indigos journal

just to let people know that we have FINALLY added new stuff to our Flickr.

maybe this is a sign that we are coming out of the winter blaws?  cause we haven’t been able to cope with Flickr since november.

hmmm….

we are really liking this twitter thing.  it lets us check in with people without the pressure of writing a whole journal entry.  and we get to keep up with our friends too!  (if you want to follow us on twitter, our handle is “wolfdyke”)

we do miss writing in our journal, though.  maybe, just maybe, the programming keeping us from writing is easing up.  it would have to be, or we wouldn’t be writing now.

i think the work with the autistics in therapy is really helping.  and i love that we are learning more about the internal geography.  just a little more, but every bit helps.

i think we are not needing the seroquel anymore.  at least not right now.  we don’t have the type of craziness inside that the seroquel calms.  so when we take it, all it does is sedate us and make it really hard for us to get up the next day. we tried just cutting back, but it is still too sedating.  so we are mostly not taking it.

we haven’t even had to take our ativan much lately.  i think adding the klonopin as a regular thing has helped make our general state much less anxious.  yay!  i think the other thing that has helped decrease the anxiety is working with the autistics.  the more they work with kathy in therapy, the less anxious they are.  they don’t feel so alone, at least for that time each week.

some things we’ve learned re: the autistics

• there are six of them
• they live in a cold, wet, dark cave. the only entrance/exit is a sheer drop down the mountain.  (the cave is near the top of the mountain)
• the view out of the cave is of the wastelands and the enforcers tower way off in the distance
• they don’t have any blankets or any other belongings.  not even clothes.
• they are now communicating that they are lonely and want to come live in the valley.  (we have no way to get them here, and we’ve never made such a structural change before.  when talking about the possibility, chaos ensued)
• they have always lived here, since the head programmer guy created them.

that is all we can think of.

must get ready to leave for therapy.

happy to be writing again.
