Hey Amy, Grumps, and LisaGuthrie,

Where are you?? I have been very busy and EXAUSTED(sp?) with this new job. Not a job to keep that is for sure. Too tired at the end of the day to make dinner and play with the kids. NOT GOOD!!

Where is everyone??? Why are you not writing??? I miss you guys!

How are you now after your seizure Grumps?? I am worried about you.

How about you Amy...Any more seizures??

Lisa, how is your family and how are you holding up??

Please Please Please answer!!

I had two seizures the other night. I felt BAD the next day. Yesterday and today were ok. Not my best but ok.

My Mother-in-law is here and that is taking up my time also. That is why my writing has been low. Sorry!!

Please write! I check when I can and I don't see anyone. I miss you guys and I am worried.

God Bless you,
KittyMom

SORRY SORRY KITTY - I didn't mean to be away for so long - but busy couple of days I will fill you in on the gossip.

I wonder what time it is with you guys the middle of the night I guess it is about 10.45am here and the sun is shinning but not too hot.

I've been to the gym this morning up @ 6.30 under protest I must say.

I am well after by szr to post feeling I was fine the following day which is good news.

Business is going OK slow but OK so I have got some temporary work for the next few months to keep the money coming in.

Kitty new job not good????? What are you going to do why is it not good???

Amy how are you - feeling better

Lisa how are the kids????????????

Oh the other reason I have not been on is trying to get my boyfriend off the PC he has found chess on-line and is now addicted to playing bless him.

I have to say Kitty that since my rant and rave @ him I feel much better and much calmer - I also feel better about having some work so maybe that was contributing to me being stressed. Who knows.

Anyway girls I will check in later when you are all up

Lots of Love

Hello!!!!

I miss you gals too!!!

Kitty, sorry about the new job

It's not worth it if you're so tired at the end of the day! Our poor kitty!

Grumps, good for you on getting up and working out so early! I wish I had your DISCIPLINE!!! I was doing that but now that "snooze button" looks so much better and I hit instead! I'm trying to work out in the evenings.

Grumps, have you ever tried Topamax??? I'm on that now...Oh my gooosh...so far, this stuff has me higher than a kite!! I'm loopy allll the time, hopefully after a week or so it will start building up a resistance or something because I'm not liking it so far!

Anyway, talk to you girls soon!!! Miss you bunches!!!

Amy

You two are the best!! I miss you both. I am very happy to see that you wrote though. Thanks!!

I called out sick from work today. I just couldn't do it again today. I hurt and am sore all over. I haven't been getting enough sleep either. My eating is for the birds too. This is just a great recipe for a seizure. I know one will come either tonight or tomorrow. I have been neglecting myself. I am doing some house cleaning on the side until I can sue my former employer. This woman that I work for is from France and is she ever anal about EVERYTHING! I am supposed to go thru the silverwear drawer and check to see if any have been used and not washed and then wash it up. NO WAY!! She wants these HUGE houses done in an hour with just 2 of us. NO WAY!! She is asking the imposable for very little pay. My mother-in-law knows a woman here who is doing house cleaning for more money and she isn't as anal. I can choose my own hours and the pay is GREAT!! I won't kill myself doing this!! I will be able to eat and have energy...there is a concept!! What a "female dog".

I am sorry to hear about your seizures Amy. That is aweful!! I feel for ya. Your meds sound like any other ASM and you should give it a little more time to get used to. I know how they can be though. How are you doing other than all of this?

Grumps, how are you doing with the Keppra?? Any better? Still feeling depressed?? That could have been from the seizure!? Was the depression before or after?? How long before or after? I have some sort of a slight warning about 6-8 hours before a seizure. Drastic mood swings. I go from happy to crying and then right into a feeling of extreem love, etc. It is annoying but it has been dead-on accurate every time. I am woundering if that isn't what happened to you. Let me know.

Anyway ladies, I have the day off. I do have some erands to run but I will be back later to write you. Please write back when you can..........UH OH!! I am having those mood swings NOW!! Let me see if I am right!!

God Bless and write me,
KittyMom

The mood swings might just be from lack of sleep. I only have gotten 8 hours in two days. Last night I got 4 1/2. This is goig to be an interesting day!
