Lazy day

My alarm went off when I was in the middle of a dream and I didn’t want to get up or shut it off. I reluctantly did so I didn’t hear the noise anymore. I stayed in bed and went back to sleep. I stayed in bed until 1 or so. I took my meds and went to see the puppy. She was in the crate and she came out to see me while I went to the bathroom. I had some coffee. It was hot in the kitchen and even hotter when I opened the back door for some air. I decided to make the blueberry lemon cake. I misjudged the bowl I used so it kind of overflowed when I poured the soda in the cake mix. And the kitchen got really hot. I was sweating so much. I took off my shirt. I so need to shower.

I tried to use the bathroom after the cake was done. I wanted to shave and brush my teeth but I didn’t have the energy. I needed to cool off. My niece made mac and cheese so I had that for lunch. My stomach didn’t hurt after I had the coffee or food. I am taking that as a good sign.

I just set my alarms for tomorrow so that I am awake for my appt with the new therapist. I like that I can either roll out of bed or not. I listened to the game until it ended in the 10^th inning. We lost 5-4. I kind of dozed between a few innings. They kept on talking about shit so it was hard to know where they were in the game. I am listening to my Brett Young Pandora station. It has so good music. I sing along to most of the songs. They are all my favorites. It’s mostly male artists on the station, with occasionally playing Lady A.

UGH I don’t want to shower but I stinkkk. I know I will probably feel better once I get all this sweat off me. It is going to be in the mid to high 90s the next few days. Supposed to be 97 on Wed and I have a dentist appt. I have a lot of appts this week. I am not going into Boston to see my DMH worker on Tues. It is just too hot. I have therapy with my current therapist Thurs. It might be the last time if I like the new one. I think I am just going to shower and then tomorrow after my appt, I will shave.

Other than clearing my recycle off my bed today, I have done nothing. I had two cups of coffee and a tuna sandwich. That upset my stomach for some reason. It finally went away around 7 so I could eat some dinner. I didn’t know what to have so I heated up some pancakes. I thought about making a cake but it was too late. I will try tomorrow as I need to use the blueberries before they go bad.

I had coffee with my sister. She was doing a million things. She was cooking and she washed her daughter’s hair. She dyed it so need to get the excess out. She make some artichoke bottoms that were nasty. Will never have them again. She gave me some zucchini so I will make it tomorrow. I might, if I have breadcrumbs, make the it with egg and breadcrumbs. I love it like that.

I wanted to shower today but I had no energy. I slept ok last night but it was hard getting up this morning. I didn’t get up till after 12. I have been playing my game all day. I rested while my stomach was upset. The puppy has been out with my niece all day. I miss her.

I got a voicemail from the new therapy place for my Monday appt. The website they gave me was wrong but I figured it out. I got to get up early. I am hoping I can have at least one cup of coffee before the appt so my brain is somewhat awake. I bought the single “Ordinary” by Alex Warren. Luke Combs had him on his show in Chicago and omg I fell in love with this song. I also bought Mary Chapin Carpenter’s new album and I absolutely love it. I think it is her best work in years. It makes me want to see her all the more. I think I am going to say fuck it and get tickets with my next check. I haven’t seen her in a while. She comes to Boston almost every year. Some times she goes to the Cape but I can’t see her then because I don’t have a car. I really love her. She is the only artist I have seen more than three times. I think I have seen her like six times or more. Sugarland comes in second. I’ve seen them four times.

I woke up a few minutes before my med alarm to pee. I took my meds and gave my shot of the new drug. I didn’t feel it. I had no side effects but I was still tired so went back to sleep. I woke up about 20 minutes before therapy. Shit. No time for coffee.

Therapy was a waste of time. We talked in circles, avoiding the fact I nearly attempted the other night. I told her how bad I was feeling. I felt like she wasn’t hearing me at all. We didn’t bring up the issues from last week. Monday I see a new therapist. I’m kind of nervous. It’s at dawn (9am). I am not sure if I will be able to have the appt on my laptop. I really don’t want to have it on my phone.

I took a nap after I had some coffee and shaved my head. I had cereal for dinner. I really wanted a salad but I don’t have it. I’ll pick some up on Monday. So far I am not having any side effects. Hope it stays that way.

I got out of the house today

After a disastrous night last night, my cousin took me out grocery shopping today. I didn’t have enough money to get all that I wanted but got what I could. I had to pay the copay for the weight loss drug because YAY it got approved on appeal. I start taking it tomorrow.

After the grocery store, I wanted a latte so I went to Starbucks before I went to the pharmacy. I had something to eat as I didn’t have breakfast. I didn’t sleep last night. I maybe got a few hours in the morning before my alarm went off. It was so hard getting up and I felt like complete shit. I was still feeling depressed. It was hot out but not humid, thank god. I was still sweating as I was walking to the bus stop. My legs felt wobbly as I haven’t been out of the house in more than a week. But it felt good to be out. If I didn’t feel so tired when I came home, I would have taken the puppy for a walk.

I have therapy tomorrow so I hope I get some sleep. The latte energized me and I forgot there was no game tonight so I had 6 shots of espresso for nothing. I will just read something. Or play my game. There is an FTM meeting tonight that I might attend. It’s on zoom. I have had a slight headache all day. It started last night after the argument. I felt so suicidal last night it was so hard not to attempt again. Like everything my sister ever said came out to me. She hasn’t spoken to anyone today. Good because I don’t want to talk to her anyways.

I made a burger for supper but I didn’t cook it enough and there was a bone in it. I didn’t finish it because even though I was squishing it, it didn’t lose shape. It was pretty thick and all that meat was making me feel sick. I had so many cramps today and now my side is hurting again. I don’t know if it is muscle or my gallbladder. I have to lay down for a bit until it stops hurting.
