Tired this afternoon. Nauseous, God knows the list of reasons I may have nausea is endless. I am finally starting to get a little color back to my skin after having iron infusions, and I have noticed my fingernails seem to be tearing/flaking/breaking off a bit less. I don’t always have to use a butter knife to open a can of soda or the tab on cat food cans, only about half the time, maybe a little less, instead of all the time. And thank God. That sort of brittle fingernail/cut cuticles (super slow to heal), tears into the quick under the fingernail is so painful. Sometimes I would wake at night because it hurt so much.
I’m still off and on am cold. I shouldn’t be in our house as we keep it 75 degrees, but it tends to be a little warmer because of being older and not having great insulation. Sometimes, I get hot flushes, and I hope that is from the iron and not hot flashes as I am a bit young for that. I am still waiting on an energy improvement. I have orders for a CBC around the 4th of July.
Mood as mixed as ever. I see the T tomorrow.
H got a bit of a job promotion. Still not a tenured professor as he’d wish though it seems he will achieve that probably within the next year or so. Right now, he also has duties to set up a new MakerSpace (equip it, train people, etc.). He is being given one of the keystone courses for graduation from his department to teach in the fall and the next spring, hopefully in the new MakerSpace. It probably means an inevitable move from La Porte (closer to Houston) to Beaumont as his commute is 1.5 hr each way, though IDK, if he worked in the Houston medical center, he’d probably have a similar commute time, just more stop and go traffic than he deals with right now. We’d have to be able to afford to move first, and just now, we cannot.
