What's on my mind...
1. My health. I got a call from my Dr. today, she wants to discuss some results from my most recent bloodwork but it can wait until my next scheduled appointment in January!!!! Hello - that stresses me out.
2. My skin. I'm on Accutane. It's...variable. Some days I think my skin looks better, other days I bleed so easily that a scratch causes a mark. Further more, the side effects of the medication include -sleep problems and mood swings...
3. Sleep problems - still variable. Some nights I get crappy sleep, other nights it's great. The nights it's great, I have a harder time the next day. The nights it's bad, I mostly can cope...the days that I sleep bad, I get more emotional....that's really difficult...combine that with my hormones...and it's interesting!
4. Mood swings...let's see, depends on where I am in my cycle, and how much sleep I get.
5. House...not where I want it to be....depends on how much energy I have at the end of any day.
6. Parenting...is becoming downright fun...K's personality grows by leaps and bounds daily...though I have to admit I worry about her. She hasn't been eating well in the last little while and her sleep is not great either. She regularly has bags under her eyes and wants to cuddle.
Needs
1. To quit smoking... I'm out, and do not intend to purchase more. If I have them, I smoke them. I'm away from work for 3 days next week, which pulls me away from the predominant enablers....This will all help.
2. To start getting some exercise....Would you believe that I'm happy the snow it here, cause if forces me outside and moving...
3. Get some company here to keep me sane while I work on each room in the house, and set up a routine for maintaining it.
4. To work my way through the to do lists that I'm finally getitng out of my head and onto paper.
5. To try to remember what my homework is supposed to be from the CBT that I keep paying to see.

There's more...but it's taken me hours to put this much down, so that's it for now.
