Sunday Blog 17072022

I didn’t think I would write today as I woke up really late. It is 90 degrees today. Not my favorite type of day. I am hiding in my room with the AC blowing. I had a notification about the Sox being on. Sale was pitching for 2/3 of an inning and then was taken out due to injury of his pinky. Poor guy can’t catch a break. He just came off the IL and now has to go back on it. No idea if it is broken but if it is, it might require surgery and his season is done. UGH. I am not happy. Right now the Sox are behind by one run thanks to Jeter Downs. He hit is first MLB HR against Gerritt Cole, Yanks. I love it.

I am listening to Exile by Taylor Swift on repeat. It was the first song that came on when I hit shuffle on folklore. I love this song so much. Because I changed phones, I lost my track record on my MP3 app. I am trying to build it up again. I had over 200 repeats of One Number Away by Luke Combs. I feel bad I lost that record. I also lost the record for Love Story (TV) repeats. I will just have to listen again, which I do not mind as I love the song.

I brushed my teeth. My mother was up so asked her what her sugar was. She hadn’t checked it. It was ok. I made an iced coffee and when I went back to my room, I checked the score. I wish I didn’t. score is now 11-2 Skanks. They just scored 8 runs in the bottom of the 4^th. Game over. Ugh

I had bought chicken the other day and made it today. I didn’t season it as I was cooking it. I then let it cool for a bit then cut it up. I put it in a bowl and added Italian dressing. It was good. I wanted my ranch dressing but I couldn’t find the bottle. It is so damn hot in the kitchen despite a cool breeze. It isn’t that humid thank god but still. I cannot tolerate heat. Now I know why the suicide rates are highest in August.

I need to do my med boxes for the week. I haven’t done it yet. It only takes a few minutes but takes some concentration. I have a lot of meds and wish I didn’t. I got to send a message to the surgeon asking him about pain control. I know it is early but I rather know now.

I got a headache. I just want to go back to sleep. I don’t have a lot of appointments this week. Just therapy and psychopharm. I took out the pain group as I know I won’t be attending. I also see the dietitian this week. I was going to meet up with a friend but because of train times, I couldn’t commit to it. We both have complicated schedules as we have multiple medical appointments each month. Coordinating times to meet is hard but not difficult.

I am going to try and write some in my memoir this week about the difficulties in getting gender affirming surgery. It’s been on my mind a lot. Might be a blog post that will be a chapter if it is long enough. I have been having trouble writing more than 500 words sometimes.

I plan on trying to start reading Trauma and Recovery today. Just hope it doesn’t trigger me.
