Other than that, things are going really well. My writing class is coming along, I am learning more about how I am going to write my book. Went to Raleigh yesterday and I feel like I did a million things, but it felt good to meet with people. Heading in to work tomorrow at our new store; I'm really excited about that.
You still worrying about mania? A couple things that would be my warning signs stand out to me in your post like "not really thinking about the future...just enjoying things as they are," (not really a bad thing, but I know my lack of thinking about a future causes a lot of problems for me) and the lack of sleep while also being excited and happy, and feeling "like I did a million things." I'm not saying you're manic, but it is a good time to question if totally stopping a mood stabilizer is a good idea right now and if some things are a little different from your base state, watching for elevation maybe checking in with a provider to get their opinion. I'm glad things seem to be going well. I just don't want to see anything happen to you (anybody on this board really)

I like repeating them just to see if it really is likely cause and effect.
