Saturday Blog 24082024

I had a decent sleep. I woke up in the middle of the night to pee and then had a hard time going back to sleep. I ended up taking a trazodone at like 4. I slept through most of the morning. I got up around noon. I took my meds and then had coffee. I also ate the leftover pancakes that I made. It was good. The pollen count is really high today and I have been sneezing. It’s also really hot today so I probably will be staying in my room.

I don’t have plans today. I hate that my bank doesn’t process deposits on Saturdays. I have to wait till Monday for my check. I will be late paying my cell bill. I hope I am not charged too much for being late. It’s the first time in a year I have been late. I got to remember to pay my insurance this week. I tried signing up for MassHealth but even though I have been approved, I am unable to sign up. They didn’t recognize my information. I probably need to call them.

I brushed my teeth and then shaved my head after the coffee. I only had one cup so far because my tooth is bothering me. I might have to switch to iced coffee. Only thing that sucks is that I chug it and then need another cup. It just tastes so good.

I am going to try and read chapter 3 of my textbook sometime today. Sox have an early evening game so I might read after or if they bomb again. Last night was horrendous. I stopped listening when the game was 7-1. Final score was 12-2 Dbacks. Pitching just fell apart. Today’s pitcher has lost his last like 5 starts so I am not hopeful for a win, unless Dback pitching is terrible.

Tomorrow starts a busy week. I have to get up at like 0730. I don’t think I have gotten up that early on a Sunday since I was going to church in my teens. I also need to get up early Mon. Those are the only days I need to be up before 9. I signed up to get my flu and covid vaccine at the pharmacy. The updated Covid vaccine starts on the 6^th. I won’t have too much of a break this week until Friday. I still don’t know if we are doing anything for my cousin’s birthday. I am wicked excited that I will be going to a game on Tues. I am looking forward to have a few hotdogs. I don’t know who the 4^th person is going to be. I think it is one of my sister’s friends but I am not sure. That is the highlight of my week!

A car alarm went off sometime while I was sleeping. It woke me up and I swear I wanted a bazooka to blow the car up. It went off for a solid five minutes or more. I couldn’t go back to sleep. I finally gave up around four. I read my textbook. I am so freaked out because there were easily more than 50 terms throughout the chapter. It listed every single structure of the brain, including the blood vessels. That is a whole lot of information to take in. What sucks is that at the end of the chapter, there are no review questions. I think you need to go on the book’s website. I then went to sleep, trying to remember stuff I read. I had taken my meds as it was nearly 6am. I didn’t get up till my antibiotics alarm went off.

I made pancakes and then got a huge fucking headache. I messaged my neuro about it as nearly every day I am getting either a headache or a migraine. The new migraine med isn’t effective. She is going to start me on topamax. I rested for a bit. Not sure if I slept. I took some ibuprofen and tylenol. I feel like I’ve been living off of ibuprofen for two weeks now. Luckily, it isn’t bothering my stomach. I do try to make sure I have eaten before taking it.

I still got a slight headache. I don’t think I’ll be listening to the game tonight. My chest has been flared up for most of the day. I haven’t been taking the muscle relaxant for it. I have been taking so many meds the past two weeks that I am getting fed up. I think I’ve taken nearly all my PRNs during this time. It’s been difficult and taking these antibiotics around the clock has really stressed me out. I got one more day of this bullshit.

I got a letter from my internet provider saying my password has been changed. If I didn’t change it, it said to call the number. I checked my account and sure enough I couldn’t log on. I changed the password and then called the number. I got transferred to the fraud dept where the idiot told me to disregard the letter as I changed my password. Such a waste of time.

Just a day of pain

I was dreaming something when my med alarm to remind to take my antibiotic went off. I took it and had to use the bathroom so did. The dream was still on my mind when I fell back asleep. I kept dreaming I had to go to the lab and each time I got close, something made the journey longer, either a closed elevator or someone started talking to me. I was walking all over the hospital and felt like I was going in circles. Then I came home for lunch as it was just a few blocks to my house (reality, the hospital is 5 miles away from me). I made something to eat and ate my glasses. My mother needed something so I gave it to her then realized I switched something so had to redo it. Then I went back to the hospital. Such a weird dream.

Luckily, I didn’t wake up with a migraine. I was just wicked tired. I forced myself to get up after the last alarm went off for the antibiotic again. I took my meds and then made some coffee. I didn’t eat anything. My head was starting to hurt. My tooth also was hurting so I took some ibuprofen. I feel like I have been living off them the past two weeks. I had an appointment with the social worker today. It went well. By then the headache and tooth had calmed down. I made a pot pie for lunch. I also showered and shaved before the appointment. I made another cup of coffee while waiting for the pot pie to heat up. It was good. I think the smaller pies have more chicken in them than the larger ones.

As I was eating, my tooth flared up because of the hot food. I need to get these teeth out so I won’t be in pain. I am stressing out over my finances for next week. I have to get my suit and groceries. I don’t know if I can do both. I also have a meal thing that I ordered and it is too late to cancel it. I was quoted one price but the app is telling me a different one. No matter as I don’t have the funds right now anyway. Not sure if my check will be deposited tomorrow or Monday. I got a text message from my pharmacy saying my meds were ready. This is why I hate autorefills. I don’t get paid till next week and one script I need to call about because they refilled the wrong one. I canceled the order but I don’t know if I can order the right one.

I am tired despite sleeping through most of the night. It kept on being interrupted at 9 when my med alarm kept going off. Today is a high pollen count and my sinuses are killing me. I sneezed quite a few times this morning. I keep having to clear my throat, which is now irritated. It’s cool out and not humid. It has been in the high 60s most of the week. I will take it. I haven’t run my AC all week, which is nice.

I have two days of antibiotics left. I hate having to take it multiple times a day. It sucks. I am busy next week so I won’t be able to contact the dental surgeon for my teeth. I don’t know when I will get around to it. Maybe next month when my finances look a little better. I wish I could have a part-time job. Then I wouldn’t have to worry about money and be broke after two weeks.
