Lazy Sunday afternoon

I have just been relaxing today. I actually woke up at eight this morning, but I was so cozy I fell back asleep and didn’t wake back up until one this afternoon! I guess I was tired. I have been busier than normal the last few days. That has actually been good for me. I …

Stupid month!

Due to a bunch of bureaucratic crap and the fact that my therapist’s office is merging with the local community mental health agency, (something that I am just thrilled about), I don’t get to see my therapist for three more weeks. I’m lucky I get to see her at all really. It could have ended …

One paper, written!

I finally sat down and wrote my paper. Or finished it I guess since I started it yesterday. I did a bunch of editing on what I had started though, so it felt like I wrote the whole thing. Either way, it’s done. Yay! I still have to submit it, but I will read it …

Waking up in pain

I can’t sleep because I keep waking up in tremendous pain. This sucks. I’m really trying to not let it get to my mood, but it’s very difficult. It’s especially challenging because I have so many things that I need to do and the pain is really distracting. I did get my paper started last …

I cleaned something!

Very literally I scrubbed the toilet and took out the trash in the bathroom. I also did a load of laundry. Considering how much my shoulder hurts, that’s about all I could do, but it made me feel better about that space. It’s like a little achievement, but it meant a lot. I’ve been staring …

Let me tell you…

Shoulder pain is no joke. I have some kind of calcific tendinopathy of my shoulder. Apparently it’s this thing that can come on spontaneously and WOW does it hurt. I went to the ER on Monday morning because I couldn’t take the pain and they diagnosed it with an x-ray. It was a good learning …

Having a day…

I woke up today full of plans. I was going to clean the bathroom and do some self care. Instead, I went back to sleep for seven hours. When I woke up this evening, I realized I had slept on my right side really uncomfortably and done something awful to my shoulder and arm. It’s …

You guys, I did it!!!

I sat in class for four hours and it was okay! I even did the homework I was supposed to do ahead of time. All of the reading and the evaluation thing. Whew! I did it! I was so nervous not knowing what to expect. It went okay though. It wasn’t awesome, but it was …

So freaked out!!!!!!

My first class for my grad program is tonight. I’m completely freaking out. I did all the homework and the readings, but I’m worried that I am going to mess up somehow. I don’t know. I just…. I really want to do well. We had to do this really intense evaluation thing beforehand. It was …

Tired of tired

I’m so tired of being tired. I don’t know what’s wrong. I keep running this really low grade temp and just feeling gross. The headaches finally went away, but I just don’t feel well. I scheduled another covid test for tomorrow because I did sit in an ER with my friend for three days waiting …
