I have to stop and listen to my body

So I started my new medication a couple of nights ago, and I have to say that it takes me on a really weird psychedelic trip. I take it at night and when I’m in that sort of awake, sort of asleep phase things start flying out at me, lights flash. It’s really crazy. I hope it’s just my body getting used to the meds or else I’m going to have to change.

I woke up at 6:15, so stuffed up that I couldn’t breath. It wasn’t a great feeling at all. I wanted to cancel my party, but how can you when you’ve got six other independent consultants and a number of guests all coming? I started to feel a bit better as the day went on, but boy am I ever suffering now. I have very little voice left.

I think the open house went really well. Everyone loved my gift basket, door prize. Most of the other consultants were thrilled with the work I’d put into it. I think everyone got one or two sales. Smiles all around. I got a few Christmas gifts for people and some really nice hostess gifts. I got some Creative Memories stuff; yeah, scrapbooking time. I got a few nice serving platters and some cool Christmas decorations. I do wish that I would have gotten more than one Avon order, but perhaps they will come.

The boys, including Hubby, were such a big help getting things ready. They’re also all taking really good care of me with my cold/flu thing. Doodles even dusted the snow off my ghosts. Although they seem to be falling down under the weight of the snow. You also can barely see my graveyard or other things. I can’t believe that we still haven’t carved pumpkins and that my costume isn’t done. I didn’t buy enough fabric for the sleeves, so I can now only make one. I’ll have to try and come up with some other cool idea.

Special thanks also to my mom and Kindred Spirit for all of their help. It’s great to have such strong support. Thank you to all of you for your comments and support as well. As far as the depression goes, I think things are slowly lifting. Now I just need to feel better physically.

I must go now. I have an assignment to try and complete and a costume to try and sew. I promise I’ll slow down soon.
