Busy
Well, trying to do a quick update: Still doing 1 Lexapro a day and only 1 Xanax in AM. Over the last 1 1/2 weeks, I had a couple of minor scary shaky episodes that were short and not bad. Drove all day yesterday and Sunday and not a single panic attack. Phew! I am on chapter 2 of my book on panic attacks. too busy this week to read much more. I would also like to finish my other regular book, "The Passage" but haven't gotten to that in a while either. My biggest problem is fatigue. In the afternoons, I am so dead tired, I can't seem to get anything done. I think it is the meds for sure. I have caught a little bit of a break at work, Thank God! But I am still struggling as I am so tired and can't seem to motivate myself. So this is good news/bad news.
House is a disaster. Most of cabinets out now. Refrigerator getting moved to the foyer tomorrow. Old stove and oven getting disconnected and new window going in. Dust everywhere. I am going to lock myself in my office tomorrow with the dog. Things are also moving along with the basement as well. A couple of minor setbacks/delays. Husband is freaking out. Xanax for me must be working as I am not sweating it right now. My eating is really bad. Anything and everything. It is like being on prednisone! Ugh! And I eat even when I am full and I am nauseaus! And I feel slightly down.
i did not get to the Y at all last week. Like I said, sleeping and fatigue is huge. But, for some reason, I am totally off the charts with Wii Walk it Out. Took me from February to a few weeks ago to complete the game (although I wasn't doing it every day.) I did go to Zumba Sunday AM. I have been doing Wii Walk It Out almost every day am already 22% of the way through the game a 2nd time. I have over 200,000 steps for month of August already! Woo Hoo! 72 miles as of yesterday.
So I am just taking it one day at a time. Need to find balance between caring enough and yet not paniking over every little detail. Paul is a maniac right now. Screaming over everything! I am going to slip a Xanax into his coffee if this keeps up! David isn't doing bad, in spite of it all. he did have a screaming match with Paul on Sunday and ran away for a few hours in the pouring rain. (he went to a friend's house but did not call.) He did come home on his own. He did apologize.
School starts in a few weeks. 8/29. Can't wait! Kona is doing fine. Still on antibiotics. My friends 15 year old son bowled a perfect game last week! A 300! It was awesome to see it! 12 strikes in a row. It was his first one. He has a 232 average. this week is our last week of Jr/Adult bowling league for David and I. That will give me a break until my Friday night adult league starts up after Labor Day.
I will try to catch up with everyone this week! Hugs to all in the meantime!
