Happy New Year

on January 27, 2013

Yep, I think September was my last post. Tut tut tut. So, what has happened since then. Lots I’d say.

Firstly, I have decided to go back to uni. UNI??!! OMG!! What was I thinking? But the closer it gets to start date, the more excited I get. Masters in Social Work at CSU by distance. Two years full time. Starting March 4th. I feel pretty ready, I even bought a new computer – a MAC!! And I love it, so hopefully that’ll help me enjoy the course. I have enrolled in two prep courses also- one on how to study online and one to freshen up on writing for university (cos it’s only been like, er, 20 years, aahhh!!). So I will be starting those next week. 

I turned the big 40. In Fiji with Stephen and Lilly. And that was an awesome birthday. Very relaxing and fun. And I don’t care about my age. Big deal. But ask me again in ten years 🙂

Lilly is now in pre-school, her last year before big school – another AAAAHHHHH!! She’s growing up. Christmas was lovely up in Queensland – I loved being around mum, and I think she appreciated it. Stress free Xmas day.

Seizures? Very regular at the moment – at least one a week. I’m fully back on Frisium so I don’t know if it’s that drug, or just the seizure type, but I often seem to be overly tired again after the seizure, especially if it’s the second or third one. Lots of sleeping. But other times I am straight back into the swing of things. These are the type I hope I have when i am studying. 

Last time I went to my neuro he had no suggestions for me. I think I am a lost cause in his mind. Until a new super drug comes out I will just have to deal with things the way the are. That sounds depressing but it’s OK. As i always say, it could be so much worse, I should be happy with my current situation. 🙂
