The new company took over on April 1. It's been a non-stop paperfest and I find myself feeling overwhelmed most of the time, but I figure it is just the learning curve and sooner or later the new reporting will not be new anymore and things will settle down.
Shelby was eligible to leave her mandated drug rehab on April 2 but she has chosen to stay. I have to say I am overjoyed with this decision. She seems to be taking sobriety seriously this time and is planning on staying in the rehab at least another month. I have to mention that she has recently been diagnosed as a borderline personality. This has made me both relieved and even more concerned. I am relieved in that now I understand who she is. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a person must exhibit at least 5 of 7 behaviors to carry the diagnosis. Shelby exhibits 7 of 7.
Now there is a name to what we know as our life. Now there is a reason for her out of control behavior. Nevermind the underlying contributors to the disorder, we have a name and therefore we can form a plan of attack.
