Hey sand,
Well, yes, I think it is a really good thing that my boys keep me so busy! I wonder if that's why I fell asleep on the couch at about 9? hahahahaha
Anyway, I told my hubby yesterday, I don't know if it's the lithium or the Rilutek making my speech seem so much more deliberate. I have an extraordinary amount of saliva now also. I emailed my neuro team this morning, so we'll see what they say.
I know what you mean about the meals thing. I have always been the type that would try my best to help someone else. I find it very hard to tell people "yes", when they ask "do you need anything?". I know that will get easier, I guess after all the years taking care of my mom and my FIL, it's tough to think that someone has to take care of me. I'm with you though, wouldn't it be nice if someone just showed up at the door with a meal? Surely everyone close to my home knows I live at the ballfield.
I'm really not complaining though, it was pretty cool last night, after my 7yr old's baseball was over ( 6 hours in the hot sun, heat index of 103) , I took all 3 boys to the grocery! For the first time EVER, I sat at the front of the store and my 3 boys did the grocery shopping! I was so thrilled! Next I need to teach them how to put everything up when they bring it in the house! hahaha
Keep the faith,
brenda
