Fingers crossed for new therapist, sj. That would be ideal.
askye, glad your grandma's doing all right.
meara, dating is the most frustrating thing in the world.
My dang blood pressure has gone back up, after being fairly normal for months. My eating habits haven't gotten worse, maybe even a little better, so the only culprits I can find are either that I haven't gone to the gym in two weeks, and possibly the inordinate amount of stress I've been under at work in the same last two weeks. Alas, I don't have any more Valium, because my doctor thinks a person with sleep apnea shouldn't have relaxants because I might take them at night and DIE. I assured him I wasn't that dumb, he was unconvinced. So I don't have anything "industrial strength" to help me calm down when things get really stressful. Which is okay, I'll deal, but I would like to still have that tool in my toolbox.
Maybe she is just thinking about what to say, meara. still, argh.
I did too much walking today, and my ankle was swollen, and then I accidentally kicked myself right in the swollen part when I was taking my shoes off, and ow, and sleep is just not happening tonight. I'm trying to work out whether I can do enough class prep tomorrow at home, if I go to my office to make copies and film some online class videos over the weekend.
Ow ow ow. I hope tomorrow sorts itself out, Hil.
Just took four Advil and two Tylenol. I hope I can sleep soon. I shouldn't have done all that walking today.
I hope you were able to get good restorative sleep, Hil.
Hil, I know the feeling. Feel better.
I have an appointment with the new therapist on the 30th. TCG's stepmother is going to babysit. I only told her I have an appointment.
Working in the semicolon mines.
I've been mostly sleeping, though I should be getting stuff done. I need to call the rheumatologist's office again, and I need to call the pharmacy because (for at least the fourth time) they gave me only 30 pills in a prescription that called for 60, and I need to finish setting up the pages for the online course I'm teaching, and start making slides for the videos.
