Hey Everybody!

Sorry for the gap in posts. Things have been happening quickly around here. We have had family emergencies, new offices in which I (the default IT department) had to setup everything from cat5 connectors to printers to phones. But I guess that is job security, maybe.

If you have read my post in the past you know that I have been diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia. Then after trying a medication that worked well I was told that the insurance would not pay for the prescription. After consulting the doctor who gave me some other solutions that were similar to what I had all ready been doing. I went to the VA and got the prescription filled by just showing the doctor my results and talking with him. Nothing too it.

I have been taking it for 3 days now and I feel better and worse. I was drinking 5 or 6 cups of coffee a day just to stay awake. Well, now I have to cut that back and the headache is starting to bother me. The mention of drinking decaf makes me cringe. I have also noticed that I become irritable in the evening. I don’t know if that is the medicine wearing off or a sign that I need to go to bed. I am fighting through it but I don’t want to bother my family. Over the last 2 days I have managed to more done than I would in a week.

My wife has been working on the flower beds and it really looks nice. She has great ideas on what to do with the little area that we have. I know she likes doing that but she seems very frustrated while doing it and I can’t figure that out.
