for want of sleep!

I am having a lazy day. I woke up early again and didn’t like it. I was able to force myself into the shower last night so I didn’t have to take one today. Pain meds had kicked in enough that I was able to stand for 10 minutes and shower. It felt good and then I went to sleep afterwards. Only to wake up six hours later!

I have to get up early tomorrow morning to take my father to his doctor’s appointment. He isn’t feeling well apparently. I just hope he is taking his medication like he is supposed to or I will not be happy. Fricken appointment is at 8 so that means a long fricken day.

I am neither in a grumpy mood or depressed mood. I just want to sleep. It’s cold and cloudy out. I have to pick up my niece in about an hour from now. I am going to wear my AFO brace as I can’t risk not wearing it. My ankle really has been off the last few days. I still can’t turn it without pain. That is why I am hoping the AFO will keep it straight so I don’t have to worry about it so much.

I am really tired and want to take a nap. I would have fallen asleep earlier today but my damn phone was going off. I swear everyone and their mother decided to text and call me when I wanted to lie down for a nap. So then I shut the phone off. I still couldn’t sleep or I slept a little but it was a good sleep. I kept on hearing out for my mother because she said that she was going grocery shopping so I didn’t want to be in a deep sleep and she never went. I am so pissed. I could have slept a nice little nap but no. Not in the works and tomorrow I have to wake up at the god awful hour of 630 to take my sister to work and then take my father to his appointment. I am going to bed early tonight. No doubt about it. I will have to. This so sucks. I already feel like I can get some solid sleep now if the house would be quiet but no, my mother has to listen to the TV full blast or her telephone has to ring. I might be able to get some sleep later, when she goes downstairs to my sister’s for coffee. Funny how she can have coffee after six and it won’t affect her like it will me. I think that is why I am so sleepy today. I haven’t had anything caffeinated.

I didn’t have an appointment with my therapist today. I get a break from her until next week. I am glad we didn’t have an appointment because it would have disturbed my trying to take a nap more. I just had some Ramen noodles for my lunch. I really wanted to eat the last two donuts but I controlled myself. I really need to go get my powerade tomorrow. It is the last day of the sale.

I was really excited about reaching 18K yesterday on my blog so I wrote to my psychiatrist about it. She thought it was fantastic and that I should be proud of myself. Funny but I don’t feel that way. I feel a sense of accomplishment but not pride. I don’t know why that is.

any thoughts?
