Too Good to Be True!?!?

Well, we thought we had him! Jason was successfully potty-trained this past January, at only 19 months of age! We have all been so proud of him. He picked up on the idea very quickly and was completely dry, night and day, with only very occasional accidents. That was until this past week...! Now he just can't seem to remember what he's supposed to be doing, and most importantly, where he's supposed to be doing it!

I'm still very glad that he can stay dry all day, and he's very good about telling us when he needs to go. He usually waits until the very last moment, however, to let us know, so unless we jump right up and help him we sometimes have a little mess to clean up. The most frustrating part is that Jason was staying dry during both naps and all all night. Now I've had to put him back in diapers. Why the regression? It is, like I just said, very frustrating. Oh well.

Eric's had a busy couple of weeks. A lot of meetings, and some flying. He was gone the first part of last week to Timika, and this week he's planning to be in Wamena for a few nights. Someone needs to cover Manokwari for a few weeks the first part of May, so we'll probably take the whole family up there and enjoy a little mini-vacation.

I've been extremely busy this past week finalizing the book order for the library at the international school. I've been working on this particular order since late November of last year. There's been one problem after another with getting the school credit card to work, and we thought we had it fixed, but I just got a phone call from the head librarian a few moments ago to say that Amazon sent several emails saying our credit card was denied. Ugh! This is extremely frustrating for all of us. Our book order is already several months late, and now to be having all these problems...

I still don't have much energy. You'd think that doubling my thyroid meds would help, but it didn't. So I'm going to contact both doctors and get their opinions about stopping that medication. It just doesn't seem to be doing anything, so why keep taking it? Seems like I'm dealing with chronic fatigue, however. The best way to deal with it is by making changes to my diet, and while it's great to not have to take medicine, it's hard to take an already very limited diet and cut it down even further! I just wish I could wake up tomorrow morning and feel healthy and full of energy...it's been months if not longer since I really felt 100% well.

Stay tuned...
