[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
askye, that all sounds great.
I'm in NJ now, and remembered to bring my nebulizer and almost all of the parts. That "almost" is important. Gonna need to call around to medical supply stores to see if they've got the part I need tomorrow. (I've been using the nebulizer every night, and sometimes in the morning, and it helps a lot.)
Good news, askye!
Saw my meds manager today. I don't have to see her for a month (I was seeing her every 2 weeks). She noticed an improvement in my demeanor.
She wanted more blood work to see if the mega dose of vitamin D was working and also to recheck my lithium levels.
My blood pressure was the best it's been in - maybe a year. Not that it was that high before, round 120 over something. Today it was 112 over something. I never remember the bottom number.
And I was at my highest weight around November and I'm 17 lbs down from that.
However I did something to my shoulder Saturday, started bothering me on Sunday. I asked her about it and she said alternate heat and ice and otc pain relief.
Need to figure out something to do tomorrow to get out of the house. Should have saved the grocery store for tomorrow.
Other victories - had to call corporate HR and let them know I was returning to work. I had to repeat myself multiple times and I didn't undestand but instead of getting upset I just said "I want to make sure I understand " and repeated back what I thought she said.
Skills for the win!
Oh and this morning I was lying in bed and my mind drifted to the disastrous temp job that left me reeling and totally gutted my confidence. In the past when I've thought about that I've been upset and anxious and went spiralling into bad feelings and then suffering behaviors. Today I just kind of acknowledge it and that it sucked and thought about something else. I wasn't even aware of what I'd done until later.
I feel like I'm spamming about this but progress!
Your progress makes me gleeful, askye. Please continue to spam us!
Seriously! Vicarious victory for all!
askye, these posts are awesome. Please keep them coming, and go you
Today I paid the property tax, bought my nephew a birthday gift, packaged the gift, and then mailed the gift with 5 minutes to spare before the post office closed. Then, I picked up an already cooked chicken for dinner. That's enough adulting for one day, right?
That's way more adulting than I managed.
It's more than I've managed in over a week, trust me.
I'd call that a very productive day of adulting, sj. Don't worry about other days, the day you're in is the one that counts.
