Joe and I took the kids to the Trick or Treat at the Mill pond. Unfortunately the kids Trunk or treat got canceled due to a lack of participation. We went through the building and got lots of goodies. They really did a great job with the decorating. The kids had fun but I think it might be time for Pierce to be done. Really at 11? I think so. He has very little interest in the whole costume/candy racket. Why are my children not motivated by candy? Seriously when I as little we went out for a full 2 hours, planned the route ahead of time and were beat down tired when we were through. My children could go around one block and ask to go home.
Last weekend our friends Sam and Kristie came over and we went to the Terror in Townsend forest at the Waterford Sportsmen's club. We had a few cocktails and a good time. Joe was not able to stay with the group and we had to leave em.
I got the results back from my sleep study. I do not have sleep apnea. I probably do not have narcolepsy(thank God) but I am oddly tired. I was able to sleep from 9 until eight the next morning and then take 5 naps the next day. At each nap I fell asleep within 2.4 minutes. I told you people I was tired! See Julie matching issues, we really are family! I originally went in because of the crazy sleepwalking/talking but the biggest issue was my nodding off while driving. Not Safe! They gave me a drug called Provigil, it's like speed. I took it yesterday at 9am and did not fall asleep until 3am. I may need a lower dosage. Of course the doctor recommended I lose weight, as they all do. The skinny hag behind the counter highlighted that area for me. She was so lucky I am both fat and tired or I would jumped threw the little window!

Hope they can get your med straight. It's not fun to not be able to sleep. Maybe they can just give you some of my blood and I can get some of yours so we both can be asleep when we should. The kids look bigger every time I see them. Have a good week-end!
Hey!
I see you are having sleep issues too. I finally got diagnosed with sleep apnea and got a CPAP machine. The rub is that I haven't been able to use it yet as I've been sick for a week, and now my nose is still congested. I'm trying it for the first time tonight, we'll see how it goes. They also gave me Provigil, 200 mg 2x day. It did not much of anything for me. The first day I took the second dose too late, like 6pm and I was up until 3am, but after that, nothing. I'm lucky that Megan pretty much drives everywhere during the week because when I do drive, I'm not sure if I can always stay awake. I'm hoping the machine works because the tiredness we've both got is draining our lives you know?
I hope they figure yours out soon though, let me know what they find!
Love to you and yours from us :)
