Weekend Thread just a little early (August 1st)
 
Hoping no one mind's but I hate to be so late I feel like I miss the whole thread, or even just the most of it. So I thought I'd start this one.

And it would also give me good luck on my driving tomorrow, or today after
sleep. I'm going to get Derrick in a few hours in Bloomington Illinois from
Epilepsy Camp. And I know he will have had a great time, and will have
rather stayed longer. But alias they have only one week.

I then go get my device reprogramed. Saturday I am determined to go
garage saling. I've not made it, its my turn. My husband and son are
getting his house ready I hope, its looking as a busy week for him and
hopefully the house will be ready soon.

Then on Sunday, one of my granddaughter's is getting baptized. I
don't think I'm going to get to go. I am having trouble working both this
and the returning of the device in the schedule and then to Indy.

But life is life. I have to say, my husband is doing good coming through
for me right now. I have a new van again. Its because mine broke down, and we aren't sure what's wrong. And I had to have something to drive
tomorrow, so its all good. Thanks too all that encouraged me to stand
up to him.

Its been a great time lately. You will all be in my thoughts next week, but
not sure how much you will see me, I have a full week. Even have been
given a okay for 81/2 hours of overtime. WOW.

Hi, Donna,
Thanks for the nice update.
You have a busy week ahead.


This was a tough week for me.
I felt crummy and depressed.
I'm looking forward to seeing the tdoc tomorrow.
Maybe she can help.
Maybe I should go to bed on time tonight.

Dear Mari,
I am sorry that you are feeling crummy....
Do you think some evening time at the beach might help?
WE are planning a quick trip to pensecola in a couple of weeks....hope the weather cooperates.
I need to unpack and do laundry.
I showered tonight...took forever...scratched myself raw for some reason....
my neice is having back problems, a pinched nerve of sorts her left foot is numb and she can't curl her toes...and started having numbness in her arm as well...very scarey stuff...they are scheduled for a mri of her whole spine next thursday. She is a cheerleader, had to quit because of her back.:(

I got so wired up mentally working on my website tonight that I'm having to take time to relax now. I have a beer for just that. My muscles are all tense also from being in one position for a long time. I think that jerk Chris I was going with woke me up to reality and helped me to see my priorities. Now that I am digging into my studies and getting into other interests outside my neighborhood I have some neighbors wanting to spend time with me at my place. Two of them who come most often don't smoke as the ones who smoke won't come to my place because they can't smoke. Life is getting good.

Everyone is so busy, I use to think weekends were to relax, now they seem so filled with everything that needs be finished from one week and a head start on the next week.

we are planning a trip to Buffalo NY this THursday. My step daughterhas a lead in local theater production of Jesus Christ Superstar.
My youngest with the anxiety won't go. She refused an overnight trip a few weeks ago to Philadelphia. That was difficult because she loves the Speghetti Wearhouse. But she would not go over night. Eveything in Phila closes at 5:0 PM as far as the attractions.

We have to stay over night too far to travel in one day to Buffalo from NE PA. I want to see the Falls again, go to the butterfly obsrv. and a day at Niagara on the Lake. We have not been up in ten years. My Lexapro and Ativan help me to get there, I have travel phobia too.

I am hoping some of the sites will intrigue her, the Museum, the marine land, Butterflys....
Otherwise I have to leave her with my older son's family. I so want her to go.

The race for Nascar is in Poconos this weekend so lots of local activity. We will not go this year. The guys like the time trials on Saturday, but not this time.
Everyone my thoughts are with you, have the best weekend and week you can.

There should be directions on how to take them on the bottle Meghan, your Pdoc might be just simply saying he's only going to RX meds for you and now it's up to you to find a licensed therapist to work out the other issues since he is only willing to prescribe. I was just a little worried by your post because I know some Pdocs only RX drugs and don't DO therapy like they used to. Look for a licensed therapist at your local mental health clinic and I bet after you've done an intake with them like I had to do last week you'll get on with a counselor who you'll be able to work with. :)

As for us, same old same old, going out with Mom, I just got back with pizzas, NO cooking for me tonight!~ and only limited dishes! HURRAY! I also bought some highlighter pens I needed to use on my notes for that Open Uni on Information Communication Technology I am working on at home. It's not credited courses, but free courseware which I am using to help get prepared for college. :)

ooo whats this open uni thing? it sounds interesting and like something I would like to do. and I'm jealous of the pizza! I want to make homemade pizza I havent done that in so long and I want to make homemade pasta sauce. My dad has a HUGE garden (he has 157 tomato plants, along with cucumbers and zucchini and other things!)

I have no idea how to make sauce but hopefully I can learn!:)
