Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I thought I was finally on that road, and hadn’t had a period since February. But the damn heparin they gave me in the hospital seems to have brought it back. Feh. Super light though so I’m telling myself it doesn’t really count.

I'm feeling better today. I really want to go volunteer tomorrow so I'll see how I feel this afternoon. Normally I'm not hit with this kind of fatigue and it's annoying.

Also the last time I talked to a dr about peri menopause and menopause she was like -- I have a patient who is 60 (or almost 60 I can't remember) who still has regular cycles... Which sounds like a horror story.

eesh ... I can't imagine still having regular cycles ... I was relieved when I hit menopause.

this seemed like a Buffista/Bitch thing.

I was late to get mine and they have been interrupted a lot so I suppose there are a few left. A great deal better, but not 100% yet. Enough so I can do my Zoom event today, which is good...being registered for a week feels like a long-range plan nowadays.

Well my super tiredness hasn't just been from my period. I haven't been taking my Vyvanse. I was accidentally taking some old duloxetine. I misplaced it Vyvanse several days ago and found a bottle behind the dresser. It rattled like capsules so I just assumed it was Vyvanse (I thought I had disposed of all my old meds).

This morning I was moving a pile of dirty laundry to a laundry basket snd found a medicine bottle...looked at it. Vyvanse. Huh I thought..I didn't realize I had extra somehow. Checked the bottle on the dresser. Duloxetine.

The capsules are different sizes but since I'm half asleep when I take the Vyvanse in the morning it didn't register.

awesome erika!

I had a great time volunteering today. I sorted through more yarn...so much yarn. A lot of vintage acrylic and wool but also A LOT of really really nice yarn.

And the store doesn't sell magazines they get donated they end up recycling them but I was talking to one of the founders about the type of art I do and after I was off and kind of shopping around he found me and said "I have some magazines you might like" and they were Art Journaling but also some other stuff he didn't think i'd like. I told him I'd pretty much take anything they had and ended up with a couple of boxes of really neat magazines.

Last month I was like "oh maybe I'm so tired because of my meds mix up and not because of my period" but this month I got my period and feel really really low energy. Not as bad as it was but still pretty yucky. I'm doing telehealth for therapy instead of driving up there and back.
