| I am finally starting to feel better, thank goodness. If you couldn’t tell from the onslaught of blog posts tonight, I’m actually getting some energy back! And that’s surprising because I have started my new meds (Zonisamide) and the bottle says it will make me sleepy. Maybe when I go up to the full dosage. The neurologist said to just take one pill for a few days and then go up to two. I have my one HUGE final next Wednesday so I think I will wait until after that is over to go up (or maybe until after the 19th, when my final paper is due). My arms are still hurting a lot and my hip keeps tingling (that is the weirdest feeling!!!) but I’m making it through. So for now I will just be thankful for some energy and that I’m not curled up on the couch in a ball of pain like I was this time last year heading into finals. I did take a nap at lunch today but I think that was more because I’ve been so sick with my head/nose/throat than because of the neuropathy. So far it really hasn’t come back full blast the way past “relapses” had. Knock on wood!

I love, love, love him. He was pulling his pants up after using the bathroom and going to wash his hands. He’d left the pants down a bit and I said, “Baby, I can see part of your bum.” He looked over at me, smirked and pulled his pants down further, “Well now you can see it all.” ROFL. He’s such a ham! Then a little while later he came into the bathroom as I was getting up and he smacked me on the butt. Yes, he has picked up 
, I started singing, “You Are My Sunshine.” He decided to squeeze my face in a variety of ways to make the sound come out funny. Then he started laughing so hard he couldn’t breathe. When he caught his breath, he softly touched my cheek and said, “Oh Mommy, you make me laugh so hard! I love you.” My heart melted.
I told him I had to work and he said, “Just tell your boss that you are taking a day off to be with your boy.” Awww. I explained that it was work for school but he was stuck on the job theme. He said, “Mommy, I wish you could get a job where you can stay home all day and make lots of money for Nintendo games.” I said, “Oh honey, if you find me one, you just let me know.” He said, “Yeah, cause then you could come to my school and see me every day and you would know when I get a star!”
