For the past three days I've been in sedative hell. Genodon is not a drug I'm compatible with. After three days of trying to stick it out, I'm done. I've missed enough work to completely deplete my banks and I'm now going into straight pay I'll be missing. My doc asked that I hold out until Friday or Monday but this was too much. I just spoke to ( Read more... )

Come to find out... this is my fault for not reading instructions. One at 6pm and the other at bedtime. Who'd have known? The instructions were written on one prescrip., but not the other. Oops. And the higher dosage is supposed to ceate less drowsiness, which I fully believe since I've experienced it with other medications. So the battle marches ( Read more... )

 My meds were adjuted yesterday and it's been interesting. Geodon has me sleep walking. I'm extreemly drowsy... to the point I came home early yesterday and didn't even make it in to work today. This is what it's like... nothing out of the ordinary, just medication regulation. And I'm bummed because I had an adorable new swater to wear to work. Oh ( Read more... )

I'm tired. Physically exhausted. Last weekend I didn't rest at all and have been getting 6 hours of sleep each night this week. I'm still working out too. SO... this is one tired MaMa. I don't have a damn thing to do this weekend, except sleep. THANK GOODNESS!

The mall shooting in Omaha has me twitchy. The past two days I've had to do errands at the ( Read more... )

I've been going non-stop today... lovely work, and I'm going cross-eyed. Each day gets busier and busier as the geezer games get closer. We've got a good (large) team in place this year and I'm excited, for a change.

This weekend was BUSY! Saturday we cleaned the house so we could set up the tree and all the other boxes of Christmas decorations. It ( Read more... )

I'm grateful time is whizzing by right now. The racing thoughts are back, and I'm putting them to good use. I've done a LOT of thinking the past couple weeks and I've mentally overcome some major barriers. I'm not ashamed anymore. I'm not sitting on my hands wondering "why me? why this?". I know what's happening, why it is, and what I need (thank ( Read more... )

I am stuffed sick. We had a great Thanksgiving... and then Friday night the stomach issues started. Saturday was a blur, and yesterday wasn't exactly fun. I got up on time this morning, showered, and realized my stomach wasn't going ANYWHERE today. So here I am, home again. Not the plesant mini-break extension most would prefer, but it is what it ( Read more... )

Well... I'm home today. For the past three to four weeks, I've been out sick once a week or every other week with Alicia. We should have got a flu shot this year. She is getting hit with every minute bug that's going around. This is her second or third cold in two months. She's not running a fever, and she's acting normal... but the runny nose, ( Read more... )

It's been a minute. Things have been busy, insanely busy. Work's picking up, yet again, and I'm not disliking it... I'm just trying to stay ahead. Home life is good. Alicia's sick again and I feel for her. Every bug that's come our way has hit her hard. We saw the Dr. yesterday and she has pink-eye, so drops it is. This medicine has been the ( Read more... )
