It is 10am EST Friday and I have been awake since noon Thursday. Twenty- two hours without sleep but my sleep is quite often erratic so nothing new there.

My antibiotics are working it seems and I feel much better. I had run out of neurontin, selegiline and clozapine last week but I felt too sick to drive into town to have my CBC processed (clozapine protocol to watch my WBCs) so I could pick up my meds so I began to get a bit manic as I often do when I run out of them.

I had paid too much on previous electric bills and didn't have to make a January payment so I went shopping with that money yesterday. My washer/dryer doesn't work so I bought my son and me sheets and blankets for our beds (purple for son, teal for me), towels and a rug for the bathroom, three different types of smoke alarms that I am trying to decide which is best for my house (I have electrical shorts and had a room fill with black smoke several months ago which the fire dept said smelled electrical but when I got an electrician here to assess it they were freaked out by all the clutter in the house and said they would return after they finished a job but never came back, remember my Hoarding show I did with TLC in 2010 ? ), a pair of PJs, a covered kitty litter pan that the cat isn't so sure he likes yet, some snacks, $15 worth of D batteries for our lanterns since we can't use the electric in several rooms for fear of the house burning down and me without house insurance , socks and undies, a cooky sheet and spatula because the sinks are full of dirty dishes that we discovered during our recent cleaning to make room for the new mattress my mom got darling son for christmas (I have Schwan's frozen choc chip cookies in the freezer and we want to bake them) - I spent $300 in Kmart and shopping felt good because I seldom have extra money after bills are paid. Sometimes when stuff is dirty it is simpler to buy new stuff. The laundromat is 20 miles away. And if I forget to throw out the coffee filter and rinse the coffee pot it starts to mold after a few days of neglect so I buy another coffee pot rather than brave the mountain of dirty dishes in the sink which is why I now have FIVE coffee pots!!! Who in their right mind needs FIVE coffee pots??!!!>!>!> Oh but wait, I am not in my right mind at the moment

I emailed my sister and asked how bad the roads were because I saw they had shut part of the interstate down last night because the tractor trailers were having trouble in the snowstorm and she said she was surprised I was up so early (7am) and I'm like, yep, I'm feeling better and I have been on the internet all night and playing video games that darling son gave me for christmas.

Can you tell from my posting that I am a bit manic?

If only I had brought home some Chinese food. I want beef and broccoli but we got five inches of snow during the night and metro 911 says roads are still hazardous and avoid driving so I guess I will bake the cookies instead. Good thing I got another gallon of milk at Kmart yesterday while the weather was good. Gotta have milk with the cookies. And darling son has never had snow ice cream and I have a can of condensed sweet milk that has been sitting in the fridge waiting for a snowstorm so we can make some. Yum.

I got the meds filled a few days ago but I am still flying high (in more ways than one) *cough* *cough*

Gotta go fight more Zombies now! Must defeat the Zombies!
