PT TEST

I can only say thank the Lord for Michael has passed his PT test. I am so proud of him. He has been having a hard time trying to pass this test and it seems like every time he attempts to pass it something happens. Like last time he threw-up right in the middle of it and had to stop. You know what even this time he had something wrong. His foot is bothering him and he is going to the Doctor about it tomorrow. He refused to go until after he passed this test. So thank fully he passed and now he can get his foot taken care of. He is so hard headed, but I love him.

I was also able to mail three boxes today to him. Well one is actually for Sgt. Kinney and one is for him to pass out the stuff that is in it but the one box is from me and the kids for Christmas. I still have one more box to mail but I am going to wait until after the 15th. I have to make a trip down to KY this weekend for the FRG Holiday party and am worried about money. So next paycheck I will mail it. The kids are doing fine. Gabriel thankfully has not had any problems with school and has remained health except for a cold. Lydia is doing well talking more and more everyday and between her and Gabriel I am unable to get in a word otherwise. Michael is not going to know what to think when he comes home for R&R.

My school is going well. I passed my last class with an A and am enjoying this class more than I thought I would. It is pharmacology. Which isn't so bad except for all of the abbreviations I have to learn and at least the 50 most common prescription drugs prescribed at a Doctors office. The only problem with this is every drug has more than one name. There is the generic name and the Trade name. If anyone is wondering always try and get the generic name because the Trade name cost more but there is no difference between them. Like people who shop for clothes at Wal-mart or Good will compared to say Macy's or another expensive store. You are just buying the name. So always ask the Doctor if he can prescribe the generic drug instead. It will always save you some money. There is no difference between the potency of the drug. They have to have the same strength. See the generic drug is the drug's real name. The one it was developed with. While the trade name one more commonly used is the brand or propriety name. I hope this info helps someone out there. Well I need to go Gabriel's almost home from school and I need to get Lulu up from nap. Write more later. BYE!
