NO PAIN - well a little in my back but I be feelin' GOOD this morning.  Yesterday was bad in the afternoon.  Took a Vicodin at 4, at 8 I was using all the heating pads and still the pain came back so I took another one.  I slept like a baby and woke up feeling great.  I hate using the vicodin but I have to admit - mipping the pain in the bud seems to be a good strategy.Increasing my Lamictal to 50 mg was very very smart.  Increasing it six months ago would've been smarter but hey, I'd rather undermedicate than over medicate.  dad and I worked on the window seats and I painted everything last night.  I have two new window seats and a HUGE plant stand.  I'm spending money again and accepting gigs.  I have someone waiting to hear yes for one in June or July (my choice) but I couldn't quite bring myself to say yes yesterday.  I'll take a big sigh and pick a day and do it.  I have a bathroom renovation to pay for now. The dean and i will have lunch next Tuesday to talk about my teaching at the university.  If I could teach public speaking - that would be excellent.
