szr in the waffe house....

Wed, 08/23/2006 - 21:53
i tell ya, it's been awhile since i've about hit the floor. for the past few days, i've been doing everything i can to get govt. asssistance; insurance and all, so i can get a doctor. i guess today i was so excited and overwhelmed by being approved for medicaid,and other assistance, i did'nt know what to do. lol so, my husband wanted to take me out to eat. so, we're in th waffle house, and i find myself staring into space, and feeling very 'fuzzy'. my eyes are closing and opening, yet can't control it, and i slowly go down and down. my husband goes beside me and tries to keep my alert, i guess. man! i don't know what the heck happened, but i guess just being overwhelmed with joy; feeling as though i'm finally contributing to something-and that I CAN! i usually feel like i'm just no good to anyone, and then today, being able to get the help that i need, not to mention the help i can provide for my family too. this szr i had, i remembered some of what happened, but not all of it. man-did i ever have a headache when i was over it. i don't know what's worse-the actual szr, or the after affects of having a headache and feeling VERY incoherent. lol
