How was everyone's day?

Mine was pretty good. I worked 5 hours and got to see my son, who is also bp, and he is doing great!! I can't explain the joy I feel seeing him doing so much better. I find I care more about his recovery than my own. I love him so much. All four of my kids are a blessing to my life. I look forward to improving my relationship with them all in time. My bp pretty well screwed them up, but I am trying to rectify all that. Only one of them isn't speaking to me now and I pray she will forgive me and come around.

I'm glad you're doing better with your children and had a pretty good day.

Mine was....interesting. I haven't slept in 5, now going on 6, days so I was kind of in a fog, if you will. But it wasn't a bad day, so that's something, right?

Do you have anything to help you sleep? Did you call your doc? I'm concerned you haven't slept for so long. What can I do to help?

I had a good day yesterday. We had invited a couple around for dinner. I had to clean and tidy whitch took me all day. Hubby and kids helped when they got home. House looked halfway decent with lamps on and candles lit. I did a very simple dish of pork chops in a musturd cream sauce. It all went well, I'm glad to say.
Sorry about your daughter, denmore but as you say, I'm sure time the great healer will help. Maybe your other kids will tell her how well you are doing and how hard you are trying.

I had a really horrible day and was glad it was over when I went to bed 4 hours ago now here I am up in the middle of the night dwelling on my pointless existence. Sorry to be such a downer.

That's great news!
My day was first decaffeinated (lousy) then caffeinated & much improved! :) Has any particular medication made the big difference for yr son?

I had a good day off of work and went shopping for clothes and shoes. I also ran five miles and got some work done on the webpage. I had hoped to get more sleep and just woke up with five hours of sleep so I can't complain. I feel for those of you still awake with no sleep. xo

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

    My ENT sent me for more tests last week...one where they had me lie back in a chair, with blacked out goggles on so I couldn't see while they administered water into my ears one at a time ( first warm, then room-tempurature, then cold) while they video taped my eyes and asked me questions to determine how cognizant I was... This test went HORRIBLY. They were about 20 seconds or so into...
