Probably control issues too. They're worse though when he's on meds that increase his appetite because he wakes up in the middle of the night.<br /><br />Thanks for the study suggestions. I'm going to check with the University to see if they have any free or cheap study materials.<br /><br />Leslie (Recovering Noah) - I had a brief stint of modeling, but it wasn't professional it was just some local stuff. I did get to model some of my own designs once or twice. That was fun. I'd post a picture or two, but the network is down here so I can't access my photo storage.<br /><br />I didn't know about the Together for Adoption thing. Want to connect while you're here? <br /><br />Marymarythemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08205319256573120866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3852422397272068136.post-49830331928758286532010-07-26T06:45:02.095-05:002010-07-26T06:45:02.095-05:00Hey there!

And congrats on yours and Kitty's weight loss.<br /><br />April lost about 35 pounds this year and it was mostly because she started running in daily PE class (high school.) She loves her new body and tries to eat right to keep it that way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3852422397272068136.post-49777403014523789102010-07-23T22:19:04.040-05:002010-07-23T22:19:04.040-05:00Seems to me that perhaps the only way to deal with...Seems to me that perhaps the only way to deal with the cost of the lawsuit is to file for bankruptcy. But I'm no lawyer!<br /><br />As for Bear's sleep, it seems nearly impossible that one or more of his meds aren't interfereing with his ability to get REM sleep. But if he naturally has little REM, that might explain why he can't take ADHD meds, as I think they would have reduced his already too-little REM, and very-not-enough REM = psychosis.<br /><br />I wonder if he is so traumatized that he won't let himself go into REM? There are people, like me, who are often co-conscious with their dreams. If he is too, then he might be waking himself up on purpose (yet still be too sleepy to remember doing it). (Boy, don't I wish I could wake up on purpose! It is an amazingly physically draining process!)<br /><br />So wonderful that Kitty has said you are allowed to make food suggestions! <br /><br />Maybe Ponito's acne is coming from rubbing his face in dog fur?<br /><br />The 1st cake I made was for my brother's birthday. We all still know it as the puddle cake. (It sank, and the frosting was very liquid.) I just wonder how on earth the rack was a) put back crooked w/o a lot of effort and b) the rack wasn't pulled out to put the cake on it and c) it didn't spill out before it was cooked! That cake was MEANT to be slanted!<br /><br />Can you study for the exam before paying for it? That way you are doing something toward it without making the financial committment. And how long will you have to work at the job to pay for the license? (Don't answer out loud, but do the math.) Also, if you are studying, you could the guy that the only thing standing in the way of your having the license is the $, and you don't have the $ 'cause you don't have a job ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3852422397272068136.post-15459352105192458432010-07-23T18:42:48.049-05:002010-07-23T18:42:48.049-05:00Praying for you.
