Happy hump day to all.
My drop in sub has been painless so far.Ive gone from 3mg to 2 mg with very little effects.Its only been 6 days so...time will tell but im feeling optimistic.
Whats on tap for everyone today?
Im working,im come and go,so i have time off sometimes during the day.Im keeping my little grandson over tonight,im looking forward to it,hes such a good little guy.Never cries unless hes hungry,and sleeps through the night,usually goes to sleep around 10 and wakes at 7.I told my son and DIL,be thankful,it isnt always this easy.I remember my oldest grandson,he had colic and cried all night every night for like 4 months!
Hope youre all doing well,living your dreams,and taking time for yoursleves.Im working on just that.~KIM
Goos morning Kim! So nice to see that you started a goos.
I am sick again, another trip to the dr. This time it has moved into my chest, I'm sure he will put me on Levaquin this time around and hopefully that will kick it's butt. Horrible sore throat last night and today, yucky blisters all over my throat and tongue...I can't get in till 4:30 and I'm sure he will give me another shot of decadron which will have me up all night.
Kenny has been taking up alot of my time. Jana has been taking care of filing for food stamps and taking care of other business. She has a friend (well, not a friend) who stole Kenny's bd party money from her, so the girl let Jana use her food stamps and all of a sudden the girl is saying that Jana stole her purse and used her food stamps without permission. This is Jana's one bailout, $325 and there's no guarantee that the DA won't prosecute. Hopefully this is it for the drama.
I called CPS because Jana reminded me of a story of her BIL taking Kenny's older brother and picking him up and shaking him (he was 4) at the reception following Kenny's dad's funeral. I remember her telling me about it a long time before this injury happened to Kenny. So I called them and the Sheriff's office to make them aware that her BIL had a prior history of child abuse. Jana said she dropped Kenny off at 7:30 and her SIL called the sheriff around 10:30. So this could have happened at the SIL's home. Our goal is to keep Kenny safe, so I'm not sure that he will visit auntie anymore.
Gosh, I'm sorry I yakked your head off, I don't get on often enough. I need to get a shower before we go and take care of all this business.

Morning Jewls and Thumper.
Jewls,good luck with the weaning off the sub.I think its going to be alright.Ive imagined it being horrific,and im starting to think it wont be so bad? Keeping my fingers crossed.
I do love my grandchildren,they take up all my spare time.I just got out of work for a few hours,so i stopped at the family dollar and got a bunch of cute little girls stuff for prizes for my granddaughters 6th birthday party Saturday.Its going to be a sleepover with lots of games and prizes,it should be a good time.
thumper,good morning to you.You always take the time to jump on and say hi,its obvious youve been busy and on the run.Hope life slows down for you a bit,and you get a chance to relax.Take care~KIM

Hi girls!!! I know Im alittle late,Mikey has a couple days off so Im slow starting!!!
Cold but sunny here in NY.
Im looking forwards to Sunday SO much.
My boss desided that they will buy bus tickets to get up the mountain.
Good news on the Sub front...My Dr DID go to bat for me & Im approved for at least 7 more mths.Im hoping to drop more even if its only 2-4 mg,but that will depend on my pain level.
So what is everyone doing today?
Kimber Im very proud of your drop.Ive found that if you do small drops it isnt bad at all!!!
Jewels????? HUGE HUG TO YOU PRETTY LADY!!!
Janet how is little man doing?How are YOU holding up?
Thumper Oh Thumper...how come you NEVER write me anymore???Dont ya love me no mo????

Goos morning all,
Congrats on all of the suboxone tapering!! I met with my sub doctor yesterday and he said I could start tapering any time I feel ready. I will start it soon, just need to completely get my mind around the thought. I've only been on it for 3 months and he said 6 months from now I will be off of it so I am excited about that. Of course it is a little bit scary, but all of this is so no big difference. Between the great support I am getting from my wife and family, the therapy and NA I KNOW I will make it this time. Every other time I tried to quit I was doing it all alone without even my wife knowing.
Anyway, Kim or Molly (I cant remember which one had the bad keyboard.....symptom of the norco....), looks like you got a new keyboard? Did you get one you like?
peaceout

LOL DJ,no...no new keyboard,havent had time to go get one yet.But...this Y has a mind of its own,it works sometimes and sometimes not.
Congrats on taking the first steps to get off the sub.My Dr told me the same thing,about 6 months time(though)i tend to think less time than that.But im so very thankful to be doing it,ive worried about it so much,it feels good top be finally doing it.Im not sure how im going to feel in the end,i hope i can handle it,but...i will definitley keep you posted.Its so much less frightening when someone has gone before you,and can tell how they felt.Then again,it seems with this drug,everyones different?We;;ll see.
Good morning MJ,glad to see you finally decided to drop in,i was beginning to think you were snubbing us,lol...just think,SPRING,its going to be nice before we know it.Going out without a coat,taking walks,and yes...fishing!!! We go fishing every weekend up to Lake George.Bring our tubes,boogy boards,the kids have a blast,we have a spot,pretty secluded,we bring a picnic lunch and just swim and fish all day long.The kids love the long trek down into the woods to get there,but its worth it when we do,its soooooo beautiful!Hope you and Mikey have a nice day together.~KIM

It's so goos to see all of you sub people working on tapering. I know that some of you use it for pain and I'm glad to see that it works for that.
I have the rest of the day free. Jana took Kenny to do their business. We went and paid her restitution and the officer said that she would probably not get charged with anything. Cross your fingers because she is trying to get food stamps to help out at home.
You know how God always does his little miracles?? Well, I picked Dylan up from school last Thursday because he had a dr appt, actually he called me a few hours sooner because he wasn't feeling well. Anyway, I was waiting for him and happened to notice this flyer from Angel Ministries on the counter. I had seen them advertised on TV here, but this really hit home when it was needed. This church group gets together $70 worth of groceries for only $25. It appears to cover a week of meals, meat, veggies and staples. I ordered one package, but you can buy as much as you want...we are waiting to see if the food is good quality, hopefully it is and we can save alot of money shopping this way. They also take food stamps. This will really help us financially so I am praying that it works out. Amazing what God can do!
I am enjoying my alone time, even though I'm not feeling that well. MJ, you know how low my voice is?? geez it is sooooo low right now because I am hoarse.
It is pretty out here, going to be in the high 70's. I just rinsed off the pollen from my car, it had greenish yellow (lellow in Kenny-speak)powder all over it. I'm wondering if maybe I have my allergies back and this is what is making me sick. Years ago I went through a few years of shots and thought things were okay. Anyway, I couldn't stand looking at my dirty car anymore. My back yard looks like a kid lives here. Toy trucks and riding toys all over the place!
