Saturday Blog 31
I was able to sleep eight hours but it was broken in four hour increments. I didn’t go to sleep till around 0400 this morning. I have no reason why I was up so late other than being hypo. I wrote to my psychiatrist telling her the difficulties I was having. As my closing statement, I told her I was going to Hogwarts. I thought that was really funny. I really didn’t. I went to Grimmauld Place, where Harry is at the moment in “Order of the Phoenix”. Luckily, reading caused my brain to slow down enough to get some sleep. I don’t usually mind staying up late but last night was bad. I was so hyper I didn’t think I was going to get to sleep at all. I think I wrote a blog. I did a lot of writing in my journal and with my psychiatrist so I am sure I blogged about my midnight adventures.
Other than eating, I haven’t done anything else. I just finished a cup of tea. I am out of cream so I can’t have coffee. I will be glad when I get paid next week and can place my shopping order. I have ordered pumpkin puree so I can make pumpkin cupcakes. It’s really muggy and I don’t know if that is what the week calls for. I know we are supposed to have rain the next few days but I don’t know if it’s going to be muggy. It’s supposed to be in the 70s, which isn’t bad if it’s dry and comfortable. It’s really hot in the house. I really don’t know how my mother can stand it. I wish she would get a wall unit AC but nope. I know the heat isn’t good for her diabetes and joints but what do I know according to her. Whatever, I will just freeze in my room.
Because my mother is in the living room, I am unable to watch my TV shows. I thought I could sneak one in but she is lying on the couch, taking a nap. Oh well. Maybe I will tomorrow morning when she is out of the house. I have no plans today other than reading Harry and possibly listening to the game tonight. If I don’t listen, I usually keep track through the internet and/or Twitter. I don’t know what the plan is for dinner. Probably a free for all. I have been eating crackers with peanut butter so I am full right now. My mother will probably make some kind of pasta.
I might take another nap. I am having a hard time concentrating and I am sleepy. I don’t think the cup of tea I had had enough caffeine in it to keep me awake. I’m not feeling depressed or anything. I just feel really tired. Being up half the night will do that to you. That is the downside of staying awake all night. I just hope I don’t catch my second wind later on tonight. That will suck to have another night of staying awake till 0400.
Wow…so basically you have unlimited free therapy. That’s kind of amazing and obviously very rare. I hope you realize how lucky you are…both that you have that kind of resource and that your therapist is willing to provide it. Good luck to you.

I have medicare and BCBS, they cancel out the copay I would have to pay.

I hope this isn’t offensive but I’m curious about something — you often write about how you aren’t able to afford basic groceries, but you are able to go to therapy sometimes 3x a week. How can you afford that? I have a decent job and struggle to pay her fee at once a week.
