Bizi's thread.....
 

I have been charting recording things on the web site optimism for a couple of months now.
I really like it.
I record when I took a shower last, how many drinks I have had, hours slept and quality of sleep. and my mood. So it is very useful then you can print out in a chart a graph of these items so you can see any parallels, relationships between items. It is very useful for me and my health professionals liked it too. They liked the graphs to see patterns.
I could not log into them this morning very frustrating. I got a great nights sleep and took a shower this morning. I had a couple of margaritas with my clients last night around 6pm then nothing else so that was good. So I did not get to record any of that, and I rowed 30 minutes yesterday and sweat quite a bit, my hair was a fright. Thus the need for a shower this morning, plus it had been a while.
I woke up naturally at 6;30. my hips do not bother me. onto my second cup of coffee and need to do a bit of paper work before leaving to see an appointment at 8;30am. I have not done my exercises in a while, nor play the ukulele. Maybe I can get into the routine again while on vacation.
We leave tomorrow. I have a lot of billing to do this night and need to pack and clean out my car. It looks like we will just have paul (he left his wife) staying at our house while we are gone, I gave my girl friend a key in case she feels the need to stay away from her house. She is going thru a divorce and her husband has been acting weird and angry at her. He was recently arrested for child pornography. heavy sigh. They have an 11 year old girl.
Both my good friends are going thru divorce. So there has been quite a bit of drama here over the past 2 weeks. And having worked the entire weekend I needed to get a good nights sleep. I got a solid 8 hours only woke up once and right back to sleep.
I have to pick up my meds tonight and fill up the rest of my pill boxes. Increasing the seroquel and decreasing the klonipin
(which she has wanted to get me off for quite some time because I drink).
Just taking 400mg of lamictal and now 75mg of seroquel. These are the only prescribed meds I take. My mood is stable even with all of this drama going on. My therapist said that I seem pretty calm in the midst of this drama.:)
I am taking zyprexa with us in case I get hypomanic.
Looking forward to seeing family and friends, will be up to see my folks for fathers day. Need to pick up a bottle of wine for my dad and a card.
I won't be on line for the next 2 weeks as we leave in the morning. A stop in memphis for the night then indy bound.
I hope you all have sunny days.

I just found out that the optimism web sight that I was using is no longer available. They shut it down for some reason.
Very sad about this.:(
I will need to find a new charting/tracking system.

I'm so sorry about that website Bizi. It sounds like you were really benefiting from it :hug::hug::hug:
Sometimes when really good sites like that go down, new ones like them spring up to meet the demand for a replacement. I hope that happens.

I'm glad you were able to finish up your billing and packing last night.
I hope you got a good night's sleep!

Have a great trip! :):):)

Thank you!
we are heading out soon.:)
