I'm sorry your having such a rough evening. Sounds like you needed him
to have a different occupation while you were out having a good afternoon
than he did. Sorry he found the one he did.

Hoping tomorrow is much better.

Hoping the agent when she gets back to you enjoyed the book.
And has some good ideas on publishers. Not sure when school starts again in many parts but we have about 3 weeks here. We just got things to the 4-H fair today.

Now I'm getting ready to start getting clothes ready for camp for Derrick.
Then it will be just about time for school. Wow its getting close to done for summer here for the boredom for Derrick.

Thanks Donna, I really have had a rough day today after Mom left. It's so hard sometimes, I just dont know how to get through it at times like this. Thanks for the kind words, it helped to hear them before bed. I think I might just change my mood to tired now instead of bitchy since I don't feel as upset now.

Hope that you have a good day tomorrow too. Thanks again for the kind words Donna, it's so nice to know that I have good friends here who understand and care about my situation.

good to get the updates and plans fromeveryone...Where are you though BF?

Wendy I am so glad to see that your back and everything went OK. Nikko, glad the tooth problem cured the ehadaches for sure. Sounds like a long road ahead though.

To everyone, have a nice Sunday and I wish for you pleasent weather.

Man, Jackie got up at 4am yesterday and so I was sure he wouldn't wake up last night really early but at 11 pm he woke up ranting, I don't know what the problem was but MAN he was NOT sleepy and I had just fallen asleep. I hate summer, I really do. It totally throws my family into chaos.

He DID finally go back to bed but it took about twenty minutes. I was sure he was going to get back up and I would have to make coffee or something just to keep my eyes open. But thankfully he decided to go back to bed. I wish he could tell us what his problem was, sometimes he just can't articulate his feelings or what he's feeling and other times he's able to say, "I'm fine" or "Sure" when we ask him if he's okay.

Hopefully today won't rain so much again and we can take him to the park. If not then oh well. It's up to 60% chance of rain so I think that will be out since Florida is notorious for afternoon showers, I am not going to hold my breath over the weather today. Hope everyone else is having a good weekend, I feel better today then I did yesterday, but only because I got some decent rest.

Hi Pam.
I am sorry you are going through so much stress, you certainly have your plate full. As my grandmother used to say "God only give it to those that can handle it" HA....OMG

You are stronger than you think, and handle things very well.

I hope you are able to get outside and take Jackie to the park or someplace.

I hope you are able to get a good night's sleep too. You mentioned Lamictal, I take 200 mg, it was a life savor for me. You have to start off slowly and work your way up to the dosage that is right for you, but it's well worth it. I'd give it a try for sure.
Take care. I feel for you.

Hugs, Nikko

I have been moving my neighbors. Taking a few minutes before I head next door this morning.

sigh and ouch

OMG! Some really rough times and some really good times for people this week.

HUGS AND LOVES TO ALL OF YOU!!

And hugs and love back to you too!

Nikko

Thank you Nikko, I really appreciate your kind words. I have been cleaning this morning and am almost done. Just taking a quick break to check on the boards. I think I am going to take the T up on the lamictal, she'd talked about gettin gup to 200 MG and since its what Jackie takes to control his seizures and he hasn't had any problems I figure I will be fine with it too. It just depends on how I feel when I am totally off the wellbutrin. I have a feeling though it's going to be needed, so I am preparing myself mentally to start on it.

Hopefully my insurance won't give me a lot of trouble over it, you never know with part d. Thanks for the reply Nikko, I hope you are feeling better, I have had teeth extracted too and know how hard it is to eat and drink afterwards, but it will get better quickly. Hang in there!

I too was on Wellbutrin the AD, but Lamictal is a mood stabilizer. I can't remember what AD she switched me to at the time I went on Lamictal. But, now my AD is Cymbalta.

I didn't have any problems going off the Wellbutrin though.

Good Luck, Nikko

Sounds like everyone has somethings planned for today.

Or at least if nothing else some rest time or some cleaning.

Pam
I was wondering if Jackie would take apart electrical things if you could
find them and put them back together. Just curious if you could find
something that he would find interesting to work on.
