thx my friends. am getting there. (wherever that is!!)

hi all. last week or so, lamictal was increased by 200mg. my body did not like the big increase all at onc. face pimples, and angry ones. not johnsons syndrome. so i am just going to go the extra 25mg to see how it goes. got a script for prn abilify. 10mg. was too intense, and not happy wotking with the lamictal; so at 5mg the abilify will be a strict prn. face clearing. been busy cleaning my shed out. council are picking up a broken washer, some metal gates and a metal frame and 3 old mowers. the recyclers will be happy when they come. i said you can have the lot if you take it away no charge. so just waiting for the p/up. i am ok. just hurt myself moving a gate. be good.

all good thx. just sore. did more gardening today, now tired. received my casual engagement forms for the lecture. to do the teaching session, i have to be employed by the university. man, forms, paperwork, blown my mind. my tax file no.? it is not happy with it as my address has like changed 10 times, and is nominated as an infrequent lodger; like yeah, 15 yrs ago i last lodged my tax!!! so i am making an appt with the right people to rectify this. i will be paid for 2 hours, under a guest lecturers award rate, which is pretty bloody good. lecture mon 17th. taxi fars are covered. will receive vouchers in the mail. the university is recording the lecture, and if consent by the other participant, and if the university concurs, then i will ask for a copy. i am going to be so proud to write on my cv. guest presentation.......etc etc highlighting school of medicine and relevant particulars. be good. love 2 u all. a lot of paranoia today. and anxiety.

thx. me too. it really does validate my experience/ hard work/ training and care, not to just myself, but to others as well.

awesome. doing a case study that the students will be addressing to a panel of experts. I am the 'consumer'. 4th sept.

I was a bit nervous but came into my own. the students were so engaging and respectful. just got an e-mail from the professor with heart felt thanks and responded with the same. 'the students were so engaged and intrinsic listening. massive round of applause. it validated my experience, and gave me a good feeling that I imparted some knowledge. I was miked up and recorded. I have a video and a case study to read before hand. I am going to enjoy assessing the students.

okay. still scream at the tv!!! still kicking and screaming I guess. as trina says 'where there is breath there is life'.

Read about your lecture. Very , very impressed that you can get up in front of people. I'd be shacking in my boots.

I would love to read it. You have so much to share, and I have much to learn from you.

I know what you mean some one scammed you out of $. That really saddens me. I hope you follow thru and get ur $ back.

It happens to so many these days. Never give anyone money especially over the phone. Every day there are new scams on the news that people get caught up in.

Take care....
