Have had a strange week since we got back from the wedding. Quite depressed, but I think it is time for a change of meds. Need to make appoin tment to see my psychiatrist.

I definitely need somethingto make me sleep, need to get into a decent sleep pattern.

Was a public holiday today, so hubby was home, and the kids. That was real nice.

Even managed some 'quality time' with hubby, not easy in a house as full and busy as ours.

Hoping for a doc appointment tom, then he can write me a referal to my psych doc. (Just the way it has to be done here.)

Weather is cooling, but even though I like cooler weather it makes my Fibro much worse. Can't win.
