Since I started the reduction of Depakote (seizure medication) by 250 mg/day for the next two weeks, I have been laying low and staying close to my apartment. I haven't felt very good and all of my symptoms are on the list of possible withdrawal side effects like fatigue, headache, unsteady on my feel, and tremors. I have slept quite a bit, but now at day 8 I am feeling much better.
The exception to that was when Ben came to pick me up and we went to the Lobby Cafe for a coffee and pastry on Father's Day. I also had a nice conversation with Pat that day.
I walked to the dentist for a cleaning on Monday and ended up with an exam first and not enough time for the cleaning. The exam found that I need a new crown on the upper right next to the last molar. I cringed when I say the cost, but after giving it some thought and looking at my savings, I decided that I will go ahead and do it - just haven't scheduled it yet. The next morning, I got a notice on my door that told me an audit had been done and I had overpaid my rent and was due a credit of $844. This will come pretty close to covering the cost of my crown. I think the stars were aligned for me.
Joey and I have gotten some nice walks in the last few days, the temps have been in the 70s with low humidities and very nice blue skies with the exception of a much needed rainy day on Tuesday.
