Marathon Monday 2024

Marathon Monday 2024

Today is the Boston Marathon. My friend from my hometown is running his 26th consecutive marathon. I haven’t seen him post his results yet. He should be done by now. I love seeing him run. It is also the day we remember the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing from 2013. Hope they continue to rest in peace.

I canceled my therapy appointment. I didn’t feel like going and there was nothing I wanted to talk about. I texted her for a time next week as the rest of my week is pretty busy but she hasn’t texted me back yet. There is a high pollen count today and I want to open the window in my room but I don’t want to sneeze my head off. I already have been sneezing since early this morning. I had a hard time getting to sleep last night. I kept feeling hot and cold. Today is in the 70s and is so nice out. I took a shower at my sister’s and I forgot what water pressure felt like. My shower is just a trickle of water compared to hers. It was a nice shower. I felt weak and thought my foot would act up but it didn’t. My back did though. It still is cramping up. I sweat a lot afterwards and had to put on a shirt as I was just dripping. I am wearing my new PJs but they are much too warm for this weather. I don’t think I will sleep with them on. I might change to shorts.

I wanted to go to the pharmacy to get my meds but I never did. I will tomorrow after class. Maybe they will have my favorite Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. I managed to finish chapter 8 and will start chapter 9 after this blog. I finished the read of my book edits. I have to organize the document a bit. I won’t be able to work on it until Saturday. I have given myself that day to work on my book and the rest of the time to focus on school reading. My psych professor got back to me about the final. It is going to be cumulative. I hate that.

I haven’t eaten a meal today. I have been wanting to eat one of my microwave dinners but the freezer has been blocked by the vanity my brother in law is working on. I don’t want to order food as I don’t really know what I want to eat. My back is still cramping from the shower. I have been trying to drink fluids but it has been a challenge. I have had three cups of coffee today and that really has been my only fluid intake so far. Some days I can drink without a problem and other days, it is really hard.

any thoughts?
