No Prozac and a Fun Night

So I was on Prozac for 2 days but it caused incessant ringing in my ears. I haven't taken it for the last 2 days and the ringing has stopped so I guess Prozac is not the short term answer or any answer. I have been praying a lot lately and I just feel I need to read the book Lou got me and decide from there what I want to do.
The decongestant I am taking causes me to be super tired but the pressure in my ear is nearly gone so I guess it's worth it. I missed out on bloggers bookclub last night because I didn't feel it would be safe for me to drive all the way to Salt Lake with how drowsy I felt ( stories from Jessie and drowsy driving have really made me more weary of it). I did however have a wonderful evening. I went and saw Dan in Real Life at the dollar theater with my good friend Robin. I just love hanging out with Robin, she is always so happy and nice and it's so easy to talk with her. I really loved the movie. It's a good clean movie (for the most part) that I could watch over and over. My favorite part of the night however was going to Starbuck's afterwards where Robin treated me to a peppermint hot chocolate. We talked for nearly 2 hours. It was so nice. I have been realizing lately the importance of good girl friends. I really go through stages with that. Just today Alyssa came over so the kids could play and again it was so nice to talk to someone who knows you so well and is such a good friend. I don't know why I choose to isolate myself because friends truly are important. Ok not that I isolate myself but isolate my feelings. I"m grateful for the last 2 days so I could learn that lesson again for the umpteenth time in my life.

I'm so glad we got together last night! As I was driving home from dropping you off last night, I was thinking to myself, 'I really needed that right now, I've been feeling so down this week. I'm so glad that we went to the movie, and just had a chance to talk for a while.'

So thanks for helping me come out of my 'isolation' too - it was so refreshing. (:

I loved Dan in Real Life. It's definitely one I'll buy to add to my collection.

I know what you mean about spending time with girlfriends. I went to my ward book club this week, a total wreck from having a hard day with my kids. I came back rejuvenated and happy. The power of girlfriends is magic.

I too am grateful for good girlfriends...you included! Thank you so much for the cute nursing cover. I will definitely be putting it to good use. Nursing is an adjustment to get used to in general without having to worry about holding a blanket up with my hand or teeth! (:

Glad you have good girlfriends there to help you out as well. I haven't seen that movie, but would like to soon. Love you!

I love Dan in Real Life! My favorite part was when his daughter calls him a murderer of love. Ha! I'm glad you doing a bit better and I agree, good friends are great!
