How did the neuro visit go?

I'm getting mixed results with the Klonopin. I'm really, really anxious in the morning and it doesn't seem to do much then. I can't drive if I take more than 1mg tho.

It would be nice to have a cleaning person, but it would be expensive and my husband would never agree to do it. I will get everything done. If we are able to move into a new place in mid-July I would have a lot of time to clean this apartment because our lease here isn't up until August 1st. But I can't count on that, so I will slowly chip away at my list. I think at the rate I am going I will be okay.

Yesterday I picked up the application for that desirable apartment complex. The woman in the office was very nice. I filled the app out last night and made copies of everything I need to submit this morning, and will drop it off today.

I didn't do any cleaning yesterday. After picking up the application, I got my nails done and went to the neurologist. It felt like a really long day... another 5+hour nap.

My neuro asked me if I had been falling... guilty... I've had a couple of little ones without injuries in the last couple of months. He asked because of my MRI and exam. I never mention falls because I assume it's obvious to him that I will have falls. If I hurt myself I would mention it tho. I filled out the paperwork to submit to the drug company and my insurance so I can start getting monthly infusions of Tysabri (MS drug). I see him again in 2 months. No other news there.

I thought about doing laundry this morning, but decided against it. Spending 2 hours at the laundromat to wash the quilt and comforter earlier in the week was enough. The rest can wait until Monday.

After I drop off the application, I'll buy cigarettes and go grocery shopping (short list this week). I think that's enough because I've done a lot this week already.

has he thrown out the furniture? has he helped in anyway? I am glad the woman was nice. How were the rents in that complex? How much laundry do you actually do? We do it every other week. Lately I think i hear somebody throwing up but only a couple of times have i found it on the floor and it is dry
floor. abby has been so active with her new toys. I just saw another one I want to buy her.

No problem at all Bizi. I enjoyed talking with you, too

I love you too Bizi & Bobby :group hug:

You have a good memory Bobby!
Last weekend my husband FINALLY took out 1 out of the 6 pieces of furniture, but it was the biggest one. He said he may take one or two out today, but I don't have high hopes. I can't do anything with that room until he does, and it needs the most… a TON… of work. I would like to start working on that room ASAP, but take my time, and it will take a long time to clean because there's cat litter dust EVERYWHERE. Crossing that room off my list would be a HUGE weight off my shoulders.

I usually wash 2 loads of laundry a week at the same time. My husband gets really dirty at work, so it's mostly his clothes. I didn't do any regular laundry this week.

I'm glad Abby's enjoying her toys. You must be doing a really good job picking them out. We have toys everywhere. Sometimes they will hide them from each other and when they rediscover them it's like we bought them new ones. We had Chinese food last night and fed Buddy and Rocky little pieces of pork. They haven't had people food in a long time and they both puked. I think the dry puke you've been finding is from little hairballs.


With the application for the potentially new apartment complex, we had to submit a bank statement and 4 weeks of my husband's pay stubs. I included my SSDI benefit verification letter, but that's a very small amount of money. The lady in the office took a look at the paperwork and said we'll have no problem. She tried to tell the property manager that we would be willing to move in in the middle of July, and it seemed like she thought it would make him happy, but he was busy. I hope they can find an apartment for us soon… before we are forced to commit to another place because time starts to run out.

I'm mentally packing up the apartment in my mind now… as if I needed more stress. I can redirect myself better about that tho.
I know I'm going to have a hard time getting my husband to go through his **** and throw some things out. I've already decided that I will drag his bags, boxes, etc into the living room and put them in front of him to try to force him to sort through things if I have to. He can do it while he's watching TV.

I blew off food shopping yesterday, so I have to go today. I'll get an early start since I've been doing it all week and it's worked out well for me.
I'm also going to make my MIL brownies for Mother's Day. My mother passed away 20 years ago, August.

Sad about your mother, Kay.

Good luck with getting your husband to go through this stuff.


I hate the stress/b.s. that appt places put on renters for cleaning.
That have to re-paint and such anyway.

When I was probably in my early 20s, and ready to move, the place announced that I had to pay a "carpet" fee.
I probably got "manic" on him and nicely asked him to show me the original
paper work in which I agreed to a fee. We spent some time on the matter.
I absolutely made clear that I would not pay it.

He probably got the money from some other fee, but I felt like it was a "win."

I know that this is an intense time. You seem to be doing well.
I wish you the best.
