All went well at my sons sleep over. He ended up with only one friend . He lost it on Saturday morning tho and I sent his friend home early. I could tell he was getting manic. He is starting to cycle more now that the abilify is leveled out in his bloodstream. He takes it at night and is fine until about 10 am the next morning. Helps him with his nightmares.
As for me I am doing good. Not getting much accomplished but trying. Addicted to the freecycle.org website, thanks marci :). I am getting rid of a lot of boys clothing yahoo. But ignored ebay for a few days have to kick it into gear tonight.
Things with my mood are better, but I am still having a few issues. More intuned to my moods. I am taking both my depakote. Gotta go tomorrow and get my levels. I realized that I have had self injury tendancies but never realized to what extent. It is when I go a bit manic - I cut my toe nails down to nothing. So gross. Need to stop. The pain lasts for days.
That is my update.

Jen,
Glad your sons sleep over went well, it won't be the first or last time one broke up a little early even for "normal" kids.
Yeah, freecycle can be definitely addictive--especially when you have OCD packrat tendancies like me, but I've gotten some wonderful stuff from it.
Hey Jen!
Glad things went well at the sleepover...and I'm glad your moods seem to be levelling out. As for the issues you're still having, be sure to mention that to your pdoc. You can have your meds adjusted just a tiny bit sometimes to take care of the little "extras" peeking through, so to speak, once you notice them when you're starting to stabilize. You don't have to live with them.
Keep us updated!!!
Hugs,
Keli
