I'm doing OK, still very tired. Some aspects of the iron anemia are getting better, not fatigue though. And this, I don't know if it's to blame on forgetfulness caused by being mixed or anemia or meds or some combination of all three: Yesterday, I had to take one of my cats to the vet for her annual exam. Her appointment was in the morning, but not terribly early, around 9 or so. Once I was called back into the exam room with my cat, I realized I had forgotten to put on a bra. OMG, I never go out in public without a bra. Fortunately, I had on a black tank top, and I have very little up there, but my shirt was very fitted. I was so embarrassed. So forgetfulness, no matter what is causing it, is still there, particularly going into a room for some reason and forgetting it the instant I get into the room.
H and I have talked, and we've agreed it makes sense to move closer to his job. His commute is 1.5 hr each way, but it's not stop-and-go traffic; mostly it's open driving, so it's a lot of distance to cover, a lot of wear and tear on the car and him too, especially since he's gotten a promotion, and his old department chair just was made a dean, and H feels the new dean is going to pull for him to get a tenure faculty position. So we're starting to look at homes closer to his job. My daughter surprisingly has gotten on board with the idea of moving. There are a lot of aspects about our current home that I don't like, but the thought of moving and then what to do with this house - rent it, undersell it? - is a bit overwhelming. We've lived here 15 years, and we have accumulated a lot of stuff in that time.
I have an appointment with my T in about half an hour.
