My family did Xmas last weekend because E had to be with his Mom this weekend. But Dad held back a present for me and so we exchanged gifts a few gifts yesterday.

He gave me the soundtrack to Rocky and Rocky 2. With a slip of paper with the lyrics typed on it and I didn't get it at first.

Then he told me that for  so long with my struggles with bipolar disorder and ADD I've been like the baby bird trying to be strong enough to fly out of the nest  (this was something that a therapist used to explain it) and at times I thought I was ready but I wasn't and now I am. Getting ready to move to Vermont and take that big step.

And so he thought of this as being my theme song.

The lyrics are:

Trying hard now
it's so hard now
trying hard now

Getting stronger
it won't be longer
getting strong now

Gonna Fly now
flying high now
gonna fly, fly fly


I can't even explain how good this makes me feel and knowing his proud of me -- I knew he was -- but this is just really awesome .
