Well, not much of a day for me but that was to be expected. The only thing I did this morning to make me feel good was to fix my DVD remote control problem I had. The remote was not working, even though I had put brand new batteries in. I cleaned a little bit with the remote, lens, and the front of the DVD player. I tested it out and now it works like a champ!

Went on a two and half hour bike ride today. It was a nice, brisk day to do it. Mostly cloudy, but thank goodness it didn't rain as predicted! I remembered Christmas Days in the past when it would rain all day. It was miserable that it rained and I was all alone. Not this time!

Still at the hospital. Felt cold all day from no sleep. He is content. Worry if I can care for him at home.

My mood is ok, but I am quite tired from the Xmas celebration.

[Breaking Dawn]

Things went pretty well today. I enjoyed a good dinner, saw a holiday parade, nice Christmas programs on tv, & experienced being with my PC family. I hope you all had enjoyments, too.

[Rose76]

Still at the hospital. I don't dare leave.

relieved that I am finally feeling some better. dealt with a 24-hour migraine the entire 25th :s
( that's its own kind of h**l on top of the D )

[jrae]

my mind is seriously beating me down

[there goes my day / night / plans / energy]

I think it's going to be a wonderful day! (ha ha?)

I'm not accomplishing much work right now. But I'm making some minimal progress on my next ideas.

Fairly busy in the morning and a little bit of work in the afternoon. A bit busier than I expected. A pretty nice work environment as it's been laid-back and quiet. Not many people at work.

I got home feeling a bit depressed and empty. As of now I don't go back to work until next Thursday. According to the weather forecast, it's supposed to rain on Monday & Tuesday. Great!

[Breaking Dawn]

Most of today went pretty well.

I am finding it incredibly tough to stay positive. Im going to keep trying.

[Rose76]

Having a pretty good morning. Glad to have my s.o. home from the hospital. Maybe I'll cook the ham we got for Xmas that we didn't get to yet.

Withdrawal from medication is really bad right now. I'm experiencing a lot of pain.

Today was a typical routine Saturday. I went to the library to check out some DVDs that I want to watch in the next few days and discovered that I didn't have my wallet in my pocket. I really felt sick about that. I had to go home and then I saw my wallet. After that I went back to the library. What a scare that was!

Nothing much planned from now on. My friend is still under the weather, but his wife seems to be feeling worse. He told me that in the last couple of days, she has been sleeping until 10 AM and not doing much. That's unusual for her. She's 85 or 86 years old. Maybe something is happening to her. I haven't heard from my friend, so far, today.

Hugs... Withdrawal feels like its never going to end and is scary. You're doing well coping and it will be worth it.

Tired. Lack of sleep from circumstances I can't control means not being able to take my sleeping tablets.

And little confession.

I might, might get just a wee liddle bit grumpy from a lack of sleep. Unsure because everyone stays away from me for some reason ?

A fairly busy day for me today. Did laundry, talked to my sister, and went on a long bike ride. It seems like people around me are in pretty bad moods, so that's got me down.

My friend's wife is not feeling well. From the description of her it sounds like it might be serious. She may see someone tomorrow about her health. I hope that she will be alright.

Another day off from work today. In the morning I got my haircut. It had been a few months since I got one, so my hair was very long. The barber didn't take too much time to cut my hair and it looked good. No more out of control hair for me for a good while. After lunch I took a long bike ride.

I was going to go visit my friend today but we both agreed to do it another time. He's still slightly under the weather. His wife is doing just a little bit better today. I spoke with him tonight and he said that he's going with his wife to the doctor's tomorrow. It will be in the early morning. My friend and I had agreed to get together for lunch tomorrow and he would come to my place. But that might not happen if it doesn't go well with the doctor's appointment. I'll understand if he can't come, but I'd be saddened.

Today went pretty well. I hope you all have an enjoyable New Year's!

I don't know if it's the discontinuation of medications, the increasing appetite, or the general worsening of symptoms, but I'm eating much more than I used to. I don't dare step on a scale.

It's very early in the day here and I just finished breakfast. So far this day is not off to a good start. Around 6 AM or so it was very noisy outside. I live fairly close to an airport and the jets seemed like they were very loud, more than usual and it was one after another. Maybe it came from the military base that's not far from the airport. Lately there had been complaints from people at where I live about that.

And my friend cancelled our lunch time today. I was really looking forward to it. As of right now, his wife has not seen the doctor yet, so I'm anxiously waiting to hear about that. He's still under the weather with blowing his nose a lot and coughing. We plan to get together at his place tomorrow. I feel so-so about it because I'm not crazy about going to his place. He said he has some stuff to give me for my birthday tomorrow. I had suggested that we can have that lunch we were going to have next Saturday. He's undecided about that.

I'm feeling better today. Had a great long weekend vacation to visit family and it was really fun!

[giddykitty]

well, that didnt last long! As said in several other threads now (and my personal thread in coping with emotions) I am furious with my husband for lecturing me on losing weight. Grr!

Today was a pretty nice day being my birthday. Got a call from an old college friend this morning, had lunch with my friend, and a very nice talk with my sister. My birthday today wasn't a lot of hoopla but it was fine for me. Took a one-hour bike ride.
