Happy (Belated) Thanksgiving
Happy (Belated) Thanksgiving
I would like to wish everyone a very Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! I hope you all had a great day! I meant to blog yesterday, but I spent the entire day eating and binge-watching Netflix with my boyfriend. Thanksgiving turned out great for Mike and I. I was a little worried about how my mood would be, but yesterday was a happy day! Woohoo for me! Lol. Mike cooked a big meal for us, and it tasted excellent. It is rare that we spend the entire day together, and I loved every minute of it.
We watched this movie called Truth or Dare, which surprisingly turned out to be a pretty good movie. Then, we binged watched the show Weeds. I want to try to get our Christmas tree set up this weekend. I wanted to do it yesterday but we were both so tired for the rest of the day after we ate dinner and dessert. I ate so much yesterday, and now I just ate the last of the pumpkin pie too! I have no idea where I put all this food!
I started my new med, generic Tegretol, Wednesday night. It knocked me out for 12 hours! I was supposed to take it again Thanksgiving morning (Thursday) but I didn’t want to sleep all day, so I skipped my morning dose and took it again last night. I knocked out for 13 hours. I took my first time morning dose today, and I have been feeling drowsy all day. It’s almost only 6:30 at night and I am ready for bed, or a nice nap at least.
Thanks for reading! Until next time…

Hey sweetie, sorry I haven’t emailed back yet. I will! I’m so glad you and Mike had a great Thanksgiving!
I used to watch “Weeds” and I really loved it! I haven’t seen “Truth or Dare” – is that the Madonna movie?
The Tegretol sounds superpowerful – wow. I hope hope hope it helps you!!!!!!!! I’m praying for that to happen tonight. You totally deserve a break! Keep us posted and let us know the latest book news – woo hoo! ❤️And hope you got your tree set up or that you get it up soon. Trees are so beautful to have and we want to get one this year, too.

Hey hun, it’s okay no worries. Thank you so much! Your encouragement is very much appreciated! I love “Weeds!” I was so sad when it ended. “Truth or Dare” is a newer horror movie. Kind of reminded me of “Would You Rather” if you have seen that one.
The tegretol seems really powerful! I am feeling almost baseline because of the drowsiness it gives me. It’s about 7 am and I have to take my morning dose in about 2 hours. We didn’t get our tree up yet… hopefully soon! When I do, I am going to post a pic or at least email you! 😍
