Sleeping Beauty

I slept through last night and was woken by the breakfast ladies - yay for me!
Yay for me number two - there has been number twos. Six sachets of movicol a day has seemed to be the trick.
I felted another piece of work in art therapy today - it's a relaxing art form and the end result was good if I do say so myself.
All in all not a bad today today.
Hopefully there will be more to come!

Droopy eyes

For some insane turn of events I have stayed awake all day and actually have had energy to do stuff -how I don't know since I've been up since 3:00. It's like it's opposite day.
I'm still waiting for some major movement in the station and am polishing off Movicol as if pit is going out of fashion. There's always tomorrow.
My eyelids ar so droopy now so it's nighty night for me. Fingers crossed.
Goodnight.

"Oh what a night..."

I have been up since 3:02am. Plus I was awake at 1:00 and 2:00. I don't think Valium is for me, because my basic understanding is that it is meant to help you sleep - not sit up writing and drawing and stitching in bed by book light. What can we try next???

I am full of it

No..I mean it.. I am full of it..shit that is - literaly.

My new meds have caused a blockage of huge proportions and I have been taking this and drinking that and even squirting stuff where things normally don't go - and yet I have not gone.

Unfortunately my body is uuuggghh and my mind is aaarrrhhh.

We need some movement of the motions...(sounds like a song title).

"I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell"

Well it's out there now-I have a mental illness. Going to hospital for this illness sort of screams it out to people who didn't know what is the reality for me behind my polished exterior. Lots more know now. And so they should. If there is one thing I have gained from staying in here is that we have to be the advocates for this illness. I will be telling people about my experience. I suffer from depression.

And I'm not crazy.
I'm just a little unwell.

A New Do

Went to the hairdressers today and consequently have new hair. I don't go to the hairdressers regularly so when I do I always have something different done. This time it was putting in some splices of a midnight black in the under layers of my hair so parts could peek through the blonde. I love it. Great holiday hair.

My mood is not bad considering the time of the month. Holidays have much to do with it.
I'm being productive as well so not hitting the end of the day going to bed with guilt for another wasted day. Need to see some productivity in the rest of the family though - I want to see them make and create something these holidays. Will continue to work on it.

flip flops and poo pants

Holidays are here. My fisherman pants and my special purple pants (all of which have a low crutch..hence the poo part) have been on my body non stop. So different from the heels and black dress pants. Shame I've been sick for the most part. Germs were kept at bay till the end of term - since then it's been a free-for-all.
We have nowhere to go and no one to visit and it is liberating.
Our holidays are our own.
Amen
