June, vacation time/mode!!!!!!
 
Good morning all!
Time to start a new thread/ new month!
Ready to take a much needed break from recording. I sent in that months numbers to my pdoc so now can ease up and relax about that. She has some numbers from me and that is what she asked for. I did not tell her that I was not recording for the month of June. I see her when we get back.
As Kay suggested, I will be careful about my drinking. Don't want to mess with our vacation.
I have been sleeping less around 6 hours a night for some time now. I hope I can sleep in strange beds etc. I am taking extra klonipin if I need it just in case.
Wrote all of our B&B folks about a hair dryer and 2 have responded that they will have one there so that is good so I hopefully won't have to bring one nor get a converter because our cell phones have them built in, so we did not buy one....have to hear from one more to be 100% sure. Keeping fingers crossed.
I worked last weekend saturday and sunday and I will again this weekend both days....can't seem to say no to my folks or new ones for that matter. So far I have not had to turn anyone away but am seeing more people a day then usual to accommodate the new ones.
I am giving myself the day off before we leave.:)
Getting excited now....this is really happening!

Bizi,


A. Are you taking meds in two bags?
1 carryon
and
2 checked underneath the plane?

=========

B. Are you leaving your pdoc and pharmacy phone number with friends or relatives in case of emergency?


=========


C. ALSO these rules:

yes we are only carrying on our bags.
yes we will leave important info with family.
I have the original bottles and a letter from my pdoc the meds that I take including names of my supplements and a z-pack in case I get sick.

jeff is ordering money today which should be in by monday.
I slept a solid 7 hours last night so that was good. up when the alarm went off at 7 am, have an 830 appointment.
need to get going.

Increased drinking + now a little decreased sleep… are you sure you don't want to call your pdoc? I promise I won't ask again.

I feel jittery if I miss my am meds, too. Especially with all the coffee I drink. I've gotten in the car and halfway down the street only to realize I haven't taken my meds, so I turn around. I'm glad the jitteriness was due to missing the Geodon, not another symptom of hypomania.

It sounds like you are thinking of everything Bizi. I'm so excited for you!!!

With all of this extra work you're putting in, you'll have some extra cash for your trip! :)

I can tell when i have forgotten my meds at noon.
by 5 pm I am like a hypoglycemic person have to eat!
So to have 4 cups of coffee and then forget my meds set me up to be a mess the rest of the day.
We are going to whole foods for a couple of beers.
jeff is finished planning paris! so now to review every thing.
Thank you for your concern kay, love you
