6 months!

I forgot to mark the date with all the tropical activity that has been going on recently, but September 16th marked my 6 month anniversary of being 99% independent and (almost) living on my own! :)

I moved down here on a Tuesday, and the 16th was a Thursday. I had high hopes for this move and it has led up to my expectations. I have made a lot of very major accomplishments while living here, including:

* Not missing a medication dose for the past seven and a half months. <<< (Before this I missed as many as 10 doses per month :oops: ).
* Not getting yelled at any more for having a dirty apartment. (Seriously! That is how I earned my one bedroom. :D )
* Getting the job that I had at Sav-On - all by myself, with no help from anyone else. :) :D
* Meeting lots of new friends and neighbors (including some rather attractive female neighbors :oops: ).
* No more playing with water and flooding anything.
* No more obsessive compulsive behaviors.

I could go on and on but I have come a very long way in this past year and I wanted to tell everyone how proud of myself I am. :)

Independent living for me would be nice in one way and not possible in others. Oh well...

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback! It just makes living on my own all that much more worthwhile! :)

(And it also hels negate the fact that the internet on my computer has gone down for the 85578th time in the past 2 weeks :( )...

Great job, Joshua.

I apologize for "going off" above. We are in a similar situation, more or less.. but so opposite at the same time in terms like these.

Those "baby steps" can get you a long way.
