Saturday Blog 25042026

I did nothing but sleep today. I woke up in the middle of the night. I don’t remember if I had to pee or if I just woke up. I heard my sister get up. It was like 3am. She was going to Florida for the next couple of days. I guess she had to clean the kitchen before she left because things were away when I got up around noon. I had my coffee but didn’t eat anything. I wasn’t hungry. I just felt tired. I went to lay with Honey and nearly fell asleep. I went up to my room and took a nap. I had some weird dreams that gave me a headache, which didn’t help feeling tired.

My brother in law made dinner and it was salty as hell. He overuses salt in everything he makes. I drank a lot of water.

Sox won and despite this, they went on a firing spree after the game. Luckily, my husband didn’t get canned. He was reassigned, to what, I don’t know yet. They have been playing so crappy lately but to fire half the staff in the middle of a series sucks.

I need to read my articles that I downloaded for my paper. I read one of them last night and learned that major depressive disorder and amyloid beta are related. The exact mechanism isn’t understood but there is a correlation. I guess this is why I feel slow sometimes, like my brain is just having trouble firing neurons. There wasn’t a lot written about it, though. I need to do more research on it. I am hoping to read at least one more article tonight and then get started on the paper tomorrow. I still haven’t thought about my question to propose.

I registered for a one credit course. It is in the school of counseling psychology. Something to do with work/life balance. It is about 50 mins on a Monday. I also have class on Mon so I will be on campus. I need to buy snacks to take with me. I just keep forgetting to buy them. I will have my surgery in a month. The only trouble I foresee is moving the TV we have that is blocking the stairs so the dog doesn’t come upstairs. Sometimes she likes to do her business up there so we need to block it off. I might have trouble moving it. It is not heavy but the motion to move it might cause me pain. I need to tell the surgeon that I want to stay on the pain med I am taking now and not be on another one during recovery. The pharmacy might give me trouble if I am on two different opioids. I am also going to tell my pcp as well so she is on board with it. Besides, it works better for me than something else.

any thoughts?
