Court, Awwwww... Nice picture! What a handsome guy! :)

Literophile, I love your attitude! (In both posts, lol..)
 
Lol, thanks. I was wired until 2:30 in the morning. Which I would also like to abolish. maybe I should just banish it though. It was, after all, the hour that let me get to sleep even though it sucked. ;)
 
Woohoo managed to pick up my meds today finally so hopefully here's an end to all the "activity" i've been having this week, and maybe a decent nights sleep too.

Tried the sheepy game :D I only got up to about level 9 or ten or something though :O
 
Wow! You got to level 9??? My eyes crossed and went double before I got even close to that.

I bow down to the Sheepy champion!!!!!
 
checking in, still awake and was given an idea of using oil pastels on glass, so looks like I will be staying up even later to create some art. I am holding off on the art, as the glass panes I have are in the garage and have had two small seizures and in aura mode so shall stay put.

aura's gone seizure's been had..in public too! Atleast it was absent seizure.
 
How boring is this: I should be studying, but I am on here instead because I am waiting for my washing machine to be done so I can put my son's jeans in the drier for school in the morning. The washing machine has a timer on it; it should have been done at 11:48 (PM EST last night). But it isn't. I guess I should just be glad I HAVE a washing machine....
 
Well, I think that I passed out rather than actually fell asleep, but it had the desired effect anyway, even if I did end up sleeping in my clothes lol. At least I have no headaches today haha.
 
Lol....

Court, when you sing that I imagine you with a bow glued to the top of you head. It'd go great with your sheep-punting shoes. I'd say it'd go great with the kilt but a few million scotsman would hop over the pond and yell at me.

I thought I had this sleep thing beat. Turns out the insomnia is the IIH (the high fluid pressure in my head), not the lamictal. I was so great for about a few days after they lowered the pressure. I slept like a baby. Now it's back up, and yep, here I am back in the midnight club.

My dog just got up and went into the closet to sleep again. Apparently I move around too much. And the light on doesn't help either.

I have too much time to think at night. And then I start getting scared about my situation, which isn't good for morale. If I let the boogie man get to me, the meds won't work on the IIH and I'll have to have brain surgery, the seizures aren't caused by the IIH and I'll be on AEDs forever, and my brain will shrivel up due to the large number of meds I'm on. The seizure meds were bad enough, but add in all the ones I'm taking for IIH and it is ridiculous. One thing I am deeply grateful for is insurance. I will never take that for granted. I'm scared about when my COBRA runs out.

I didn't mean to whine. I have great things in my life - good family, great friends, my dog, financially getting by, and for the most part, still enjoying my life. Just in a different way. And believe it or not, I'm grateful for my disorders escallating the last few years. It has made me a more compassionate person with a lot more insight into what it is like to be ill and to struggle through it. Now, could we call it "lesson learned?" If disorder/illness would just stop that would be great.

Oh, man. While I've been writing this the dog has been busy. He has been digging undergarments and socks out of the laundry basket and hiding them under the bed. Back and forth, back and forth. Where on earth did his little doggie brain get the idea to do that?

I'm rambling. Can someone please just read me a really boring book and put me to sleep? Maybe I'll watch a TiVo of "Masterpiece Theater." Sometimes it has the same effect on me.

Court, Lou, Matchu, Em, Rae, Literophile, Sheri, Aubry, Meetz... Anybody out there?
 
I'm here

believe it or not, and have been for a while. Sadly, I've been having a disagreement with someone. Now, it's time to think about starting the day, and then attempt to negotiate with the soon to be ex. YUCKKKKKK.

Oh, and the doctor's appointment, help with a child welfare case and teach this morning.

Anyone wanna do the negotiating for me? LOLOLOL. :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

Sure, Meetz. I'll negotiate with him. I find that kind of thing actually fun. Point me to him and turn me loose. I'll eat him for breakfast.

But then again, he's not my ex. If he was mine I'd find it definitely NOT fun.

You poor baby. Awful day ahead. On your way home buy a piece of gourmet chocolate, to eat in some decedant way when you get home. The bioflavonoids (spelling?) are actually good for you, and trigger the pleasure centers in your brain. Good for you, good for your emotions. How could you go wrong?

Know we are with you.

<<<hugs>>>
 
trying to sleep was up to three my time iinstalling a wireless printer on a linux computer , now that it is done, the lights on the printer are so bright they are keeping me up, the printer is going to haveto into the hall.
 
Court, you are a techie! Are you available for consultations? (she says with a big smile)
 
Well that

just sucks beans, Court. After doing all that!!


Endless:

I don't mind the negotiating so much, but he's a twerp who's bent on having his way (AGAIN). It annoys me to no end. Being around him or even hearing his voice raises my blood pressure 100 points. He's dragging things out because he can--this was supposed to be done in OCTOBER.
