my mood has been all over the place and I am definitely hypomanic. I have been having mixed episodes. The first two weeks I started Geodon my mood was stable. I hope she raises the dosage. My medication really needs adjustment especially since more holidays are coming up. Finally I didn't have a stomach ache throughout the night.
I finally wrote Alice about being my health proxy. She wrote me back that she wants to find out more about and if you can avoid it. I want no life support. We will talk next week. I also have to ask her if she will take care of my burial. I left instructions in my will and already have a plot and want to be buried in the Orthodox tradition with a simple pine box coffin, just having my body washed and put in a shroud and no ceremony. I have the money and basically she would just have call the mortuary in West Hartford which would make all the arrangements.

I have been giving Aby a treat she loves every morning now. She is bent out of shape since Pudge is spending so much time on the bed.
I think I will make an exception and get Mongolian beef and egg drop soup again today. I don't have urge to buy anything else at last.
