My boss wants to show me how to use the computer to help me be more efficient. I can't get him to understand that it takes me longer to input info than to keep notes on what I need to do. I know how my brain works and when it comes to computers and being put on the spot I go brain dead. It is kind of like I don't have enough "memory" to switch from one thing to the next. However I will try to learn what he shows me and hope for the best.

Time to get to bed. Hope Debby is feeling better soon. I am sorry that Mikey has to spend some time in jail but the rehab part will be beneficial for him and his family. Besides, during this time you can relax a bit and know where he is and that he is safe. The hard part comes when they come home into the real world and have to make it in a day to day environment. I always tried to make the most of the time that my husband was in treatment including taking part in any family programs that were available. Al anon also helped me a lot to understand the dynamics of what was going on. It gave me valuable tools to learn to live with this disease.
