Good Monday Morning friends!

I am a 5. My mom is still in the hospital. They will be doing tests today. Noca is leaving today. We are going to have breakfast at IHOP before he leaves. I am going to wake him up at 6:00 or so. He has really been great this weekend. For once I felt I could relax and let someone else call the shots and make decsions. I sure am going to miss him! My daughter is with her Dad until Thursday so atleast that is a little stress relief.

I hope everyone has a great Monday! I sure hope I do!!!!!!

i'm a sunny 7, got the music blaring out loud and i'm ready to tackle anything...

I'm a 4 as usual.

I'm a 6 today. I have an appointment with my new pdoc this afternoon which I'm looking forward to. I can't wait to tell him how well my Risperdal is working as well as my other meds. My moods have finally leveled out and I'm no longer manic or ill. The weather here is expected to be sunny with temperatures in the 40s. The snow we received over the weekend has melted, so that has put me in a good mood as well.

I wanted to give an update since it has been several hours since I first posted. I am still a 5. But with anxiety now. I just realized that I have a meeting with my director. Depending on her mood- it could have a negative effect on my mood. I am waiting on a call from the doctor about my mom. I am just really hoping for an easy stress free day. I did a radical acceptance exercise about Noca leaving. I have accepted it.

I will give another update later as this helps me cope with everything.

((((((hugs))))))))

I am my normal 5 hoping for a 6 later.

I'm 4. Still coughing and breathless. I'm beginning to wonder it I will get over this blasted thing.

I'm a 2.
